I MEAN RICK WOULD GO HYPE LIKE ” I THINK IM BIG MEECH” , BUT DIE THAT SHIT DOWN FOR HIS “MAYBACH MUSIC TRAKS” .. IM JUST SAYING SWITCH UP THE FLOW STYLE ONCE IN THE WHILE, OTHER THAN THAT, MEEK ALWAYS MAKE U FEEL HIS SHIT .. STR8 TRAK.. JUST NOT FOR MEEK
best comment ever, grammy written all over this comment. lmfaoooo. I dont like police Music. Anything Ross touches is tainted by the sound of police siren. lmfaooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
this song is stupid!!!! I cant deny it Maybach makes the best music right now, this is the laid back think and smoke to song…love it..Im sorry but his album and Ti album im looking forward to…kendrick is talented but he’s just a “Rapper” Meek milli is a hiphop star…kendrick raps too fast just to be diffrent and you dont catch it..plus kendrick doesnt know how to make a good song just feature but he is talent but i’ll take meek
no you dont catch it. People who know hip hop can easily. It takes skill to spit that fast..stop hearing the songs and start listening to the MUSIC NIGGA
Kinda weak and forgettable. Really wouldn’t feel any kinda way if I never heard it again. Slap yourselves. Kendrick has already murdered this dude on a track there’s not even a comparison
this song has more quality than anything kendrick lamar put out from good kid besides rapping fast doesnt mean u re nice talking bout getting killed check out how pop ass drake annhilated rapper on his own shit.
Radio crowd loves the “bangers” and these internet pussies panties get weak when they hear soft shit like this. Please this shit is lame boring as beat same boring as Meek Nas is always gonna come correct don’t really care for the singing
as Marjorie said I cant believe that a single mom can earn $9575 in four weeks on the internet. did you see this web link (Click on menu Home more information) http://goo.gl/DLkEK
just as Diana responded I didn’t even know that some people able to get paid $8683 in 4 weeks on the internet. did you read this web site (Click on menu Home more information) http://goo.gl/ZBo8k
damn yall some hatin ass dudes man. Weezy been killin the game since his cash money days. Look how much he’s done for hip hop and all yall do is hate. He’s given us classics, and I agree his recent stuff doesn’t top Carter 1 and 2, but you can’t deny he’s top 5 right now(top 3 actually).
So many other wack rappers and yall choose to hate on Weezy. I bet yall them lame ass “real hip hop” fans who only bump Common(who sucks) and fuckin Mos Def. Them old ass fools don’t even sell units, plus Wayne is lyrically shitting on them. Carter 2 still the best rap album of 2000 era. Fuck anyone who says any different(and Carter III is shitting on the majority of whats coming out today, including yall lame as opinions)
No disrespect but black folks don’t know SHIT called LOGIC. Listen, if NO ONE (including you) wanna FESS UP and TELL then how the fuck are the police supposed to know anything and how the fuck are you or anybody else gonna cry about justice?
Niggas talk all that snitch stuff when it’s another statistic but when it’s their family member or their man they wanna cry justice. Look, niggas in LA KNOW Orlando killed 2pac but no one wanna fess up cuz they’ll get labelled a snitch. Instead they rather go at Funk Flex or Suge Knight and use them as scape goats and act tough with them on the Internet or via records.
How is the police gonna lock any of these criminals up if nobody is fessin up? And then when the feds DO lock niggas up y’all cry “the police is lockin’ brothas/rappers up”. I feel sorry for african americans, y’all have the most fucked up mentality out in the world, but yet still think it’s worse overseas LMAO. I live in both places btw and yes i’m black.
sometimes its illyminati then its suge then it diddy then he’s alive again. you pac fans are the biggest idiots in hip hop. no wonder everyone hates you
In this constant debate about Jay-Z being the best ever I read things like “Nas will destroy Jay-Z” or “Eminem got a better flow than Jay”
Those are OPINIONS.
When will you fools learn that you can’t win a debate with OPINIONS. Every rapper has a different style based on where they are from, the time period in which they were most successful, and their unique personality. We all can go on for days about our personal preferences but in a debate criteria like this is completely IRRELEVANT and automatically BIASED.
The only way to win a debate is with cold hard FACTS. And the fact of the matter is that, when you weigh all of the tangible criteria (Sales, Critical Acclaim, Consistency, Longevity, and Impact) Jay-Z makes the strongest case for the G.O.A.T.
Eminem has sold nearly twice as much as Jay-Z, and he is Jay’s equal when it comes to longevity and impact. But Em lacks the consistency or critical acclaim that Jay-Z has (Im not talkin cult/fanboy classics, Im talkin CERTIFIED classics. XXL/Rolling Stone/Source approved) Eminem is VERY close though.
Nas has enjoyed more critical acclaim and more overall respect in the hip-hop community through the years. And he’s definitely equal to Jay with longevity and impact. But he hasn’t been no where near as much of a consistent presence in hip-hop as Jay has. And he is obviously lacking in the sales department.
Lil Wayne just may be the most consistent rapper of all time. He’s no slouch when it comes to longevity and impact either. His glaring flaw? In his 12 year career Lil Wayne has yet to drop a truly critically acclaimed classic album (and it can be done in this climate. just look at kanye’s discography). Also, contrary to popular beleif, Wayne lacks in the sales department. Sure, Tha Carter III and IV are blockbuster albums, but his OVERALL sales of 10 mil US pale in comparison to Jay-Z’s 31 mil.
2pac is a touchy subject. When it comes to impact, pac takes the cake. No other rapper touched the world like 2pac did. He, like Em, has also sold more than Jay and he was very consistent in his time. Sadly, 2pac passed before his time which allowed Jay-Z to surpass him in longevity and critical acclaim.
LL Cool J was the prototype for what a G.O.A.T. could be. He has enjoyed the most longevity, and he was fairly consistent, but his sales, acclaim and overall impact are no where near the likes of 2pac, Eminem, and ofcourse Jay-Z.
Biggie, Rakim, Common, Snoop, the list goes on. All of these MC’s are great but none of them have the total G.O.A.T. package like Jay-Z does.
Jay-Z is the 3rd highest selling rapper of all time, and the richest. He’s one of the most acclaimed (perhaps only rivaled by his boy Kanye). He dropped multi-platinum albums YEARLY from 96′-03′, and he is still going strong today. He’s been in the game since 88′. He’s impacted hip-hop in countless ways from starting one of the 1st successful MC-owned record labels, to being the 1st non-athlete with a signature shoe, to surpassing the likes of Elvis with #1 albums.
Jay-Z is without question the Greatest MC Of All Time. Period. You don’t have to listen to him everyday (Im currently on my Kendrick wave). You don’t even have to like him. But for goodness sake, RESPECT THE FACTS.
The Mogul aspect has nothing to do with the rapper.
Nas is better at times than Jay in areas of storytelling and content. Nas is a cornball when it comes to selecting production and his career is irrelavent at this point. It is ironic in me saying this but Ross, 2 Chainz and Drake are outselling him. Nas has taken so many L’s as a human being that he is dilusional by saying Life Is Good. Instead of putting out a Disc with everything that’s happening recently, he tries to come off slick as if he is a Lyrical Drake but fails. Life Is Good was terrible because it doesn’t satisfy a fans interest. For example, BP3 was trash. We all know that. But the purpose of that album was to make a tourable album. That CD has 10 songs that are radio friendly with about 5 megahits. That albums purpose was for Jay to get his money back from Def Jam and he suceeded. Nas could not do that if his life depended on it.
Eminem shits on Jay-Z in technical ability but Eminem has no content. What faggot releases Not Afraid and We made you as hip hop songs? Eminem is beyond rap. He cannot make a song, do a feature or smile without getting approval from Jimmy. Em has the potential to shit on Jay, Big and Pac but because his image is in such control, he loses is place as the GOAT. Jay does the same in delivering the music but he has content that the White Executives don’t pick up and the consumer can decide to hear.
Jay’s Reasonable Doubt can be put up against Illmatic and MMLP and it is not better than those albums but still a true classic but it’s towards the bottom of the top 10 of all time.
Being the richest should have nothing to do with who is the best. You just hurt your own arguement.
Vol.2, BP1, RD, AG are all classics. Jay’s music stands up against Big, Pac, Em, and Nas and is overall evolving where the dead ones couldn’t and where the living two just can’t take there.
Jay-Z is the best rapper of all time but you gotta be able to defend the music not cash.
hes been doin longer and no corny shit, only thing u can take away from ghost is he hasnt tried to appeal to woman or kids, nothin but grown man shit, fuck al yall frauds! nas tight but fuck j and your argument with sales proves u dont know shit
Jay is ok at best. There are many emcees that are much nicer than him. Stop wanting to convince the world of your biased opinion you fanboy.
Those are just YOUR criteria! Youre no different than the people you speak of. Some of us care about skills, lyrics, flow, delivery, and those are our criteria when judging the goat and the hard facts that must sting you is that Em and NaS are just more skilled than Jay is when it comes to rhyming, plus who gives a fuck about sales when were talking about the greatest of all time emcee.
NaS ethered the crap out of Jay to the point where he is now scared to battle anyone and just chooses to ignore them out of fear of losing another battle.
N.Y. City declared NaS the winner of the battle on Hot 97 and Jay was left stuttering in disbelief when he first heard ether.
NaS made an even more scathing version of ether first but his record label didnt want to put it out and had him make it softer and not as brutal towards Jay.
Eminem (a real battle emcee) has gone on record and said NaS won the battle.
Many many other rappers have also said Jay lost to NaS.
Ether was hard as fuck but what Jay said in Supa Ugly is what Pac claimed he did to Big and dug a dagger in his heart.
If you are a true fan of Hip Hop you will know that Supa Ugly is so wrong and that kind of shit could have incited real violence (either one or both dead) if Nas caught feelings but fact is Nas’s career is at a stand still now.
You can’t just walk away from that. Jay’s feeling got hurt when Ether came out. I was blown the fuck away. Supa Ugly went over so many heads because the flow was off and the beat sucked. The content is the killer for Nas and thats why he lost that and long term
Me and tha boy A.I. got more in Common than just ballin and rhymin
Get It?
More in Carmen
I came in ya Bentley backseat
Skeeted in Jeep
Left condoms in tha baby seat
Here nigga
Tha gloves is off

And since you infatuated with sayin tha gay shit
Yes u was kissin my dick when u was kissin that bitch
Crazy bitch
You thought I was boning Ranette
You calling Carm’ a hundred times I was boning her neck
You got a baby by that broad
You cant disown her yet
When does ya lies end?
When does the truth begin?
When does reality set it?
Or does it not matter
Gotta hurt that I’m ya baby mama’s favorite rapper
And ask your current girl
She know whats up
Holla at a real nigga

Both of Eminem’s albums (The Marshall Mathers LP and The Eminem Show) have gone diamond! Which absolutely shits on Jay Z’s record sales, but I bet what you didn’t know is that from the late 90’s to early 00’s Jay-Z was getting funding from an unknown source (Reckefellers). As a reward for selling out Jay-Z was getting the most radio air play out of any rapper alive. This is why rappers from Nas to DMX hated Jay-Z, but yet you want to talk about him being the best through hard work and shit. Jay-z ain’t nothing but a dick sucking faggot and even though he got help from the elite Eminem was still able to whoop his ass in sales and lyrical ability.
you are a dumass! Biggie not the total package????
Biggie had:
– the flow
– wit
– dope storyteller
– freestyles
– didnt write his lyrics, his shit was straight from the dome.
– made hardcore track, rnb tracks, commercial tracks, underground tracks.
eat a dick you faggot. Oh and Pac wasnt consistent. His first 2 albums were decent shit he blew up with MATW and AEOM. by the way AEOM album had a lot of filler
love Meek Millz, if their is one thing i hate its that he’s in arms reach of Rozay. Rozay is a whack-ass rapper with the same lines and message all the time.
Meek Millz adresses the lack of authenticity in the game in his “behind the scenes of Dreams and Nightmares part 1” where he states he wants to give people that tony montana shit with new verses and everything. Hopefully, hopefully he delivers cuz he can be something special. and i would hate for him to fake it just cuz he’s made it.

Sorry but Jay never stood a chance against NaS and that even without him having released this version!
Jay is super rich and hes got aight skills but he will never be able to say he won the battle. NEVER! Shit Jay himself admitted he was defeated when he said………………………………………..
“Since I would not lose they tried to help him cheat, but I will not lose for even in defeat there’s a valuable lesson learned so it evens it up for me”
Yes fanboys he said “ME”
So there you have it, now i want to see you try and argue against Jays own words.
I don’t understand how people can even mention Nas and Jay in the same sentence. I like Jay too, but he’s no where near Nas skill level. You can compare Nas to Ghostface or AZ or someone in terms of lyrics, but not Jay… Jay-Z doesn’t isn’t that skilled an emcee.
but who cares at the end of the day besides stupid fanboys? sometimes i like nas sometimes i like jay. i like them both and they are both legends. niggas still stuck in 2001 like takeover just came out GROW UP
I find it funny how Jay admits on blueprint 2 that he lost the battle but yet some genius here tries to use that song as a way to defend Jay. SMH!
“SINCE I WILL NOT LOSE THEY TRIED TO HELP HIM CHEAT, BUT I WILL NOT LOSE FOR EVEN IN DEFEAT THERES A VALUABLE LESSON LEARNED SO IT EVENS IT UP FOR ME”
-JAY-Z
Only on a hiphopdx comment board can a Meek Mill song turn into a debate about whos better between Nas and Jay-Z. Shaking my head at this foolishness….
I agree! I never understood the fight between the fans anyway, the beef was between 2 legends of the game and the fans won. got a bunch of great joints from them.
This song wasn’t bad at all. Pretty good actually.
On a sidenote…..Hiphopdx, your comment section has deteriorated drastically. Ya’ll should do like everyone else…and make it so people have to log in to make comments, or get rid of a comment section all together like Pitchfork.com.
HI WE MMG NIGGA, WE LOOOOOVE USING OTHER BIGGER/BETTER RAPPERS ON OUR SONGS FOR SHINE SO PPL LIKE THE PERSON ABOVE (heaven) CAN HAVE SOMETHIN TO RAVE ABOUT COZ WITHOUT THE NAS, ANDRE 3K, JAY-Z, K.DOTS FEATURES WE JUST WOULDNT GET THE ATTENTION.
THIS IS HOW THE COMMENTS GO WITH MMG SONGS :
1. yoh that Nas verse was fire, i have no idea what Ross or Meek was rappin about its probly the same thing they rap bout on all songs but that Nas verse nigga WOW.
2. Just saw the tracklist im lookin forward to track 5 with Nas, 8 with jay-z, 2 with Andre 3k, 7 with Drake,10 with Kanye n track 1 with Kendrick lamar coz of the features, fuck tracks without features who whats to hear just Ross or Meek on theyre own lol.
SONG IS AVARAGE, HURD IT B4 MMG TYPE OF SONG IF MMG CARE ABOUT MEEK THEY MUST PUSH BACK HIS RELEASE DATE AND LET HIM START AGAIN AND DO HIM AND NOT THIS COPY N PASTE MMG STYLE OF SAME BEATS WITH BIG NAME FEATURES AND A JOHN LEGEND VERSE COZ LETS BE HONEST THERES NO HYPE OR FOR THIS ALBUM WHICH DROPS IN 12DAYS AND MEEK AINT GOT A BUZZING HIT HEADLINING THE ALBUM.
I FEEL SO BAD FOR THE GUY MEEK MILL.
Meek Mill…The current and future hope of HIPHOP.In an era where Gucci mane,Waka Flaka,soulja boy…and all em so called “swag” out idiots exist for the sole aim of killing “this thing of ours” called hiphop. Meek Mill The future.Much love,loving this track
niggas talk about struggle and people give it a straight 5 but when real niggas get out of the struggle they start saying they fell of? fix up Hip hop fans, hip hop aint dead but y’all just ignorant. GOOD KID M.A.A.D CITY & DREAMS AND NIGHTMARES!
Yo this just me, but I feel like almost all of meek’s “great” songs have Rick Ross on them, like Rosay’s gotta let this man do his own thing and cut out all his own face time. Not to mention Rick literary talks about how he’s got money now, where as with meek and nas they really got into the struggle and the dream in their verses
If dreams and nightmares is anywhere short of a classic I will lose all hope in record companies, for years Meek mill has but out the best mixtapes. If his album isnt as good it will be sad.
MAYBACH MUSIC WINNING ON ALL FRONTS,GOT THE HOTTEST MC IN THE GAME PERIOD(RICKY ROZAY)AND THE ONLY HOPE AND FUTURE OF HIPHOP ON THEIR ROSTER(MEEK MILL),GOT A MASTER WORDSMITH RAPPER(WALE) GOT THE MOST PROMISING RAPPER IN THE GAME(STALLEY)…SHIIIIIT ITS ABOUT TO BE A PROBLEM……
meek got killed on his own shit. i wish he would stick to one genre…preferably the street shit which made him popular. he didnt even come out with his album yet and hes already a sellout…3 for nas/ross/legend
I’m gonna give the song props because its real instruments being played on this one but lyrically they could have all came better! Singing wise…John Legend needs to figure out something…I don’t know what yet but SOMETHING!! That lounge-singer sound he does doesn’t fit…
the problem with rap is that it has run its course. The difference between the outgoing generation, and the generation that is coming up, is that the outgoing generation created it’s own form of music. When the older folks were talking about music being trash, it was because they didn’t understand it, it was a different genre. Now instead of making up there own form of music, these younger folks using the same genre. so when the older folks say it’s trash now, it has more meaning, cuz they understand the music.
I say all that to say, this is nothing special, it’s just the same ish we been hearing over and over
Good point, and absolutely true. The worst part of it is, these rappers are FROM our era, so they know better, they just don’t care because they got turnt out.
yeah yeah yeah…youre all rich, you have maybachs, boats, money popping out of the vault, champagne corks flying around everywhere, chandeliers, shoes made out of fuckin’ komodo dragon and shit, and youre better than all of your listeners…we get it…what else ya got? Nothin’? didn’t think so. Niggas sound like bitches rappin’ all this bullshit all the time. Congratulations you’re rich, now act like you seen a dollar before and stop actin’ like a monkey with a gold chain on.
‘real recognize real’ is what all the fake niggas say. What other hip-hop cliches you got? how ’bout ‘don’t hate the playa, hate the game’, or ‘scared money don’t make money’, or ‘stop hatin’ and start congratulatin’….you’re wack, and I’m embarassed that you’re from NY. You must be from Greenwich Village or some shit.

Idiot, he can’t outsell 50 now, what make you think he could in 2003. you forgot 50 sold over 10 million on one album, and you comparing that to a dude that can’t even go platinum once. FOH!!!
only real dude in MMG is Meek, and I guarantee you he gonna leave after his album flop. Do you realize he doesn’t have a hit single out. Outside of them singles he had out for about 5 months now ain’t none of his album ish getting any burn. So when he had hit singles out they dropped Wale and Ross’ album, but now they don’t have any hit out for him, they planning on releasing his album. I guarantee you when he flops, he gonna want out of MMG
^^ dumbass, are you some form of special retarded. did you read dukes comment. He said “Outside of them singles he had out for about 5 months.” Do you realize Amen was on his mixtape that came out 5 months ago. He’s talking about singles from the album dumbass. sometimes I wonder if people on here can even comprehend a though before they speak.

It is ironic in me saying this but Ross, 2 Chainz and Drake are outselling him. Nas has taken so many L’s as a human being that he is dilusional by saying Life Is Good. Instead of putting out a Disc with everything that’s happening recently, he tries to come off slick as if he is a Lyrical Drake but fails. Life Is Good was terrible because it doesn’t satisfy a fans interest. For example, BP3 was trash. We all know that. But the purpose of that album was to make a tourable album. That CD has 10 songs that are radio friendly with about 5 megahits. That albums purpose was for Jay to get his money back from Def Jam and he suceeded. Nas could not do that if his life depended on it.
Eminem shits on Jay-Z in technical ability but Eminem has no content. What faggot releases Not Afraid and We made you as hip hop songs? Eminem is beyond rap. He cannot make a song, do a feature or smile without getting approval from Jimmy. Em has the potential to shit on Jay, Big and Pac but because his image is in such control, he loses is place as the GOAT. Jay does the same in delivering the music but he has content that the White Executives don’t pick up and the consumer can decide to hear.
Jay’s Reasonable Doubt can be put up against Illmatic and MMLP and it is not better than those albums but still a true classic but it’s towards the bottom of the top 10 of all time.
Being the richest should have nothing to do with who is the best. You just hurt your own arguement.
Vol.2, BP1, RD, AG are all classics. Jay’s music stands up against Big, Pac, Em, and Nas and is overall evolving where the dead ones couldn’t and where the living two just can’t take there.
Jay-Z is the best rapper of all time but you gotta be able to defend the music not cash.
I use to think the same thing, but if you pay attention, the only reason why Jay stays relevant is b/c he aligns himself with who is hot at the moment. Jay hasn’t put out a classic rap song in years. He had his run of greatness, I give you that, and he will go down as one of the greatest, but GOAT, I disagree. You said to look at facts, but I don’t think you are looking at facts. Without all the collabo’s, Jay would not be where he is right now, he rides the wave of whoever is popping at the moment.
To the idiots below, one a couple of y’all must be white and do not know anything hip-hop music except for what you read in mags or on the net. And to the cat saying the kid from Queens is irrelevant because of his personal life, you’ve been to this dude’s house, ate on the same table. Christ, dude must have broken your heart or something. Get a life, money. life is Good. You could be working a 9 to 5 and life is good, could have millions in the bank and life is good, could be locked up somewhere and life is good. Get the point, it’s all about how you dust yourself up, take your blows, knuckle up and swing back, if not in this fight, the next one. Fuck outta here with your bullshit dissertation.
I DISAGREE WITH YOUR PATHTIC DICKIRIDING BRAINWASH TACTICS.
LIFE IS GOOD IS NOT GOLD YET GENIUS, WHAT ABOUT LOST TAPES OR DISTANT RELATIVES? THAT’LL BE A LONG LIST IF I TYPE UP ALL THS NAS SINGLES TAHT DIDN’T GO GOLD
@The Azreal-apologies to you and all, true race ought to stay out of it but clowns such as @ JERRY need to go back to sucking their heavy metal stars a la Manson-Jerry, YOU ARE THE DICKRIDER, YOU ARE BRAINSWASHED, most likely Nikki what the fuck is her name is yr idol, probably wanna dress like her et al., and @Anon did state the facts, do you understand ‘slow earner’? Hello,Jerrrrry do you speak English? DUMB FUCK.
WELL, FAG-MAGEDON IF I MUST REITERATE (IT MEANS RE-STATE BY THE WAY ILLITERATE FUCK). FIRST, NOT EVERY NAS ALBUM WENT GOLD. THESE ALBUMS INCLUDE LOST TAPES, DISTANT RELATIVES, AND MOST CURRENTLY LIFE IS GOOD. SECOND, HE ONLY HAS TWO GOLD SINGLES TO HIS NAME (IF I RULED THE WORLD & STREET DREAMS). SO SORRY TO SHOOT YOUR PHONY HERO DOWN, WELL NOT REALLY (I SAY PHONY SINCE MOST OF HIS SHIT HE DOES NOT EVEN WRITE AND HE JUST WITNESSED THE RHYMES AS IN NEVER WAS THE SHOOTER OR SHOOTED) WHICH MAKES PERFECT SENSE FOR HIM NOW TO BE ON EVERY TRACK POSSIBLE WITH OFFICER RICKY. I KNOW THIS HURTS BRO BUT THE 90’S ARE OVER AND YOU NEED TO FIND A NEW FAVORITE RAPPER, PREFERABLY ONE WHO IS REAL AND WRITES HIS OWN RHYMES.
THERE HOW WAS THAT FOR ENGLISH BRAINLESS NAS STAN?
Nah, fucker, the only fag here is you, money, and no favorite rapper bullshit here as I stated before go listen to fucking Nikki cause that is your favorite rapper and second the fact you commented and responded means you’re the dicksuCker here. Son, I live and breathe the streets, and when I sit back I listen to shit I can relate to. Moreover, DO you live in the projects? you pulled any triggers lately? Oh, I get it , you do yr WITNESSING from your comfortable, lily-white suburban ‘hood’; Most of your heroes are phony, ahem, Nikki, lil’ Wayne, Ross are phonies. Heroes? Nah, I’m a grown Black man, money. You on the other hand are trying to live life vicariously through these rappers, hoping to get a glimpse of that perceived ‘black’ experiences i.e. weed smoking, sambo sam acting, Gucci-mane lookin;, minstrel show performing,dumb asses negroes et… GO FUCK YOURSELF.
WOW, GREAT COMEBACK WITH THE NIKKI/MMG/YMCMB THATS’S REAL ORIGINAL. I GUESS I DIDN’T REALIZE I WAS DEALING WITH A REAL “G” FROM THE HOOD. I’M JUST CURIOUS AS TO WHY FOR SOME REASON I’M NOT REALLY SCARED BUT I SHOULD BE WITH A HOOD RESUME LIKE YOURS. REAL TALK I’M NOT FROM THE HOOD BUT LET’S BE REAL YA BOY NASIR ISN’T EITHER SO STOP GETTING EMOTIONAL AND TRYING TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT.
NAS IS A FRAUD
“A YO NAS YA WHOLE DAMN STYLE IS BITTEN” – 2PAC – AGAINST ALL ODD, I’M SURE SINCE YOUR SO STREET YOU HEARD THAT ALONG WITH THE 20 OTHER TIMES PAC LAID INTO NAS
WHAT LAMES YOU BOTH ARE GETTING PUNKED BY KIDS FROM THE BURBS MR. I’M FROM THE PROJECTS
Emotional? far from that, money. See you just proved me right, I’m a live dude, fuck all that ‘G’ talk, most of y’all don’t know what that is, that’s why NY is flooded with these clowns and their flags, bunch of comedians who cannot take or give ass whoopin’ duke. The point is Pac was not the realest, most would agree he was walking around portraying a character but then all of us do wear masks and act different parts in life. As far as his music he bit off other people’s line too and that’s fact. I ran with a lot of acts folks thought were monsters but dudes where seven thirty or had other problems. Thus, if this is about music keep it one hundred , either it’s good or it’s bad. Folks come up on here and develop fetishes for artists. You’re from the projects? Good for you. Been there, left ain’t going back. Last I checked one of my peoples got stabbed 37 times by a fucking 14 yr old and his muttpack out in Beantown, what? does that make me ‘G’, nah, had money progress out of that life then his fam and friends wouldn’t be mourning. Life is about progression. Last I checked this site was about music not an artist’s personal life.
Lord listen to me
God don’t like ugly, It Was Written
(ey yo Nas) Nas, your whole damn style is bitten
You heard my melody, read about my life in the papers
All my run-ins with authorities, felonious capers
Now you wanna live my life, so what’s the answer Nas?
Niggas that don’t rhyme right, you’ve seen too many movies
Load em up against the wall, close his eyes
Since you lie you die, GOODBYE
Let the real live niggas hear the truth from me
What would you do if you was me nigga
– 2PAC AGAINST ALL ODDS
BY THE WAY I WAS BEING SARCASTIC ABOUT YOU DUMBASS. I’M SURE YOUR SOME SUBURB KID FROM OHIO THAT’S NEVER EVEN SEEN A HOOD.
NAH, you’re the dumb ass and nah, you were not being sarcastic,do you even know what the words mean, your ass got ethered and you know it fucker, quoting Pac, fucker that shit is old an tired, only retarded clowns quote rappers’ lyrics; Jerry, you ain’t black, stop frontin’ Ohio? nah, try Brooklyn, NY or try Dorchester, Boston, I Self Lord and Master.
AIN’T NOBODY GET EHTERED. YOU ALWAYS POST SHIT LIKE RESPONDING AGAIN MEAN YOUR A FAG. BUT FUCK THAT NIGGA YOU CAN’T SILENCE ME. I’M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW YOU “ETHERED” ME (NICE WORD SELECTION). I GUESS IN YOUR OWN LITTLE WORLD WHERE YOU GREW UP IN BROOKLYN AND THE HOOD (YA KNOW YOUR FAKE REALITY THAT I SEE RIGHT THROUGH)
PS – DO YOU REALLY THINK I CARE WHAT A POSER FROM OHIO THINKS ABOUT ME IF I “POST AAGIN”
FACT OF THE MATTER IS THE ONLY THING OLD AND TIRED IS YOUR BOY NAS CRYING ANG WHINING ABOUT HOW KELIS BROKE HIS HEART AND HOW HE’S A THUG WHEN HE IS NOT. ACTUALLY YOU TWO SEEM TO HAVE MORE IN COMMMON THEN I THOUGHT.
The only thing this idiot up there sees through is his own B.S. reality? fucker doesn’t even know what is. Silence who? for what? fuck outta here. Clown is right me and Nas do have something in common, we’re both black and sorry folks listening to hip-hop, saying ‘n@@@a’does not make you black, as a matter of fact saying the latter could get the white smack out of your dumb ass.
i don’t remember 2pac being that real either, he was wearing daishikis and african caps. he wasn’t that gangsta until the death row years. and pac style and nas stlye wasn’t bitten. pac was mad because nas “supposedly” stole the sample to all eyes on me and it wasn’t even like that cuz many songs had the same sample in hip hop. shit, nautilus was flipped about 5 times in hip hop. come with facts next time
That is the whole point these non-English comprehending motherfuckers fail to understand. Getting up on here talking about so-so is not real because said artist speaks on a relationship be it wife or girlfriend, yeah okay. Go and search how X deals with his. What the fuck dude supposed to make a song about another man? What any artist be it Jay, Nas,Snoop eat is not supposed to make anyone shit. Simple and plain. Speaking of Pac (god bless the dead) guess he witnessed a lot of shooting at performing art school? Yet, can you really say he wasn’t real. Again, you could go back in history the cat that influenced MJ, Marvin all the way to Miss Keys an probably the best soul, fuck it, singer of all time Donny Hathaway raised in the projects, went to Howard U and ended up a making songs about love, relationship, ghettos etc… Guess he wasn’t real, either. King Sun was making song about ‘hey love’, this motherfucker would knock out these clown ass gangster/real/rappers in a sec. ditto for him being not real.

@be, Im not telling half truths, you are trying to add the years & the economy in which his albums were released and correlate that into when Nas went platinum or gold last. The years or the state of the economy were not a part of the topic and it doesnt discredit the WHOLE TRUTH that Nas has 8 platinum & 3 gold albums to date. The original statement made by @Lowkei, was about Nas having mediocre album sells NOT about the years/economy those albums charted.
For you information @be, Nas last 4 solo albums are Gods Son, released December 13, 2002 went platinum on January 14, 2003 (one month after its release date), Streets Disciple, released November 30, 2004 and went platinum on November 18, 2005 (one year after its release date) and making it Nas 7th consecutive platinum album in the US. Hip Hop Is Dead, released December 15, 2006 went gold selling over 598k copies by February 2007 (went gold 2 months after its release date) and sold over 764k copies as of November 2008 and Untitled released on July 15, 2008 went gold on September 11, 2008 with 544k copies sold (2 months after its release date). It did not take Nas 4 years after the release of Untitled to go gold. So as far as me NOT having anything to brag, that was never my angle but you sure as HELL need to find something else to hate because Nas plaques are written in stone20 years & still counting HAHA!!!
So regardless of when or how long it took for Nas albums to go platinum does NOT matter, what matters is that Nas has the plaques TODAY to show & prove and there is NO HALF TRUTHS in thatso please take your HATER card and find another angle to hate because Nas #s are proven. By the way, it took Illmatic 10 years to go platinum. Its not where you start it is how you end and Nas albums have always ENDED up earning him a platinum or gold plaque.
most of these rappers aint real niggas. Word, Nas bankrupt never was a drug runner, Lil Wayne aint no blood, Jeezy aint no BMF, 50 a snitch, Game a stripper, t.i is gay. None of these niggas real you guys. If they was all real they all be dead now. Like it or not Rick Ross is the new biggie.
Wow, Nas stan? Wow, what an intelligent and introspective rebuttal, reminds one of that Jay-Z joint ” a gun in your mouth and that’s all you can think to say?!!” He doesn’t write his own rhymes either, Krs-One doesn’t either, Kan, only Elmvis? See you showed who the fuck you are and what the fuck you don’t know, this is a hip-hop site, you got confused.
See you just proved me right, I’m a live dude, fuck all that ‘G’ talk, most of y’all don’t know what that is, that’s why NY is flooded with these clowns and their flags, bunch of comedians who cannot take or give ass whoopin’ duke. The point is Pac was not the realest, most would agree he was walking around portraying a character but then all of us do wear masks and act different parts in life.

Sorry folks, post was meant as a reply to an idiotic comment made by a white gang banger? named Jerry? who believes he is Tupac reincarnated from Ohio.
just shut your ignorant fuckin mouth. by far the dumbest comment on hiphopdx this month (other than the fuckin non funny, bored, annoying ass, ja rule troll)
WOOOW,MY FAVOURITE TRACK OFF THE ALBUM.MMG NEVER FAILS TO DELIVER.HERE IS A VERY SIMPLE ADVICE TO ALL THE IDIOTS LEAVING STUPID COMMENT HERE.IF U DONT LIKE MMG—->GTFO THIS PAGE.U WASTING UR STUPID TIME COMMENTING AND INSULTING MEEK MILL,HE IS GETTING PAID AND WOULD NEVER READ UR STUPID COMMENT,SO DO URSELF A FAVOUR…JUST LEAVE.I DONT LIKE CERTAIN RAPPERS,BUT U NEVER CATCH ME LISTENING AND COMMENTING ON THEIR MUSIC…OR WORSE STILL CURSING OUT SOMEONE ELSE FOR LIKING THAT KIND OF MUSIC.
Damn bro I dont care what niggaz say. this sht so introspective and inspirational. haters can go kill themselves. this nigga came from the gutter and look where he is now. this sht shud inspire you instead of hating. support ur own brother. mmg for life.
to put meek in the same circle as 2pac you must be retared fuck meek he wont be around in two years 2pac has been dead for over ten years and he still sells more then these jokers that only rap about bitches money and cars
but meek and pac are not on the same level, thats jus wrong lol. however selling more than one person dont make u better than him or her. GFID sold more than LiG, but is rick ross better than Nas??
the hook is hella. its really was unnecessary for Ross to be in this shit. 2 meek mill’s verses woulda been nice with Nas in the middle. Meek is really dope but i feel like Ross holding him back or giving him beats that end up making Meek a ross-wanna be.
Every Nas verse for the last couple of years has just been confirmation of his GOAT status. Yes he’s made a few mis-steps, but he’s human and greatness should not equal perfection (which is unattainable)
Meek Mills is boring @ times. Sounds like a Ross song that he gave Meek. Nas killed it like always. Kendrick Lamar dope new breathe of fresh air for Hip Hop & way better than Meek Mills. I think that hip hop is gonna come back to it’s og format In due time just like everything always does in life. This shit is horrible now & needs a change quick. These new lil young cats like A$ap Rocky, Kendrick Lamar, J.Cole, Joey Bad Ass, & niggas like them gonna spawn a change in hip hop’s sound. IT CAN’T GET ANY WORSE !!!!!
i agree. i really think Nas aint stood out that much. after like… a whole lotta lsitens, cos i like meek and think John legend spazzed on the hook, i actually fucks with meek’s verse more
this beat is classy
sounds like a Justice League production.Nice track overall.4/5
I MEAN, MEEK STR8..FOR HYPE MUSIK SHIT..BUT HE NEVER SWITCHES HIS VOICE.. LIKE TO MATCH THE MOOD THE MUZIK IS GIVIN U.. I MEAN RICK WOULD GO HYPE LIKE ” I THINK IM BIG MEECH” , BUT DIE THAT SHIT DOWN FOR HIS “MAYBACH MUSIC TRAKS” .. IM JUST SAYING SWITCH UP THE FLOW STYLE ONCE IN THE WHILE, OTHER THAN THAT, MEEK ALWAYS MAKE U FEEL HIS SHIT .. STR8 TRAK.. JUST NOT FOR MEEK
I agree he still learning though give him some time good point though
Another track from Meek that is classic, classy track most definetly. The snares in the back were cool too.
beast and mature track 5/5
I dont like police Music. Anything Ross touches is tainted by the sound of police siren
ROFL!! I spit out my sprite laughing at this comment!!
best comment ever, grammy written all over this comment. lmfaoooo. I dont like police Music. Anything Ross touches is tainted by the sound of police siren. lmfaooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Classic.
it’s so ironic how meeks album is coming out to be a classic unlike the wack shit i’ve been hearing from kendrick lamar.
u hear that autotune song with kirko bangz? nothing classic about it
Only reason I listened to this: Nas & John Legend
#truuuu
WHAT?!?!?! That hook is INSANE!!! John Legend is crazy.
Dreams & Nightmares is gonna be a classic!
this song is stupid!!!! I cant deny it Maybach makes the best music right now, this is the laid back think and smoke to song…love it..Im sorry but his album and Ti album im looking forward to…kendrick is talented but he’s just a “Rapper” Meek milli is a hiphop star…kendrick raps too fast just to be diffrent and you dont catch it..plus kendrick doesnt know how to make a good song just feature but he is talent but i’ll take meek
you’re stupid
no you dont catch it. People who know hip hop can easily. It takes skill to spit that fast..stop hearing the songs and start listening to the MUSIC NIGGA
this shit is so symphonic. can’t wait to cop this album.
Meek mill look like a young Beanie sigel 4/5
No, he doesn’t. But this is the style I’d like to hear from Meek. The fast Minnie mouse voice shit he does is the worst.
Nas is the shit!! Rick Ross a fraud I hate listening to him. meek was str.8 john legend was dope on the chorus. 4/5
ross beasted on this track. that CO shit is old nigga.
The beat and John legend made the song. Meek needs to thank the producer john legend and nas
NAS >>>>>>
Rick Ross get the last verse??
Shit is fire. Where ya boy 50 at and his G-Unit huh niggas? Keep hatin MMG stay winnin
Bawse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
probably looking at their platinum plaques
bowling with gunplays chain
Fire
Ross have never said anything that hits the soul, just urgghh cash and maybachs minks and racks. Boring as hell. Meek sounds like Wale.
Solid jam. Anyone know what part of Philadelphia he grew up in?
Kinda weak and forgettable. Really wouldn’t feel any kinda way if I never heard it again. Slap yourselves. Kendrick has already murdered this dude on a track there’s not even a comparison
this song has more quality than anything kendrick lamar put out from good kid besides rapping fast doesnt mean u re nice talking bout getting killed check out how pop ass drake annhilated rapper on his own shit.
Radio crowd loves the “bangers” and these internet pussies panties get weak when they hear soft shit like this. Please this shit is lame boring as beat same boring as Meek Nas is always gonna come correct don’t really care for the singing
youre stupid
*wet
wet
Damn this is pure trash, worst Ish i heard in a min.
u re stupid
as Marjorie said I cant believe that a single mom can earn $9575 in four weeks on the internet. did you see this web link (Click on menu Home more information) http://goo.gl/DLkEK
QUITE DISAPPOINTING…WORST MEEK VERSE I’VE HEARD IN A WHILE…BORING ELEVATOR MUSIC BEAT…NAS SOUND LIKE HE FELL OFF AGAIN…ROSS HAD THE BEST VERSE THOUGH.
NAS JUST GET THE MONEY
This Would Be Hot if Performed Live With a Band. Something different from Meek.

flawless!!!!
its Just a bunch of features and banging beat
this song hot, fuck what yall talking
damn yall some hatin ass dudes man. Weezy been killin the game since his cash money days. Look how much he’s done for hip hop and all yall do is hate. He’s given us classics, and I agree his recent stuff doesn’t top Carter 1 and 2, but you can’t deny he’s top 5 right now(top 3 actually).
So many other wack rappers and yall choose to hate on Weezy. I bet yall them lame ass “real hip hop” fans who only bump Common(who sucks) and fuckin Mos Def. Them old ass fools don’t even sell units, plus Wayne is lyrically shitting on them. Carter 2 still the best rap album of 2000 era. Fuck anyone who says any different(and Carter III is shitting on the majority of whats coming out today, including yall lame as opinions)
No disrespect but black folks don’t know SHIT called LOGIC. Listen, if NO ONE (including you) wanna FESS UP and TELL then how the fuck are the police supposed to know anything and how the fuck are you or anybody else gonna cry about justice?
Niggas talk all that snitch stuff when it’s another statistic but when it’s their family member or their man they wanna cry justice. Look, niggas in LA KNOW Orlando killed 2pac but no one wanna fess up cuz they’ll get labelled a snitch. Instead they rather go at Funk Flex or Suge Knight and use them as scape goats and act tough with them on the Internet or via records.
How is the police gonna lock any of these criminals up if nobody is fessin up? And then when the feds DO lock niggas up y’all cry “the police is lockin’ brothas/rappers up”. I feel sorry for african americans, y’all have the most fucked up mentality out in the world, but yet still think it’s worse overseas LMAO. I live in both places btw and yes i’m black.
what does ur thesis have to do with the song.
suge knight did kill Tupac dumb ass
No he didn’t! Suge Knight set him up, dumb ass!
sometimes its illyminati then its suge then it diddy then he’s alive again. you pac fans are the biggest idiots in hip hop. no wonder everyone hates you
Philly we bac

COULD OF BEEN BETTER MEEK LOOKS LIKE MONEY IS GONNA CHANGE HIM SOON RUN OUT OF THINGS TO TALK ABOUT
ONE FLOW MEEK
120K FIRST WEEK
Time to end this G.O.A.T. foolishness.
In this constant debate about Jay-Z being the best ever I read things like “Nas will destroy Jay-Z” or “Eminem got a better flow than Jay”
Those are OPINIONS.
When will you fools learn that you can’t win a debate with OPINIONS. Every rapper has a different style based on where they are from, the time period in which they were most successful, and their unique personality. We all can go on for days about our personal preferences but in a debate criteria like this is completely IRRELEVANT and automatically BIASED.
The only way to win a debate is with cold hard FACTS. And the fact of the matter is that, when you weigh all of the tangible criteria (Sales, Critical Acclaim, Consistency, Longevity, and Impact) Jay-Z makes the strongest case for the G.O.A.T.
Eminem has sold nearly twice as much as Jay-Z, and he is Jay’s equal when it comes to longevity and impact. But Em lacks the consistency or critical acclaim that Jay-Z has (Im not talkin cult/fanboy classics, Im talkin CERTIFIED classics. XXL/Rolling Stone/Source approved) Eminem is VERY close though.
Nas has enjoyed more critical acclaim and more overall respect in the hip-hop community through the years. And he’s definitely equal to Jay with longevity and impact. But he hasn’t been no where near as much of a consistent presence in hip-hop as Jay has. And he is obviously lacking in the sales department.
Lil Wayne just may be the most consistent rapper of all time. He’s no slouch when it comes to longevity and impact either. His glaring flaw? In his 12 year career Lil Wayne has yet to drop a truly critically acclaimed classic album (and it can be done in this climate. just look at kanye’s discography). Also, contrary to popular beleif, Wayne lacks in the sales department. Sure, Tha Carter III and IV are blockbuster albums, but his OVERALL sales of 10 mil US pale in comparison to Jay-Z’s 31 mil.
2pac is a touchy subject. When it comes to impact, pac takes the cake. No other rapper touched the world like 2pac did. He, like Em, has also sold more than Jay and he was very consistent in his time. Sadly, 2pac passed before his time which allowed Jay-Z to surpass him in longevity and critical acclaim.
LL Cool J was the prototype for what a G.O.A.T. could be. He has enjoyed the most longevity, and he was fairly consistent, but his sales, acclaim and overall impact are no where near the likes of 2pac, Eminem, and ofcourse Jay-Z.
Biggie, Rakim, Common, Snoop, the list goes on. All of these MC’s are great but none of them have the total G.O.A.T. package like Jay-Z does.
Jay-Z is the 3rd highest selling rapper of all time, and the richest. He’s one of the most acclaimed (perhaps only rivaled by his boy Kanye). He dropped multi-platinum albums YEARLY from 96′-03′, and he is still going strong today. He’s been in the game since 88′. He’s impacted hip-hop in countless ways from starting one of the 1st successful MC-owned record labels, to being the 1st non-athlete with a signature shoe, to surpassing the likes of Elvis with #1 albums.
Jay-Z is without question the Greatest MC Of All Time. Period. You don’t have to listen to him everyday (Im currently on my Kendrick wave). You don’t even have to like him. But for goodness sake, RESPECT THE FACTS.
The Mogul aspect has nothing to do with the rapper.
Nas is better at times than Jay in areas of storytelling and content. Nas is a cornball when it comes to selecting production and his career is irrelavent at this point. It is ironic in me saying this but Ross, 2 Chainz and Drake are outselling him. Nas has taken so many L’s as a human being that he is dilusional by saying Life Is Good. Instead of putting out a Disc with everything that’s happening recently, he tries to come off slick as if he is a Lyrical Drake but fails. Life Is Good was terrible because it doesn’t satisfy a fans interest. For example, BP3 was trash. We all know that. But the purpose of that album was to make a tourable album. That CD has 10 songs that are radio friendly with about 5 megahits. That albums purpose was for Jay to get his money back from Def Jam and he suceeded. Nas could not do that if his life depended on it.
Eminem shits on Jay-Z in technical ability but Eminem has no content. What faggot releases Not Afraid and We made you as hip hop songs? Eminem is beyond rap. He cannot make a song, do a feature or smile without getting approval from Jimmy. Em has the potential to shit on Jay, Big and Pac but because his image is in such control, he loses is place as the GOAT. Jay does the same in delivering the music but he has content that the White Executives don’t pick up and the consumer can decide to hear.
Jay’s Reasonable Doubt can be put up against Illmatic and MMLP and it is not better than those albums but still a true classic but it’s towards the bottom of the top 10 of all time.
Being the richest should have nothing to do with who is the best. You just hurt your own arguement.
Vol.2, BP1, RD, AG are all classics. Jay’s music stands up against Big, Pac, Em, and Nas and is overall evolving where the dead ones couldn’t and where the living two just can’t take there.
Jay-Z is the best rapper of all time but you gotta be able to defend the music not cash.
hes been doin longer and no corny shit, only thing u can take away from ghost is he hasnt tried to appeal to woman or kids, nothin but grown man shit, fuck al yall frauds! nas tight but fuck j and your argument with sales proves u dont know shit
Nooooooo bitch!
Jay is ok at best. There are many emcees that are much nicer than him. Stop wanting to convince the world of your biased opinion you fanboy.
Those are just YOUR criteria! Youre no different than the people you speak of. Some of us care about skills, lyrics, flow, delivery, and those are our criteria when judging the goat and the hard facts that must sting you is that Em and NaS are just more skilled than Jay is when it comes to rhyming, plus who gives a fuck about sales when were talking about the greatest of all time emcee.
Want some facts?
NaS ethered the crap out of Jay to the point where he is now scared to battle anyone and just chooses to ignore them out of fear of losing another battle.
N.Y. City declared NaS the winner of the battle on Hot 97 and Jay was left stuttering in disbelief when he first heard ether.
NaS made an even more scathing version of ether first but his record label didnt want to put it out and had him make it softer and not as brutal towards Jay.
Eminem (a real battle emcee) has gone on record and said NaS won the battle.
Many many other rappers have also said Jay lost to NaS.
Em’s record sales can’t be trusted at this point, even his medicore albums will sell over 5mil, his fanbase is ravenous
Ether was hard as fuck but what Jay said in Supa Ugly is what Pac claimed he did to Big and dug a dagger in his heart.
If you are a true fan of Hip Hop you will know that Supa Ugly is so wrong and that kind of shit could have incited real violence (either one or both dead) if Nas caught feelings but fact is Nas’s career is at a stand still now.
You can’t just walk away from that. Jay’s feeling got hurt when Ether came out. I was blown the fuck away. Supa Ugly went over so many heads because the flow was off and the beat sucked. The content is the killer for Nas and thats why he lost that and long term
Me and tha boy A.I. got more in Common than just ballin and rhymin
Get It?
More in Carmen
I came in ya Bentley backseat
Skeeted in Jeep
Left condoms in tha baby seat
Here nigga
Tha gloves is off
The love is done
Its whateva, wheneva, howeva
Nigga “1”
And since you infatuated with sayin tha gay shit
Yes u was kissin my dick when u was kissin that bitch
Crazy bitch
You thought I was boning Ranette
You calling Carm’ a hundred times I was boning her neck
You got a baby by that broad
You cant disown her yet
When does ya lies end?
When does the truth begin?
When does reality set it?
Or does it not matter
Gotta hurt that I’m ya baby mama’s favorite rapper
And ask your current girl
She know whats up
Holla at a real nigga
OUCH
Gotta hurt that I’m ya baby mama’s favorite rapper
Yes u was kissin my dick when u was kissin that bitch
That line was the fuckin killer for me.
Nsa is a legend and ether is rough but Jay-Z murdered him there and people cringe when they listen to that song and think about nas.

Jay = rapper NaS = emcee
Both of Eminem’s albums (The Marshall Mathers LP and The Eminem Show) have gone diamond! Which absolutely shits on Jay Z’s record sales, but I bet what you didn’t know is that from the late 90’s to early 00’s Jay-Z was getting funding from an unknown source (Reckefellers). As a reward for selling out Jay-Z was getting the most radio air play out of any rapper alive. This is why rappers from Nas to DMX hated Jay-Z, but yet you want to talk about him being the best through hard work and shit. Jay-z ain’t nothing but a dick sucking faggot and even though he got help from the elite Eminem was still able to whoop his ass in sales and lyrical ability.
you are a dumass! Biggie not the total package????
Biggie had:
– the flow
– wit
– dope storyteller
– freestyles
– didnt write his lyrics, his shit was straight from the dome.
– made hardcore track, rnb tracks, commercial tracks, underground tracks.
eat a dick you faggot. Oh and Pac wasnt consistent. His first 2 albums were decent shit he blew up with MATW and AEOM. by the way AEOM album had a lot of filler
love Meek Millz, if their is one thing i hate its that he’s in arms reach of Rozay. Rozay is a whack-ass rapper with the same lines and message all the time.
Meek Millz adresses the lack of authenticity in the game in his “behind the scenes of Dreams and Nightmares part 1” where he states he wants to give people that tony montana shit with new verses and everything. Hopefully, hopefully he delivers cuz he can be something special. and i would hate for him to fake it just cuz he’s made it.
D&N 10-30-2012 cant wait.
Ya me too! I hope he makes use of what he’s got.
uhhhh this is some pretty bad music
this is a meek mill song, wtf yall talking bout hay pac n em and errbody else for, shut the fuck up plz
Yes u was kissin my dick when u was kissin that bitch
That line was the fuckin killer for me.

Sorry but Jay never stood a chance against NaS and that even without him having released this version!
Jay is super rich and hes got aight skills but he will never be able to say he won the battle. NEVER! Shit Jay himself admitted he was defeated when he said………………………………………..
“Since I would not lose they tried to help him cheat, but I will not lose for even in defeat there’s a valuable lesson learned so it evens it up for me”
Yes fanboys he said “ME”
So there you have it, now i want to see you try and argue against Jays own words.
I don’t understand how people can even mention Nas and Jay in the same sentence. I like Jay too, but he’s no where near Nas skill level. You can compare Nas to Ghostface or AZ or someone in terms of lyrics, but not Jay… Jay-Z doesn’t isn’t that skilled an emcee.
“since you infatuated with saying that gay shit/ i guess you was kissing my dick when u were kissing that bitch”
after i heard that nothing Nas said after that mattered to me…i’ll take facts over opinions any day
but who cares at the end of the day besides stupid fanboys? sometimes i like nas sometimes i like jay. i like them both and they are both legends. niggas still stuck in 2001 like takeover just came out GROW UP
NAS IS MY FAVORITE MC OF ALL TIMES…BUT JAY KILLED HIM WITH THAT “BLUEPRINT 2” TRACK
Nas doesn’t come close to Jay’s skill level. Can I Live alone is superior to every track on Illmatic combined.
I find it funny how Jay admits on blueprint 2 that he lost the battle but yet some genius here tries to use that song as a way to defend Jay. SMH!
“SINCE I WILL NOT LOSE THEY TRIED TO HELP HIM CHEAT, BUT I WILL NOT LOSE FOR EVEN IN DEFEAT THERES A VALUABLE LESSON LEARNED SO IT EVENS IT UP FOR ME”
-JAY-Z
ross went in!! nice track
meek best in the game right now hands down no ones fucking with him
LMFAO HILARIOUS!!!
Only on a hiphopdx comment board can a Meek Mill song turn into a debate about whos better between Nas and Jay-Z. Shaking my head at this foolishness….
I agree! I never understood the fight between the fans anyway, the beef was between 2 legends of the game and the fans won. got a bunch of great joints from them.
What Imma say is: This song is straight but Meek has dun way too much hood, ratchet, and thug music to try and feed this to the fans.
This song wasn’t bad at all. Pretty good actually.
On a sidenote…..Hiphopdx, your comment section has deteriorated drastically. Ya’ll should do like everyone else…and make it so people have to log in to make comments, or get rid of a comment section all together like Pitchfork.com.
Have to agree, that Disqus chat thing works well – even made WorldStar’s comment sections readable
kinda yawned through this one. the whole Maybach gimmick is getting tiresome. This must the 10th variation of Maybach music.
Phila
DIS THE TYPE OF SHIT I LOVE FROM MEEK… NOT THAT LEX LUGAR SHIT
JUSTICE LEAGUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
He releases a song ft Ross, Legend & Nas and still can’t find hype, this nigga missed his chance last summer, dropping too many mixtapes!
very predictable track, Meek is scrared Kendrick and Swift taking all the buzz from him.
Don’t know why youre hating so much yes not the greatest song, but its so mellow its great to listen to
HI WE MMG NIGGA, WE LOOOOOVE USING OTHER BIGGER/BETTER RAPPERS ON OUR SONGS FOR SHINE SO PPL LIKE THE PERSON ABOVE (heaven) CAN HAVE SOMETHIN TO RAVE ABOUT COZ WITHOUT THE NAS, ANDRE 3K, JAY-Z, K.DOTS FEATURES WE JUST WOULDNT GET THE ATTENTION.
THIS IS HOW THE COMMENTS GO WITH MMG SONGS :
1. yoh that Nas verse was fire, i have no idea what Ross or Meek was rappin about its probly the same thing they rap bout on all songs but that Nas verse nigga WOW.
2. Just saw the tracklist im lookin forward to track 5 with Nas, 8 with jay-z, 2 with Andre 3k, 7 with Drake,10 with Kanye n track 1 with Kendrick lamar coz of the features, fuck tracks without features who whats to hear just Ross or Meek on theyre own lol.
SONG IS AVARAGE, HURD IT B4 MMG TYPE OF SONG IF MMG CARE ABOUT MEEK THEY MUST PUSH BACK HIS RELEASE DATE AND LET HIM START AGAIN AND DO HIM AND NOT THIS COPY N PASTE MMG STYLE OF SAME BEATS WITH BIG NAME FEATURES AND A JOHN LEGEND VERSE COZ LETS BE HONEST THERES NO HYPE OR FOR THIS ALBUM WHICH DROPS IN 12DAYS AND MEEK AINT GOT A BUZZING HIT HEADLINING THE ALBUM.
I FEEL SO BAD FOR THE GUY MEEK MILL.
EVEN THE COVER IS SO LAME AND GENERIC MMG
lmao word
To write all that big essay full of Hate… MMG crew def f*cked your chick
Meek Mill…The current and future hope of HIPHOP.In an era where Gucci mane,Waka Flaka,soulja boy…and all em so called “swag” out idiots exist for the sole aim of killing “this thing of ours” called hiphop. Meek Mill The future.Much love,loving this track
Very nice, nasty NAS made it dope.
agree
meek mill was inspired by Biggie’s Juicy. He just give it a twist
Meek has a good story to tell deserves the Fame.
“people got the nerve to ask why i wear all these chains when i was booked they had me shackled to the wall of shame”
Respect for Meek….MMG
niggas talk about struggle and people give it a straight 5 but when real niggas get out of the struggle they start saying they fell of? fix up Hip hop fans, hip hop aint dead but y’all just ignorant. GOOD KID M.A.A.D CITY & DREAMS AND NIGHTMARES!
wack
…….because kendrick’s album leaked and he knew no one would be into him anymore
…
I already knew what to expect before hearing it just like most MMG tracks Their formula is getting old
dghfjfj
Yo this just me, but I feel like almost all of meek’s “great” songs have Rick Ross on them, like Rosay’s gotta let this man do his own thing and cut out all his own face time. Not to mention Rick literary talks about how he’s got money now, where as with meek and nas they really got into the struggle and the dream in their verses
If dreams and nightmares is anywhere short of a classic I will lose all hope in record companies, for years Meek mill has but out the best mixtapes. If his album isnt as good it will be sad.
Goodsh!t, Hood rooting for u yG WE NEED U TO WIN!!!!!!
MAYBACH MUSIC WINNING ON ALL FRONTS,GOT THE HOTTEST MC IN THE GAME PERIOD(RICKY ROZAY)AND THE ONLY HOPE AND FUTURE OF HIPHOP ON THEIR ROSTER(MEEK MILL),GOT A MASTER WORDSMITH RAPPER(WALE) GOT THE MOST PROMISING RAPPER IN THE GAME(STALLEY)…SHIIIIIT ITS ABOUT TO BE A PROBLEM……

……………..
ROZAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!! HUH!!!
g-unit sitting in their mansions looking at all their platinum records and bowling with gunplays chain
“hottest mc in the game period” – but he struggling to go gold?
“A MASTER WORDSMITH RAPPER” – naw he just thinks hes a poet

^^^^ Man miss me with all that bullshxt .. Mill iight ..Wale and Stalley are wack ..
5 star fo DON NAS
now this that 5 star shit….cant help but say FUCK KENDRICK LAMAR.meek mill the future
the quality of this song has nothing to do with k.dot. get a life.
kendrick is still dope, but poetic justice is trash
Why is Meek Mill still yelling on this mellow beat though? 4 stars
Nas murked this joint!!
I WONDER WHO GHOSTWROTE NAS VERSE
Niggas still sangin about that MAYBACH bullshit. They don’t make that car any more for a reason…
They Dont make them for the public anymore dumbass
and niggas cant even pronounce the car they named their label after
thats a fucking joke!!
dope
They Dont make them for the public anymore
Fuck the haters. The worse verse here is from Nas. ‘Nuff said.
DNC = MEEK MILL one day
SAIGON/JAY ROCK the rest of NOVEMBER!….HAPPY KENDRICK MONTH!
MZ REEFA!…..version one his best
meek got killed on his own shit. i wish he would stick to one genre…preferably the street shit which made him popular. he didnt even come out with his album yet and hes already a sellout…3 for nas/ross/legend
I’m gonna give the song props because its real instruments being played on this one but lyrically they could have all came better! Singing wise…John Legend needs to figure out something…I don’t know what yet but SOMETHING!! That lounge-singer sound he does doesn’t fit…
How many ppl you think that buying this joint pushN a Maybach? #PointlessMusic
pointless question
how many can pronounce the maybach right?
legend killed it
who ever did the drums killed it.
Ok notify the authorities if there’s a crime.
WHy does meek mill sound the same on every track? Ever since that tupac back joint, this dude has maintained the same exact style.
Meek Mill is cool, but needs to stop yelling and shit. The dudes hole flow is like listening to an angry man talk with food in his mouth.
nas sounds the same on his songs too never really switches up his style
^ what do u want Nas to do, inhale some helium and rap? GTFOH with that
Nas been sounding the exact same since Illmatic.
Ross murked this!!
Meek voice is boring for real ,he always sound the same but Nas killed it ,Ross is just ok and Legend is dope
Nas always sounds the same, too. So what you talking bout?
Fuck Haterz !!!
the problem with rap is that it has run its course. The difference between the outgoing generation, and the generation that is coming up, is that the outgoing generation created it’s own form of music. When the older folks were talking about music being trash, it was because they didn’t understand it, it was a different genre. Now instead of making up there own form of music, these younger folks using the same genre. so when the older folks say it’s trash now, it has more meaning, cuz they understand the music.
I say all that to say, this is nothing special, it’s just the same ish we been hearing over and over
Good point, and absolutely true. The worst part of it is, these rappers are FROM our era, so they know better, they just don’t care because they got turnt out.
yeah yeah yeah…youre all rich, you have maybachs, boats, money popping out of the vault, champagne corks flying around everywhere, chandeliers, shoes made out of fuckin’ komodo dragon and shit, and youre better than all of your listeners…we get it…what else ya got? Nothin’? didn’t think so. Niggas sound like bitches rappin’ all this bullshit all the time. Congratulations you’re rich, now act like you seen a dollar before and stop actin’ like a monkey with a gold chain on.
^^^ HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!! LMFAO!
I guess rap is the wrong genre for you.
meek mill did his thing
nas killed it
ross ..well i think we know that hes wack now..meek and wale keeping him there with money..
drop rozay and add a jay-z verse and this songs 10x better
I would add Kanye West, Diddy and 50 Cent into this since they all are rich. You have to have maybach curtains to be part of this song.
The Bass Player though.. gettin it in! i can appreciate this.
fuck all you wiggers hatin, this is true street music, real recognize real, this a 5 star track. Keepin hatin MMG gonna keep shinin
THE EAST VS SOUF…..#2012 FALL & BURN!…MZ TRACY666
‘real recognize real’ is what all the fake niggas say. What other hip-hop cliches you got? how ’bout ‘don’t hate the playa, hate the game’, or ‘scared money don’t make money’, or ‘stop hatin’ and start congratulatin’….you’re wack, and I’m embarassed that you’re from NY. You must be from Greenwich Village or some shit.
nas easily had the best verse, he killin everything.
agreed…was just bumpin this in my maybach…really feelin it
lol. he’s a fucking sellout that will hop on anybody’s track nowadays.

dude you are retarded…even if I gave your comment any credibility…why not compare GUNIT at it’s peak vs MMG at it’s peak……you sit here talking bout gold albums, u think that is fazing 50 Cent. I’m sure he is not sitting around saying I wish I could do Ross’ numbers (matter of fact, aint nobody sitting around wishing they could do MMG numbers). None of those accolades you mention stand up to even young bucks run with GUNIT….MMG has done nothing spectacular….and nigg, stop typing in all caps, it’s f’ing annoying
shut up man mmg wish they could do g unit figures at their peak lets see in 10 year where mmg is

Tony Yayo’s only album sold more than any Ross album lmao. Don’t compare the loser Ross to the other G-Unit platinum artists anymore, thanks.
Idiot, he can’t outsell 50 now, what make you think he could in 2003. you forgot 50 sold over 10 million on one album, and you comparing that to a dude that can’t even go platinum once. FOH!!!
its funny because these mmg stans probably had g-unit t-shirts and albums 8 or 9 years ago
only real dude in MMG is Meek, and I guarantee you he gonna leave after his album flop. Do you realize he doesn’t have a hit single out. Outside of them singles he had out for about 5 months now ain’t none of his album ish getting any burn. So when he had hit singles out they dropped Wale and Ross’ album, but now they don’t have any hit out for him, they planning on releasing his album. I guarantee you when he flops, he gonna want out of MMG
amen, fool
^^ dumbass, are you some form of special retarded. did you read dukes comment. He said “Outside of them singles he had out for about 5 months.” Do you realize Amen was on his mixtape that came out 5 months ago. He’s talking about singles from the album dumbass. sometimes I wonder if people on here can even comprehend a though before they speak.
They shouldve replaced Ross.
John Legend and Nas killed it.. Everyone else did good too though
Time to end this G.O.A.T. foolishness.
In this constant debate about Jay-Z being the best ever I read things like “Nas will destroy Jay-Z” or “Eminem got a better flow than Jay”
Those are OPINIONS.
When will you fools learn that you can’t win a debate with OPINIONS. Every rapper has a different style based on where they are from, the time period in which they were most successful, and their unique personality. We all can go on for days about our personal preferences but in a debate criteria like this is completely IRRELEVANT and automatically BIASED.
The only way to win a debate is with cold hard FACTS. And the fact of the matter is that, when you weigh all of the tangible criteria (Sales, Critical Acclaim, Consistency, Longevity, and Impact) Jay-Z makes the strongest case for the G.O.A.T.
Eminem has sold nearly twice as much as Jay-Z, and he is Jay’s equal when it comes to longevity and impact. But Em lacks the consistency or critical acclaim that Jay-Z has (Im not talkin cult/fanboy classics, Im talkin CERTIFIED classics. XXL/Rolling Stone/Source approved) Eminem is VERY close though.
Nas has enjoyed more critical acclaim and more overall respect in the hip-hop community through the years. And he’s definitely equal to Jay with longevity and impact. But he hasn’t been no where near as much of a consistent presence in hip-hop as Jay has. And he is obviously lacking in the sales department.
Lil Wayne just may be the most consistent rapper of all time. He’s no slouch when it comes to longevity and impact either. His glaring flaw? In his 12 year career Lil Wayne has yet to drop a truly critically acclaimed classic album (and it can be done in this climate. just look at kanye’s discography). Also, contrary to popular beleif, Wayne lacks in the sales department. Sure, Tha Carter III and IV are blockbuster albums, but his OVERALL sales of 10 mil US pale in comparison to Jay-Z’s 31 mil.
2pac is a touchy subject. When it comes to impact, pac takes the cake. No other rapper touched the world like 2pac did. He, like Em, has also sold more than Jay and he was very consistent in his time. Sadly, 2pac passed before his time which allowed Jay-Z to surpass him in longevity and critical acclaim.
LL Cool J was the prototype for what a G.O.A.T. could be. He has enjoyed the most longevity, and he was fairly consistent, but his sales, acclaim and overall impact are no where near the likes of 2pac, Eminem, and ofcourse Jay-Z.
Biggie, Rakim, Common, Snoop, the list goes on. All of these MC’s are great but none of them have the total G.O.A.T. package like Jay-Z does.
Jay-Z is the 3rd highest selling rapper of all time, and the richest. He’s one of the most acclaimed (perhaps only rivaled by his boy Kanye). He dropped multi-platinum albums YEARLY from 96′-03′, and he is still going strong today. He’s been in the game since 88′. He’s impacted hip-hop in countless ways from starting one of the 1st successful MC-owned record labels, to being the 1st non-athlete with a signature shoe, to surpassing the likes of Elvis with #1 albums.
Jay-Z is without question the Greatest MC Of All Time. Period. You don’t have to listen to him everyday (Im currently on my Kendrick wave). You don’t even have to like him. But for goodness sake, RESPECT THE FACTS.
The Mogul aspect has nothing to do with the rapper.
Nas is better at times than Jay in areas of storytelling and content. Nas is a cornball when it comes to selecting production and his career is irrelavent at this point. It is ironic in me saying this but Ross, 2 Chainz and Drake are outselling him. Nas has taken so many L’s as a human being that he is dilusional by saying Life Is Good. Instead of putting out a Disc with everything that’s happening recently, he tries to come off slick as if he is a Lyrical Drake but fails. Life Is Good was terrible because it doesn’t satisfy a fans interest. For example, BP3 was trash. We all know that. But the purpose of that album was to make a tourable album. That CD has 10 songs that are radio friendly with about 5 megahits. That albums purpose was for Jay to get his money back from Def Jam and he suceeded. Nas could not do that if his life depended on it.
Eminem shits on Jay-Z in technical ability but Eminem has no content. What faggot releases Not Afraid and We made you as hip hop songs? Eminem is beyond rap. He cannot make a song, do a feature or smile without getting approval from Jimmy. Em has the potential to shit on Jay, Big and Pac but because his image is in such control, he loses is place as the GOAT. Jay does the same in delivering the music but he has content that the White Executives don’t pick up and the consumer can decide to hear.
Jay’s Reasonable Doubt can be put up against Illmatic and MMLP and it is not better than those albums but still a true classic but it’s towards the bottom of the top 10 of all time.
Being the richest should have nothing to do with who is the best. You just hurt your own arguement.
Vol.2, BP1, RD, AG are all classics. Jay’s music stands up against Big, Pac, Em, and Nas and is overall evolving where the dead ones couldn’t and where the living two just can’t take there.
Jay-Z is the best rapper of all time but you gotta be able to defend the music not cash.
Wow, that might be the most articulate and thought-out comment I have ever seen on here.
I use to think the same thing, but if you pay attention, the only reason why Jay stays relevant is b/c he aligns himself with who is hot at the moment. Jay hasn’t put out a classic rap song in years. He had his run of greatness, I give you that, and he will go down as one of the greatest, but GOAT, I disagree. You said to look at facts, but I don’t think you are looking at facts. Without all the collabo’s, Jay would not be where he is right now, he rides the wave of whoever is popping at the moment.
So based on Ben Dover’s comment Nikbag is a Douchebag…I’m out
Who da hell is dis Nas guy hes waq as fuq y da fuq iz he evn allowd on a traq wit meek milly MMG 4 LIFE NIGGAZ
Pretentious bullshit.
5 stars meek is the hardest in the game hiphop needs his album!!
that hook was fucking gay
To the idiots below, one a couple of y’all must be white and do not know anything hip-hop music except for what you read in mags or on the net. And to the cat saying the kid from Queens is irrelevant because of his personal life, you’ve been to this dude’s house, ate on the same table. Christ, dude must have broken your heart or something. Get a life, money. life is Good. You could be working a 9 to 5 and life is good, could have millions in the bank and life is good, could be locked up somewhere and life is good. Get the point, it’s all about how you dust yourself up, take your blows, knuckle up and swing back, if not in this fight, the next one. Fuck outta here with your bullshit dissertation.
Truer words were never spoken. Speaking of sales, Nas is famous for being a slow earner. Facts: all his albums/singles have gone gold or better.
I DISAGREE WITH YOUR PATHTIC DICKIRIDING BRAINWASH TACTICS.
LIFE IS GOOD IS NOT GOLD YET GENIUS, WHAT ABOUT LOST TAPES OR DISTANT RELATIVES? THAT’LL BE A LONG LIST IF I TYPE UP ALL THS NAS SINGLES TAHT DIDN’T GO GOLD
LATER CLOWNZ
Why you gotta be white to think that? I agree with everything but keep the race out of it. You sound smart, and better than that young buck!
Peace
@The Azreal-apologies to you and all, true race ought to stay out of it but clowns such as @ JERRY need to go back to sucking their heavy metal stars a la Manson-Jerry, YOU ARE THE DICKRIDER, YOU ARE BRAINSWASHED, most likely Nikki what the fuck is her name is yr idol, probably wanna dress like her et al., and @Anon did state the facts, do you understand ‘slow earner’? Hello,Jerrrrry do you speak English? DUMB FUCK.
WELL, FAG-MAGEDON IF I MUST REITERATE (IT MEANS RE-STATE BY THE WAY ILLITERATE FUCK). FIRST, NOT EVERY NAS ALBUM WENT GOLD. THESE ALBUMS INCLUDE LOST TAPES, DISTANT RELATIVES, AND MOST CURRENTLY LIFE IS GOOD. SECOND, HE ONLY HAS TWO GOLD SINGLES TO HIS NAME (IF I RULED THE WORLD & STREET DREAMS). SO SORRY TO SHOOT YOUR PHONY HERO DOWN, WELL NOT REALLY (I SAY PHONY SINCE MOST OF HIS SHIT HE DOES NOT EVEN WRITE AND HE JUST WITNESSED THE RHYMES AS IN NEVER WAS THE SHOOTER OR SHOOTED) WHICH MAKES PERFECT SENSE FOR HIM NOW TO BE ON EVERY TRACK POSSIBLE WITH OFFICER RICKY. I KNOW THIS HURTS BRO BUT THE 90’S ARE OVER AND YOU NEED TO FIND A NEW FAVORITE RAPPER, PREFERABLY ONE WHO IS REAL AND WRITES HIS OWN RHYMES.
THERE HOW WAS THAT FOR ENGLISH BRAINLESS NAS STAN?
Nah, fucker, the only fag here is you, money, and no favorite rapper bullshit here as I stated before go listen to fucking Nikki cause that is your favorite rapper and second the fact you commented and responded means you’re the dicksuCker here. Son, I live and breathe the streets, and when I sit back I listen to shit I can relate to. Moreover, DO you live in the projects? you pulled any triggers lately? Oh, I get it , you do yr WITNESSING from your comfortable, lily-white suburban ‘hood’; Most of your heroes are phony, ahem, Nikki, lil’ Wayne, Ross are phonies. Heroes? Nah, I’m a grown Black man, money. You on the other hand are trying to live life vicariously through these rappers, hoping to get a glimpse of that perceived ‘black’ experiences i.e. weed smoking, sambo sam acting, Gucci-mane lookin;, minstrel show performing,dumb asses negroes et… GO FUCK YOURSELF.
WOW, GREAT COMEBACK WITH THE NIKKI/MMG/YMCMB THATS’S REAL ORIGINAL. I GUESS I DIDN’T REALIZE I WAS DEALING WITH A REAL “G” FROM THE HOOD. I’M JUST CURIOUS AS TO WHY FOR SOME REASON I’M NOT REALLY SCARED BUT I SHOULD BE WITH A HOOD RESUME LIKE YOURS. REAL TALK I’M NOT FROM THE HOOD BUT LET’S BE REAL YA BOY NASIR ISN’T EITHER SO STOP GETTING EMOTIONAL AND TRYING TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT.
NAS IS A FRAUD
“A YO NAS YA WHOLE DAMN STYLE IS BITTEN” – 2PAC – AGAINST ALL ODD, I’M SURE SINCE YOUR SO STREET YOU HEARD THAT ALONG WITH THE 20 OTHER TIMES PAC LAID INTO NAS
WHAT LAMES YOU BOTH ARE GETTING PUNKED BY KIDS FROM THE BURBS MR. I’M FROM THE PROJECTS
Har-magedon:
Emotional? far from that, money. See you just proved me right, I’m a live dude, fuck all that ‘G’ talk, most of y’all don’t know what that is, that’s why NY is flooded with these clowns and their flags, bunch of comedians who cannot take or give ass whoopin’ duke. The point is Pac was not the realest, most would agree he was walking around portraying a character but then all of us do wear masks and act different parts in life. As far as his music he bit off other people’s line too and that’s fact. I ran with a lot of acts folks thought were monsters but dudes where seven thirty or had other problems. Thus, if this is about music keep it one hundred , either it’s good or it’s bad. Folks come up on here and develop fetishes for artists. You’re from the projects? Good for you. Been there, left ain’t going back. Last I checked one of my peoples got stabbed 37 times by a fucking 14 yr old and his muttpack out in Beantown, what? does that make me ‘G’, nah, had money progress out of that life then his fam and friends wouldn’t be mourning. Life is about progression. Last I checked this site was about music not an artist’s personal life.
Lord listen to me
God don’t like ugly, It Was Written
(ey yo Nas) Nas, your whole damn style is bitten
You heard my melody, read about my life in the papers
All my run-ins with authorities, felonious capers
Now you wanna live my life, so what’s the answer Nas?
Niggas that don’t rhyme right, you’ve seen too many movies
Load em up against the wall, close his eyes
Since you lie you die, GOODBYE
Let the real live niggas hear the truth from me
What would you do if you was me nigga
– 2PAC AGAINST ALL ODDS
BY THE WAY I WAS BEING SARCASTIC ABOUT YOU DUMBASS. I’M SURE YOUR SOME SUBURB KID FROM OHIO THAT’S NEVER EVEN SEEN A HOOD.
NAH, you’re the dumb ass and nah, you were not being sarcastic,do you even know what the words mean, your ass got ethered and you know it fucker, quoting Pac, fucker that shit is old an tired, only retarded clowns quote rappers’ lyrics; Jerry, you ain’t black, stop frontin’ Ohio? nah, try Brooklyn, NY or try Dorchester, Boston, I Self Lord and Master.
Responding again means you’re a fag.
AIN’T NOBODY GET EHTERED. YOU ALWAYS POST SHIT LIKE RESPONDING AGAIN MEAN YOUR A FAG. BUT FUCK THAT NIGGA YOU CAN’T SILENCE ME. I’M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW YOU “ETHERED” ME (NICE WORD SELECTION). I GUESS IN YOUR OWN LITTLE WORLD WHERE YOU GREW UP IN BROOKLYN AND THE HOOD (YA KNOW YOUR FAKE REALITY THAT I SEE RIGHT THROUGH)
PS – DO YOU REALLY THINK I CARE WHAT A POSER FROM OHIO THINKS ABOUT ME IF I “POST AAGIN”
FACT OF THE MATTER IS THE ONLY THING OLD AND TIRED IS YOUR BOY NAS CRYING ANG WHINING ABOUT HOW KELIS BROKE HIS HEART AND HOW HE’S A THUG WHEN HE IS NOT. ACTUALLY YOU TWO SEEM TO HAVE MORE IN COMMMON THEN I THOUGHT.
^^^THE POST ABOVE IS FROM JERRY AS WELL
Two bitches getting their feelings hurt lol
nah, you’s the bitch, fucker.
@Anon, nah the two faggots, oops, sorry, the two ‘parents’ that birthed you out of their ass must be the bitches.
wow this happened.
The only thing this idiot up there sees through is his own B.S. reality? fucker doesn’t even know what is. Silence who? for what? fuck outta here. Clown is right me and Nas do have something in common, we’re both black and sorry folks listening to hip-hop, saying ‘n@@@a’does not make you black, as a matter of fact saying the latter could get the white smack out of your dumb ass.
i don’t remember 2pac being that real either, he was wearing daishikis and african caps. he wasn’t that gangsta until the death row years. and pac style and nas stlye wasn’t bitten. pac was mad because nas “supposedly” stole the sample to all eyes on me and it wasn’t even like that cuz many songs had the same sample in hip hop. shit, nautilus was flipped about 5 times in hip hop. come with facts next time
That is the whole point these non-English comprehending motherfuckers fail to understand. Getting up on here talking about so-so is not real because said artist speaks on a relationship be it wife or girlfriend, yeah okay. Go and search how X deals with his. What the fuck dude supposed to make a song about another man? What any artist be it Jay, Nas,Snoop eat is not supposed to make anyone shit. Simple and plain. Speaking of Pac (god bless the dead) guess he witnessed a lot of shooting at performing art school? Yet, can you really say he wasn’t real. Again, you could go back in history the cat that influenced MJ, Marvin all the way to Miss Keys an probably the best soul, fuck it, singer of all time Donny Hathaway raised in the projects, went to Howard U and ended up a making songs about love, relationship, ghettos etc… Guess he wasn’t real, either. King Sun was making song about ‘hey love’, this motherfucker would knock out these clown ass gangster/real/rappers in a sec. ditto for him being not real.
Pasted from Rap-Up.com(go on there to follow entire convo) Jut to prove a point.

@be, Im not telling half truths, you are trying to add the years & the economy in which his albums were released and correlate that into when Nas went platinum or gold last. The years or the state of the economy were not a part of the topic and it doesnt discredit the WHOLE TRUTH that Nas has 8 platinum & 3 gold albums to date. The original statement made by @Lowkei, was about Nas having mediocre album sells NOT about the years/economy those albums charted.
For you information @be, Nas last 4 solo albums are Gods Son, released December 13, 2002 went platinum on January 14, 2003 (one month after its release date), Streets Disciple, released November 30, 2004 and went platinum on November 18, 2005 (one year after its release date) and making it Nas 7th consecutive platinum album in the US. Hip Hop Is Dead, released December 15, 2006 went gold selling over 598k copies by February 2007 (went gold 2 months after its release date) and sold over 764k copies as of November 2008 and Untitled released on July 15, 2008 went gold on September 11, 2008 with 544k copies sold (2 months after its release date). It did not take Nas 4 years after the release of Untitled to go gold. So as far as me NOT having anything to brag, that was never my angle but you sure as HELL need to find something else to hate because Nas plaques are written in stone20 years & still counting HAHA!!!
So regardless of when or how long it took for Nas albums to go platinum does NOT matter, what matters is that Nas has the plaques TODAY to show & prove and there is NO HALF TRUTHS in thatso please take your HATER card and find another angle to hate because Nas #s are proven. By the way, it took Illmatic 10 years to go platinum. Its not where you start it is how you end and Nas albums have always ENDED up earning him a platinum or gold plaque.
WHO’S WILLING TO BET MEEK MILL WROTE ALL THREE VERSES? HAHAHAHAHAHA
Say what you want about the chorus, one thing is fur sure classic meek mill verse, all heart. Really listen to music, dont just skim through it.
most of these rappers aint real niggas. Word, Nas bankrupt never was a drug runner, Lil Wayne aint no blood, Jeezy aint no BMF, 50 a snitch, Game a stripper, t.i is gay. None of these niggas real you guys. If they was all real they all be dead now. Like it or not Rick Ross is the new biggie.
BAWSE!!!!!
GET A LIFE, DUDE.
You obviously know nothing about rap is you think nas and meek mill arent real
Wow, Nas stan? Wow, what an intelligent and introspective rebuttal, reminds one of that Jay-Z joint ” a gun in your mouth and that’s all you can think to say?!!” He doesn’t write his own rhymes either, Krs-One doesn’t either, Kan, only Elmvis? See you showed who the fuck you are and what the fuck you don’t know, this is a hip-hop site, you got confused.
GET A LIFE, DUDE.
u went krs tooo??? loser
This was a rebuttal to this clown below named Jerry.
See you just proved me right, I’m a live dude, fuck all that ‘G’ talk, most of y’all don’t know what that is, that’s why NY is flooded with these clowns and their flags, bunch of comedians who cannot take or give ass whoopin’ duke.

Life is about progression. Last I checked this site was about music not an artist’s personal life.
and it’s not about your personal life either… I just wanted to read what ppl thought of this song not a person’s bio
whats your fucking point?
and this story is posted because???
Sorry folks, post was meant as a reply to an idiotic comment made by a white gang banger? named Jerry? who believes he is Tupac reincarnated from Ohio.
GOT ONE WITH YOUR MOTHER
Only white people diss this cuz they can’t relate to the REAL hip hop. 5* track
just shut your ignorant fuckin mouth. by far the dumbest comment on hiphopdx this month (other than the fuckin non funny, bored, annoying ass, ja rule troll)
Why even engage? Kids like him just need to die out and not reproduce.
nah -white people this trash – and brother like u stay confused…
Loaded LUX
racist. what’s funny is a white dude probably put you onto this track…smdh
gdfgfdg
this ma shit.
Classic Shit, Meek,Nas and Ross what more can U ask for…………..
This is legendary music.
You’re really easily impressed.
It’s Meek’s track, shouldn’t he save the last verse for himself to kill it? Mediocre.
Damn I expected so much more….
WOOOW,MY FAVOURITE TRACK OFF THE ALBUM.MMG NEVER FAILS TO DELIVER.HERE IS A VERY SIMPLE ADVICE TO ALL THE IDIOTS LEAVING STUPID COMMENT HERE.IF U DONT LIKE MMG—->GTFO THIS PAGE.U WASTING UR STUPID TIME COMMENTING AND INSULTING MEEK MILL,HE IS GETTING PAID AND WOULD NEVER READ UR STUPID COMMENT,SO DO URSELF A FAVOUR…JUST LEAVE.I DONT LIKE CERTAIN RAPPERS,BUT U NEVER CATCH ME LISTENING AND COMMENTING ON THEIR MUSIC…OR WORSE STILL CURSING OUT SOMEONE ELSE FOR LIKING THAT KIND OF MUSIC.
That chorus sounds kinda lame at the beginning, but it all makes sense when it actually drops…got this song on repeat…BANGER.
dis okay but wat happened to the version i heard wit my nigga stevie j… john legend nice but stevie had it poppin
Damn bro I dont care what niggaz say. this sht so introspective and inspirational. haters can go kill themselves. this nigga came from the gutter and look where he is now. this sht shud inspire you instead of hating. support ur own brother. mmg for life.
Its ok.
i love meek he is so good at rapping his better than 2pac
Really????
to put meek in the same circle as 2pac you must be retared fuck meek he wont be around in two years 2pac has been dead for over ten years and he still sells more then these jokers that only rap about bitches money and cars
i think 2pac is overratted sometimes – but meek is no pac…. lol
pac is overrated as fuck
but meek and pac are not on the same level, thats jus wrong lol. however selling more than one person dont make u better than him or her. GFID sold more than LiG, but is rick ross better than Nas??
respect to thabo, pac and biggie over rated as hell if ‘Ye died 10 years ago hed be considered to greatest too
dam this is nice, people need to realize that this is life and start loving this shit.
yawn, boring and typical MMG track.
Nas really saved this one….
It’s like Meek is like blablablahalaha (heard it all b4)
And Nas comes through and says something relatable…
Ross is like blablabalabala… (heard b4)
and Legend is lie balabalabalabal (standard lengend)
Philly
Hatin aint the only thing I hate about a hater
ya niggas hatin cause meek made it, and ya watchin him on tv
Dis shit fire, ill be gettin meek’s album!
fire
Classic
the hook is hella. its really was unnecessary for Ross to be in this shit. 2 meek mill’s verses woulda been nice with Nas in the middle. Meek is really dope but i feel like Ross holding him back or giving him beats that end up making Meek a ross-wanna be.
An Epic Winning combination,Meek Milly,Nas, The Boss of all Bosses Rozay and John The Legend
Rappers can’t hold their own on an album anymore. Blah Blah featuring Blah Blah. Who cares
is it me or Naz jus spazzin on every track these days
poop in a bag and throw it at a cop
pig gets wat he deserves in this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pR1sRsqFrWY
Every Nas verse for the last couple of years has just been confirmation of his GOAT status. Yes he’s made a few mis-steps, but he’s human and greatness should not equal perfection (which is unattainable)
THE ALBUM IS DEFINITELY WORTH THE BUY! DOWNLOAD THE HOTTEST MIXTAPE OUT #LOOSEKANNON http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/ace-kannon-loose-kannon-mixtape.59082.html
now this is dope go support the album and get a real street cat on top!
I downloaded the Meek Mill album, just to take a quick break from GKMC, i yawned abit then started listening to #GKMC again…
Meek Mills is boring @ times. Sounds like a Ross song that he gave Meek. Nas killed it like always. Kendrick Lamar dope new breathe of fresh air for Hip Hop & way better than Meek Mills. I think that hip hop is gonna come back to it’s og format In due time just like everything always does in life. This shit is horrible now & needs a change quick. These new lil young cats like A$ap Rocky, Kendrick Lamar, J.Cole, Joey Bad Ass, & niggas like them gonna spawn a change in hip hop’s sound. IT CAN’T GET ANY WORSE !!!!!
This sounds like aRoss song….good luck meek
Everything Meek says sounds like it’s been said before… many times, he’s extremely unoriginal.
fucking whaCK
OHH MY! cant believe all these dick ridders , i love nas but his verse was pretty average actually
i agree. i really think Nas aint stood out that much. after like… a whole lotta lsitens, cos i like meek and think John legend spazzed on the hook, i actually fucks with meek’s verse more
MEEK MILL….THE FUTURE OF HIPHOP….MAYBACH HAS FINALLY PRODUCED THE SAVIOUR OF HIPHOP….
…———> MEEK MILL
Nas is GOAT!!!
jay z is G.O.AT just accept it!!!
This is Hip Hop
its john legend lol
i think nas dumbed his shit down
listen close
