Someone caught Jaz-O on the subway

[cornercommission2k12]

He said he ain't sign the contract and be a part of the Roc-A-Fella team (and open the door for more opportunities) because it was a slave record deal and he would have turned out broke and played out.................



Guess he got the best out of that situation!

Get rich














Or die riding

Dukes riding the subway, I dont see the big deal

The expectations yall have for Rappers to maintain a specific image 24/7 is ridiculous.

Exactly

it's nbd.. I saw an NBA player on the subway recently it's whatever

 

[Firefly]

I don't think it's the fact that he's riding the train, LOL

It's the fact that dude is looking extra dusty, riding the train........AND had the opportunity to not be in that position but thought he knew better than everybody else........

John Stockton couldn't assist him

"Consumerism is why we are where we are. Consumption simply means “to use up”. We’ve become users and like the saying goes – You are what you eat (or use). The problem with living in a culture of consumption is that your value is attached to the money you make or that can be made off you.

This is why America hates the poor. My heart hurts every time I see someone shame a person asking for money. I hate the way we shame and yell at poor people like we’re better. But that’s the culture of consumption we live in. A poor person doesn’t make money, which is the biggest shame we impose on them.

The culture of consumption we live in is also based steeply in manipulation. It plays on basic human needs to make a profit. What do I mean by basic human needs? Things like

-Respect

-Pride (or self-worth)

-Dignity

-Connectedness (or community)

These are not just values folks. They are not just desires. They are needs, something essential to humanity like air, food and water. Advertisers and marketers know this. So what do they do? Make commercials and ads that say “You are nothing and you are nobody unless you______.”
-Dr. West

He never had a top 10 single so why are you expecting him to be a millionaire? I hate the way we put the rich on a pedestal in this country and especially in hiphop

jay should be ashamed

 

[Nino Soprano]

U nikkas are so disrespectful

 

[Crakface]

All he needs is a paper bag with some booze in it and a dirty cup.

 

[FreshAIG]

thats 100% him.

This. Anyone that says it's not him clearly doesn't know what Jaz O looks like.

 

[FreshAIG]

I dont know the back story of him and Jay...
...but I dont like to see anyone down that hasnt done harm to others.

...but just because he's on the train doesnt mean he's struggling...its fukking NYC...everybody rides the train.

I was gonna say this too. Everyone takes the train in NYC. Everyone.

 

[really tho]

when struggle hits.....

Watched the whole thing. Dude isn't salty at all. Keeps it realer than most.

I bet he's happier than your favorite artist, just from the way he looks at things. Got a lot more respect for him from that video. Educated, street knowledge.

Cats expect everybody to drive a drop-top these days

 

[SubLyminalz]

i guess he couldn't get in touch with capadonna

 

[Sam Peel]

that guy is missing a lot of teeth if not them all, that's why his face is sunken in. unless jaz- o started smoking crack and lost his teeth recently.

How did he have a chance not to be in that position?..dude was makin bread and producing at the time and said they hit him wit a wack contract..he didn't wanna sign it.. Did u specifically see the terms of the contract?..what about nikkas like Beans who was successful or ANYONE else on the Roc?..where they at?..Beans is locked up and been strugglin for a minute.. Name ONE nikka who was on the Roc who really eatin right now?..aside from a nikka like Cam who was gonna hustle regardless and had a great business mind and didn't let nikkas play him...Freeway is doin ok..most successful nikka aside from Jay on the Roc is Kanye West...Memphis Bleek ain't even on some crazy ballin shyt..he has his own ventures and gets money from that...Jaz is an older dude riding the train in NY..what's the big deal here?..

Yeah. Unless you're upper crust and have a driver the train will inevitably make its way into your life. I think the plastic bag is what adds a tragic element to this pic.
