So Jay-Z being in London in '89 makes sense

[Dixon Cider]

Because in '88 he was getting chased to his building calling nas crib and he aint even give him his numbers? So who did jay call up to get Nas's math from?

So did he clear the area for a bit and
Bool it in london? Was jigger man slanging D across international waters? Smoking Zoots?

He was in London with Jaz-O in 1989 while Jaz was making Word to the Jaz (which Jay shows up on three times)

Jaz was signed to EMI (a British label)

Wouldn't it equate to some type of success to be signed to a label overseas before the exposure of internet,social media etc?

Had to check myself, get my mackin back in perspective
I slack for a second but I'm back, no question
Like I walk with a cane, ain't no half-steppin!"

I'm younger than you if not the same age fukkboy. But I can still have a sense of history, you really didn't know Jay-Z was on Jaz's label flop of an album?

Well, I consider myself a Jay-Z fan (internet would say Stan, but whatever).

I don't/can't expect nikkas who just wanna make jokes and clown on forums to know shyt like that (even if it is on Rap Genius now).

I did my history though. I love the genre, so I'll go back and listen to music that came out before 2006

Jaz was signed. Not Jay.
