So...those 92 bricks?

[Indiglow Meta (R$G)]

He meant 92 units of crack...like 92 $100 vials.

 

[The Devil's Advocate]

So he had to clock 60 straight hours to get enough money to pay for an amount of drugs that fit in his pockets?

breh have you ever dealt crack? or held it in your hand

that's about 1 gram of crack... and that will cost you $100

so yea... you could easily fit 92 grams in your 4 pockets... and back in the day, nikkas was bagging up $20 sacks... so that was even less coke

You knee grows making excuses for Camel's obvious lie need role models.

 

[blackzeus]

He fronted Plies 46 bricks twice.

 

[Cladyclad]

I always thought it was like a deal he missed out on.

And the next line had nothing to do with the one prior.

Kinda like "In 88' u was getting chased in your buildings. Calling my crib and I ain't even give u my numbers"

 

[My Girl is Bow Legged]

Jay-Z had to go back to Marcy and deal crack 60 hours straight — three days in a row, he writes. He kept awake by “eating cookies and writing rhymes on the back of brown paper bags.”

still one of the funniest hip hop stories ever

I remember the thread on SOHH about this...nikkas went all the way in lol

 

[WaveGang]

Hov one lying mf

 

[NoChillJones]

Knee grows like you talk that big shyt, but have 92 cent come up missing out you and your wife's bank account and she be on your neck like a rabid pit bull having you like .

.....we got separate accounts and our joint savings. Soooo yeah I would be on top of my money not sure how that's a insult. Shouldn't that always be the case? Quit hating and soak up some game broke ass nikka.

 

[Juneya]

He said himself it was "all fact". Why would jayz lie to us

This has always been my position.

He remain totally truthful means to much to exaggerate for fun

 

[tuckgod]

He fronted Plies 46 bricks twice.

 

[50CentStan]

Its true, my uncle from BK told me he came across like 90 bricks with a camel stamped in them.

Make sure that 92 cents ain't missing or you're going to get it

 

[NoChillJones]

Don't know why type of nikka you think I am, but you need to grow the fukk up breh. I wasn't trying to floss, just offer some advice that has worked for me, network, work hard, and work smarter then most of your counterparts. That's all I was saying. If that rubbed your bitter ass the wrong way, its probably because you a broke bitter bytch who doesn't own or have shyt. Can't help that fact breh. Keep your funky ass 2 cents through nikka.

 

[KENNY DA COOKER]

Can you give us some insight on Jay’s famous “92 bricks” line from “Never Change?”


I’m not sure. You know what Jay says, “Believe half of what you see, none of what you hear, even if it's spat by me.” [Laughs.] Back then it was another life, so he raps about certain things, but it’s not to be glorified.

 

[New Username]

it wasn't 92 bricks (keys)

He was exaggerating , probably lost a couple packs tho and had to get right to make it all back
