JAY-Z ~ 4:44 (Discussion Thread)

[baltimore]

Jay been talking the same shyt since reasonable doubt.. all the life/game knowledge, keep your crew tight even Illuminati themes since the beginning.

If anything it's kinda embarrassing how Tupac and nas waffled back and forth on the same discs from taking advantage of women and uplifting them or senseless violence at a whim to why do we do this..

growth over your life is optimal/understandable and we all know what we do is wrong but pick a direction in the meantime or you not about anything. Hov rapped that womanizer beef shyt when he was younger and single and raps that married peaceful life when he's old and settled down.. makes sense to me

4:44 is Jay-Z's NaS album.

Story of OJ was false advertising. Thoughtt Jay would be calling out these house negroes and self hating bufoons. Instead he tells drug dealers that are destroying our community to buy the block.

 

[Big Mel]

Album is awful.

So wasting energy on "calling out" people, aka talking is more valuable than something practical like showing the people in the community that actually has some money how to build the community back up?

I see what type of time you would be on if anybody was actually listening to what you had to say.

Triggered house negro response.

Telling those who contribute to the demise of the community to buy the community isn’t practical at all

Practical:
1. Of or concerned with the actual doing or use of something rather than with theory and ideas.
2. An idea, plan or method likely to succeed or be effective in real circumstances; feasible.
3. A sensible and realistic approach to a situation or problem.

You obviously ain't bout none of that, you want to talk, finger point and use white supremacist lingo on people who look like you in efforts to do...what exactly?

Meanwhile, cacs like the Kennedy's flipped a legacy of bootlegging into two presidential terms and status as American Royalty. I don't see any reason why someone like Jay (or Nipsey) who was able to parlay drug money into what he has become would waste his time doing c00n-call outs rather than helping people of like mind get like him, wealthy, influential and legitimate.

I ain't your mans.

Of course that would be ideal but you gotta start with where you're at and where a lot of us are in the hood looking for the means to get the up outta the situation that they were born into. I grew up having to do my homework in the dope house so I know what kinda nikkas that had the necessary smarts to make the shift from being a destructive force to being a positive one.

There would be less incentive to deal drugs AT ALL if we were able to open up businesses, create jobs and stave off the dreaded 'gentrification', yes? By the time you done pointing out and condemning everybody you're more righteous than cacs will got you up out the paint and set up their own trap in your neighborhood.

Triggered free man response.

I don't think he's talking about your regular nickel and dime dealer buying buildings in Brooklyn.
But anyways it is realistic, you can't tell them to stop selling drugs. If they are gonna keep on doing it, they should also do something productive with the money in the hood they claim to love and preferably get out it to maintain ownership.

Hiphop lines are not meant to be read like a law book.
