greatest to ever do it

[TRENT]

He suxs,,,and thats a great point

even if its off the top of his brain he is still writing,,allbeit on the fly..as for his bussiness savvy there is No denying it...I repeat He cant compose, play an instrument or sing,,,,,JUNK

Its crap and as long as the public buys this dreck the industry will continue to pump it out...

He doesn't write lyrics, everything is off the top of his head in the booth.

And not only is he extremely talented as an artist but he's also one of the shrewdest in the business world right now.

"I'm not a businessman, I'm a business, man!"

Its crap and as long as the public buys this dreck the industry will continue to pump it out...

You can say the same for Nickleback, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, etc.

[Sect 236]

Just because you don't like the genre doesn't make it crap or take away from his greatness.

I'm sure there's music and artists you listen to that I don't like. I don't think they're crap, I just don't like their brand of music.

I don't know why you'd be so upset about him selling millions either. The people buying Hov's music aren't making a decision on if they're gonna buy Magna Carta Holy Grail or whatever artist you prefer. Different demographics.

Any mention of the tuck dance...

then why you doing the tuck dance in your living room whilst listening to the song he did with timberlake?

Is instant ratings.

Please tell me that it sound different from every other fucking Jay-Z joint.

[3rd & Inches]

new Jay-Z album is on there as of this AM.

makes work 88% better with a new album to listen to all day long.

I'm playing the shit out of J-Cole.

Born sinner is best album I have heard in a long while

I think he's a better businessman than artist. I've never been a huge fan of his and I like other hip hop.

I think his persona of a businessman is overhyped. He owned 1/15 of 1% of the Nets & got pissed when the NYT reported it. He was CEO of Def Jam & was forced to resign after a year as other executives said he was in over his head.

Waiting for red tib and j rice to come back its been igglebores out here

[Diggle]

You are clueless. See roc nation. Artist mgmt that manages rihanna jcole wale kylie mingue deadmau5 calvin harris meek mill and a ton more. Live Nation 360 touring deal. Successful clothing line. Bacardi deal. Budweiser Deal. Samsung deal. Duracell co owner. CAA/Roc Nation Sports. Plus all the 40/40 ckubs. The stuff the gen public doesnt know about like his ownership piece in an ad agency and a ton of other things.

Only other hip hoppers in his business realm are dre bc of beats audio/coors deal. And Diddy bc of Sean John and his stake in Ciroc, which has blown up.

[royal]

Hmmm didn't know about that stuff. Stand corrected.

I'd add in the 100 mil+ 50 Cent took home after Coke bought out Vitamin Water.

All of Jay's moves pale in comparison to negotiating Beyonce into choosing his ugly mug.
