🤣🤣🤣🤣

moment of silence

When he tried to s*** on the money phone and future bodied him

Jay Z hate itt is wild. Then again KTT has a bunch of teenage Drake / Future Stan’s

You had a Charles Hamilton avi for ages. We didn’t forget

Song still hard

I hate the idea of someone s***ting on pitch correction.
It’s literally just an added technology that humanity developed to either make a great performance even better by smoothing out some flaws, or give new life to a performance by creating a cool effect that resonates with people.
There’s literally nothing wrong with pitch correction, or “autotune” and people who rag on it sound like geezers

Ah yes cause Jay isn’t revered as a goat at all for his rapping ability! 😃

when people say s*** like this i just assume theyve only listened to The Blueprint and The Blueprint 3

same vibes

but y'all don't have the same energy because it's jay z...

I’ll give him Pimpin and 99 Problems. Maybe D’Evils but that’s not really a hit song. Rest of em fall into that category. Like Dirt Off Your Shoulders, Crazy In Love, Empire, Heart Of City, Bonnie & Clyde, Encore, Lucifer, Feeling It, Hard Knock, Izzo, etc..

He can be a great without being a goat imo. Nas and BIG were better than him at pure rapping and way better at song making— in his own city when they were all in their primes(Pac too if you wanna include him as an NY rapper). How that guy ended up being labeled better than the other two/three is masterclass marketing. That’s where he’s unquestionably #1

Isn’t the topic of the thread but Takeover > Ether

cope

Jay z was never that nigga as much as he thought he was.

Dude tried to make platinum jewelry and button up shirts a thing and failed

He wasn’t against this type of auto tune

this was the industry standard way of using it before Tpain

Todays use of auto tune for artist like Future, Thug etc. is not what u describing in this post

100% Jay tried to make some auto tune s*** and it came out trash so he tried to shut it down for everyone else

Lmao would love to hear that record if it exists

But honestly Hov always been counter culture in his own way

He went against baggy street clothes too for suits & button ups

He went against the money phone

his thing is “growing up” hip hop

not even an L because of the content it’s an L cus this wayne song now

He is a goat how the f*** not? And Jay is definitely on par with if not better than Nas as a pure songmaker. Biggie himself felt the need to up his game as a rapper because of witnessing Jay in the studio like what

Charles got more great albums in 2008 than Hov has in his career

You beat him to it

jay even said when the song dropped that he wasn’t hating on the technology itself it was people using it poorly and just making bad songs and throwing it on their vocals because it was the thing to do
