When it comes to the "bigger than hip hop" title Diddy>>>>>>>>>>Jay-Z

[Already Home_17]

no one artist is bigger than the entire genre

 

[stealthbomber]

true dat. but jay-z was the first rapper to become bigger than hip hop. diddys a suit who rapped to get his label on the map. he never was a true rapper like jay or big so its you cant really compare them.

I've never seen Diddy on the Daily Show...
/thread...

i've never seen jay in a movie that actually released in theaters
open thread back up, sir

When I think of Diddy, I think of screwing over every one of your last artists of the last 20 years, closest faggotry, ghost writing, shiny suits, shitty pop groups, and not having any real talent but still manages to hold himself up for two decades.

I give props :tu

hands down
when you think of Diddy you think of Ciroc, Sean John, his perfume and cologne and all that
when you think of Jay you might think of Rocawear, 40/40 clubs, the nets, etc., etc
but it all comes back to rapper
how can Jay be bigger than the genre when he's still an artist?

That's a pretty damn good question...let's ask Jayhova's Witnesses...

Lol Diddy still argues with peasants.

Not that that has anything to do with shit.

The whole "bigger than Hip Hop" shtick is just another form of narcissism in the culture and it really holds no power for the actual artist...it's like the artist that wants to hold that title trying to be "separate" from Hip Hop due to the bank account and his life being viewed throughout the mainstream 24/7 but really is not, so BackInWhite has a point.

man Diddy threw in the towel when it comes to the music business. So i guess u re right cuz Diddy is really no longer involved in music. He s a liquor salesman

diddy has justins, jay has 40/40
diddy promotes ciroc, jay promotes ace of spades

and etc.

jay still drops albums
jay still raps
jay is an artist
when people say jay-z they say clothing line, label, club, basketball team, and cologne owner and multiplatinum ARTIST
that nigga is a rapper
when you get past all the shit he owns and all he has accrued that nigga is still at the core a rapper

True..but you know what..that "bigger than Hip Hop" bullshit is annoying...but only faggots like Steve Stoute uses it for an excuse when Wayne was coming at Jay's neck..

Funny thing about what you said...any artist, with the right connections of course, could do the same shit.
