But Jay has like 13 albums, how doesn't he love Hip Hop? :why:Some of these rappers don't even have half of his discography. Nas might be more into the core love of it but that doesn't mean Jay doesn't love it either.
because he’s naturally skilled at it and makes money from it.

nikka didn't show up to ANYTHING for the 50th anniversary of hip hop. No concert, no shows, NOTHING. Not even sponsoring something. shyt was sad fam.


But you can show up for Tom Brady Patriots Retirement to do PSA live in front of a buncha cacs. :francis:


Cmon man. Just call it what it is.

Dude is a legend. Great rapper, but he's been telling nikkaz and showing nikkaz for years what the deal is.

This is common sense, lol. I think Jayz loves hip hop too, he was raised by it and influenced by it just like Nas was...but, as everyone's girl has said to them before, loving something/someone and being in love with it/them are two different things.

Nas is in love with hip hop, Steve Stoute and Irv Gotti and madd other people have said if you want to lose Nas' interest when discussing music/things in general then bring up money...he doesn't care, he's about the art. Whereas Jayz is one of the original "I'm just a hustler who can rap" type rappers. Cam on point.

Some of those shows are business oriented, i don't know what prevented him from coming but Jay is a billion dollar man. The NFL stuff and the Brady performance does look funny but we don't know what was the reason for not being there.

So everything he’s done the last 30 years in rap is discounted now because he ain’t do a show last year?

I always relate to Jay z man. I’m an introvert. Jay is an introvert. That’s really all it is. Jay is NEVER around all these nggas

Only the black community is obsessed with the idea of our ‘elites’ still being accessible. Foh

‘Nggas look at you strange and say you changed. Like you work that hard to stay the same’ :mjtf:

And if nothing else please understand these two words: Tyheim Bryan. That man was gunned down hours after kickin it with Nas in the hood. We want our ‘heroes’ close to the fire instead of flying away from the nest. It’s sickening

Jay met with Rakim not long ago during a award show, we can't say Jay doesn't love Hip Hop but he should've been at the Hip Hop 50th show. It would've made him look more mortal than just a cash cow.
