Jen

[FabreFresh]

Videos, bout time.

[cortesnyc]

good topic. cant wait to hear someone who's into gold,, or "jewelry" (especially a male) really explain why.. i never understood dude's who accessorize. And it's always more entertaining to hear someone explain weird fetishes for themselves.

[PinotNoir1975]

I still love you

[TABULOUS1]

lmAo @ "downpayment on attention/insecurity...just BEGGING 2b mocked"

[UnderDaGroundAndMore]

It's A Bad Investment Anyway/how. Diamond Price Is Based On Nothing Absolutly Nothing. It Worth Nothing It's A Rock That Shine And One Day A Man Came And Said Well I Can Get Some People In The African Continent Dig For Free (Let's Face It... It Is) And Sell It To Them Stupid Rapper And Also Create That Myth That You Need One When You Marry Someone Or You And Shit. And There You Have It! 99% Of The Wealth In The Hand Of A Few... Yeah... 1% And Jewlery Is One Of It.

[eirefrance]

I love, on your website, the detail with which you broke down the correctness of your argument about gold jewelry. If I were into saying things like that, i'd say you pwned, but I'm not, so I won't. By the way, you told me a year ago you were gonna do a video about All About the Beat. Where is it? I wanna hear someone intelligent and eloquent defend hip-hop to McWhorter. I haven't heard anyone I'd expect, like KRS or Chuck D, challenge him.

[illdoc1]

funny i just saw John McWhorter in my local barnes & noble, he was sitting next to me at a reading by William Julius Wilson.. he left before i had a chance to talk to him tho (not that i'm sure i would have)

[eirefrance]

I actually enjoy his linguistics books, so I might have mentioned that. Now, William Julius Wilson and John McWhorter, there's a video. I'd watch, favorite, rate, share, mirror and triple comment on that.

[illdoc1]

yes I feel the same, and what i'd really like is to talk with him about prescriptice vs. descriptive linguistics, especially as they relate to people's judgments of hip-hop slang and usage of words like "conversate" that are dismissed as "not real words" though they are no less functional than any other word..

[illdoc1]

"prescriptive," obvs

[Pazas]

@illdoc1 There's so much here that I'd love to talk about but don't have the time or space to respond too, so I'd just like to add that outside of Hip-Hop, this is what bothers me about internet grammar Nazis.

[rockitawkwardly]

can the next video be about your cat?

[challiray]

ill, you sound old bruh. grow down a bit.

[jefgain]

Gold is high, not a good time to buy I don't think. I thought the saying went buy low sell high!! So it should be a good time to sell gold, no?

[shinenigan]

you rawk jay

keep up the artist's way! :o

[herBeautifulMassage]

I love your clarity. Your attention to detail makes me all... I don't know... moist for more. Can hardly wait for tomorrow. ticktockticktock

[RWAcp]

after detox? i honestly hope it will be soon then =D

[jatoha]

"down payment on attention" wow, I will use this phrase forever. the cause of the financial collapse is everyone making a down payment on attention.

[GAMEMENTOR]

I will use this as well...DAMN!

[bruceleroy1973]

Love your videos man. Truth is truth no matter the time of day its delivered. :

[nokgensoc]

you're so cute!

[Sugababy9891]

lol a down payment for attention! i love you!

[Victim293]

Nice one :D.. Fuck chains

[hnek]

I'm in heaven with these daily videos from you...really. Can't wait to hear more about gold chains. or Gold Chains, that kid from SF.Or how you're not sleeping, or how much you love your cat.

[privaj2001]

persevere. morning page stuff is excellent - with or w/o sleep

[lumbia33]

bullions!!! bullions!!!

once again, nice video...

[greensquall]

lol detox, id still like to see the video you're promising to make, im sure it would be good.

[UsedToy01]

I've watched everyone of these videos.

And im still entertained :)

[laughingfool624]

lol. money compensates for penis size. he brings common sense to the forefront, something i seem to be lacking.

[jake3614]

this makes sense and Im agreed w/ the fact that gold chains r Mr. T bound...

IT is a very overcompensated act and means nothing to the public at large. I mean i live n a midwest city and to have a rope or ice means nothing...

Honestly, it makes u a poser anymore.......... What use to be an alt-rock grunge punk saying can transgress to another genre.

DESERVEDLY SO!

hip hop needs to get original again and not "lil wayne/ lil john"

hip hop / rap needs more kanyes/ lupes/nas..... sick of idiot rap.

[idontfart]

I'm waiting on that counter episode. You always come through, don't doubt yourself!

[SoxAsh0810]

Great! Fuckin' agree! Later.

[sisforshayla]

totally agree mr. smooth :)

[HitMeUpOnMyCellPhone]

awsum

[joey2344]

Great job Jay, I've been glued day after day checking out for your vids....

You should talk about Baracks first 100 days...what is missing? Is he being fairly untreated by the right? should he forget bipartisanship?

[jodinand]

these daily videos are my daily bread AND butter.

much respect, sir!

[SquallCloud]

I'm loving this every day thing. Went from famine to abundance! :D

[jmartecep]

Great vid Illdoc!

[ayamejoy]

lol, down payment on attenttion, love it

[Steadno]

ya heard!

[mdossantos047]

I'm going to take your word on this...when Detox comes out in 27 years, I'm going to be looking for the sequel. lol

[jwwetzel]

you have a brilliant attitude and a balanced perspective, and I dig it.

[Speakeeezzy]

I just put you on my RSS. I check you frequently enough that I didn't need to do it... so you better keep posting everyday or I will be sad : (

No pressure!

[quitejaded]

Can't wait for the sequel. Anyway, this video reminds me of SouljaBoy because he is 16 years old and he is absolutely BAWLIN THRILLED about all this money he just got. He is so thrilled that he sleeps with the money in all of his music videos and cries out its name in each song "Get monnneeeyyy"

[SeeSwann]

I can't believe you even responded to the commenters who made such a rediculous argument in support of buying gold chains. But I'm glad you are making a video a day. It gives me something to look forward to.

[Kiddmizfit]

"Why would you buy it in the form of an inate bejeweled monstrosity begging to be mocked and or stolen?"

That is the point I try to get across to my younger siblings every single day. Why spend money trying to look like you have money, when you can keep that money in your pocket and ACTUALLY HAVE MONEY. In response to SeeSwan responding to Ill for responding to us, I do NOT support the buying of gold chains and jewelry of any sort, I never even mentioned the chain, my original post was:

[Kiddmizfit]

"If you have the money, keywords "if you have the money" you SHOULD invest in gold, especially with our currency currently on the foreground of a question mark. However if you have bills to pay, children/yourself to send to school and a neighborhood you feel you need to get out of, a gold chain may not be the wisest investment you make."

[Kiddmizfit]

IE. Gold isn't bad so don't denounce gold all together, just know what type of gold you should be investing your money into should you choose to invest. But looking back I see that we've responded to eachothers opinion without realizing that we're actually on the same page so it would be pointless to argue, as I'd be arguing against my own opinion of the gold chain. Either way much respect for responding Ill, I've been a fan of yours for a few months now. I may even get a cam of my own for vlogs

[Backatwon]

If they investing they need to look at gold bars ......LOL .....you right straight and to the point ...they rocking the chains to impress ....stay blessed

[littledsoundlab]
