99 problems is typical jay subject matter... nothing new there
try again -
Yes. Top 5 DOA and with only topic to rap about: Having money and how he got it.
-
lol at RD being average...exits thread

jay does mostly focus on how he makes his money and how he's the ? , but a long shot from one dimensional. like you say eminem is multi dimensional but he's only good at personal content and shock rap. he's yet to make a good club song, and jay's catalog is way better.

"Some people have used this song as evidence that i worship the devil..... It's really just laughable. But the sad part is that it's not even remotely a song about devil worship! It's a song about the intersection between of some basic human emotions, the place where sadness meets rage, where our need to mourn meets our ? for justice, where our faiths meet our inclination to take matters into our own hands, like karmic vigilantes. People who hear the word Lucifer and start making accusations are just robbing themselves of an opportunity to get in touch with something deeper than that, something inside their souls."

I am not sure he defintely gives eminem a run for his money both defintely stay in their comfort zones or lanes per se...
-
thread should have been "jay has bit more than any other goat", because that's an argument you can back up.
-
all the other GOAT canidates catalogues are littered with diverse social commentary
wheres JAYs?
-
LOL at social commentary, oh you mean pandering.
Like i said about Eminem or any rapper, it's not what you rap about it's how you rap about it. You can only rap about your experiences imo, it's all about how you execute it to me.
As for social commentary and all that other pretentious nonsense, i think Jay gives that from his pov. How is a song like Regrets, Dead Presidents, Lucky Me,etc not social commentary? Jay just kicks it from his pov and his experiences.
Ya'll have this idea that if a ? ain't feeding you that Kente cloth ? , it's not real. -

How is it dumb, do you relate to killing ? , ? r and b ? , millions, being on the front lines of Africa fighting? Nope more than likely you've never experience none of that ? ? . What you relate to is the execution of these subject matter of certain artist. Rapping is no damn different that movie directing, it's about telling a story for entertainment value. -

the jay before the blue print I can listen to

ROFL @ ROFL..IDIOT getting banned!
Bahahahaha!!!! -
I love jay but its funny that you can actually name all his songs that really are about something in less than 5 seconds. But he isnt as bad as we like to make him out to be. He it what it it is just turn him off if he's not what you looking for.
-
Nope, not even close.
-
Lil Wayne stole his formula, raps about the same ? , as lamontbdc says ' you can actually name all his songs that really are about something in less than 5 seconds.' but in order for him to be the Don Jay has to go... this explains the recent shots at jAY.

Beenie better than Jay.

Beach Chair was Jay's attempt at "social commentary"
