Jay-Z -Lost Ones

[Sebastian42ify]

Colleek R.I.P

[TheHappybunny671]

no he is rapping about beyonce he clearly states B,be, etc several times which is the short term that he calls beyonce but all of the verses were emotional

[swizman]

its supposed to be too much sam rothstein...as in the gangster de niro plays in casino. you really suck at making lyrics videos

[Vanbrusa]

Its "Story of a Champion, Sorry I'm a Champion"

[razorfist10]

This beat is sooo damn nice. Goddamn...

[OMGaNINJA94]

I hate how he pronounced 'Mature' :/



[dadukiesonfirebaby]

@scissorhandsThegeniu jay z is top 5 but number 1? gotta be biggie, he changed the game forever

[razorfist10]

Whats the beat? Damnnn

[MrPloxDa3rd]

damn, I remember hearing this on the radio back in december 2006

ever since i've been trying to look for this but thanks to youtube i found it finally

thanks for uploading

[TheIllegalSdZoo]

Hey, we dont ride the beat like Jay but we give it a straight forward blind freestyle shot. Some classic cartoons to rock with it. Check out the SD ZOO freestyle.

[oNeWant2]

"Can't run from the pain, go towards it." That's genius.

[FRESHCOOLAIDE]

When you loose one.. in time you will gain one. And you will feel better about your loss.

[TheLouwryder]

R.I.P. BIG L and BIGGIE jay z was nothin before them

[daggakid90]

@TheLouwryder

now look where he's at

[TheLouwryder]

@daggakid90 when all the real is gone the fake will rise

[MrCommenterguy]

@TheLouwryder LMAO! You came on a Jay Z track to hate on him? You must've not listened to the song, he's definitely not 'fake', this was as real as it gets.

He was about to sign Big L, so Big L didn't affect Jay Z at all, even if you believe L was better or not. Biggie? An argument could be made that Jigga wouldn't be as big if Biggie was alive, but nevertheless Jay came up himself, little to no help from Big, more from the likes of Big Daddy Kane and Jaz O, who he used to tour with.

[LilBVEVO]

Jay's realest song

[BigTCDD]

cool song yo

[takeaction183]

Damn, haven't listened to this song in a while. Definitely struck a chord with me.

[kidALDRICH]

What's up with this shit my nigga Jay? I search Lost Ones and J - Cole...

Mannnnn. I like J - Cole.... But compared to Jay... Keep it real which one should pop up first. hahah Just saying..

[GoLarkOnUrGoKart]

@kidALDRICH haha coincidentally didnt Jay Z discover J. Cole ?

[kidALDRICH]

@GoLarkOnUrGoKart Fucks yeah you right about that! hahahahah " THAT SHIT CRAZY "

1

[ceejay1992]

@GoLarkOnUrGoKart Discover? No. He made him famous and gave him the connections, yes.

[TheDelmar1978]

JUST A REAL SONG

[sofuckinndope]

This has always been one of my favorite songs, however that has nothing to do with this mixtape that nobody knows about. Its called StoryLine produced by Jeremy Bartley. Here is the link if anyone is interested:

youtube dot com slash watch?v=rNhzwHgOKvA

[CarpeDiemTomorrow]

The beat's too real

[303ajr303]

Dre on the beat!!

[MrOmeMan]

That second verse he spat was real as fuck... I've been in his position there... but was less understanding at the time. lol

[OMGaNINJA94]

Can anyone tell me where that beat originated from? Please?! I swear I heard it somewhere else I just can't remember.

[djhero0071]

this song is one that chokes me up around the end.I feel his pain without experiencing it.This song is that good.now,all that's needed is for him to make music like this these days

[LuckyLefty92]

The second verse is about Rosario Dawson...not Beyonce. Just to let u know

[thomashester2]

@LuckyLefty92 that's what I thought but in decoded he said it was about Bey

[marilynjeaux]

@thomashester2 I think it would cause too much dram to say it was about anyone but his wife. So even if it weren;t about Bey, I don't think we'd know.

[marilynjeaux]

@marilynjeaux drama*

[PeanutButterSkillet]

Dr. Dre on the beat

[49thoughts]

SHUT THE FACK UP AND ENJOY THIS ISHH

[SillyYoungThingg]

the second verse is about rosario dawson, he never lost beyonce......

[solidTONER]

tai bo hoe

[GaynGorgeousTv]

this isnt marsha this is chrisette michelle singing the hook

[Smileyfacedkiller]

I don't even like jay-z, but I can't deny his talent. He's arguably better than anyone's favorite rapper.

[RexORackZ]

one of jay z's best song ever nuff said.

[assman3467]

so simple

[sofuckinndope]

21 people disliked this video because they never learned to read & couldn't read the lyrics.

[imtheFreshest]

@ScissorhandsTheGeniu

I feel you. How I couldn't?

But Jay is def not from the slum. Hes from a (ex-) real rough neighbourhood and a poor family and hadn't an easy life....

You know what the "slums" are...

(you would think, they do somthing against the soical disparities, because they were in it too and there people still are. Do they? Hahaha... Megastars they are, an exorbitant lifestyle is all they want. : D. Stop rapping bout the street, things aint gonna change anyways! fools.)

[imtheFreshest]

FUCK VEVO.

I dont even click a single vid on this companys channel since 2 years or smth... 1. Its cencored that sucks. 2. THEY WANNA OWN AND CONTROL the shit. NO PRIVAT-CHANNELS, NO MUSIC FOR EVERYONE. THEY are in control... More and more and more... Cause people are STUPID AND BLIND.

Dont support the vevo gangsters. Support the people.

[FerretPercussion]

@imtheFreshest Occupy youtube! or just...pirate shit online...

[AntionneJ]

That's how you get at nigga's! HA. HA.

[3atRic3]

Back then I thought the chick was saying "Story of a Champion" o.O lmao

[tech009nasoldier]

@3atRic3 i know i was just thinkin that

[Dalton856Cedarville]

@3atRic3 what IS she saying?? (i thought it was story of a champ lol)

[3atRic3]

@Dalton856Cedarville "sorry I'm a champion"

[AlexJKirby]

*Sam Rothstein*

[yungmizzel]

Dr Dre hooked Jay up on the production, what he do like 5 tracks on this album?

[jacorytheshow]

still theres pain! saying they made(ahhhhh) lost one!

[Alexzanzininja]

love the song but reading the lyrics and them being so fucked up it pisses me off can't lie this nigga got too many errors

[X3JO3YX3]

I Dont even like Jay-Z but this song hella tight!!!

[chuckieboy1988]

this song is is hard as fuck

[nolaa64]

This some real shi%%!

[vidaa82]

i broke up wit my ex to this song. she lost a GREAT ONE.

[Deuce2486]

21 people didnt lose nothing

[1234deez]

this shit will forever be the illest...bass line sounds tight with the alpines

[caprils]

this does not sound like a dr.dre beat, I never heard him use piano keys or those drum snares but it's a nice smooth beat, soothing

[MrCommenterguy]

His third verse gets me every single time.

[Lennietaylor25]

"This not a diss song its a REAL SONG"

[XBabyGirlSwaggX]

Why are yall comparing East Coast and West Coast its 2011 yall arguing about shit that happened 16 years ago LMAO..Like grow up! I always been fond of New York but I never say its better than Cali I love both!! =D

[ScissorhandsTheGeniu]

Jay is simply the truth !! .. No need to hate the brother , he rose from the slums and became a mega star and multi millionaire . Let GOD be the judge of all the negativity and stereotypes that's associated w/him . Greatest Ever , hands down !

[mojoswoptopz]

@ScissorhandsTheGeniu Yeah, like we don't work to produce profit! To work without profit is robotic!

[crystalkristinax]

this song is amazing, no matter how old it is.

[THASANDMANTRIPLE6]

oh my god im feeling this ssssssooooooo much. god i love this song so much. fuck!!!

[imtheFreshest]

[goalieboy1000]

[MultiNelly97]

This Is Real .

[prettyboymentality]

DAMN THAT VERSE BOUT B WAS ABOUT AS REAL AS IT GETS

[0trumptight0]

story of a champion, sorry im a champion. Im pretty sure that's how it goes.

[jacorytheshow]

[Mr77me77]

Whats the point of always comparing rappers ! ppl have different opinions. like me lil wayne is my fav rapper n will always be bt im not gone diss jay-z jus cuz i like weezy . jay-z is one of the best rappers eva he is in the top 5 .

[Boom0808]

[pimphstrong1]

[cgurney19]

[illuminatiCannibal]

[datkid12354]

@MrAmazing922 stfu west side rappers suk dick now

[SmooveTheKing]

@MrAmazing922 So You Basically Just Said, That Jay-Z & New York Niggas, Are Crying About Meaningful Things & Life. While "WEST SIHIIIIDE" Rappers Are Ignorant and Stuck On the Superficial. Thank You, I'm Glad Someone Has Insight :-D

NOTE: Sarcasm Intended

[thatbeastthere]

@MrAmazing922 fuck you bitch ass nigga fuck the west side new york all day

[geegeedoc]

@MrAmazing922 lol. its funny cuz your defeating the entire purpose of this song, and not in an affective way. lmao.

[griffinboy5]

@MrAmazing922 Hahahahaha. Nas, Biggie, Jay Z, Big L, Rakim, Wu-Tang Clan, KRS-One, AZ, A Tribe Called Quest, and Big Pun > Tupac, Dre, Eazy, Game, Cube, and Snoop.

East Coast > West Coast

[JackUhh17]

@griffinboy5 We're in 2011, no one compares the East Coast with the West Coast anymore. Come on now son.

[SouljaCOD]

BEAUTIFUL SONG !! Dubstyle soundtracks ;)

[jorgefonsie]

And niggas still ask how he got Beyonce..

[mitchellfrank1]

sorry im a champion !

[Xhaterlover]

the second verse is probably why beyonce married jay z. Its hard finding someone who is simultaneously your equal and understanding/respectful of the stage life that you're in and is willing to give you space you need. There is so much respect & love in that verse. Beyonce chose a great one & Jay z chose the best.

[XTheXRizzaX]

This song is handsome.

[nyieshasho]

BTW to whoever made this video- the woman signign is NOT MARSHA AMBROUSIS, it's CHRISETTE MICHELE smfh

[JeanIDIOMATIC]

Jay Z And Dr Dre Best Of Both Sides..

Jay z Greatest Rapper Infinity

Dr Dre Greatest Producer Infinity...

Love 3x2< Feel Me

[vaziable]

I think the end, about the nephew Colleek, is real, right?

[thomashester2]

@vaziable yea it is

[bravestar26]

Sam ROTHSTEIN doggy

[nawalwatani]

gr8 vid, thanks for the lyrics.. but Jay says "Story of a champion, Sorry I'm a champion.".. peace

[SwisherGang7Gang]

story of a champion sorry Im a champion (you lost one) #HOV

[MaaDMiKeE]

i'm worried about if i'm gonna have a meal on the table, if i'm gonna live tomorrow, important shit, see, Illuminati is brainwashing dumb fucks like you, making you argue about who is in the illuminati or not, and not worrying about important shit. Wake up you idiots.

[albing]

The 2nd verse about Beyonce is ridiculous. I can understand that shit. Deepest shit he's ever said.

[alwaysanecesity]

absolutely perfect

[BGPsht]

YOUR LYRICS FUCKING SUCK..

[SportsGuy2194]

@BGPsht You are a moron.

[iamjusttooocool]

not realy a jay z fan, but this song is sweet!

[faifaalelei]

hes not talking about beyonce....hes talking about FREE, she use to host a show on BET

[sandburial123]

my favorite part is when chrissette michelle come is and says "ya lost one"

[thebenanddana]

every time it goes from we, 2 me & her in life i go back to this song & everytime this song means something diffrent

[larsy1313]

Check Out

Eli G - Lonely Road

[poloreed12]

Only Song I Listen To By Jay Z... Its Too Real !

[BADINCORPORATED]

I love when he throws lines in about Beyonce, they go hard for each other in their songs (on the low though) #nice

[XxRednBlackxX]

@BADINCORPORATED Beyonce wasnt in that song... it was supposed to be "so we aint we, its me and her" not "so B aint we"

[jarlile32]

dre killed this beat 

[asr10ish]

too much flossing, too much sam ROTHSTEIN, duh. casino reference.

[boldcrazyman]

dope ass beat

[809carlito]

yeoo this is one of the realest track dead serious HOV will forever be #1 over weezy wack ass

[DaShotcaller316]

His verse about Beyonce is f'n hard man...that crap can make a grown man cry.

[sm19mi]

@DaShotcaller316 what are you talking about?

[afoolisharrangement]

@DaShotcaller316 The Beyonce verse??? You must love Perez Hilton or something, and all that celebrity shit, that verse pales in comparison to the one about his nephew that died, the part about waiting for the baby to be born, NOW THAT can make a grown man cry.

[lslinger]

@afoolisharrangement Yo gayy nikka.

[DoctorGleich]

@afoolisharrangement I see what you mean man.

[maddi1127]

@afoolisharrangement agreed i cried

[ceejay1992]

@afoolisharrangement Besides, there is no verse about Beyonce... he's rapping about Rosario Dawson, this was before he was with Beyonce.

[keariV]

@ceejay1992 i jus had to make sure yur joking or being sarcastic, right? bey and jay hav been together since '02. this song came out like almost 5 yrs after they began dating...and he clearly says, "i dont think it's meant to be, BE" he didn't repeat "be" for the sake of the song, lol, he was referring to BEyonce...im almost positive yu were bein sarcastic, though, so yu can disregard this, i hope lol...

[GameTime90220]

@afoolisharrangement Jay Z's rapping about Rosario Dawson, not Beyonce. But yeah that nephew verse was really heavy.

[24rickdizzle]

I think its Khalik...your a champion

[YungDoce]

YA'LL NEED TA SHUT DA FUC UP ABOUT "ILLUMINATI"

ILLUMINATE DEEZ NUTS...

TIRED OF HEARIN DIS SHIT!

P.S..... TIGHT SONG..... 1000*

[daggakid90]

thats not marsha ambrosius its chrissette michelle

[REALLIFEENT1]

CHECK OUT DA PG!!!,COMMENT,RATE NEW SONG PLZ!,,2 WIZ KHALIFA '#BEST IN N.C!!!!!!!!!!

[MercaStaphInfection]

where is the evidence anywhere that jay-z sacrificed his nephew for the illuminati...because i don't see it so stop talking shit you know nothing about. what if your nephew or loved one died and some people you'll never meet are on the internet talking shit saying you sacrificed him when they don't know you or anything about your relationship with them. the majority of people talking about illuminati dont know a thing about it. ever think that the conspiracy itself is a conspiracy to trick ppl?

[Tillylid1]

This is Jay at his best

[ROKINROD23]

they needa give j.cole this instrumental

[TowardsMyFutureSelf]

@ROKINROD23 lol wtf would be the point?

[funfun4you]

loved this song since the day it came out



[colemartin100]

no, i dont wanna buy gold or lego harry potter characters. i clicked on jay z...not a dumbass ad. geesh.

[MrBignate323]

song dope as hell love THIS jigga not the one we got on watch the throne it jst sounded like he didnt have it anymore

[Illuminati3000Guru]

Hope u Sheeple kno that this song is about him sacrificing his nephew to Illuminati. Do ur research ppl.

KILLUMINATI!!!

[chb21fly]

@Illuminati3000Guru not excatly

[Illuminati3000Guru]

@chb21fly I kno thats not all he talkn about. But that is the main idea.

"lose some to win some"?

Thats all the proof i need.

Check out my channel

[chb21fly]

@Illuminati3000Guru if thats all the proof you need then u obviously dont have much evidence to support your theory

[7mvproy]

They told hov to dumb down his lyrics listen to moment of clarity

[RashidTAhmed]

correction - "too much flossing, too much sam rothstein" referring to Robert DeNiro's character in Casino..Sam 'Ace' Rothstein.

[54Independent]

jay sacrificed his nephew "so under thebelief its partly my fault"

[MALICE0900]

@54Independent not really *raised eyebrow*

[DwizzBeats]

20 people are lost ones

[page305]

I heard motherfuckrs saying they made Hov..Made Hov say, "Ok so, make another Hov" till this day, this is still the realest line i eeeeever heard

[xHiphopsavedmylifex]

the silence and black screen at the end is there for you to handle and comprehend the real shit you just endured.

[FoeOneAllDay]

I came from the future, year 4200 to be exact, just to let ya'll know, im still jammin to Jay!

[maxypooh15]

@FoeOneAllDay hey fuck you



[hmm6142]

the correct lyrics are

story of a champion,

sorry im a champion

...jsut so u know. Either way I think the song is much more meaningfull that way

[lbj4315]

Jemeul Jones. RIP

[magicmike454]

i love this song

[Melucci8]

The singer is not Marsha, it's Chrisette Michelle.

[SINGitACAPELLA]

Its Sam Rothstien.... Robert DeNiro played him in Casino :P

[mbagonzalezjunior]

666

[yungngmb1]

the old jay z still be bumpin

[TheCoyote109]

"I heard motherfuckers saying they made Hov. Made Hov say, "Ok so, make another Hov" cant be done man

[gottago]

@TheCoyote109 that line was a dame dash diss right there.

[LyricallySanee]

I think this song is real beautiful...

[makinmusic09]

I feel so slow, i've been listening to this song for awhile now and I think i finally understand what he's talking about. Because of fame, he lost himself, because of work he lost his girl and because of his actions, he feels that it's his fault that his nephew died. Is that pretty much it?
