Jay-Z's Retirement & Tha Roc's Future
 

ive heard rumors about jay-z retiring from rap soon.im not sure if they're true but if he does retire than i think Tha Roc is in trouble.Beanie is goin to jail,Freeway isnt doin much,Memphis Bleek is ass unless he's on someone else's song...which basically leaves Cassidy which may be Tha Roc's only hope....


Wat ya'll think?

Is the rumor even true?

lets clear some shit up...

1. "Black Album" is going to be Jay-Z's last album
2. Freeway is doing big things, his album his high on the Billboards chart
3. Memphis Bleek is tight, just wait for his next album..."M.A.D.E."
4. Cassidy isn't on Roc-A-Fella

thank you for your time

um memphis bleek is the shittiest one on ROC. and cassidy is ROC affiliated so shut the fuck up


thank you for your time

^^WORD!!!.. AND BLEEK IS FAR FROM WACK.... THE WORST ON THE ROC IS NEEF

BUT HOW CAN U SAY THE ROC IS IN TROUBLE.. WITH THE DIPSET.. STATE PROP.... TWISTA..... ODB...... YOUR STUPID!

^^ The ROC made there roster tight wit these people on it. And dont forget M.O.P.

Tru @ MOP.
ROC ain't going no where.

When you drop a quarter on the ground and when you bend down to pick it up and then there's a dollar what do you do?

Pick up the dollar, and stop thinking about the quarter.

Well most of you anyways.

Thats kind of what it would be like with the ROC, they see Jay Z as the quarter they'd pick him back up but they would just keep him for other uses. The dollar tho, is the new blood the dollar would be the new money, the pop mainstream rap artists. CHING CHING $$$

M.O.P is wack...............State Property is good Except for Freeway he is sooo FUCKIN garbage it aint funny.....guy has no flow or rhymes.......DIPSET is the best thing ROC has with them right now......

the Roc is in trouble because the only nigga they got that sells and can sell is Freeway, ODB's rhymes and hype aint big enough for him to sell, It is common knowledge that Bleek is weak State Property cant sell, Twista has ill skill but adrenaline rush was classic and most hip hop heads dont even know about it, he wont sell, and Dipset is largely just put into the "Gangsta Music" category,good for listening to on the block if u feel like redrum but not good for any replay or depth, The Roc only has 1 or 2 niggas who can sell and only 1 nigga who will sell, 1luv.

Tha ROC is tight...they got an ill roster...Twista, ODB, Memph Bleek, Freeway, Cam'ron, Dip Set, they are still good

and... word is theyre gona be signing copywrite after his victory in the roc the mic battle in columbus... so thats an umm interesting addition

If The Young Guns Are The Future Its Downhill
That Beat Sounds Like Something Bow Wow
Passed On As A Pipsqueek

Beanie Sigel....Average...
Freeway.....Sup Par...
Memphis Bleek..Really Trying To Sound Like Jigga
Peedi Crack..Wack
Eightball N MJG...Will Keep Rocafella Around
Twista..Will Become The Frontrunner And Become Recognizable

They'll Be Around Still Just Not As Strong
And Jigga Will Probaly Do Guest Appearances And
Come Back Like Too Short Did A Million Times

anyone who says Memphis Bleek is nice has no taste in music. And Freeway is ok. He'll get better with experience in the booth. Beanie is getting better every song but i dont think hes talented enough to elevate too much more. Jay is just gonna become like Dre and make his presence known while chillin in the background. Let's not forget about Kanye West. He's got some good lyrical skills fa sho. And you know he got tight beats

I SAY CAM'S GONNA TAKE OVER THE ROC, AND DIP SET FA SHO IS GONNA BE IN BUILDING DOIN THEY THING. IN A COUPLE OF YEARS THE WHOLE ROC IS GONNA BE DEAD CEPT FOR JUELZ AND KANYE

^LMFAO ignorance must be bred in harlem u A)believe u are ny's finest B)believe all of Roc will be dead in a matter of years and C)That Cantrom will run the Roc as i stated wether or not any of their emcees have skiill only one man on the Roc (Free) has shown he can sell blah blah can rap, blah blah cant rap it doesnt matter who will sell determines the Roc's future they've made themselves as a crew who's skill is decided by units sold, 1luv.

no... we dont give a shit about sales around here. We're not talking about business. Music and Business should have never been put together. We're discusssing whether ROC will be on the top as emcees. If you look at it from business then Pimp Juice and Ja Rule are on top. But IMO they both are down on the bottom rung of emceein. Shady/Aftermath and ROC are on top right now, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

i dun no young gun and that onther i dun no if then goin make it with out jayz there dragging it down

but still free way is going who to bring some hot shit

^^what did you say lassie?^^

M.O.P will keep hard shit for them coming
Eightball & MJG will keep the pimp shit for them
Memphis Bleek will be horrible trying to sound like jigga
Freeway will be subpar but still sell for them
Young Guns will be garbage
Twista will become a more recognizable artist
Beanie Sigel will be in jail
Peedi Crack will be garbage
Rell...whos he again?

They Got A Large Roster But 2 Or 3 Are Gonna Shine

Supposively Theyre Signing Copywrite....

Dame Dash Isn't Stupid

One can only hope that the Roc will fall apart..... Lord knows they hold nothing but shitty artists

Aftermath can fall into the shits as well. They are nothing but a bunch of ass artists, too. And don't even say Eminem or 50 Cent are dope, because, quite frankly, they aren't.

Eminem-Dope
Fifty Cent-Not Dope
G Unit- Not Dope
Obie Trice-Dope
Rest Of D12- Not Dope
Xzibit- Dope
Eve- Mainstream Dope Female Artist
Green Lantern- Dope DJ
Truth Hurts- Not Dope
Rakim- What Do You Thnk?

roc has too many acts to fuck up..
i dont know bout long term but MOP and Cam you can definitely bank on..


Aftermath/Shady is a ill battle roster but outta that same roster id can only bump Em G Unit and a lil Obie.. a lil Obie..



oh and Rakim thats a given..

im still correct "m.o.p. and cam you can bank on" thats funny the roc is over every fool they have is WACK Freeway is the only fool on the Roc i see getting sales and showing skill the rest only have one of the two and like i sed Roc is a label of record sales and the bottom line is that they only have a chump or two who will sell the end result being the Roc's death, 1luv.

rakim has left aftermath by the way.


as for the roc and jay.

the black album will be his last, and probably his best. no doubt the sales will be thru the damn cieling plaster.

roc runnin shit tho.


bar a coupla state property peeps noone on the roc is wack. not even bleek.. lol.


dont even argue.. lol

lol... roc-a-fella is one of the major labels in hiphop.

they have mad artists coming out.

i heard of this new kid Kayne West.. signed to the Roc.. and he's pretty tight....

they doing the damn thing

First of all let me clear up something just like Audo said
Black album is Jay's last album
Memphis is tight
also Freeway is doing big things
And Roc-A-Fella records has a new talent who is crazy although it still hasn't been said publicly it is still under wraos but watch out for the newest Rocafella records rapper named "Chicago"
