Video Jay-Z Breaks His Silence—“We Played Enough Defense, 2026 is All Offense”

You're the top poster in the game emulator thread Mr. Robinson.

You can't afford to go see your goat in the Bronx. The Bronx.

yeah? What about it, you nerd ass nigga?

You the top poster in the Drake Iceman thread you fuckin dick goblin. That shit says way more about you.

And you Canadian? Brother, I laugh at everything you post. You try to be all smug with your fuck ass opinions and Canadian life experiences like they fucking matter as a Canadian. Fuck outta here, pussy. We could NEVER relate on any level. Not one. Newsflash, dickhead…no matter what you say, your opinions on rap will always be on some outsider shit…..black or not

I wonder if he connects Blue’s aversion to really working at something she’s naturally gifted to do (piano) to how he was with rap at first. I seem to remember him saying at one point that rap came so easy he didn’t see the value in it so didn’t work at it at first. That’s why it took him so long to become a rapper.

I have a daughter that’s a gifted artist but she doesn’t want to have anything to do with trying to monetize it. She doesn’t see the value in it and I tell her this Jay-Z story all the time.

The way he spoke about it, she values the dancing more because she had to work harder at it. Also, it's not always a bad thing to just enjoy a talent and not try to monetize it

Yeah I get that and agree, but imagine if Jay-Z felt that way about rapping? I tell my kids all the time that the most successful people marry their talent with work ethic. Not to say they can’t be successful otherwise, but the ceiling is much higher with the former.
 
I enjoyed this interview. his answers gave insight on who he is as a person and how he views the world, which of course guides his decisions (especially the controversial ones)

I gave a side eye at some of his comments, but I don’t have to agree with everything he says. as a fan i’m just here for music

I agree...but if you got more than 1 talent then you have the option to pick and choose. Also add in the difference in circumstances. Jay had to rap...his daughter doesn't. That feeling of having no other options factored into Jay taking rap seriously.
