In RD he was real and himself.
After that he jumped on Biggies nuts and went full on republican.![]()
Jay is and always has been a capitalist. I myself don't want to play that game, but as much as nikkas like to call him "c00n" they really should be paying attention to what he's doing, and how he's doing it if unless they are on some back to Africa shyt. If you're saying in America, and want to amass power and money Jay Z has given you some keys on winning at least half the battle just by being himself.
You can't pop all this "we need economic freedom" shyt and then throw the baby out with the bathwater when it comes to Jay Z getting his just because he's not keeping his business partners black or anti-cooperate in mindset. nikkas are so quick to trash another man just because they WOULD do some things different with his position that they fail to key in on the positive aspects that could help put them in a similar position to tweak where to go from there.
Think laterally, brehs.
