"See I had the beat for like 2 years just sittin around, it was supposed to be for my best of Drag-On compilation.

Then B Hop heard it...B Hop gave it to Carlene...Carlene gave it to Ty Ty, who gave it to Lenny S...who gave it to OG Juan...who gave it to Jay...

Like 3 minutes later the whole song, chorus, and adlibs was done...i was like 'he ain't write it down??' They said NAHHHH he dont write his raps!! We just looked at each other like, Yo... He dont write his raps!"

so jay gon buy some dope for a retarded 17 year old?!

No, it was metaphor that would appeal to Jays younger listeners...the kids that idolise Chief Keefs..

Its how you stay relevant when you old and seasoned like jay..

 
Jay did catch feelings about the ownership stake percent being exposed. It's funny because he had the average fan believing he owned a lot more.

If he's really some big baller like he says he is let me see him put up some real money like 50 million for Barclays. That shouldnt be nothing to him.

lol at 'I guess nothin' rhymes with treasury'

Lol His reaction was exactly as it should be. He obvioulsy 'gets it'.

'Its a song, Donovan'= the most professional use of 'No fuks given' of all time

What Jay-Z does with his money shouldnt matter to you personally.

I don't care but it's his marketing tool to sell records. It's what his image is built off. He caught feelings because he misled the fans and when the truth was put on front street and he got clowned he caught feelings and called fans dweebs for it. Pretty petty if you ask me.

So you're saying he is getting that Lil Wayne from Birdman percentage?

I don't know nothing about Birdman or Wayne's percentage of whatever you're talking about because they don't boast about it on every track. All I know is in the NBA where teams are sold for more than 600 mill sometimes, a $350,000 investment is minuscule to the way they hyped it up. In true Hov form, he couldn't help but to talk about his newest business ventures all on his song.
 
Even tho he only owns -.05 percent, if not for Jay z and his image team in Brooklyn wouldn't be trendy, hip, etc. Its fair to say there's a possibility that team does not move to Brooklyn w/ out him.

People are fickle, and they loked at it as the new, trendy, Jay Z team...and Prokorov n them WISELY never said shyt about his share until after it all went down...

Imo Jay bailed too early. Team ownership aint no clothing line Lol 15-20 years who knows, coulda made it to majority owner. But very few people can think w/ that type of patience.

Fans are fickle but so is Jay-z rap lyrics

First off, he spoke on a detailed convo he had with the president only for the white house to say that never happened. Secondly, when he says stuff like he can park in his own arena but is only 0.5% partner of that arena one can only assume he took a indirect L.

He did all that marketing for the NETS and says he woulda done it for free lol. Jay-z trying to mask his losses
 
I told you niggas before..

I kept telling y'all how fake titles are giving every day in the entertainment business, but also in the real world at times. Y'all gotta understand that they know entertainers have the youth's ears so they usally use them or cut them a check to help them promote things. Especially with hip-hop since hip-hop is an urban artform and anything urban usually has a div on what's hip or not. So they use entertainers to help them influence younger people and sometimes even older people with clothing brands, politics and so on and in turn rappers gets whatever they negotiate for, back.

I told you niggas before but some niggas just wanted to argue. When they first announced his shares who here remember my post?

Keep getting fooled. Still a fan of Jay-Z's music tho and the lyrics was nice, but the beat was mediocre.

I wanna know how can you address something without the perceived notion of catching feelings because y'all niggas say that a lot about anything.

Maybe they expected Jigg to ignore the 'haters' .. .

I don't care either way, if he can show an aggressive and laid back flow like this on his next album, then I'd be pleased
