A Statement From Shawn “JAY Z” Carter

[Rawtid]

Him eating a loss on this won't take him anywhere near where "back" is.

I personally think WAY beyond just setting myself and my child up financially. I'd really like to get to the point where EVERYONE in my family eats well after I'm here. I'm trying to build a legacy and apart of that legacy is making enough money to sustain all future generations. Just based on his raps, Jay thinks that way as well so any lost is a big one and again, I don't blame him one bit.

I'm going to answer this for you since nobody isn't going to answer the question. He wasted his potential to be great as a living legend in exchange for Thug Life, hanged with the wrong people, had intelligence but didn't use it, got lock up, instigated an east vs west coast rap beef, got shot up and died, got pimped, and only had about 100,000 in his bank after he passed away after selling millions of records and starring in popular urban films . However, the revisionists fixed his image, and painted Tupac as a wise revolutionary black hero. In reality, Tupac was getting hit with mad "L" as much as Nas.
.

your breakdown is just as revisionist truth be told

No hate against Jay but...

1) Do you think Jay wrote that statement? "Shawn Jay-z Carters" statement reads like it was written by a sarcastic Public Relations Professional or Lawyer.

2) This 'collaboration' needs a thorough audit. I want to see the revenue numbers. I want to see how much is funnelled to this charity organization. I want to see some students with checks. These scholarship check amounts need to match those those revenue numbers donated to charity. This whole process needs some transparency IF you say this is totally not for profit.

If it's a business venture, just say so.

Jay is sending all of these students to Grambling y'all.

We did not forget about Wyclef and his Yele movement.
