Jay Z, Kanye West, and Lil Wayne are the three artists portrayed in the music video to Atlanta, Georgia rapper J. Monty’s record, “100 Bars, Pt. 3.” On the song, the musician speaks on Lucifer being a gifted musician, and later beginning to think that he could become God.
In the music video, as J. Monty raps along to the song, three men wearing Jay Z, Kanye West, and Lil Wayne masks can be seen in the background.
On “100 Bars, Pt. 3,” J. Monty raps: “I got some trueness to tell / Let’s take it back to where Lucifer fell / He was the most beautiful angel / His body was home to where music [dwelled] / It was music that made him so beautiful / Spitting out bars like his tooth was in jail / Then he started thinking that he could be God / That’s where he was rebuked and expelled.”
While speaking exclusively with Rapzilla, J. Monty broke down the music video. He revealed why he chose to incorporate the Jay Z, Kanye West, and Lil Wayne masks.
According to the rapper, all three of the artists mentioned have in some manner “tried to liken themselves to God.” He explained that such a comparison “can be very dangerous.”
“I started the idea to build these masks to represent or to give a message about artists who have, in their pride, tried to liken themselves to God or to a god,” J. Monty said. “I think that’s a very dangerous concept, simply because we’ve seen in it scripture before. The person who embodied that concept is the number one enemy of the kingdom of God, and his number one sin was trying to be like God, trying to become God in Heaven, trying to take God’s place. And because of his pride and rebellion, he got kicked out of Heaven.”

Dope track and video, God bless J. Monty!
Interesting no mentioned of Eminen or Drake who also compare themselves to god quite often.
Jay Z does likened himself to a God, he is a god. I worship the ground he raps on.

Ignorant comments from ignorant folks displaying their ignorance… They simply unlearned.
Jay Monty!! Songs fire!! Never shrink back bro!! I feel for those who question the validity of the Word of God…but if they would ever seek the Lord who lives and reveals they too would know. Its not just a book knowledge you have but your encounter with the Lord is evident in your music. Praying for those who lack trust, but its because they lack the encounter. I pray that God would reveal more truth to you for you to share and pull those out of darkness. Love you broths!! Tell the wifey hi! ?
Really? HIP HOP dx has HIP HOP on it? who knew. Great originality Monty. Enjoyed it! “the devils dumb”
Without God atheist wouldn’t exist, I always wonder; why atheists don’t spend as much time questioning Satan’s existence.
