Disrespectful views at Tha Kang, T.I.? Nah, Ms. Banks you're out of line. Yeah Harris' Aussie ain't that dope but neither are you. I just saw you at Coachella and I wasn't impressed. You got the look, the swag, the tough talk but where are the tunes? "212" is alright but that's where it stops. According to Jay-Z's old board rules: You have no right to diss Tip. Look in the mirror and ask yourself: How many classic albums have you created? Are you on anyone's top 10 MCs list? Do you have any hardware on your walls, ma? Cliff is right. Keep him out of the girlfight. You're heavy in these tweets, but I hope you're finding time to create music that backs up your buzz. Or you'll soon be begone like Kreayshawn. You young ladies today bore me. *Turns up Mia X CD* No Limit forever!
The best things in life are free, but hopping on Hov's press conference stage uninvited is gon cost cha. Whatcha did was wrong! ⎯B.Dot
YO I KNOW WE BEEN WAITING A LONG TIME FOR ACT II, BUT I TRULY BELIEVE THAT JAY ELECT IS GONNA DELIVER AN ALBUM WORTHY OF TOP 5 STATUS ALL TIME…
HE STILL HAS A TON OF MATERIAL THAT HE HAS BEEN KEEPING QUIET, JUST WAITING FOR THE RIGHT WAY TO RELEASE IT
JAY Z WILL GIVE THIS MAN THE ATTENTION HE DESERVES. YALL GONNA SAY THAT JAY Z WONT PROMOTE HIM AND WILL ONLY GIVE HIM AS MUCH BUZZ AS J COLE
BUT YALL WILL LISTEN TO ANYTHING JAY Z IS FEATURED ON.. JAY Z WOULD HAVE TO BRING HIS ABSOLUTE A GAME TO BE ABLE TO STAY ON A TRACK WITH THIS MAN
THIS IS A GREAT DAY FOR HIP HOP EVEN IF WE HAVE TO WAIT LONGER BECAUSE WE KNOW SEE THAT JAY ELECT WILL GET A PLATFORM THAT HE DESERVES
PLEASE DONT TRY TO BE NEGATIVE. THIS WILL BE EPIC
Good look. Z, Cole and Elec celebration time I’m rollin a J.
I love it I love it.
Funny when bloggers try and give Jay Z business advice.
On another note this made my night.
[...] Jay Electronica has signed to Roc Nation. [...]
Now he can go as far as The Roots did when they were under Jay @ Def Jam.
NOW HE WILL GO AS FAR AS THE ROOTS DID WHEN THEY WERE UNDER JAY @ DEF JAM.
I WOULD HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS SHIT COMING. JUST WHEN I WAS GIVING UP ON JAY ELECT
HE SIGNS WITH THE ROC. THROW YOUR DIAMONDS IN THE SKY IF YOU FEEL THE VIBE
I WONDER IF YN IS GOING TO START KISSING JAY ELECT ASS NOW AND FORGET THE WHOLE BLACKOUT OVER EM THING. I GUESS GOD BODY & THE DEVIL CAN BE IN THE SAME ROOM WITH NO PROBLEMS(JUST JOKES PEOPLE)
J~Hov,J~ Cole, Jay Elecronica that’s a bangin line up. Roc~nation in effect!!!!
Bahahahaha….Gay-Z is a clown and a sellout. Now he goes and signs a guy whose lyrics make me want to jump right into molten lava.
FINALLY BIG HOMMIE JAY ELECTRONICA IS GOING MAJOR. HE’S IN MA TOP 5 MCS
Im fine with this as long as Jay Z doesn’t make Jay Elect go pop like his sorry ass. Jay Elects album should come before Coles, but will definitely include a Cole feature.
I just hopes this means some music is coming…what Hiphop albums has Rocnation pushed besides Hov yet?
nice Rapradar shout out! lol
OK I WASN’T GONNA SY NOTHING BUT WHY JAY-Z LOOK LIKE THE DEVIL BEFORE YOU PLAY THE CLIP

SO GO AHEAD DRIZZY GET OUT UR DEAL HOV CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN FUNNY SHIT IS IM A EX STREET NIGGA AND I TOLD THE CREW WEEZY WILL BE JEALOUS STRAIGHT UP NOBODY CARES ABOUT HIM HE CANT SNEEK NIKI IN THE FACE WITH A JAB SO HE WENT AT DRIZZY… J.COLE DRAKE AND JAY ELEC.

Can anyone remind me who else besides Jay Jay has ever really broke? And I don’t consider Beenie or Freeway broke. And he had little to do with Kanye. Anyone???
NIGGA FINALLY GOTTA PUT PRODUCT OUT!!!! NO MORE SITTIN’ ON THE COUCH EATIN’ BON-BONS JAY ELECT!!!! HA!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Jay-z is building a nice roster over there at Roc Nation. As for Jay Electronica, I thought he would keep it independent but at the very least he gets the right amount of promotion and gets better tour money.
WIZ KHALIFA WIZ KHALIFA WIZ KHALIFA WIZ KHALIFA WIZ KHALIFA WIZ KHALIFA
:Best choice to me for roc nation is WIZ KHALIFA let’s hope jay get’s wiz next/100% best choice for hova
But this is Very nice news//
jay electro was a +6 rep automatic choice for roc nation//
These black men are more interesting then any white artist
just because there songs are more about the truth out there
then a white man singing about is lame girlfriend again or just vulgar white slangs at an extreme//
PM:Best choice to me for roc nation is WIZ KHALIFA let’s hope jay get’s wiz next/100% best choice for hova// then make a super group/ J-/electronica//riri //j cole //hova ////wiz
:)
Can anyone remind me who else besides Jay Jay has ever really broke? And I don’t consider Beenie or Freeway broke.

I think his main successes have been Rihanna, Rick Ross, Ne-yo, Young Jeezy.
super dope. i heard about this awhile back. finally, someone i fuck with on roc nation besides hov.
I’m a HUGE jay-z fan but when it comes to pushing out potential good, hitmaking talent his track record isn’t too good, with the exception of rihanna and maybe ross, who can you say? Kayne was all Dame and Beans was a G.O.A.T candidate, time will tell though.

JAY ELECHANUKKAH
Yessssssssssssssssss!!!!!!
stfu about Jay Electronica … dude NEVER spits. he drops a verse every month or so, hes worse then eminem with that shit. stop hiding n drop music … fuck u idiots talkin about J Cole in trouble? did u not hear FRIDAYNIGHTLIGHTS? J COLE > Jay Elect allday everyday … and hov? SMH stupid ass jay elect talkin shit about NY how u gnna sign that homo
Roc nation, Young Money and G.O.O.D music is gonna take over….yes all three….Because commercially Young Money is gonna be the hottest, Musically GOOD Music and Lyrically Rock Nation
when your the best rapper in brooklyn your the best rapper in the world/
JAY-Z NEEDS TO SIGN RAEKWON from brooklyn there probably the 2 best rappers in the world right now///
MTV is managed by white jews and black pedophiles ((sorry but you need to give them money or pussy or else they don’t break you when your young= MTV management))
PM: ACTUALLY why the HELL was Raekwon not on roca fella in the first place that is there biggest mistake of all time as a label.
And fuck MTV 10//raekwon makes the top3 spot for me //jay/yeezy//raekwon//
eminem slangs is to white trash and he’s looks like a old man rapper now anyway// plus waka flocka instead of raekwon in top 10//it’s like i told you money will get you far you can buy anything with money/ even the police can escort you to a show if your a performer and it’s legal just have to pay for it?”)
So JAY only sign rappers from brooklyn except wiz khalifa
Lord the game in trouble. Fuck what the haters say Roc Nation,G.O.O.D. Music the return of hip-hop. I fucking love it.

Great, now Jay-Z can jump on/fuck over/spit his meaningless + unemotional rhymes over every new Jay Elec song. Sounds Awesome.
Guess that would be cool if he bucked up and started making records and good music and shit.
