And as an avid rap fan... I really find folly in your comments... Jay-Z is the greatest rapper of all time (as far as fans goes) He has survived multiple era's and cycles of rap music and has stayed afloat thru it all... Rap is a "borrowers culture" Most of today's rap music is filled with samples from soul, jazz, and r&b songs from years ago... Many rappers piggyback off of others lyrics all the time.. Jay-Z is one of the most borrowed rappers of all time also... Meaning other rappers borrow ideas and wordplay from him... For example... In basketball there is the crossover dribble.... The great dunks that we see today Were already done before.... I don't know what your crying about frankly there is a lot of business going behind the scenes... Did you know Jay-Z wrote songs for other rappers.. this is called Ghostwriting.... It's a fact Jay-Z wrote Dr. Dre's lyrics on his last cd..... It's a possibility Jay was writing for Big... Ok... Now just for fun... Let's look at Jay-Z's career..... Sold millions, made millions... made more millions.. always owned part of his label.... See him in the streets no bodyguards... Now is president of Def Jam... Is Dating Beyonce the dream lady of even white men Honorable Mentions: Biggy R.I.P he was on Bad Boy just an artist Tupac R.I.P was getting cheated for his money Ja Rule enjoyed lots of success before getting career deaded by 50 50 Cent Is Rap's New Superstar needs 9 bodyguards just to go to the gas station, because he started his career off BEEF and DRAMA Snoop has to whore himself for any and everything (you might see Snoop in a dog food commercial one day), plus got cheated for his money by Death Row just like Tupac Nas, was broke first half of his rap career, just now starting to get back on his feet money wise.... Dre, owns aftermath is making a lot of money... but got slapped by somebody Suge paid, and has to have restraining orders against Suge just so he can breathe comfortably... Nobody else really stands out.... Jay-Z Won |

tons of rappers do this, its just them being influenced by other rappers. every rapper is influenced by someone. you have a compilation of like .001% of all the lyrics he ever wrote and you act like hes ripping off complete verses. not to mention hes using some of these lyrics on purpose and its not like hes trying to pull them off as his own.
|
Rap beats and lyrics in themself are very pastiche. Sampling and borrowing happen all the time. Its almost a sign of respect.
|
Dood are you fucking kidding? these rhymes are just respect for other artists.
Jay-Z and most all other great rappers dont write, they free style, and they use influences from stuff they like.. there is nothing wrong with that, you know how many rhymes Jay-Z has spit on. he is a nice MC. he is just spitting off the mental.. this thread is really stupid and whoever wasted their time making that mix for hating purposes can eat a fat dick ooops i must be biting humpty |
Jayz had 10 consecutive multi platinum albums since 1996 how many artists have done that?
you aint seen money in your life, when it comes to this cheese you like 3 blind mice Jay-Z |
who cares its just noise anyway

Who cares, he sucks. All around he has no skills. Why would anyone think he wrote his shit? Most rappers rip beats and rhymes, not much different than this business.

"Music is a business". yeah, and that's no excuse to re-re-re-reproduce the same sound.
Being a musician myself, I can't stand those who rip off, borrow, steal (whatever you wanna call it) from other artists (whether it be in the form of lyrics or riffs)... a great artist, IMO, is one who is able to bring a significantly new taste to his/her genre - a sound marked with individuality, UNIQUENESS, CREATIVITY, and quality. so saying "THAT'S WHAT MOST RAPPERS DO" is an excuse to explain a lack of musical talent and creativity. |
He calls himself "the greatest of all time"... well, when you steal lines from legends, it isn't hard really...
Wow even took lines from Slicky Ricky... |

For all those who haven't listened to Snoop, his ONLY good album is Doggystyle. He's a one album wonder, but what a good album it was. I haven't listened to the Jay Z link posted. I'll have a listen to the link sometime today. |
