Boosie Miss the message behind it lol

“The Story of O.J.,” which was accompanied by a black and white short film, gives a history lesson on the legacy of slavery, while also providing wisdom on achieving the American Dream. One of his most memorable lines, suggests in order to achieve financial growth and stability, people need to stop taking pictures holding money up to their ear. “Y’all out here still takin’ advances, huh? / Me and my ? takin’ real chances, uh / Y’all on the ‘Gram holdin’ money to your ear / There’s a disconnect, we don’t call that money over here,” he raps. But Boosie wasn’t ready to give up on his stacked lifestyle.

During an Instagram Live video feed on Sunday (June 2), Boosie took some time to present the opposing argument to Hov’s recent song. “I got love for JAY-Z, but ya’ll telling me I shouldn’t put stacks in my ear if JAY-Z says it. These Louisiana n***as don’t rock like that,” Boosie said as fan comments continued to pop up on the Insta-live screen. In his hand, the rapper was holding a large stack of dollar bills. “If JAY-Z tell you jump off the Eiffel Tower, you going to jump,” he continued. “JAY-Z don’t run the South! I’m still holding money to my ear.”







Some ? really hate to be helped. SMH @ holding paper money to your ear being a culture

Dehaven is all on IG riding Hov nh...

Weird.

Link

IC won't link captions but u can see them for yourselves.

Bunch of other photos too

Plan A didn't work for him so he's on Plan B right now.
I been a Jayz fan since reasonable doubt,I have been on his side through the beans, dame and currently Kanye beef, he provided opportunities for those guys to be rich forever.
One thing I will never support him for is his treatment of Jaz o and dehaven.
I don't care what they did to him, he doesn't have to hang with them, he can just set them up financially especially jaz o.
It sad to see where he's at financially and where Jaz o is at. "I came in the game on Jaz back"
This is not about who wronged who,it's about making sure Jaz o is good.he deserves it.

But Jaz-O didn't sign the contract

I get that but how long are we going to count that against him?
I just wish That someday he will find it in his heart to help put the originator back on.

White folks claiming anti semitism

How did they get that out of what was said?

Might be that line about jewish people owning everything om tje story of oj. Its a reach

Of course but it's not anti Semetic at all
The song plays on stereotypes to drive a point.
They didn't play it to understand just to hear.

I remember the same white folks were calling TPAB "racist". Like how in the hell did they even come to that conclusion?

Jaz-O put Jay-z on songs and made videos of them when he had a deal. And he wasn't even popping like that. Thats like given your man $20 when you only had 50 to last all month. If it wasn't for Jaz who Jay took his name from, showing him he could get legit money, I doubt he be in the situation he is in now. He gave Jay his first look. And a big look. What ever happened between them, it would be no Jay-Z without Jaz-O. That man should financially stable.

Thanks for pointing those out. I didn't really want to point out things Jaz O to help jay which actually helped jay to become the jay he is today
Jaz O produced Ain't no ? , which was the song that opened the industry doors for Jay.Jaz took jay with him to London on Jaz Os album budget when he was recording his first album,Jaz did a lot for jay. Jay was doing his thing in the streets, Jaz was the guy that pulled him from the streets to the rap game."I came in the game on Jaz back" that was jay in jigga my ? .
Like you said Jaz O should be taken good care of financially.

He is, but he's made a career off it, so no reason to hate at this point.
