and I disagree that hustlers that get it in don't become rappers.... this d00d was on yacht's doin it big on islands in his first video that he shot himself..... before he ever made a dime off rap.... jay-z always had cake right from the first day he came in the game.... he sat 100k on the desk of defjam to get in w/ them on distro/rap etc...

he may have been a small time hustler, but even small time hustlers make alot of money.... he might not have made millions & millions off it.. but he made enuff to get in the game....

and to me jay-z was built to rhyme, it was his calling in life, why the !! would he want to be some ill drug dealer? his popularity and name is solidified way more than being some bull!![..] drug dealer... that !! ain't cool for real... he got legal money now.... !! whoever downplay that !!, cuz that legal money I'll take any day of the week over hustler money....

a hustler ain't doing !! but !!ing up communities, and k!llin peoples lives..
and that's the !! you respect? over jay-z rapping in the game? doing legitimate business? some people got they priorities !!ed up for real.

The realest !! in the thread. :applause: But I think people are moreso upset with himself referring to himself as ever being a "gangster" when he probably wasn't, has ever been, or will be. I personally could careless I don't take rap that serious to begin with and he's not doing anything that the rest of rappers before and after him haven't done. [pic]
