I think people need to take a chill pill...Hov was and is still GOAT. When he passes, then conversation can start with Kanye, Eminem, etc. Hov's a living legend.
You can hate on Kanye all you want. Dude, is self made from the ground up! Beats and producing got his foot in door. Do Work, Get Paid. Ego, only comes from praise of the crowd and the sense ability of the artist himself! that's right i said it
@maxmontreality it is invented by kanye, i dare you to look where people have used that saying. In the line precedin the flowers one. He says if you admire someone, you should go ahead tell 'em. Then he uses the metaphor people never get the flowers while they can still smell em. Its basically meaning you miss the opportunity to appreciate it while you can.
@shegwin haha i know what it means. cl smooth uses pretty much the same line on a track called 'appreciate" from an album dropped in 05. phrases like "give people roses whilst they can still smell them" and "stop and smell the roses" have been around for time and all generally mean the same thing. which is to stop and appreciate life and people as its happening, in the moment. not when its too late.
actually @joshjimmerson it was Dame Dash that gave Kanye the chance. Jay-Z wasn't feeling Kanye until he started to attract attention. Dame took the chance and signed Jay-z.
@Word2ThaFive Wooow you right about the Kanye part, Im not sure other than the fact that he idolizes Jay why he makes it seem like he's the reason Kanye got on but as far as signing Jay... Nah they came into it together as partners. Jay-Z being the money and talent Dash knowing business
@qstayhigh He's not kissin Jay's Ass. Its because of Jay That Kanye is big right now. If it weren't For Jay-Z, Kanye would still be sitting in his mom's sofa making unheard music. He's thanking Jay-Z in this song.
@Jihadamari1992 BITCH1 IM CRAZY! DONT SHIT LIKE DAT 2 ME! U DONT KNO Y I HATE KIM SO STAY THE HELL OUT OF IT OR GET YO ASS KICKED IN! JUST DONT WORRY 'BOUT ME CUZ IT AINT GOT SHIT 2 DO WIT YO PUNK ASS! GET OFF MY CASE!
this song is about a time after ye did a song with cold play and then after j did one ye told a mutual friend who told jay z and then jay and kanyes relationship was strained but ye only said it as a compliment
this is one of the weakest songs Kanye has ever done very corny IMO. I love Jay-Z but he didn't want him on rocafella when really Dame Dash had faith in Kanye. eventually Jay knew Ye had something with Jesus Walks and jumped on the kanye bandwagon its all about money at the end of the day.
one of my favorite kanye songs, not many people make songs to show respect to the ones that help them got there. anybody who knows someone whos made an impact in their life will feel this.
I love this fuckin song, This why I like Kanye, cuz he can do a swaggin track, then hit you in the head with some real shit. This is what hip hop is about feeling
ok i get! jay z is the best the legend....stop commenting on how he is better than jay z! we all don't need to hear it 20 times! sry if this pisses someone off
yea in a way i guess but lil wayne leaves the ego in the studio and doesnt pull all these stunts like kanye. I like how wayne puts out both mixtapes to satisfy ppl who like more underground rap as opposed to commercial rap and he puts out commercial rap. kanye deosnt do that!
Why the fuck are you all comparing Jay-Z and Kanye West!?! People get me fucking mad when I see this shit... Jay-Z was Kanye's menotr... His Big Brother... Stop comparing them... They are both incredible... You all have your favorite rappers so why go to your favorite rapper's videos and instigate? Doens't make sense I'm sure that not 1 person here would want someone turning family on them... Now stop with the comparing...
@NeverMakeVideos I feel ya bruh.. I like em both dey in my top 5.. Jay, Lupe Fiasco, Nas, Eminem, Kanye in no particular order for all those that will hop on here n hate on who name comin first haha
@AliciaGirl20 kanye west is more versatile, he can sing as well as rap but jay-z is a legend, his overall rapping style is better but I liek kanye's voice more. kanyes the future. jay-z is the best, eminem 2nd
Then he helped me get my momma a cribbb
