My god...yall hoe niggas need to let it go. Jay-Z is rich. You're not. Strong likelihood you wont be. You dont know him. He doesnt know you. He's his own man. He had to leave some niggas to get to where he's at. He came from a pissy apartment in Marcy to a Penthouse Suite overlooking Central Park. That's inspiring. No matter how many threads yall make up, no matter how many times yall say how Jay is no longer respected, no matter how many posts yall make about sh*t that happened 5 years ago, nothing will change. LET IT GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I read the Book. Its as inspiring as Russell's "Do You". I love inspirational books from urban business leaders. Its easier to connect with that story of triumph rather than a story from Dr. Phil. In Decoded, he doesn't go into some wild gangsta story about taking over cities & states. Its just a story of a kid from Brooklyn falling in love with Rap ----> Going out of state to Trenton, Virginia & Washington, DC flipping work (which isn't that hard to believe) ---> Coming back & forth to NYC to meet Dame ---> Starting Rocafella Records ---> Bonding with Big ---> Dealing with Success when you still feel like the Broke muthafucka from Marcy inside.

Read the book before you hate.

Great post, I feel the same way. It's inspiring seeing any young Black man go from the hood to being more or less on top of the world. Jay-Z's talent makes me fascinated in any view he might have on life.

lol fuck outta here that nigga was not taking over 3 cities in 3 different states

smh u jay stans think that nigga was super nigga

What i dont understand is why you and other niggas are under the impression that you have to take over a city in order to be a small time hustler. That just aint true. You think every nigga standin on the corner is some kind of kingpin with mafia connections? Nah homie, its nothin like that. There are thousands of small time hustlers out there. Its more than conceivable that he traveled out of state to put in a little work.

There are three niggas that I cop weed from within 5 blocks of my house. You think all of them are "takin over the city" LOL

im done trying 2 explain 2 these retards what it's gonna take for a out of town nigga 2 eat in someone else hood that they control

Dehaven admitted Jay-Z used to hustle. He never denied Jay-Z hustled.....what's the problem homeboy? Niggas from NYC travel all over the nation to hustle, I know people who travelled to Vegas to sell near a strip, stop acting like shit is impossible to believe.

Do you even know any hustlers? I doubt it right now, you don't sound like someone who knows the streets well. Either that or you been in the suburbs your whole life.

I know, it's sad how sheltered some people are out there. It doesn't take a Tony Soprano or Frank Lucas to set up shop somewhere, anyone can do it with some will and an area where not many people are around.

Jay-Z also made clear in the book he sold some shit near a dead end street in Trenton, and he sold some other shit in Maryland, where HE ALREADY KNEW PEOPLE.

I'm starting to question if any of the people dissing Jay here have even read the fucking book???!!!!!!!

I don't live on a shit hole block in the Bronx, I live in a nice, comfortable area on Sheridan Ave, 170th street.

But anyway, not every area is hard like the Bronx, and not every area in the Bronx is hard......pay attention to what I just said and there goes your answer.

Read this thread and:

Who the fuk is Sniperk???

Why you so aggy? Is that you in your avi.? smh

Jay-Z was a youth at the time crack was introduced to NY, and he sold drugs Pardon me if i dont find this shyt far fetched.

I suggest yall read Queens Reigns Supreme if you havent already. Great book that puts NY in the 80's in perspective. Crack was cheap. Nggas moms was sellin crack. SMH @ people thinkin jay z was even sayin he was doin somethin no one else was. Russel Simmons sold...Run DMC sold...cmon man.

There would be 4 niggas I could cop weed from LOL

To keep it all they way real...the only niggas that really get killed over drugs are the ones in it really deep or the ones that floss too much. The ones with the major connects that are buyin shit in bulk...pounds...kilos...in other words, the major suppliers and distributors, or the lower level hustlers with unusually generous connects. Small time hustlers dont have too much beef among each other cuz none of them are makin enough money where they could take a really significant hit in profit to where they couldnt eat, and most of them have their own set of people who cop from them.

Stop tryna make it seem like every nigga sellin drugs is a hardcore killer or mob boss.
