He might be wrong on racism or America, but he isn't a shitty rapper and worked with image and investments to make money.
If anything he is being attacked by the industry he built for trying to improve the image and culture of it.
I get rap music isn't for everyone, so I wouldn't dare ask someone to listen to a song, but listen or at least read the lyrics to The Story of OJ.
The guy does exactly what most conservative jaw bumpers ask. Tells the people listening to get over the image and 'cultcha' and make something by looking at what other ethnicities/cultures have done. Invest, build from within, etc.
I don't pretend rap/hip-hop is some great artform, but sometimes it can remind you of classic country and speak a lesson....if you aren't too closed minded to listen

I honestly thought he and his wife were already billionaires. They've done quite well for themselves. Congrats to him. Always liked him.

This is just an indefensible opinion, IMO.
Jay-Z has some great lyricism in his earlier work. For my money, verse 2 in D'Evils is lyrically the best rap verse ever. Then, he transitioned to incredible commercial success and was as commercially successful as any rapper.
If you just don't like rap, that's one thing. But calling him a ****ty rapper? Objectively, he's the exact opposite. He had critical, technical and commercial success, which is no small thing.

I don't like his music at all but I do respect the hell out of him. He started out selling drugs and rapping in the slums of Brooklyn. He used his music to get himself out of his hood. He then put himself around people much smarter than himself, learned to invest, start businesses, etc. 30 years later he is a billionaire. That's how you do it.

No thanks. I'll leave that to you, Jay-Z, and Obama.

I thought so also. Anyway, Jay-z sucks and bey could do better.

Agreed. Moving from broke to one of the ~600 richest men in America is something we all should respect, but some people just can't bring themselves to do it. Most of us take great pride in first assembling a net worth of 1 million no matter how liberal the math is.
He got 99 problems but the OT's opinion ain't one.

Post Malone is the most talented of them all...

Not bad, from selling drugs a little over some decades ago to becoming a billionaire. . His wife is also pretty close to being a billionaire.
Let's not all act like selling out to the Illuminati and the Rockefellers and Rothchilds isn't helping them out tremendously. Jay-Z is only a slightly above average rapper, he's not close to Snoop, Ice Cube, or even Ludacris. There is a reason he is in the BBC. Same with Beyonce.

That's not true at all.
What about the young white boys that listen to it?
Posted on 6/4/19 at 7:33 am to CaptainPanic
Yeah but apparently you can’t put a price tag on being white though so at least I have that on him.

Ehhhh, that's pretty much ever generation. You get old and don't pay attention to the new stuff. Doesn't matter the medium. My grandpa was not humming 99 problems while doing chores around the house because he overheard it on the TV. My other grandpa was, but he's always been kind of gangsta.
