JAY-Z SAYS RAPPER DMX IS THE REASON HE STEPPED HIS TOURING SKILLS UP
http://sickhop.com/2010/04/11/jay-z-...ing-skills-up/
In a recent interview with the Los Angeles Times, rapper Jay-Z mentioned that DMX’s stage performances inspired him. The mogul used to watch DMX and other artists’ shows to learn how to become a better performer.
“In hip-hop, there’s not many great performers,” Jay said in an interview. “I look outside the genre, measuring myself against others. I look at Madonna’s production and envy that. Daft Punk’s set…ll my early years? Forget it. I was a horrible performer. DMX tore me to pieces. I remember being stunned. [DMX] had me really working. But I had to figure this out. If you want to be a headliner, you better put on a headline show.”
He’s not lying, he was definitely “tore to pieces”! When DMX was in his prime, he gave the best shows money could buy. I remember leaving the Ruff Ryders/Cash Money Tour saying to myself, ‘DMX is the best performer ever’. X had that kind of effect on me, pause. Lol!
Jay Z owes alot to DMX -

Lls still waitin... its funny how ? avoid this post but still tend to say ? smh... like the ? who said dmx inspired jay to step his touring game up... lls name a rapper who performs live better then X... u ? is silly smh -
Jay-Z claimed DMX made him step up his touring skills...cool
Jay-Z thought the grammys disrespected DMX and other "? " hip-hop acts....cool
I'm not arguing any of that, my OPINION is that Jay-Z is a better rapper/MC than DMX....my argument NOW is that Jay-Z DID NOT SELL HIS SOUL TO BE LIKE DMX...do you see how crazy that sounds? Its not even a real thing.
Besides Jay wearing "shiny suits" was all about TV and exposure, like someone else mentioned most of the songs on Vol. 1 were gutter as hell.
Plus, DMX had been rapping longer than Jay...DMX was a great performer...why wouldnt Jay want to emulate that early in his career? theres nothing wrong with that. -

he was in murda ink .there was suppose to be him ja rule and dmx .the group was called murda ink.look it up they made a few dope songs

I know Jay, Ja, and x made a group but that whole group was signed to Def Jam. And Def Jam distributed Murder Inc. (the record label) Individually only Ja was signed to Murder Inc. -
Nah....Vol.3
na it wasnt a gangster themed albums, its was more vol.2 than RD and vol.1. it was more street songs then gangster songs imo -

na this was before they was signed to def jam(95), songs like time to build was recorded in 95 -

i thought other dude was referring to the group not the label -

Yea but Jay don't really make "gangster" songs. But Vol.3 had tracks like So Ghetto, Dope Man, There's Been A Murder, Come and Get Me. Easily his last most rugged album. -

I know that. But I guess its better if u look 4 yourself.

He was the savior. He was every new yorker best friend in 98. X saved def jam and New York singlehandedly without being a sellout like most of the mainstream NY artists were doing at the time. you ? right Jay Z sold his soul to be like DMX. DMX sold 8 million records for Def Jam alone in 1998. he had love all across the country. he was doing movies and arena tours when Jay Z was hula dancing in that ugly ass kiwi suit. thats why i dont give a ? about you jigga warriors because most of yall lames are just a bunch of ? who started listening to Jay Z in 2001 and dont know how he really wasnt holding summers or the charts down. It took Jay Z 10 albums to sell what DMX sold in 3. X was the face of eastcoast/def jam in the remaining years of the 90s and early years of last decade.
Damn, son....this is so true. How many JayHova witnesses are gonna deny this?
