Every time Jay drop a new CD I have to decide which old one I gonna buy. His progression in music lyrically has been sub par considering he was supposed to be one of the best. Still rapping about his money and now Blue Ivy. His content is the most predictable of any MC and that includes the likes of Soulja Boy and Waka Flaka…
He’s better than your favorite Emcee, more #1’s than your favorite artist, more albums than your favorite Emcee, more errthang than your favorite artist….Do your research.
You do realize Em’s new stuff isn’t the same. Jay isn’t the same guy he used to be. Pac is dead man, he made great tracks, but he would have eventually run out of all this hustle stuff, like every other great artist.
Eminem made a song of his favorite rappers… It goes reggie, Jay-z, tupac, and biggie. Lyrical content everyone. Name five people that are better. Eminem took himself out of the debate…Smh, people just hate.
Never understood the dislike for this song.. Where most of the rest of the album was the more present-day rap sound, “Thank You” had a nice laid-back retro feel to it, and Jay didn’t really ruin it through his raps. The only thing I could see anyone hating would be the hook, but in my opinion it still isn’t a trainwreck or anything..
This whole album was never really given a fair chance imo
The problem is he sounds like a snotty rich guy at a ballroom gala…I don’t mind come up music about doe but this shit, and his last 2 albums + WTT, are just rubbing our faces in it and he sounds like a pretentious oil baron as opposed to a successful huslter
maybe cause he never was the hustler he claims to be.
he just milked a few story he had down his block sellin a few rocks here and there. nothin special. when you go to queensbridge or in brooklyn you see kid doin the same thing just to pay themselves a pair of brand new sneakers.
jay-z is like ross on some certain level. he claimed a lot of shit to gain his street cred but he never was THAT deep into the drug game.
probably one of the biggest fraud next to snoop dogg, the game, ja rule and nas.
Wu wear and anonymous… Wow. First track of BP3, track 14, star is born track, etc. Thats for Wu wear… You are missing a lot of frauds in you statement anonymous, then again what most of you think is gangsta is ignorance. What is gangsta to you?? Hopefully its an intelligent answer!!
i don’t listen to gangsta rap music. i just listen to music. but the main issue is most of these so called veteran rappers from the 90’s jumped on the same formula which made hip-hop so irrelevant these days. they all claimed they were notorious gangstas or notorious hustlas before they went into the industry which is totally false. and i hate fake people.
there are only a few artists or groups i really appreciate like pharoahe monch, the roots, outkast for instance.
but when it comes to jay-z, nas, snoop, rick ross, ja rule, the game, the diplomats, mobb deep etc. they’re nothin but a bunch of studio gangstas and studio hustlas talkin a lot of bullshit in their raps.
jay decided to join pop-culture instead of bringing pop culture back to a real authentic sound, with i think with as much influence he had, very much the capability to do. So now theres a bunch of alienated would be motherfuckers that should have been stars, blackballed from the industry by manipulative corporate powers.
But it’s not about displaying talent, intellect or spreading the truth, It’s now about flashing your material possessions and faking it to the higest degree, not giving anything back to these kids which their money is being wasted on
Jay fell off after the Black Album? Only so so albums I would have to say were Kingdom Come & BP3. But he still spits crazy nontheless, to me it seems he just had to find the right groove in current mainstream & balance it with his growth. & ‘Say Hello’ on American Gangster was one of the realest songs I’ve ever heard Jay put out imo. But it’s all opinion at the end of the day, people think differently & therefore analyze differently. Let’s just be thankful for the music given to us & appreciate it for the ART that it is.
I guess people don’t know what pop is. you will never hear this song on the radio. jay is still the best rapper ever. look at how many people has come and gone and jay is still here. your favorite rapper would be more than happy to do what jay has done and to be able to get on a song with jay. appreciate him while he is still here. who stays on the subject matter like jay mr. nice watch, monster, clique listen to the part when he said he gonna 911 part how it is all related to 911 seen. get it right scrap
Ahhhhh, the refreshing sound of hip-hop. No talentless Gucci, Keef, or Waka bullshit. This is the type of music that I can play for people and say “this is why I love hip-hop.”
Jay killed Game!! Game even says it. Next time on cats that think they know rap… They say soulja boy is better than Kendrick lamar!.. give them a red nose
Is that a shot at Jay?)
Nah, I was talking about Ja Rule
Yeah, so, yeah, I got a lot of reAnnotatespect for Jay
You know what I’m saying
I never take shots at legends
I just, that’s just something I don’t do
Hov is above the level of his black race right from the very start and from the point he stands today says it all. I don’t argue with lames about Hov and that have saved me a lot of time and have help me keep lames, fools and many low minded no forward looking people of my daily activity. Thank You
– Sold drugs.

nyc dickriders have never been so influential when it comes to their artists success than some others stans across the rest of the country
He’s better than your favorite Emcee, more #1’s than your favorite artist, more albums than your favorite Emcee, more errthang than your favorite artist….Do your research.
thank you. you just proved my point
Anonoymous^^. Do your research… Eminem and pac have more record sales than jay…therefor proves your point wrong. Plus they much better
You do realize Em’s new stuff isn’t the same. Jay isn’t the same guy he used to be. Pac is dead man, he made great tracks, but he would have eventually run out of all this hustle stuff, like every other great artist.
Eminem made a song of his favorite rappers… It goes reggie, Jay-z, tupac, and biggie. Lyrical content everyone. Name five people that are better. Eminem took himself out of the debate…Smh, people just hate.
lil niggas don’t even know who reggie is that em was talking about. REGGIE NOBLE. Look him up.
Never understood the dislike for this song..

i fuckin hate studio gangstas and studi hustlas
^ fraud quotient Ross > Jay > Nas > Snoop > Game

If you like BP3 that’s cool but I don’t think there’s any argument that Jay fell off significantly after the Black Album.
jay decided to join pop-culture instead of bringing pop culture back to a real authentic sound, with i think with as much influence he had, very much the capability to do. So now theres a bunch of alienated would be motherfuckers that should have been stars, blackballed from the industry by manipulative corporate powers.

This song doesn’t apply to Thanksgiving at all. It’s just Jay bragging, thanking haters.
This song was dope.he spit on here.Yall funny for putting this on here
Jay-Z has BARS on this. BARS

one of the better joints on this album
LOVE THIS FRIGGIN SONG!
That Beat… Jay Did His Thing!
3 years later…still better than MOST shit out now…SMH!
Actually, it’s been 4 years and it’s better than most of the shit that’s out right now, including his own (production wise).
Why u posting this Pop Star music on a HIP HOP SITE!!!!
I guess people don’t know what pop is. you will never hear this song on the radio. jay is still the best rapper ever. look at how many people has come and gone and jay is still here. your favorite rapper would be more than happy to do what jay has done and to be able to get on a song with jay. appreciate him while he is still here. who stays on the subject matter like jay mr. nice watch, monster, clique listen to the part when he said he gonna 911 part how it is all related to 911 seen. get it right scrap

Hard To Hate Jay
I was gonna kill a couple rappers but they did it to themselves lol -someone say 50 Cent?
Over 450 million dollars and still destroying rappers lyrically.
G-UNIT!
What?
He was talking about LL cool j…listen to it..the last verse each word ends with LL..
He destroyed Jim Jones and Game on that last verse!!!
Game ended Hov’s career on 300 bars!!!!!!!!!!!
^Game probably killed Jay on a personal rap level, but how did he end Jay’s career? My point of view tells me completely otherwise.
Jay killed Game!! Game even says it. Next time on cats that think they know rap… They say soulja boy is better than Kendrick lamar!.. give them a red nose
Is that a shot at Jay?)
Nah, I was talking about Ja Rule
Yeah, so, yeah, I got a lot of reAnnotatespect for Jay
