Jigga on the new XXL which comes out soon

He holding Ny hostage from new artists

Sheeeiiiiittttt. It's more like hostages running to Jay Z to get held back: dudes mentioning Jay Z in their music, rapping to his old jams on mixtapes, copying his grunts on the music, following his brand of rap by dumbing down lyrics, disrespecting him in hopes of self-promotion. And Jay shits on them harder by supporting southern rap artists. Hip Hop will be better off once rappers stop hanging off of his nutsack
 
I want to see what kind of numbers he is going to do. Is he going to have Beyonce on it. If he does he will get a few hundred thousand in sales on that alone.

Def Jam will automitically make it platinum by buying 1 million copies themselves. This music shit is dirty politics.
 
jay-z has only sold 30 million records?


30 million albums.....there is a difference between albums and records..

10 albums,,,3 millions sold is an average of triple platinum for career.


doesn't count singles,mixtapes,collabo's

Going back over this thread I see cats talking about niggas from the east not selling etc...it just shows how fucked up the game is. Jay wasn't selling millions out the gate. He was 3 in before he broke through. He had a couple of known singles, but he wasn't a major player nationally. Them cats need the same chance to grow & get better without the pressure or expectations of sales. East, South, West, Mid-West, where ever.
