well I'd like to say that I agree with you on all that you've said...
also, seperating the "Songs" forum would lessen response as it is..people on most boards will stay in one section and not go to the other, being as how this is a rap board people would usually stay in the "underground" section...
actually with this board doing that would leave the older and more mature people in the underground section for the most part and the younger people that don't appreciate "real" rap in the mainstream "bling bling, get a ho take her home, nigga I hustle" section...
far as Jay-Z goes, I don't like talking about him but since you asked, I'll say this about Jigga...he's likely the most commercially successful rapper of our time, if not all time thus far...I respect that fact as well as the fact that his metaphors and wordplay are what make him considered the "best rapper alive" HOWEVER to me he hasn't really grown as an artist...as a commercial rapper ther's only so much you can say, then you become redundant, for me Jay-Z reached that point along time aGo...
it's not that everyone ELSE is saying the same stuff, but HE'S saying the same stuff he's been saying for years...yes nigga we know you hustled, but stop talking about it, you haven't hustled in damn near a decade probably, switch it up or something, iono...
Jay-Z just doesn't have the same allure to me any more...I mean yeah I'm amaZed at the way he comes up with tracks, how he sits for like 30 minutes and has an entire track written in his head, that's amaZing and HOW he says stuff coupled with that are definetly above average, but his general content isn't anything fresh and that's where my opinion on him conflicts...
addressing the post above mind
Jay-Z can spit the phone book and not even rhyme and people will still go buy his CDs, because he's JAY-FUCKING-Z!!...he could bring his lyrics back up and still sell so I don't see why he doesn't...but when people figure out they can sell no matter what, instead of saying what they really wanna say, they just say whatever...that's why I don't like most of the heads in the industry now
