    young forever

  6. Truth_City says:

    Dudes commenting on another guys looks…..wow
    Hov >>>> G.O.A.T.

  7. Theloneus says:

    Ayo! Young Hov! As much as RR staff love ya grind and shit, your ass better cough up the cash if you want the documentary to be advertised on the site. Wa-BAM!

  8. jitty says:

    RAPRADAR SHUD RENAME TO THISISJAYZ.COM! THISISJAYZ.COM!

  9. blaqscorpio says:

    Everybody on here commenting on dude’s looks better be FEMALE! Or else…

  10. tre says:

    Damn Be was a classic album. We need more Kanye & Common.

  11. @ SHAWN COREY CARTER

    UGLY CAMEL ASS NIGGA!!! YOU GOT THE MONEY AND A DECENT CATALOG, REST IN PEACE KNOWING YOU WILL NEVER BE BETTER THAN TUPAC. WITH THAT BEING SAID HAVE A CHILD, AND BE FATHER ALREADY!!!!

    FUCK THE JUDAS OF THE WORLD!!!!

  12. james bond says:

    ^nigga seem sterilized….fuck outta here @ being witta chick 7 years and not havin’ no kids, with marriage in play. This dude Jigga is a fail in that category.

    Other than that, Jay always try to make seem like he’s just that witty. Nigga get the fuck back, you WRITE!!!!, like Kane said in his interview “All the greatest MC’s wrote their rhymes”…and jay, wayne, biggie, etc. are no exception. (wayne excluded as a great). I guess the same applies when a nobody kicks a freestyle “yada yada yada yada”, “nigga that shit light-work”, “easy”, etc. Nigga write regardless of the situation, and spit it like it’s off the dome, but don’t front, you write homie. You wrote all the classics, no off the dome.
    According to Kane:
    “Freestyle means a rap, that’s free of style”, citing “No 1 subject is covered, you can throw everything in”
    Wit’ that words from the man Kane himself….Jay lacks credibility on the songwriting format…heck, I don’t believe he WRITES/FORMS/DESIGN “ANY” of his songs. Money can buy you that.

  13. ChupaSauce says:

    Ahhh shit..Dude is looking old in the face. Has is it been that long already? Damn…

  14. fgh says:

    u cant look like ur 25 for the rrest of ur life…I WANNA SEE LIL WAYNE AT 40 AND SEE WHAT U GUYS SAY ABOUT THAT..(disturbing)

  15. ChupaSauce says:

    If you are talking to me i’m a female and i’m just sayin’.

  16. concerned fan says:

    u gon be 40 one day and i hope u get shitted on real talk

  17. mac WEASEL says:

    Know whats funny? Rap Radar = 10000 Jay-Z posts….and Hov hasn’t even put out music in that time, LOL….dear RR music drops daily, concentrate on that.

  18. Ol Head says:

    Niggas hate on Young so bad lol!!!!

  19. Sho Nuff says:

    LMAO!!!! Niggas commenting on that mans looks and lips and age and potentcy!! Brunch of fuckin fruitcakes and weirdos!! This internet is a crazy thing, they shouldve never gave u niggas keyboards!

  20. Rachael5922 says:

    everyone seems to find the beat first and then write. its like the common thread among an artists clothes.

  21. NICKEY NEGRITO says:

    word commenting on a dude looks. so if jay was the most handsome man in the world yall fags would say “damn jay fine!”

  22. az5lyrics says:

    HOV THE G.O.A.T

  23. Nathaniel says:

    @fgh

    damn…wayne @ 40. that’s gonna be a scary site. real talk. that young lifestyle catches up with u when you’re old.

    anyway, can’t wait for the documentary. sure it’ll be educational and informative for those PAYING ATTENTION. some of yall niggas stay so stuck on the surface, you never get fed the food that lies beneath.

    now chew on that food, if you can dig it. hahaha

  24. Rome says:

    He’s said this like a million times.

  25. Rome says:

    Not trying to take away nothing from his greatness but alot of his songs, especially his hits, have a hook to them from a sample or someone singing a hook.

  26. Nathaniel says:

    @Rome

    yeah, him and every other hip hop artist. niggas been throwing singers on hooks for over 15 years. and samples (from scratches like what premier does to otherwise) have been a staple even longer than that.

    it’s music. whatever makes the music come out best, that’s what you go with. there are a lot of emotions in people that RAP just can’ get across. that’s why pac harmonized, and you FELT HIM. thats why andre started singing like a muthafucka, lol. rapping Prototype, etc just wasn’t gone cut it.
