this is true, Jaz O was the creator of the double-time flow, hence the name The Originator. anyone saying Jay got that from Fu was probably born around 1988 or shortly thereafter.
Such as the poster ur quoting. Lol. I said Jay had the Jaz “originators” flow. But the Fu Shnickens shyt was a lil different and cornier and Jay started to adopt that.

I know for damn sure I don’t have a hidden agenda. shyt like I said before if Sonny Cheeba is lying that shyt ain’t got nothing to do with me.

I hope no one thinks I have an agenda, I am just posting what the artists said out of their mouths. Ski said Feelin It was already recorded when Jay heard it he told him to give it to him but what may come as a shock to most is Jay used Ski's original flow on the song. so yeah, Ski did coach Jay on the flow. Ski been rappin almost as long as Jay.

Yea. From what I saw it seems like Jay took the flow. vs Ski actually sitting there and coaching him how to flow. That’s basically what I was tryna say.

no no, Ski was actually cool with it. It was with his blessing. still, stans will say Jay wasnt using other peoples styles/flows which is historically incorrect.

There would be no Jigga without Camp Lo.

What I mean by that is they were the first rappers ever using the word “jigga” in their rhymes. It was part of their blacksploitation slang. Listen to the song Coolie High among others. Jay was around them due to the Ski affiliation. Nicca took the word jigga and the flows and ran with it. You can definitely hear it on Feeling It.

Jay had the audacity to try to steal Luchini from the Camp Lo brehs, but Ski wasn’t gonna let that happen.

“And I’m forever in the leather lookin jigga”

I HATE HATE HATE how this board has turned into creating revisionist history. There are facts here, all verifiable except for most of what @Awesome Wells posted, unless he has links.

Also, again, this shyt happened 25 years ago, how could it possibly effect how you like someones music today?!?!

Jay was just one of those dudes who shark dudes on the low. See someone's flow or posture and emulate it. Or see what trend is bubbling and ride it. Has always been that way.
You do realize, a ton of MC's did the same to him right? If I had a dollar for every "hustler" type rapper that came out after Reasonable Doubt I'd be rich. Everybody is influenced by somebody in the game. As has been mentioned, Russell wouldn't even sign Nas because he said he sounded too much like G-Rap. Jay reminds me of Kane more that Cheeba actually. Kane was obviously influenced by Grandmaster Caz.

I was born in 88 and never said that.

Nas said he rapped like them though
