jay-z
Rapper.Gets his money [cuz] of other artists. he can be seen as the "Don [King]" of rap/hip hop. He's not rich [cuz] of his tracks, but off the business he handles on the side. no doubt hes rich, but lyrically speaking, hes wack. The day he uses original lyrics and makes good hits will be the day he's considered a true legend. I think [Nas] is still the best around. Not just because of the diss on Hova, but because his songs deal with the true life struggles of everyday people and issues concerning the world. jay-z is NOT on the level of [Nas], lyrically. real talk.
