    I had to fall back and think about what he had to say
    Nobody is getting shot by the cops because of gender

    Females getting it in other ways than getting shot by cops dont be dense

    Lets be real aint no ? way would i change being a black man in racist ass america for being a female of any race

    Im not for the current standard of femism but females can easily have a far worse life than the average black man

    I dont think we ahould choose sides or even speak about which is worse

    Why compare both? Racism and sexism are both problems.

    Because people seem to think you can't address multiple things at the same time so whenever one form of oppression is brought up another group of people come running up with their "But what about me" statements

    Because being shot by the cops is the only injustice a person can face.

    I agree with it being a toss up. Black women being doubly afflicted.

    You can address multiple issues without making them compete with each other. As a matter of fact, this is the very reason people come running up with their but what about me statements, as you stated.

    He being real disingenuous right now, by taking advantage of the hot topic of the moment. All these accusations coming out, is it really that surprising he's making that statement? Jay a very smart dude, he said it for cool points.

    What about the money cash ? 's tho? This dude made a career talking bout how much money he make and how he ? on women, now he's a women's rights advocate. FOH

    He needs to be quiet before any skeletons in his own closet start rattling.

    He made Money Cash Hoes what 19/20 years ago? One would hope he's grown since then and wouldn't still hold that same mentality. The real thing that I've seen some folks get at Jay over is he completed a deal w/ the Weinstein company and hasn't said anything regarding that situation. That's the part where he's coming off looking fake.

    My point is, he built and maintained his career based off that. He's an opportunist though, notice 4:44's timing. He's doing this to stay relevant which is why it's ? to me.

    Of course he is. He told you years ago. He's a hustler not a rapper.

    Jay been doing this damn near his whole career, hoppin on the "hottest" wave at the moment. Nobody who's been following him his whole career shld be surprised by this.

    With that said he had more than a few ppl(nobody of importance) call him out for his hypocrisy once 444 dropped.

    I'm not comparing the two.
    I also think we need to not talk about America like it's a person.

    There's alot of sexists and misogynists in the United States, there's also alot racism.

    White America has always been sexist and racist. Period. Not saying its only white people but lets be clear they are the dominant culture in this society that infects everything it comes in contact with.

    Kanye might be a weirdo at times.....but at least he’s a genuine weirdo.

    Jay Z on the hand, is so into positioning and marketing that his words fall on deaf ears.
