Ive lost all respect for Jay-Z

[nowhere]

Jay-Z is stupid, I can't wait to see Naz whoops his ass in this so called "up coming battle" between them that is being expected.

whooopie i dont mind some rap, but the whole attitude that goes with it, and the masses of 14 year old cunts because of it who think they're their favourite rapper just annoys me

[cutthecashflow]

hahah yea Im not a huge rap fan either. But this Jay Z cat has always came off as a little strange to me.

[clashcityrocker]

doesn't really surprise me... 99% of rap nowadays is just bullshit some "gangsters" put on an album to rake in a LOT of cash.

[Sammy]

Yeah i had never any respect for Jay-Z in the first place

just spouts a load of shit, and it seems, unorigional shit.

Exactly, unoriginal blabbering shit, no talent, just clothes

[Guest]

SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!












I'd consider all this borrowing an homage to the greats. That is a TINY fuckin list mannn
Do you have any idea how many lyrics jay-z has? and what a small percentage of those are in that little quote box.
jay n biggie were amigos.

OH JESUS JESUS JESUS I AM SOOOOOOOOO ANGRY RIGHT NOW.

It's fuckin Jay-Z. Please, go listen to the reasonable doubt album n it should become apparent. OR the 7-minute freestyle with Big L...or watch "fade to black" you'll realise he is a lyrical fucking genious.
And this is nothing compared to all the artists that steal from him. And all the artists that steal beats but I doubt they have any respect for the original song..they're just lookin for cash. [ex: gwen stefani takin biggie's Big Poppa beat]
seriously everyone in this fuckin thread [cept a few] have no knowledge of jay-z.

Please just stop insulting my freakin........i don't know, ITS JAY FUCkING Z!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGH! I can't even explain how sad a thread like this makes me.

thats the funniest thing i've read all day... probably because this whole thread has been a build up for the jay-z fan on the forum..

[clashcityrocker]

yeah it is a rather small list compared to all his original material, but it goes to show how repetitive rap usually is

Artist: Jay-Z
Album: Reasonable Doubt
Song: Regrets
Typed by: OHHLA Webmaster DJ Flash

Stress
Sunshine, geyeah

I sold it all from crack to o-pium, in third person
I don't wanna see em, so I'm rehearsin
with my peoples high to GM, from a remote lo-cation
in the BM, scopin the whole situation like, "Dayamm!"
Metamorphic, as the dope turns to cre-am
but one of these buyers got eyes like a Korean
It's difficult to read em, the windows to his soul
are half closed, I put the key in
Pulled off slow, hopin my people flee-in
Chink tried to knock the only link that tied me in
Coppers was watchin us through nighttime binoculars
This time they got us on tape, exchangin dope for dollars
Make me wanna, holler back at the crib in the sauna
Prayin my people bailed out like Time/Warner
Awaitin call, from his kin not the coroner
Phone in my hand, nervous confined to a corner
Beads of sweat second thoughts on my mind
How can I ease the stress and learn to live with these regrets
This time... stress... givin this shit up... fuck

Chorus One:

This is the number one rule for your set
In order to survive, gotta learn to live with regrets
On the, rise to the top, many drop, don't forget
In order to survive, gotta learn to live with regrets
This is the number one rule for your set
In order to survive, gotta learn to live with regrets
And through our travels we get seperated, never forget
In order to survive, gotta learn to live with regrets

As sure as this, Earth is turning souls burning
in search of higher learning turning in every direction seeking direction
My moms cryin cause her insides are dyin
her son tryin her patience, keep her heart racin
A million beats a minute, I know I push you to your limit
but it's this game love, I'm caught up all in it
They make it so you can't prevent it, never give it
you gotta take it, can't fake it I keep it authentic
My hand got this pistol shakin, cause I sense danger
like Camp Crystal Lake and
don't wanna shoot him, but I got him, trapped
within this infrared dot, bout to hot him and, hit rock bottom
No answers to these trick questions, no time shit stressin
My life found I got ta live for the right now
Time waits for no man, can't turn back the hands
once it's too late, gotta learn to live with regrets

Chorus Two:

You used to hold me, told me that I was the best
Anything in this world I want I could posess
All that made me want is all that I could get
In order to survive, gotta learn to live with regrets... (when I was young)
(repeat 2X)

I found myself reminiscin, remember this one
when he was here he was crazy nice with his son
I miss him, long as I'm livin he's livin through memories
He's there to kill all my suicidal tendencies
In heaven lookin over me, or in hell, keepin it cozy
I'm comin life on these streets ain't what it's supposed to be
Remember Newton, mutual friend well me and him feudin
On your life I tried to talk to him
But you know niggaz, think they guns can stop foe niggaz
Frontin like they're, Big Willie but really old niggaz
Hoe niggaz, this year I'm sho' niggaz think I'm slippin
I'm bought to send you a roommate, no bullshittin
for my hustle's goin too well to hit him
You was right niggaz want you to be miserable wit em
Anyway, I ain't tryin to hear it, I think I'm touched
this whole verse I been talkin to your spirit, a little too much

Chorus One: repeat 2X

Roc-A, Roc-A, Roc-A, Roc-A-Fella y'all

BAHHHHHHHHHHH and you'd have to know jay-z's method of rapping before you could make a thread like this!!!!!! Anyone who watches "fade to black" or listens to reasonable doubt will certainly have a newfound respect for him.

how can you listen to that shit though, even when hes not ripping lyrics from other artists, it all sounds the damn same... there is no origionality in rap.. its all about one of very few things, usually complaining about what a hard life *insert rappers name here* has had.

Hit the brakes for a second...

Ok Nowhere, since you are so confident who is your favorite rock musician? Lets see if you have better taste in music by comparing two artists from two different genre's, Jay-Z and your favorite artist. After you tell us, then maybe the argument can continue in a more specific direction that might actually lead to something. Because everyone know's that saying "there is no originality in rap" isn't going to lead to a resolution that's worth jack shit.

[flynn]

bravo! good call man

[BGDetroit]

He came out with a song that was supposed to be a hardknock song and has "annie" in the background...

He was a bitch when he came out, Hes still a bitch. Never had a drop of respect for the bitch.

[Arik ^]

Lets get him in a knife fight

[Guest]

meh.
I will always love and respect him regardless of anyone else's opinion.

I could go on n on praising him for a lot of his accomplishments and all of his talent but what's the point? My opinion is the only one that matters to me and I've got no need to change it when I'm so damn right.
