    Jay Z isn't a kid anymore and hasn't been for some time. He is almost 50 and has a family. It makes sense that his message and delivery should change. It's called growth...

      He raps about personal things on a few songs on a few albums. If you listen to his albums you can see him fighting his demons some albums are more braggadocio, some more hard and some more personal. But he's always rapped about meaningful things, it has just always been in the shadow of the drug dealer and materialism which is a reflection of where he's from.

      He grew back some albums and years ago, people started saying he was "falling off" when he moved to a more mature substance & material. As Michael Perry noted...the masses had to grow to accept it. Some still haven't.

      cerebral dome - if you were from NY - where hip hop was birthed - then you would know. Most of the US has no clue (just like they don't know most of the break dancers were Puerto Rican)... Maybe some in South Florida who had access to Jamaican dancehall would know too. The fact that you don't know history doesn't mean it's not a fact.

      @PS-mj8hl 7 лет назад +12

      cerebral dome dude your an idiot, this is what u hate about my generation everyone wants to argue and shit but no one wants to research and find out the facts. Fact is hip hop was started by a JAMAICAN DJ in the Bronx who would play late 70's records with his turntable. The MC or master of ceremony would then perform Jamaican style TOASTING (rhythmic chanting) over the track which then evolved to rapping. The carribean influence in hip hop and to a greater degree African American culture as a whole makes PERFECT SENSE AS OVER 80% of Africans brought to america came via the West Indies. Wake up read a book and know your history my brother.....

Bam was made in the 70's or 80's and has been sampled over a 1000xs...and she will receive another nice check because of Jay Z !

    • @jzenaerogers2051
      @jzenaerogers2051 7 лет назад +94

      Shontae Greene that's not what he was referring to. He is from NY. "I can't take a threat I got a set of twins" referring to the 9/11 attack. The "twins" are a representation for the twin towers,which were destroyed without a warning. Which is always why he said you'll never hear those words again. Deep shit.

    • @shontaegreene7332
      @shontaegreene7332 7 лет назад +46

      jzenae rogers I don't think so...unless he explained it in an interview. I can be mistaken. I took it as he won't speak on it again because he's really not the type to brag about having guns but just know he's prepared for whatever...and prepared to protect his babies

      drewb4u2 Canjam I like JA but the Caribbean is more than just JA. What about Haiti, Trinidad& Tobago, Grenada, St. Vincent& the grenadines, Barbados, Puerto Rico, Bahamas, Cuba, Dominican Republic, St. Kitts, St. Lucia, St. Martens, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Dominica, Antiqua and the list goes on and on. So therefore JA is not just the Caribbean, that is just being bias cause you're Jamaican. Like I said I love JA and JA ppl but some of y'all are known to be bias. I'm Haitian I could of said my ppl change the meaning of freedom in the islands they were the first black freed republic in the Western Hemisphere. The Haitian revolution is very historic but I know what my African/Haitian ancestors did I do not have to be bias or brag about it.

      Aditya Kamble Nah, grime is the cousin, but the root of Hip Hop in terms of expressing oneself lyrically with such depth and perception is from Reggae

      CHERUSCI 14 actually, we were already in our downfall spiritually before y'all came into existence. The ancestors made y'all when they were in the lows..now tell me how that makes you feel? And then after we created y'all we let you "take over" the house while we went on "vacation" for a lil bit. But now we are awakening which is all good ;)

    I always said Jamaica invented rap. dancehall goes back to the 70's, hip-hop born in 80's N.Y. where many Jamaicans settled.
