Over the past few years these rappers have seemed to hop.on the BLM pseudo pro black shyt.. Jay Z plus other rappers like TI and David Banner who were never on that before.

Even with Common''s last album the material doesn't feel genuine. It feels like he is pandering to the same Hollywood liberals who gave him an Oscars and not the actual fans.

but what if it is real?

Ayo,...
so, this sellout nikka gets to use all the sellout jiggaboo time imagery and throw he was a sellout in your face.
simply cause he soul'd out to make all his money.
Then try to make it like it was a great business decision.
while him and the clown who ruined everything about rap gloat about it on record and in Forbes.
yet nikkaz is ignoring this.


y'all some hoes for that.



art barr

You have to be on the correct side to begin with to sellout.
He's been telling the youth to sell drugs to each other and worship white money from the inception.

It is a not so subtle brag... i mean hes bigging up white people in the song and telling black people they lving wrong... ie. Do as white people do...

Yet the militants loving every minute of it. Im confused by the forums reaction to it.

Is it black girl lost or shorty owe you for ice jay?

Same dude who admitted to being a sell out to triple his dollars, now too old to rap ho he used to ie hustling on the block, jumping on the black lives matter bandwagon/kendrick vibe...

I see what arts saying

Art Barr you overthinking shyt as usual, what if the nikka Jay just grew up as a person, i mean what if he has a new perspective on life and things, what if he experienced somthin that changed his mind bout things? he makes music and going thru life like the rest of us, cool out my nikka, all you do is talk shyt bout the most popular artists and highlight all of their inconsistencies but aren't we all insonsistent at times, we just see and hear theirs. According to you people aren't allowed to grow mentally or spiritually, i mean cmon bruh nobody is perfect especially nobody in this thing we call hip hop, all these nikkas is hypocrites and shyt and some are pedophiles ask your hero KRS.

Thats cool and all but Jay came in the game old enough to know better. Not even a few yrs back he was on some of his same bullshyt. Theres something very inauthentic about dude..

It's not what do what "white people do" - it's do what one needs to do to make it in America.

He saying you have the talent or you are in the position (legally or illegally) to access sums of cash - use it the way others create wealth for themselves, families and communities.

Money has no color. But, Black people have not been taught or shown how to flip and grow their money into way it grows and stays in their hands and their families hands for generations.

And sadly, many of us are living wrong. Sure, other races are too - but we are definitely doing so - well those who are descendants of the enslaved in America - because we have been allowed access to that type of money due to Reconstruction, Black codes, Redlining, etc.

People grow. Priorities change. I started my business over 10 years ago - what I spent money on back then and what I cared about back then - is 360 what I care about, talk about and spend money on now. I use to be about self - now I think about my family and their future - and how my actions can help them have a even better life after I am dead and gone.

That's what I feel like Jay is trying to preach to those who need to hear it - or haven't heard it enough for something to click in themselves to make better decisions.

I understand where Art is coming from....ima just address the imagery in the video:
A few years ago Tyler the creator was selling t shirts with the same type of characters eating chicken and watermelon
Black folks was outraged
He didn't get a pass, neither does Hov

Imagintry and it's message is based on how it's delivered and who is delivering it.

I like Tyler - but Tyler is young and have always been on some #alllivesmatter ish - and didn't have an explantation or reason for using it. He thinks everything is funny and up to be used for jokes - and it's not. Things like that have to be explained or used in a manner where one is teaching or sparks someone to go learn more. Not for jokes but for knowledge of self or the images and why they were used.

Jay-z's message and lyrics along side of those images - especially in this day and age mean something. It's a grown man who understands how powerful yet how damaging those images were on the psyche of Black America. Reusing them to reprogram or trigger something mentally in the descendants of who those images were placed upon -- to take back themselves and redefine themselves and reclaim their self-love, financial power and communities back. And too see we need to come together - and stop thinking everything is so great now. And the myth of race doesn't matter. It does when your Black and that's fine - but let's get on the same page.

Jay-Z accumulated his wealth by "living wrong". By encouraging his fan base to "live wrong". Now suddenly he's gonna tell yall to get like him, but stop "living wrong"? The nikka is an a$$hole to the highest power. And you sheeple are eating it up. Dude ain't said shyt Ross and Gotti ain't been saying for the past 3 years or so.

Agreed. But, people change and I can only imagine the shame and regret he may have for the images, messages he put out on our community. So, I take this as a step in the right direction. No matter what - his message can wake up some people to changing their lives and making smarter money decisions. Especially young men and women who don't have their fathers or male figures in their lives.

im very happy he went this route with the album........ but you cant get rich off selling drugs and then rapping about selling drugs and then wait till your worth 800 Million before you now half turn conscious and expect people not to be suspicious though.
Its seems somehow not genuine. something about jay always seems non genuine, like this is all just a money grab because BLM and LGBT is trending right now. guy is viewed as a scam artist sometimes and i see why. Some ill lines though but If he really means this then he'll follow it up with actions that actually matter on a political level , i wanna see stuff like what Colin Kapernick did, him actually putting himself all the way out there for the people and the message he now seems to care about so deeply. For now i remain skeptical about his ''change''
This is just jay being jay making that money.

Everything is about making money. But, that doesn't mean you can't drop some lessons, how-to's and best practices at the same time or during the money exchange.

That's the game of business.

Work with anyone who calls themselves an entrepreneur or owns a business. Time is money. No one is doing anything for free out here. You WILL be charged --- but if you get the chance to be around them, or if they feel they can help you by telling you something you may not know - but can help you --- they will. Or if you are a employee and work with them long enough - you will be taught or pick up on some things that will change up your life and money.

That's how I look at what he's doing for some.

He didn't change. He's capitalizing off "the woke" movement. He's as disingenuous as a person can get. "I'm giving you a million dollars wortha game for $9.99" WTF? You so concerned about your people and wanting them to make it, why aren't giving them "game" for free? He's so concerned about black ownership, why didn't he partner with a black company for the launch? Is Sprint suddenly black owned?

All of that suspicious shyt is in your head. He is a human being homie...

:snoop:

Anyway, as you can see...fukk the artistry, fukk the philanthropy, it's all for show, he's gotta do his show on one knee Colin Kapernick style. Still an untrustworthy drug dealing nikka.

:mjlol:

Respect fam...but at the moment...i don't feel it's sincere coming from jay...its a Lotta conscious pimps out here...its the preacher hustle repackaged for the new millennium...just to keep it a buck the song isn't really saying anything revolutionary...we've just been drowning in so much bullshyt that it seems like a breath of fresh air...who is he talking to? Black people know that we're still considered nikkas...c00ns don't....and the message will go over their heads.....he speaks on rappers signing deals....but isn't he signing artists to 360 deals? He's worth over half a billy...drop the album for free if you feel the masses need the message so badly....this the same guy that was selling occupy all streets t shirts to capitalize off the occupy wall street movement.....
