@brentcarlos1 yeah. sell out means you start to do something to get paid, rather then because you love to do it. for example, jay z dumbed down his lyrics and slowed his flow because he made more money that way, making songs like empire state of mind.
@colenbrak he raps about what he knows now and what he knows isnt gangsta shit anymore.. his shit is different i wouldnt say its dumbed down.. its the style of hip hop currently.. nobody raps fast with a bounce like this anymore
@EazyTarantino are we listening to the same song? hes rapping about how talented he is as a rapper. just because something is the style that is popular doesnt mean its the best style. soulja boy ringtone rap is popular, and is arguably the current style of rap...
@colenbrak this is one song.. and even in it he references gangsta shit.. to say now he raps like soulja boy is ridiculous though.. theres a difference between popular style and the style of hip hop.. like i said before.. nobody raps fast with a bounce like this.. theres a lot less funk and jazz influence in the beats and the rappers
@colenbrak your ignorance is comical to me..it's not that jay-z sold out bc lets be honest, rapping about the streets and drug dealing is hard when you have 50+ million in your bank account..he doesnt live the life he used to so why lie to your fans in your lyrics..bitch
@oconnor401 he sold out, stop trying to justify it to yourself. if you would listen to the lyrics, maybe, before jumping to his defense, you would realize that he never talks about the streets and drug dealing in the song.

@EazyTarantino I see you backed down to the rap battle. I guess that's a victory for the D-Man.

@colenbrak Jay Z is owned by the people 2pac was warning us about, I guess if he wasn't they'd have him killed off like they did 2pac.

@colenbrak it can be as bad as what Eminem is doin man

@jcold007 the difference is, eminem had real passion at one point, but jay z has always waited for his first opportunity to sell out.
