They have matching rings. Look @ the 1st pic & see Jordan’s ring. Then look @ the 2nd pic & see Jay’s ring. Both are on the right hand. Hmmmmmmm

hah, jordan does look faded and chris paul is way taller than he looks on the court with the other giants.
@RAPRADAR
LMAO! I KNOW THAT YOU GUYS ARE JAY-Z’S STAN BUT THIS POST IS A FUCKERY!!!!!
HOW CAN JAY-Z BE THE GOAT WHEN HE GOT ETHERED BY NAS, RENEGADED BY A WHITE RAPPER & KILLED BY A PRODUCER WHO DIDN’T EVEN WRITE HIS OWN LYRICS ON RUN THIS TOWN? C’MON SON!!!!!!!
I WILL EXPLAIN ALL YOU BUMS WHY THIS GUY ISN”T THE BEST RAPPER:
-ALBUM SALES: EMINEM, TUPAC, 50 CENT & NELLY OUTSELL HIM. PLUS HIS SHIT DOESN’T SELL OUTSIDE THE USA.
-SINGLE SALES: HIS MOST SUCCESSFUL SONGS ARE RNB SONGS. HE GOT 4 NUMBER ONE SONGS BUT THE ARE ALL FEMALE DUETS: MARIAH CAREY RIHANNA BEYONCE & ALICIA KEYS ARE THE REASON WHY PEOPLE BOUGHT IT. HE WAITED TILL 40 TO HAVE HIS FIRST #1 SONG WHEN B.O.B WHO IS TWICE YOUNGER HAD IT WITH HIS FIRST LP.
+ LUDACRIS GOT MORE NUMBER ONE SONG! + EMINEM GOT 4 NUMBER ONE AND THEY ARE ALL HIS OWN SONGS, LIKE 50 CENT!!!!!
+CLASSIC ALBUMS: HE GOT TWO CLASSICS : RD & BLUEPRINT, IT’S THE SAME FOR BIGGIE DR DRE & KANYE. BUT PAC & EM GOT THREE UNTOUCHABLE LP!!!!
-CELEBRITY: NELLY, EMINEM, TUPAC BIGGIE & 50 CENT ARE WAY MORE FAMOUS!! THEY ARE ACTUALLY INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN, IN EUROPE NOBODY KNOWS HOV’S MUSIC, HE IS JUSR MR KNOWLES!!!
-LAST ALBUM: IT WAS WACK & POP!!! 15 TRACKS WITH 13 FEATURINGS!!!!!! WTF, IS HE THE NEW DJ KHALED???? HOV IS CLEARLY FALLING OFF WITH HIS SKILLS!!!!
-EM KANYE T.I. & WAYNE LAST (RAP) ALBUMS SOLD WAY MORECOPIES!!!
CONCLUSION: HOV AIN’T THE GOAT! PAC BIGGIE & EM ARE BETTER & BIGGER!!! SORRY MR. KNOWLES!!

HORUS IS THE TRUTH✔

You guys see Rondo get denied a seat at the Jay-Z show last night after winning the game for his team? I wonder if Jordan took his seat…
You know damn well Jay-z wanted to do the “Kool-aid smile” in that pic with Oakley, Jordan, & Chris Paul.

@Horus,
you are TRULY an idiot. You spat a whole bunch of OPINIONATED CONJECTURE and tried to pass it off as FACT?!? lmao.
You should be proud of yourself. Because while it’s 100% OBVIOUS TO ANYONE WITH COMMON F****N SENSE WHENEVER IT COMES TO THIS HIPHOP S**T, JAY-Z IS WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT THE G.O.A.T.?!?!? THERE IS NO RAPPER……AS A MATTER OF FACT, THERE IS NO OTHER BLACK MAN ON THIS PLANET WHO HAS EFFECTED WHAT HAPPENS, WHATS IMPORTANT, WHATS ACCEPTABLE, ETC. IN THE HISTORY OF THIS S**T! U CAN’T EVEN THINK OF THE WORD “RAP” WITHOUT THINKING OF THE NAME JAY-Z FIRST! HE’S NOT THE MIKE JORDAN OF RAP BECAUSE HE SAID IT?? HE’S THE MIKE JORDAN OF RAP BECAUSE HE IS THE MIKE JORDAN OF RAP?!?! LMFAO. PERIOD.

yepANDnope says:
YOU KNOW WHAT, JUST FOR SHITS AND GIGGLES, IM GONNA RESPOND TO ALL OF YOUR FUCKERY:
-Yes the “popular opinion” is that Once upon a time almost a FULL DECADE AGO, Nas made a better diss record than Jay-Z. Well let’s see. Since that faithful day TEN FUCKIN YEARS AGO when the “sunshined on a dog’s ass” let’s evaluate the paths that each of their lives took (and don’t worry, i won’t mention all of jay’z accomplishments because it would take too long)….in fact. I’m not even going to compare their careers because if ur as “knowledgeable” about hiphop as u pretend to be, then it’s OBVIOUS that Nas is like the popular kid who peaked in high school with “Ether” and Jay-Z is that kid that was doing his thing, and then eventually becomes the BOSS (literally jayz becomes nas’ boss lmao) of the guy who peaked in high school. And for the Eminem tomfoolery…lmao. Eminem’s lyrics were NO more “potent,” “powerful,” “special,” “important,” “creative,” or ANYTHING better than Jay-Z’s verses, but because Nas made a song about it you dickriding haters who CAN’T WAIT for the opportunity to hate on Jay-Z jumped on the bandwagon. What Eminem actually did is what he ALWAYS does to other rappers…..He spit his verses double or triple cadence with that loud angry voice and it “comes off” as better……it’s the same principle when two people are arguing and even though the quiet relaxed person may be making a better point, the ONLY thing people hear and remember (well ignorant people anyway) is the person that was yelling. Eminem is a better “rap technician” than jay-z as far as composing multisyllabic rhymes, but jay-z is better than eminem in EVERY OTHER F8**G CATEGORY OF RAP U MORON!
-Classic album count?!?!? lmao. Did u say Eminem and tupac have THREE CLASSIC ALBUMS and Jay-Z has two? LMFAO.?A HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH!
YOU KNOW WHAT? after i read that shit, it became very clear that you’re not worth responding to anymore, because thats just f****g stupid?!?! lmfao. nevermind. im done with u. lmao. wow. cant believe u took to time to type that tomfoolery. lmfao.

Repetition is the secret to success. Every day and night the same thing. Boring as hell but everyone I know that are successful (and I equate success with money) have repeated the same thing every day and night for years. Imagine how many time Jordan took the same shot or ran the same play day in and day out. How may times has Carter performed the same song night and day for months at a time. it takes a certain personality.

XAYKING says:
Mike hella blowed! LMAO, and Jigga is the best, his resume’ says so, he’s the hardest working artist, eminem drops 2 to 3 albums after 2 to 3 year breaks, EM’s great but not consistent enough to his own craft, Nas is iight but being a great rapper dosent many that much when no one is listening, its some rappers as good as nas on the block that just battle rap, after illmatic BIG BLOW THE NIGGA OUT THE WATER AND BECAME KING of new york, he been average ever since like Jay said, and 2pac was not lyrical nigga himself, BIG is only who jay has problem with the air to the thrown, and plus non of these guys are better than rakim or KRS those are the best, Jay is the best of his era hands down!!! Horus your wrong and a hater

sway-z says:
They met before this, I remember Hov talking about them playing pool and Mike being ultra competitive and shit.
But to be real, I always felt Jay was more parallel to Kobe than MJ, check it:
– Both pop on the scene in ’96
– Both got crucified for paying homage to the ones they looked up to (B.I.G., MJ)
– Neither one gets the proper respect because of those two they picked up the mantle from
– Both were supposedly overtaken by new talent (Lebron, Wayne) only to come back stronger
donblaq says:
co-sign sway-z!!!
The only shit is….if HOV is Kobe than he can’t be the GOAT. I don’t know how to reconcile that part but other than that….thats a spot on comparison
All of you must live in New York or some shit…Jay is great, no doubt. But how can you honestly look at yourself and still say he’s a better than Em? I guess I have to be the one to bring the truth out. First, Jay is great, let me repeat. But besides the “swag rapping” (which Jay does the best), what exactly does he do better than Em? There’s only so many times you can rap about how much money you have, how much you set trends, and your accomplishments. That subject matter gets old. Granted, no one raps about money and accomplishments like Jay: “Me Im dodging raindrops, meaning on Vaca.” ” Nigga if you ballin, then what Im doin can’t be defined”. Great stuff. He’s done “Song Cry”, pretty creative. He’s done “99 Problems”. Great track. “Death of Autotune” was great. On the last two, he still touches on how dope he is. But then you have “Aint no nigga”, “Can I get a”, “Jigga”, “Hard Knock Life”, “Big Pimpin”, “Give it 2 me”, “Money aint a thing”, “Show me what you got”, “Roc Boys”, “On to the next one”….what do they ALL have in common? Same subject matter. Dope tracks, don’t get me wrong but c’mon…hes NOWHERE near the artist Eminem is. Not even close. Em has done “Stan”, “Guilty Conscience”, “The way I am”, ” Without me”, “White America”, “Till I Collapse”, “Sing for the Moment”, “Lose Yourself”, “Cleaning out my Closet”, “Mosh”, “Toy Soldiers”, “Wide Awake”, “Not Afraid”, “Love the way you Lie”. See a difference? All of Em’s tracks have different subject matter. Theres no one more versatile. Em can do ridiculous hooks. He can ride a beat like no ones business, really only Ghost compares. And cmon, he murdered Jay on Renegade, be real. He’s never lost in a battle with ANYONE. Jay has. Em has gotten on tracks with Jay, Biggie, Wayne, Xzibit, Meth, Royce, Kanye, Drake, Tech N9NE, Chino, Lloyd Banks….hes murdered all of them. What is there to argue at this point? Its a bit weird that he’s white, I get it. But, there is not a better rapper on the planet. If you’re argument is that Jay has had a bigger impact in pop culture? Sure, I’ll give you that. But if the question is simply: Who is a better RAP ARTIST? Em, and it’s not close.
I’ll leave you with this accordingly: “If you don’t respect that, your whole prespective is whack, maybe you’ll love me when I fade to black.”

@spliggidy splash – First of all all the great tracks you just named are not Jay’s best tracks…. Modern yet jumpy songs…. Hov is the greatest symbolic rapper to pass through the game, the trendiest ever in that his style influences every rapper. Ems flow is bananas and his animation is out of the world but to fact his lyrics at the end of the day carry no weight… In a way you have to measure it from the point of balancing what you say and how you say it….. When em stepped on the forever joint for example most people said he killed everyone when in fact Drake’s verse and kanye’s carried twice the meaning…. You shoult a lil and say words that rhyme with a punch line or 2 and people think ur the best…. This is rap and it doesn’t work that way. ….. All of you keep talking about renegade – Beat made by eminem to suit his style and passed on to jay…. Put em on any classic jay beat and u’ll grab a headache in 2 seconds… i’m not trying to discredit em…. But he’s no B.I.G and that puts him at spot number 3…. Kanye’s catalog is arguably better than ems to be honest……..
1. Jay-z – Like big he comes from the original breed of rappers…Big said it himself… the only rapper he was scared of talent wise was Jay… He was right, the most consistent Rapper ever and still going….
2. Big – Like Jay a true bred rapper. One that saw his time come way too early in life. Amazing that his catalog and weight in the game refuses to die.
3. Em – A natural at metaz and incredible switch ups, The perfect student of rap. Em has said it in his own words that Jay leads hip hop.
4. Kanye – Quality and versatility defined to the finest degree
5. Nas – Peaked early still holds steady at top 5 all time. I bad taste in production and lack of good judgment in studio I believe are to be blamed for a longer run at the top.
Hip Hop is not sales, it is not a fast or slow flow, it’s a movement, a channel that delivers a story or message, a platform that opens the doors to every other subject in life.
Jay has proven to the world that he does it best…..
JAY IS THE FUCKING GOAT WHO HAS BEEN CONSISTANT LIKE JAY NO ONE AND IF BLACK PEOPLE DIDNT HATE ON EACH OTHER SO MUCH HE WOULD HAVE EASILY PUT UP MORE CD SALES THEN ‘EM’ SO SIT DOWN .

The Vapors says:
Eminem is not better than Jay-Z musically… Eminem’s flow is bananas and he definitely makes great music, but on some real shit Reasonable Doubt, In My Lifetime Vol. 2, and Blue Print Album go harder than Em albums imho.
Jay-Z’s wacker albums produced some of the dopest singles on some hip hop shit. Big Pimpin’ was on a wack album. So at Jay-Z’s best he’s untouchable and at his not so great he can come up with Top 40 records.
On some battle shit who has Eminem went at???
Benzino??? I can’t recite 2 bars from any Benzino verse ever…
Ja Rule??? Ja actually got at Em the hardest out of everybody in his career. “Em U said ya mom’s is a crackhead and Kim is a known slut, so what’s Hailey gonna be when she grows up? Muuuuurrrrrddddaaaaa!” went way below the belt, but it made me respect Rule to a degree.
I won’t mentiion the pop acts, because I actually Em was a genius for all of his beefs with Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, BSB etc…
Jay-Z on the other went hard @ Nas and lost, but he still went for his.
Jay-Z slowed Prodigy’s momentum hard with the help of the Summer Jam Screen.
Jay-Z scorched Ma$e on Hard Knock Life.
The only thing I could say for Em is he’s never ducked a rap beef/battle, but Jay-Z on the other hand has been a little suspect in that department.
Cam played him out in the Suck it or Not video. JJ Evans was too funny, but Cam had a hard time in DC.
Beans got Jigga heart. Jay scared to reply in a rap to the BROAD SKREET BULLY.
For whatever reason Jay-Z has for not responding to these guys is wack, but @ the end of the day I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and say that I think he can out rap them, but he doesn’t want to give them an opportunity to gain fame from him.
Oh yeah i 4got PAC was dissing Jigga heavy, but 2Pac died shortly after. I think 2Pac would’ve ended Jay-Z’s career if he never died, but that’s not the case and I’ll admit Jay-Z is not better than Pac, BIG, and maybe Nas… But he’s better than Em.
dainventah says:
@spiggity splash COSIGN COSIGN COSIGN….Jay had the bigger impact and was/is the “coolest” rapper in the history of hip hop…biggie was probably the rawest…and Nas was like a prodigy chess player (see bobby fischer) who is so much more naturally talented than everyone else at such a young age that they get tunnel vision and forget to polish all their other skills (hence the bad production choices, lack of ability to recognize popular appeal, provide diverse subject matter, use cadence versatility ect)
Em is probably not the best at any one thing, but he has 90 percent of the best quality of each rapper i just mentioned..so that makes him the most COMPLETE hip hop artist to date…
But of course it will always be a black and white thing, not matter what you say…i guess to be honest i can’t expect it not to be…2000 years of hate and seperation (on both sides if you span different continents) arent washed away by a few rap records by Eminem…i just wish people would be more up front with their prejudices…you people with blatent hate thinly disguised as logical arguements are a joke. …when over 50 percent of your post is filled with all caps and exclaimation points, you are not coherently arguing anything
Have any of you em riders ever danced with a woman in a club? Like actually touching the woman. That’s a pretty big part of hip hop. And I don’t mean dancing in front of a woman whose doing the same dance.
Anyway, I’ll give you that the boy is nasty and he bodied hov on renegade but the goat?!
Have you heard d’evils, friend or foe (both), where I’m from, u must love me, soon you’ll understand, I made it, star is born. Hov’s got other looks.
But short of that still its Style homie. Style. That’s what this rap shit will always be about. Talk about shoe laces, bubble gum, geopolitics, race relations or bricks. Do it with style and we ride. I don’t hear anybody decrying pac’s lack of versatility. Big’s. Snoop. LL. Kane. Ra. Chuck. Run. While I’m not happy that he is so fixated on drugs and money, I still am amazed at the dozens of ways jay paints that picture lyrically, rhythmically and musically. Furthermore I understand the fixation. Not endorse but understand. Our music still largely resides in and is exported from the hood. If you want to talk about why some cats in the hood are so fixated on the shiny things and the fast way to get them, then you need to touch on a lot more than this rap shit. I celebrate when one of ours gets off that but I don’t hate because a cat has not reached that understanding.
Anyway fuck it. If you ain’t living in the h o v then it ain’t yo stee.
Ballin says:
Just a few months ago Lebron would have been that pic as well, but it looks like Jay said Fk Bron, I will just go hang with MJ who is really on my level. He pretty much said its on to the next one, could it be that we are seeing a courtship for Paul to NJ? A the end of the day its dope to see legends coming together, allot of history right there. Props!!!!!!!!!!
As far as all the Em vrs Jay shit, Jay is way more consistent, has swag and is def a trend setter, but I do believe that EM is way more lyrical and especially when he is focused like he is now, Em is a battler rapper, Jay is more of a story teller. They both got there own strengths and weaknesses, but if you wanna go by sales alone, Em kills everyone. Its a shame that when it comes to EM people always turn it racial, cause truth be told. You can paint EM any color you want and he is still going to ill as shit. They both dope at the of the day, living legendss

Who cares whos better? Whats that gonna do for your lives? IMO, as long as people have JAY and EM in they top 10, no matter how they placed, im satisfied. But i do feel like the people who say Jay is better are a little biased or havent even listened to an Eminem song past his pop singles becuase they saying stuff like he dont tell stories or his lyrics dont carry weight, try listening to Soldier and tell me you dont get shivers from his flow, and have a lyric sheet next to you too so you know what he saying. People that say Em dont talk about shit just dont pay attention to what he saying and put things together, just being dazzled by the flow and thats it

Jay Z look sick and shribbled up I guess the devil worshipping is getting to his soul and causing his skin to wrinkle look like he got the “devil disease” rest of the men look well and healthy and happy that is what the devil does to you just look at JAY Z!
Reno Pratorius says:
nah what the devil does you’ll NEVER know because you worship evil. Evil in it’s purest form. It’s called Abrahamism. Your beliefs are the reason you celebrate a massacre known as Thanksgiving. You celebrate a man who was a christian called Christopher Columbus who destroyed so much of the Natives land no one even knows the name of the land they lived on except for America. You should know that most people who transcend leave Abrahamism because they start to learn the truth and God has opened their minds because they are part of Gods Folks. Which are NOTHING like how your Abrahamic belief system says. How about this read, Isaiah 14:12-13, from that scripture you will learn evils plan, not the devil that entity is not real only a way to explain evil in a humanoid form that lesser men and women can understand. Jesus says the only way to God is through me. That is in direct conflict with the first commandment. Your jesus has said, “I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God, I will also sit on the mount of the congregation. Revelation 22:16 jesus reveals himself as the same person as Lucifer (Lucifer Son of the morning/ jesus bright morning star). Lucifer in Latin is translated as ‘Light Bearer.’ Jesus says he is the light of the world John 8:12. You have been taught a lie your whole life. Maybe one day you will be accepted into the light but until then you will remain in darkness. tah tah

People helping each other with the knowledge we learn. Sure enough if you studied then you’d realize a potential you didn’t see in yourself. But from learning there is one thing I’ve found out, some people are not made for the upper echelon. There is a caste system and every human falls into it. Some are on the bottom, like you, others are in the middle-or upper middle and others are top tier. So understand we are here to help people. I met on girl who was very into lame guys. She wanted to do everything to hold herself back so she stayed with the guy even though he’s garbage. I met someone else who takes her life seriously and I help her make business moves.

Why Hov and Jordan got the same rings on???
I didnt believe in that occult stuff before, but these pics prove that no one smokes like MJ smokes.
He is a happy drunk and off that KUSH.
Oh yeah, one more thing. Jay Z’s GOAT title cant be measured in no stats. Its in the heart and minds of our collective consciousness. He already won us over, like MJ. He has been so influential, like MJ. Thank God he aint wasted as hell in these pics, like MJ.

Spliggidy splash u sound stupid. Just remember to say u are speaking from a white persons point of view. Rap music is predominately black. the things that eminem usually raps about have meaning. But not as big of a meaning to black people. Think about the ratios from white to black. Serial killers.. Mainly white communities concern. Same for pedophile, rapist, and weak minded people. Black people main concern is for bettering themselves or feeling like we are the shit. And for all y’all who say rapping about money and swag will get old or it’s pointless…. Stop dreaming. Just say u wish it would get old. If u want to hear the same message that eminem sends out just listen any rock song. Same angry tone and message. I like songs that make me feel like I’m the shit even if I’m not.
Vee says:
Easy MR Em did all, you took out songs from EM that have a different matter to Kim, His Mother and Haily… so naaahhhh… 11 albums same subject matter every track and still be consistent? I take that over kill kim daily…
Nas didnt kill Jay, for the smart ones when you listen to Take over, you know who was the winner, the victor, listen to Blueprint two, …
Heart of the City, you must love me, lucky me, u dont know, diamonds are forever, Lost ones, Party life, D’evils, Politics as usual.. stop me I go back and forth cause it is so Legendary… even Em in his raps says when I die i better be put besides Jay Z… Jay Z never says such, even Nas says that. every rapper that wants to be known wishes to be part of Jay Z… they wish to be seen with him, even biopolar Game can attest to this, even 50 cents, the reason you all wanna say he aint the best is because you know that his legency will live further than your best any day anytime and get over the illuminati stuff…
Only two rappers get mentioned when Jay’s greatness is Menntioned and they both up in heaven… not really for their best, but for their starts… Pac(not that best but he was uplifting) and BIG(a great story teller)…
Em is good, but aint best… sometimes making a disc scratch with your mouth is just that, a disk scratch…
Nas, is there any reason we should talk about him versus Jay z besides their beef 10yrs ago? name one reason then we good to go…
50 cents: aaahhh lets compare him to the Game please
who is on your list of best so we can have a go at why Jay is better??? ohh Solja Boy tell them yeah… should I…hahahahahahahahahaha you Horus is cake… thats food for thought dont let it go to waste

SpaceGhost says:
Don’t be so sensitive. We favor Jay-Z and like his skill level better. I’m 30 and I’ve grown up with them both, but Jay is relevant in my stereo and Em is not. Mind you, I am a hip-hop head. One minute I’m listening to classic Brand Nubian, the next NWA, the next Rick Ross, and onto Hov,etc. Em is a great emcee, but his reality is a white reality, because, well…..he’s white and that’s ok. We just don’t relate to it. Most people don’t remember him from Rawkus Soundbombing or even Outsidaz/D-12 days. I do. To be honest, he was always interesting, but let’s be honest. He blew up because Dr. Dre signed him, produced him, and co-signed him. We veered toward him for Dr. Dre’s production. I know this because I was well aware of him before he signed but did not spend money on his product until Dre scooped him.
Vee says:
I didnt even mention his colour, that tells you who is racist between you and I, all I know is Em is given too much credit and Jay Z is labelled before people can give him his due…
That man gave you Nigga what, nigga who, he gave you Hard knock Life, He gave you This cant be Life, the Dynasty intor, this man gave you 13 albums, 2 with R Kelly, this man, this man, this man Gave you the best of himself…
Yeah Em is one of my favorite but truth be told, Em will never make me think of his rhymes life Jay Z do… He is the only rapper right now with a book being released to analyse his lyrics cos you dumb dumbs are always on blogs saying seee he said “Jesuscant save you life starts when church ends”…illuminati and you dont listen to the body of work…
Give me a double entrendre line from Em, I will give you a couple of triple ones from Jay Z… you call him Mr Subliminal, Mr Entrendre, Trendsetter… Jay is Hova the God, do you believe?
SpaceGhost says:
Yes I do!
Reno Pratorius says:
eminem is garbage. The only reason why he made it so big is because racist whites bought his music. White people who wouldn’t be caught dead listening to rap bought his music as the sole white rapper uncle toms endorsed. I’d NEVER be caught dead claiming eminem is top shelf. When I want parody rap I listen to Real Husband’s Of Atlanta.
Vee says:
The problem with hip hop claimers is they say Jay is at his best when he talks about drugs but at his worst when he school them… Listen to Venus versus Mars… for the Panzi scheme, damnnn shorty just made off… only if you smart you would know what that is…
You say he fell off cos he didnt give you an album saying I run the streets, I kill niggers, I sell drugs… well maybe thats cos he dont know more, he dont run rap he runs the map, even the president of USA listens to him.. how big does one man have to be before we all give him his flowers, when he is dead?
Listen to the whole album, the intro just tells you that I cant keep spoon feeding people, then the second track tells you Im thankful, then track 3 says get off that already, then 4 tells you I run this here, 5 tells you My state of mind is New York, then 6 tells you I got your back, 7 tells you im moving on, 8 tells you I am off my old rhymes, old tracks, old clothing, get off my with that you have to rhyme like RD, just buy RD, you wanna hear RD buy RD, 9 he tells you that we have role models born everywhere daily, then 10 Venus versus mars tells you about the deception of a woman who wont have your back, 11 Already home says Im comfortable where Im at, then 12 Hater tells you that you keep hating on me like I aint the best but the only reason you hate is you wish you were me… then Reminder takes you back to tell you im that dude… So ambitious schools you, tells you dont let nobody tell you, you cant do it, then Forever young tells you, growing is a state of mind, you can be young forever by doing what makes you feel young…
you guys forced Jay to talk about drugs on American gangster, but now its time you all move on with the times, we cant keep adressing the same issue on one man, he is growing… he aint no Eminem cos obviously he respects his mother, loves Beyonce and dont have achild yet so he cant give you songs that say kill you to his mother, cant give you songs like puke for Mariah Carey, he cant diss women who are close to his heart, his last album didnt adress women as bitches, instead it addressed them as woman and told them wanna be a lady or???
You cant be in Tribeca talking about a street in Brooklyn like you there daily, like you still move coke, sometimes all it takes is understanding where you are and then say Im in Tribeca, let me teach these people how to live here, let me tell them to own the trade centre, let me show them that investng is good… we have few black man doing this, KRS one should be far, LL Cool J should be far., Snoop should be far, DMX should be far… their problem is, either they dont wanna get off the street creds that they keep having problems with the law or Snoop has another sex movie…
Jay z gets on Oprah and she gives him 5pages on her magazine because she sees how influencial he is, Jay on Letterman and you here how much he is respected, Jay stay away from an award show and Rap gets respected, he did that until rap got represented more, Jay didnt go to the mainstream, the mainstream came to jay, he didnt leave the hood, the suburbs came to the hood for him… I dont want a Jay Beef with anyone, that was between 96 and 2003… he chose to grow after that, you just cant keep fighting with people because their opinion of you is jealous….
Jay is a better body of work than many of your rappers because he respects his hustle, and nobody can knock that… respect what God gave you and you will see how far God take you with it…
How many songs are dedicated to Jay z, his hustle… Drake sits everyday in interviews and go i am the next Jay, Lil wayne used to do that, Gucci, Jeezy, Kanye, Ross… name a rapper who came out after 2003 who never said im the next JAy, even Lupe… “Hov’s a living legend and I tell you why, everybody wanna be Hov and Hov’s still alive”

Hold on,what happened to “I aint taking pictures with no niggas!!!” LMAO
I guess as long as those niggas got money then its all good.
I consider Jordan the G.O.A.T. but after that Chamillionaire story and other stories i’ve heard about him,I cant really respect dude that much.
Ut oh…isn’t that the “secret” illumaniti handshake in the second pic? << *end of sarcasm*
haha mj does look fuckin faded there

Mike probably probably thanked him for:
“As fate would have it, Jay’s status appears
to be at an all-time high, perfect time to say goodbye
When I come back like Jordan, wearin the 4-5
It ain’t to play games witchu
It’s to aim at you, probably maim you”
They have matching rings. Look @ the 1st pic & see Jordan’s ring. Then look @ the 2nd pic & see Jay’s ring. Both are on the right hand. Hmmmmmmm

@RAPRADAR
LMAO! I KNOW THAT YOU GUYS ARE JAY-Z’S STAN BUT THIS POST IS A FUCKERY!!!!!
HOW CAN JAY-Z BE THE GOAT WHEN HE GOT ETHERED BY NAS, RENEGADED BY A WHITE RAPPER & KILLED BY A PRODUCER WHO DIDN’T EVEN WRITE HIS OWN LYRICS ON RUN THIS TOWN? C’MON SON!!!!!!!
I WILL EXPLAIN ALL YOU BUMS WHY THIS GUY ISN”T THE BEST RAPPER:
-ALBUM SALES: EMINEM, TUPAC, 50 CENT & NELLY OUTSELL HIM. PLUS HIS SHIT DOESN’T SELL OUTSIDE THE USA.
-SINGLE SALES: HIS MOST SUCCESSFUL SONGS ARE RNB SONGS. HE GOT 4 NUMBER ONE SONGS BUT THE ARE ALL FEMALE DUETS: MARIAH CAREY RIHANNA BEYONCE & ALICIA KEYS ARE THE REASON WHY PEOPLE BOUGHT IT. HE WAITED TILL 40 TO HAVE HIS FIRST #1 SONG WHEN B.O.B WHO IS TWICE YOUNGER HAD IT WITH HIS FIRST LP.
+ LUDACRIS GOT MORE NUMBER ONE SONG! + EMINEM GOT 4 NUMBER ONE AND THEY ARE ALL HIS OWN SONGS, LIKE 50 CENT!!!!!
+CLASSIC ALBUMS: HE GOT TWO CLASSICS : RD & BLUEPRINT, IT’S THE SAME FOR BIGGIE DR DRE & KANYE. BUT PAC & EM GOT THREE UNTOUCHABLE LP!!!!
-CELEBRITY: NELLY, EMINEM, TUPAC BIGGIE & 50 CENT ARE WAY MORE FAMOUS!! THEY ARE ACTUALLY INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN, IN EUROPE NOBODY KNOWS HOV’S MUSIC, HE IS JUSR MR KNOWLES!!!
-LAST ALBUM: IT WAS WACK & POP!!! 15 TRACKS WITH 13 FEATURINGS!!!!!! WTF, IS HE THE NEW DJ KHALED???? HOV IS CLEARLY FALLING OFF WITH HIS SKILLS!!!!
-EM KANYE T.I. & WAYNE LAST (RAP) ALBUMS SOLD WAY MORECOPIES!!!
CONCLUSION: HOV AIN’T THE GOAT! PAC BIGGIE & EM ARE BETTER & BIGGER!!! SORRY MR. KNOWLES!!

HORUS IS THE TRUTH✔
You guys see Rondo get denied a seat at the Jay-Z show last night after winning the game for his team? I wonder if Jordan took his seat…

You know damn well Jay-z wanted to do the “Kool-aid smile” in that pic with Oakley, Jordan, & Chris Paul.
@Horus,
you are TRULY an idiot. You spat a whole bunch of OPINIONATED CONJECTURE and tried to pass it off as FACT?!? lmao.
You should be proud of yourself. Because while it’s 100% OBVIOUS TO ANYONE WITH COMMON F****N SENSE WHENEVER IT COMES TO THIS HIPHOP S**T, JAY-Z IS WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT THE G.O.A.T.?!?!? THERE IS NO RAPPER……AS A MATTER OF FACT, THERE IS NO OTHER BLACK MAN ON THIS PLANET WHO HAS EFFECTED WHAT HAPPENS, WHATS IMPORTANT, WHATS ACCEPTABLE, ETC. IN THE HISTORY OF THIS S**T! U CAN’T EVEN THINK OF THE WORD “RAP” WITHOUT THINKING OF THE NAME JAY-Z FIRST! HE’S NOT THE MIKE JORDAN OF RAP BECAUSE HE SAID IT?? HE’S THE MIKE JORDAN OF RAP BECAUSE HE IS THE MIKE JORDAN OF RAP?!?! LMFAO. PERIOD.

I DAMN NEAR BEAT JORDAN IN AROUND THE WORLD>>>>>>>>
man does his own thing and makes good business moves. G.o.a. T, its hovi baby
YOU KNOW WHAT, JUST FOR SHITS AND GIGGLES, IM GONNA RESPOND TO ALL OF YOUR FUCKERY:
-Yes the “popular opinion” is that Once upon a time almost a FULL DECADE AGO, Nas made a better diss record than Jay-Z. Well let’s see. Since that faithful day TEN FUCKIN YEARS AGO when the “sunshined on a dog’s ass” let’s evaluate the paths that each of their lives took (and don’t worry, i won’t mention all of jay’z accomplishments because it would take too long)….in fact. I’m not even going to compare their careers because if ur as “knowledgeable” about hiphop as u pretend to be, then it’s OBVIOUS that Nas is like the popular kid who peaked in high school with “Ether” and Jay-Z is that kid that was doing his thing, and then eventually becomes the BOSS (literally jayz becomes nas’ boss lmao) of the guy who peaked in high school. And for the Eminem tomfoolery…lmao. Eminem’s lyrics were NO more “potent,” “powerful,” “special,” “important,” “creative,” or ANYTHING better than Jay-Z’s verses, but because Nas made a song about it you dickriding haters who CAN’T WAIT for the opportunity to hate on Jay-Z jumped on the bandwagon. What Eminem actually did is what he ALWAYS does to other rappers…..He spit his verses double or triple cadence with that loud angry voice and it “comes off” as better……it’s the same principle when two people are arguing and even though the quiet relaxed person may be making a better point, the ONLY thing people hear and remember (well ignorant people anyway) is the person that was yelling. Eminem is a better “rap technician” than jay-z as far as composing multisyllabic rhymes, but jay-z is better than eminem in EVERY OTHER F8**G CATEGORY OF RAP U MORON!
-Classic album count?!?!? lmao. Did u say Eminem and tupac have THREE CLASSIC ALBUMS and Jay-Z has two? LMFAO.?A HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH!
YOU KNOW WHAT? after i read that shit, it became very clear that you’re not worth responding to anymore, because thats just f****g stupid?!?! lmfao. nevermind. im done with u. lmao. wow. cant believe u took to time to type that tomfoolery. lmfao.
HOV THE G.O.A.T.
TWO BILLY G.O.A.T.S IN ONE BUILDING
HOV RUN EVERYTHING
@yeapandnope
I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH U AND I LIKE THAT U DON’T WASTE UR TIME ON THAT BAFFON HORUS COS THE GUY IS ALWAYS A JOKE AS HOV HATER
HOV THE G.O.A.T
Repetition is the secret to success. Every day and night the same thing. Boring as hell but everyone I know that are successful (and I equate success with money) have repeated the same thing every day and night for years. Imagine how many time Jordan took the same shot or ran the same play day in and day out. How may times has Carter performed the same song night and day for months at a time. it takes a certain personality.
HOV AND MJ, HOW CAN YOU TOP THAT?! HA!
Mike hella blowed! LMAO, and Jigga is the best, his resume’ says so, he’s the hardest working artist, eminem drops 2 to 3 albums after 2 to 3 year breaks, EM’s great but not consistent enough to his own craft, Nas is iight but being a great rapper dosent many that much when no one is listening, its some rappers as good as nas on the block that just battle rap, after illmatic BIG BLOW THE NIGGA OUT THE WATER AND BECAME KING of new york, he been average ever since like Jay said, and 2pac was not lyrical nigga himself, BIG is only who jay has problem with the air to the thrown, and plus non of these guys are better than rakim or KRS those are the best, Jay is the best of his era hands down!!! Horus your wrong and a hater
@yepANDnope
Cosign!
nd Hov is hiphop like Jordan is basketball!<====act like yall kno!
They met before this, I remember Hov talking about them playing pool and Mike being ultra competitive and shit.
But to be real, I always felt Jay was more parallel to Kobe than MJ, check it:
– Both pop on the scene in ’96
– Both got crucified for paying homage to the ones they looked up to (B.I.G., MJ)
– Neither one gets the proper respect because of those two they picked up the mantle from
– Both were supposedly overtaken by new talent (Lebron, Wayne) only to come back stronger
co-sign sway-z!!!
The only shit is….if HOV is Kobe than he can’t be the GOAT. I don’t know how to reconcile that part but other than that….thats a spot on comparison
Charles Oakley aka the original gangsta in the NBA.
@donblaq
Lol, no doubt, but that’s depending on what you believe. That’s a whole other discussion though….
who is worth more jay or mj
Jay-Z and Chamillionaire are on 2 different levels. Doubt Jordan would have the balls to say it to HOV.
All of you must live in New York or some shit…Jay is great, no doubt. But how can you honestly look at yourself and still say he’s a better than Em? I guess I have to be the one to bring the truth out. First, Jay is great, let me repeat. But besides the “swag rapping” (which Jay does the best), what exactly does he do better than Em? There’s only so many times you can rap about how much money you have, how much you set trends, and your accomplishments. That subject matter gets old. Granted, no one raps about money and accomplishments like Jay: “Me Im dodging raindrops, meaning on Vaca.” ” Nigga if you ballin, then what Im doin can’t be defined”. Great stuff. He’s done “Song Cry”, pretty creative. He’s done “99 Problems”. Great track. “Death of Autotune” was great. On the last two, he still touches on how dope he is. But then you have “Aint no nigga”, “Can I get a”, “Jigga”, “Hard Knock Life”, “Big Pimpin”, “Give it 2 me”, “Money aint a thing”, “Show me what you got”, “Roc Boys”, “On to the next one”….what do they ALL have in common? Same subject matter. Dope tracks, don’t get me wrong but c’mon…hes NOWHERE near the artist Eminem is. Not even close. Em has done “Stan”, “Guilty Conscience”, “The way I am”, ” Without me”, “White America”, “Till I Collapse”, “Sing for the Moment”, “Lose Yourself”, “Cleaning out my Closet”, “Mosh”, “Toy Soldiers”, “Wide Awake”, “Not Afraid”, “Love the way you Lie”. See a difference? All of Em’s tracks have different subject matter. Theres no one more versatile. Em can do ridiculous hooks. He can ride a beat like no ones business, really only Ghost compares. And cmon, he murdered Jay on Renegade, be real. He’s never lost in a battle with ANYONE. Jay has. Em has gotten on tracks with Jay, Biggie, Wayne, Xzibit, Meth, Royce, Kanye, Drake, Tech N9NE, Chino, Lloyd Banks….hes murdered all of them. What is there to argue at this point? Its a bit weird that he’s white, I get it. But, there is not a better rapper on the planet. If you’re argument is that Jay has had a bigger impact in pop culture? Sure, I’ll give you that. But if the question is simply: Who is a better RAP ARTIST? Em, and it’s not close.
I’ll leave you with this accordingly: “If you don’t respect that, your whole prespective is whack, maybe you’ll love me when I fade to black.”
“GREATNESS”
Fuck Jay-Z! Jay-Z is a fucking mason of shit!
@spliggidy splash – First of all all the great tracks you just named are not Jay’s best tracks…. Modern yet jumpy songs…. Hov is the greatest symbolic rapper to pass through the game, the trendiest ever in that his style influences every rapper. Ems flow is bananas and his animation is out of the world but to fact his lyrics at the end of the day carry no weight… In a way you have to measure it from the point of balancing what you say and how you say it….. When em stepped on the forever joint for example most people said he killed everyone when in fact Drake’s verse and kanye’s carried twice the meaning…. You shoult a lil and say words that rhyme with a punch line or 2 and people think ur the best…. This is rap and it doesn’t work that way. ….. All of you keep talking about renegade – Beat made by eminem to suit his style and passed on to jay…. Put em on any classic jay beat and u’ll grab a headache in 2 seconds… i’m not trying to discredit em…. But he’s no B.I.G and that puts him at spot number 3…. Kanye’s catalog is arguably better than ems to be honest……..
1. Jay-z – Like big he comes from the original breed of rappers…Big said it himself… the only rapper he was scared of talent wise was Jay… He was right, the most consistent Rapper ever and still going….
2. Big – Like Jay a true bred rapper. One that saw his time come way too early in life. Amazing that his catalog and weight in the game refuses to die.
3. Em – A natural at metaz and incredible switch ups, The perfect student of rap. Em has said it in his own words that Jay leads hip hop.
4. Kanye – Quality and versatility defined to the finest degree
5. Nas – Peaked early still holds steady at top 5 all time. I bad taste in production and lack of good judgment in studio I believe are to be blamed for a longer run at the top.
Hip Hop is not sales, it is not a fast or slow flow, it’s a movement, a channel that delivers a story or message, a platform that opens the doors to every other subject in life.
Jay has proven to the world that he does it best…..

@spliggidy splash COSIGN MY NIGGA
JAY IS THE FUCKING GOAT WHO HAS BEEN CONSISTANT LIKE JAY NO ONE AND IF BLACK PEOPLE DIDNT HATE ON EACH OTHER SO MUCH HE WOULD HAVE EASILY PUT UP MORE CD SALES THEN ‘EM’ SO SIT DOWN .
HOV IS THE G.O.A.T. BITCHESS
Eminem is not better than Jay-Z musically… Eminem’s flow is bananas and he definitely makes great music, but on some real shit Reasonable Doubt, In My Lifetime Vol. 2, and Blue Print Album go harder than Em albums imho.
Jay-Z’s wacker albums produced some of the dopest singles on some hip hop shit. Big Pimpin’ was on a wack album. So at Jay-Z’s best he’s untouchable and at his not so great he can come up with Top 40 records.
On some battle shit who has Eminem went at???
Benzino??? I can’t recite 2 bars from any Benzino verse ever…
Ja Rule??? Ja actually got at Em the hardest out of everybody in his career. “Em U said ya mom’s is a crackhead and Kim is a known slut, so what’s Hailey gonna be when she grows up? Muuuuurrrrrddddaaaaa!” went way below the belt, but it made me respect Rule to a degree.
I won’t mentiion the pop acts, because I actually Em was a genius for all of his beefs with Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, BSB etc…
Jay-Z on the other went hard @ Nas and lost, but he still went for his.
Jay-Z slowed Prodigy’s momentum hard with the help of the Summer Jam Screen.
Jay-Z scorched Ma$e on Hard Knock Life.
The only thing I could say for Em is he’s never ducked a rap beef/battle, but Jay-Z on the other hand has been a little suspect in that department.
Cam played him out in the Suck it or Not video. JJ Evans was too funny, but Cam had a hard time in DC.
Beans got Jigga heart. Jay scared to reply in a rap to the BROAD SKREET BULLY.
For whatever reason Jay-Z has for not responding to these guys is wack, but @ the end of the day I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and say that I think he can out rap them, but he doesn’t want to give them an opportunity to gain fame from him.
Oh yeah i 4got PAC was dissing Jigga heavy, but 2Pac died shortly after. I think 2Pac would’ve ended Jay-Z’s career if he never died, but that’s not the case and I’ll admit Jay-Z is not better than Pac, BIG, and maybe Nas… But he’s better than Em.
@spiggity splash COSIGN COSIGN COSIGN….Jay had the bigger impact and was/is the “coolest” rapper in the history of hip hop…biggie was probably the rawest…and Nas was like a prodigy chess player (see bobby fischer) who is so much more naturally talented than everyone else at such a young age that they get tunnel vision and forget to polish all their other skills (hence the bad production choices, lack of ability to recognize popular appeal, provide diverse subject matter, use cadence versatility ect)
Em is probably not the best at any one thing, but he has 90 percent of the best quality of each rapper i just mentioned..so that makes him the most COMPLETE hip hop artist to date…
But of course it will always be a black and white thing, not matter what you say…i guess to be honest i can’t expect it not to be…2000 years of hate and seperation (on both sides if you span different continents) arent washed away by a few rap records by Eminem…i just wish people would be more up front with their prejudices…you people with blatent hate thinly disguised as logical arguements are a joke. …when over 50 percent of your post is filled with all caps and exclaimation points, you are not coherently arguing anything
[…] Source […]
Have any of you em riders ever danced with a woman in a club? Like actually touching the woman. That’s a pretty big part of hip hop. And I don’t mean dancing in front of a woman whose doing the same dance.
Anyway, I’ll give you that the boy is nasty and he bodied hov on renegade but the goat?!
Have you heard d’evils, friend or foe (both), where I’m from, u must love me, soon you’ll understand, I made it, star is born. Hov’s got other looks.
But short of that still its Style homie. Style. That’s what this rap shit will always be about. Talk about shoe laces, bubble gum, geopolitics, race relations or bricks. Do it with style and we ride. I don’t hear anybody decrying pac’s lack of versatility. Big’s. Snoop. LL. Kane. Ra. Chuck. Run. While I’m not happy that he is so fixated on drugs and money, I still am amazed at the dozens of ways jay paints that picture lyrically, rhythmically and musically. Furthermore I understand the fixation. Not endorse but understand. Our music still largely resides in and is exported from the hood. If you want to talk about why some cats in the hood are so fixated on the shiny things and the fast way to get them, then you need to touch on a lot more than this rap shit. I celebrate when one of ours gets off that but I don’t hate because a cat has not reached that understanding.
Anyway fuck it. If you ain’t living in the h o v then it ain’t yo stee.
Just a few months ago Lebron would have been that pic as well, but it looks like Jay said Fk Bron, I will just go hang with MJ who is really on my level. He pretty much said its on to the next one, could it be that we are seeing a courtship for Paul to NJ? A the end of the day its dope to see legends coming together, allot of history right there. Props!!!!!!!!!!
As far as all the Em vrs Jay shit, Jay is way more consistent, has swag and is def a trend setter, but I do believe that EM is way more lyrical and especially when he is focused like he is now, Em is a battler rapper, Jay is more of a story teller. They both got there own strengths and weaknesses, but if you wanna go by sales alone, Em kills everyone. Its a shame that when it comes to EM people always turn it racial, cause truth be told. You can paint EM any color you want and he is still going to ill as shit. They both dope at the of the day, living legendss

Correct me if I’m wrong. O_o
Who cares whos better? Whats that gonna do for your lives? IMO, as long as people have JAY and EM in they top 10, no matter how they placed, im satisfied. But i do feel like the people who say Jay is better are a little biased or havent even listened to an Eminem song past his pop singles becuase they saying stuff like he dont tell stories or his lyrics dont carry weight, try listening to Soldier and tell me you dont get shivers from his flow, and have a lyric sheet next to you too so you know what he saying. People that say Em dont talk about shit just dont pay attention to what he saying and put things together, just being dazzled by the flow and thats it
fuck Rick Ross i dont like that man fuck he

JAY-Z AND MJ WHAT’S THAT LIKE ALMOST 2 BILLI IN THE ROOM
Jay Z look sick and shribbled up I guess the devil worshipping is getting to his soul and causing his skin to wrinkle look like he got the “devil disease” rest of the men look well and healthy and happy that is what the devil does to you just look at JAY Z!
nah what the devil does you’ll NEVER know because you worship evil. Evil in it’s purest form. It’s called Abrahamism. Your beliefs are the reason you celebrate a massacre known as Thanksgiving. You celebrate a man who was a christian called Christopher Columbus who destroyed so much of the Natives land no one even knows the name of the land they lived on except for America. You should know that most people who transcend leave Abrahamism because they start to learn the truth and God has opened their minds because they are part of Gods Folks. Which are NOTHING like how your Abrahamic belief system says. How about this read, Isaiah 14:12-13, from that scripture you will learn evils plan, not the devil that entity is not real only a way to explain evil in a humanoid form that lesser men and women can understand. Jesus says the only way to God is through me. That is in direct conflict with the first commandment. Your jesus has said, “I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God, I will also sit on the mount of the congregation. Revelation 22:16 jesus reveals himself as the same person as Lucifer (Lucifer Son of the morning/ jesus bright morning star). Lucifer in Latin is translated as ‘Light Bearer.’ Jesus says he is the light of the world John 8:12. You have been taught a lie your whole life. Maybe one day you will be accepted into the light but until then you will remain in darkness. tah tah
Damn, all this hate and opinions from a picture? Who cares about stats and who the GOAT is? The caption simple reads Jay-Z meets Michael Jordan. This is JUST a picture of MJ and HOV. Two greats in their respective fields. Damn HOEUS…

whats with the matchin rings on the right hands of jigga and jordan
All these comments are just OPINIONS…everyone has their own. Just because you believe Jay is the best and feel the need to write a fucking thesis on why Nas or Em are not does not make your opinion any more valued. Nas, Em and Jay are all GREAT in their own right!
eminem is garbage forever and always Lol
Bigswinger says:They have matching rings. Look @ the 1st pic & see Jordan’s ring. Then look @ the 2nd pic & see Jay’s ring. Both are on the right hand. Hmmmmmmm
^^^
Illuminati rings. And peep the beaded bracelets they’re rockin. MJ’s has a different color of course, signifying his rank/longevity.
I see you are spreading as much misinformation as possible Lol. Jordan is wearing a mood ring and Jay Z tungsten ring. Jordan powder bule beaded necklace and Jay Z Black diamonds necklace. I love how you people try and deflect to make Blacks hate their own. I study Illumination and it’s not my fault I help people they help me back. That’s all it is. People helping each other with the knowledge we learn. Sure enough if you studied then you’d realize a potential you didn’t see in yourself. But from learning there is one thing I’ve found out, some people are not made for the upper echelon. There is a caste system and every human falls into it. Some are on the bottom, like you, others are in the middle-or upper middle and others are top tier. So understand we are here to help people. I met on girl who was very into lame guys. She wanted to do everything to hold herself back so she stayed with the guy even though he’s garbage. I met someone else who takes her life seriously and I help her make business moves.
They all got on the same beads! What is the deal with the necklaces and bracelets???
Why Hov and Jordan got the same rings on???
I didnt believe in that occult stuff before, but these pics prove that no one smokes like MJ smokes.
He is a happy drunk and off that KUSH.
Oh yeah, one more thing. Jay Z’s GOAT title cant be measured in no stats. Its in the heart and minds of our collective consciousness. He already won us over, like MJ. He has been so influential, like MJ. Thank God he aint wasted as hell in these pics, like MJ.
I see you are spreading as much misinformation as possible Lol. Jordan is wearing a mood ring and Jay Z tungsten ring. Jordan powder bule beaded necklace and Jay Z Black diamonds necklace. I love how you people try and deflect to make Blacks hate their own. I study Illumination and it’s not my fault I help people they help me back. That’s all it is. People helping each other with the knowledge we learn. Sure enough if you studied then you’d realize a potential you didn’t see in yourself. But from learning there is one thing I’ve found out, some people are not made for the upper echelon. There is a caste system and every human falls into it. Some are on the bottom, like you, others are in the middle-or upper middle and others are top tier.
yepandNope just provded one of the worst breakdowns of someone elses posts I’ve ever seen. What a god damn idiot.

Spliggidy splash u sound stupid. Just remember to say u are speaking from a white persons point of view. Rap music is predominately black. the things that eminem usually raps about have meaning. But not as big of a meaning to black people. Think about the ratios from white to black. Serial killers.. Mainly white communities concern. Same for pedophile, rapist, and weak minded people. Black people main concern is for bettering themselves or feeling like we are the shit. And for all y’all who say rapping about money and swag will get old or it’s pointless…. Stop dreaming. Just say u wish it would get old. If u want to hear the same message that eminem sends out just listen any rock song. Same angry tone and message. I like songs that make me feel like I’m the shit even if I’m not.
Easy MR Em did all, you took out songs from EM that have a different matter to Kim, His Mother and Haily… so naaahhhh… 11 albums same subject matter every track and still be consistent? I take that over kill kim daily…
Nas didnt kill Jay, for the smart ones when you listen to Take over, you know who was the winner, the victor, listen to Blueprint two, …
Heart of the City, you must love me, lucky me, u dont know, diamonds are forever, Lost ones, Party life, D’evils, Politics as usual.. stop me I go back and forth cause it is so Legendary… even Em in his raps says when I die i better be put besides Jay Z… Jay Z never says such, even Nas says that. every rapper that wants to be known wishes to be part of Jay Z… they wish to be seen with him, even biopolar Game can attest to this, even 50 cents, the reason you all wanna say he aint the best is because you know that his legency will live further than your best any day anytime and get over the illuminati stuff…
Only two rappers get mentioned when Jay’s greatness is Menntioned and they both up in heaven… not really for their best, but for their starts… Pac(not that best but he was uplifting) and BIG(a great story teller)…
Em is good, but aint best… sometimes making a disc scratch with your mouth is just that, a disk scratch…
Nas, is there any reason we should talk about him versus Jay z besides their beef 10yrs ago? name one reason then we good to go…
50 cents: aaahhh lets compare him to the Game please
who is on your list of best so we can have a go at why Jay is better??? ohh Solja Boy tell them yeah… should I…hahahahahahahahahaha you Horus is cake… thats food for thought dont let it go to waste
Man you are preaching the gospel today. Talk to ’em! I co-sign your entire entry.
VEE = another racist ass cat with vague arguements to disguise it…dude i can name you 50 songs that have nothing to do with Em’s mom, Hailey or his mother, that go HARDER than 50 you can name me from any of your favorite rappers….” till i collapse” shyts on everything jay z has put out since reasonable doubt….”when i’m gone” is like tupacs “dear moma” on crack….and you cant even name me a biggie song that i couldnt counter with like ten better eminem tracks….JayZ are 1 and 1a in my book, dont really matter the order…but Em is good? that is really all the respect you give him? dude got commerical, he got underground, he got pop singles, he’s got and entire horrorcore album…hes got motivational shyt…hes got freestyle…battling credentials…cosigns from every single top 50 rapper you can name…and you gonna go with ” Yeah he’s good but” mannnnn GTFO
Don’t be so sensitive. We favor Jay-Z and like his skill level better. I’m 30 and I’ve grown up with them both, but Jay is relevant in my stereo and Em is not. Mind you, I am a hip-hop head. One minute I’m listening to classic Brand Nubian, the next NWA, the next Rick Ross, and onto Hov,etc. Em is a great emcee, but his reality is a white reality, because, well…..he’s white and that’s ok. We just don’t relate to it. Most people don’t remember him from Rawkus Soundbombing or even Outsidaz/D-12 days. I do. To be honest, he was always interesting, but let’s be honest. He blew up because Dr. Dre signed him, produced him, and co-signed him. We veered toward him for Dr. Dre’s production. I know this because I was well aware of him before he signed but did not spend money on his product until Dre scooped him.
I didnt even mention his colour, that tells you who is racist between you and I, all I know is Em is given too much credit and Jay Z is labelled before people can give him his due…
That man gave you Nigga what, nigga who, he gave you Hard knock Life, He gave you This cant be Life, the Dynasty intor, this man gave you 13 albums, 2 with R Kelly, this man, this man, this man Gave you the best of himself…
Yeah Em is one of my favorite but truth be told, Em will never make me think of his rhymes life Jay Z do… He is the only rapper right now with a book being released to analyse his lyrics cos you dumb dumbs are always on blogs saying seee he said “Jesuscant save you life starts when church ends”…illuminati and you dont listen to the body of work…
Give me a double entrendre line from Em, I will give you a couple of triple ones from Jay Z… you call him Mr Subliminal, Mr Entrendre, Trendsetter… Jay is Hova the God, do you believe?
Yes I do!
eminem is garbage. The only reason why he made it so big is because racist whites bought his music. White people who wouldn’t be caught dead listening to rap bought his music as the sole white rapper uncle toms endorsed. I’d NEVER be caught dead claiming eminem is top shelf. When I want parody rap I listen to Real Husband’s Of Atlanta.
The problem with hip hop claimers is they say Jay is at his best when he talks about drugs but at his worst when he school them… Listen to Venus versus Mars… for the Panzi scheme, damnnn shorty just made off… only if you smart you would know what that is…
You say he fell off cos he didnt give you an album saying I run the streets, I kill niggers, I sell drugs… well maybe thats cos he dont know more, he dont run rap he runs the map, even the president of USA listens to him.. how big does one man have to be before we all give him his flowers, when he is dead?
Listen to the whole album, the intro just tells you that I cant keep spoon feeding people, then the second track tells you Im thankful, then track 3 says get off that already, then 4 tells you I run this here, 5 tells you My state of mind is New York, then 6 tells you I got your back, 7 tells you im moving on, 8 tells you I am off my old rhymes, old tracks, old clothing, get off my with that you have to rhyme like RD, just buy RD, you wanna hear RD buy RD, 9 he tells you that we have role models born everywhere daily, then 10 Venus versus mars tells you about the deception of a woman who wont have your back, 11 Already home says Im comfortable where Im at, then 12 Hater tells you that you keep hating on me like I aint the best but the only reason you hate is you wish you were me… then Reminder takes you back to tell you im that dude… So ambitious schools you, tells you dont let nobody tell you, you cant do it, then Forever young tells you, growing is a state of mind, you can be young forever by doing what makes you feel young…
you guys forced Jay to talk about drugs on American gangster, but now its time you all move on with the times, we cant keep adressing the same issue on one man, he is growing… he aint no Eminem cos obviously he respects his mother, loves Beyonce and dont have achild yet so he cant give you songs that say kill you to his mother, cant give you songs like puke for Mariah Carey, he cant diss women who are close to his heart, his last album didnt adress women as bitches, instead it addressed them as woman and told them wanna be a lady or???
You cant be in Tribeca talking about a street in Brooklyn like you there daily, like you still move coke, sometimes all it takes is understanding where you are and then say Im in Tribeca, let me teach these people how to live here, let me tell them to own the trade centre, let me show them that investng is good… we have few black man doing this, KRS one should be far, LL Cool J should be far., Snoop should be far, DMX should be far… their problem is, either they dont wanna get off the street creds that they keep having problems with the law or Snoop has another sex movie…
Jay z gets on Oprah and she gives him 5pages on her magazine because she sees how influencial he is, Jay on Letterman and you here how much he is respected, Jay stay away from an award show and Rap gets respected, he did that until rap got represented more, Jay didnt go to the mainstream, the mainstream came to jay, he didnt leave the hood, the suburbs came to the hood for him… I dont want a Jay Beef with anyone, that was between 96 and 2003… he chose to grow after that, you just cant keep fighting with people because their opinion of you is jealous….
Jay is a better body of work than many of your rappers because he respects his hustle, and nobody can knock that… respect what God gave you and you will see how far God take you with it…
How many songs are dedicated to Jay z, his hustle… Drake sits everyday in interviews and go i am the next Jay, Lil wayne used to do that, Gucci, Jeezy, Kanye, Ross… name a rapper who came out after 2003 who never said im the next JAy, even Lupe… “Hov’s a living legend and I tell you why, everybody wanna be Hov and Hov’s still alive”
MJ look wasted like yeah man
jay-z look like he tryna kill sombody
