Numerous lists have been created to highlight the best of 2019 as the year comes to a close. JAY-Z threw his hat into the “best of” ring too by curating a 40-song TIDAL playlist featuring a wide range of artists.
Hov included his wife Beyoncé, of course, along with his friend-turned-foe-turned-friend again Kanye West. The Brooklyn-bred rapper also strayed outside of mainstream acts with Roc Marciano, Rod Wave and Fivio Foreign making the list.
Megan Thee Stallion, who’s managed by Roc Nation, and DaBaby — both named two of HipHopDX’s Best Rappers of 2019 — appear via their hit single “Cash Shit.” Russ made the cut as well and took to Twitter to send a message to his haters.
Jhené Aiko, Tyler, The Creator, Nipsey Hussle, YoungBoy Never Broke Again and another DX Best Rappers of 2019 honoree, Freddie Gibbs, were among the others in Hov’s Top 40.

Jayz looks like an idiot with that hair lol
Oh, btw, I’m not being racist. I understand it’s natural hair, but my natural white hair looks retarded too if I let it run wild.
Don’t explain yourself fam… He does look like a clown lol
Lil silly tbh
Hes just trying to stay relevant. Theres no way mr reasonable doubt listens to any of the shitty rap he listed on there.
I promise you I was going to say the same.
No way the dude that wrote this list listens to most of that stuff.
With that said, it’s cool to see Roc Marci and Freddie Gibbs get some love
Roc Marci is Jay Z favorite rapper. I has mentioned this a lot behind the scenes. I believe that is partially the reason why Griselda is managed by them
So you’re just going to omit one of the best MC’s (signed to your lable of all) of your little playlist like that?
Who the artist u speak of
Rapsody
It’s long been known that Jay Z’s bulge is comparable to a pop can
Jigga listens to a **** load of trash now. few joints are decent. probably all connected to Roc Nation anyway
How people not gonna recognize this as simple promo? Here’s my playlist of all the new stuff everybody else listened to this year, now go to my app and play it. There’s more knowledge at the tip of our fingers than there has ever been in history, yet we’re fucking stupid. And poor Russ thinks Jay and Rihanna listen to him….hahahahahaha
