How is the production being good a knock against Jay? No popular song ever is gonna be popular with bad production
He’s using all these relative arguments to say Jay isn’t a goat at all and it’s stupid. First it’s the argument Jay isn’t a goat at all cause he isn’t as good as Nas or Biggie, then his rapping isn’t anything to write home about cause people like his guest hooks and prod
Jay catalog full of filler and duds, masked by a handful of hot singles that popped either because A) pop singer hook or B) Kanye/production. His marketing is truly out of this world tbh

He made hella money off tidal what you mean😂
How does one make "hella money" off a streaming service that nobody uses it 😂

Bought it for 50 million and sold his shares for 300 million, is that not hella money?
But it was a thing from like 98 - 04.
In fact people still wear button ups
You think people who wear button ups in 2023 are doing so because of Jay z

wtt and 4:44 isnt better than tba
Bought it for 50 million and sold his shares for 300 million, is that not hella money?
Didn't know that, good for Jay I guess
Only time TIDAL got any sort of traction was when 4:44 and Lemonade was released exclusively on it
Dead ass don't know anyone IRL that uses TIDAL or even heard of it

tlop chaotic release
The mf with the most quotables ever isn’t a goat sure. The posterboy for being great at flow isn’t a goat yeah sure. The guy who made biggie stop writing his raps down isn’t a goat sure. The king of wordplay, I could go on
Is there plenty of lame s*** about his history? Yeah, and his discography isn’t flawless. But all that I listed + having some of the greatest classics in the genre’s history is nothing to scoff at. Mfs who are mad that their beloved Dr Dre-affiliated megastar rappers who fell off aren’t held in the same esteem as Hov can f*** off with these tired arguments. It’s old now

hov def isnt the mostt quotable rapper
drake got that for a min now
not an L. He put Ron Browz little attempt at being a solo artist into the ether
Jay must have been sick to his stomach hearing that autotuned "Ether Boy" tag all over the airwaves
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
I’m talking about both, tbh.
There’s also nothing wrong with the Futures, Travises, etc. of the world using it the way they are in my opinion either.
It’s just a vocal effect, and it’s fun and cool
Nah him losing 92 bricks of cocaine is probably his biggest L
2nd would be his investment of TIDAL and it flopping
Didn’t he sell his portion of it for hundreds of millions
he was lowkey dissing Ron Browz and not t-pain. nigga was committing war crimes with autotune and i know hov was sick of hearing this in the club
!https://youtu.be/pqD9wSPwTP0Beat sounds like banana slips
hov def isnt the mostt quotable rapper
drake got that for a min now
Drake got quotables for the casuals, Hov got quotables for the culture
T Pain should’ve been smacking niggas back then for slandering autotune and trying to mess up his career.

Premo’s gone on record sayin Biggie didn’t write down Unbelievable and that Biggie himself said he didn’t write anything down on paper and that was in 1994, and Hov and Big didn’t meet until 1996
so no Hov didn’t inspire Biggie to not write down his lyrics
