[shervin6758]

[spider112006]

there is no better rapper than this man, neither has there been or will there be. Unreal.

[HEYPRETTYGIRLLL]

FuTuRe sayz NY CITy, BABy !

( Diamondz the Girlz best Friend .. hehe .. )

[ME0NP00J]

[otanimullicrank]

[lzrdkng82]

[derberg19486]

[AFCA09100]

[rbadm69]

@Kasselnordstadtpower your mum suck

[Kasselnordstadtpower]

[sugepoola]

he was ok untill he started auto tuning

[thegreeniydbandit]

Its just easier to say " you are an idiot" .

[forcesnfitteds]

well like to invite u to our family (rocafella) *got cha* jewelry i mean (his nuts??!) *no sense* n the last part bout beyonce i got cha on.

if wat u said is true then he said hell invite u to his nuts cuz his nuts are guarded by beyonce..........

[RRFC3]

shut it u dick!

[forcesnfitteds]

"well like to invite u to our family.. jewelry i mean.. cuz my jewels currently are bein guarded by the queen" makes no sense.

[ebunny5]

i think he is referring to the saying "family jewels"...which usually means a mans penis...so when he says "well like to invite u to our family.. jewelry i mean.. " what he is really saying is "we wanna invite you to come f*** with us" but he doesnt wanna say it directly so he says "jewelery i mean" instead...lol

[emmjayy619]

yes it does..

invite u to our family [jewels] .. jewelry i mean.. cuz my jewels [family jewels aka balls] are bein guarded by the queen [beyonce]

[foshizle09]

@forcesnfitteds its jury

[Critchy39]

The fact of the matter is, Jay Z is the mack daddy of Rap. But Eminem is much more popular and a better lyricist.

Although Jay Z has better skills with regards to thinking up songs in his head, Eminem is mouch more powerful and gets in peoples head with his rap.

And no doubt Em kills Jay on Renegade, and deep down Eminem would of loved that considering Jay Z is one of his idols.

[forcesnfitteds]

i donno if its juz me.. but the whole second part makes no sense.

[DevilSilver33]

(part 2)

/ Woah Nelly, I'm so Makaveli/ Bring two packs (Tupac) of condoms when you come to the telly/ Please tell me if this is true/ If diamonds are a girl's best friend my crew/ Would like to send an invitation to you/ We'd like to invite you to our family/ Jewelry, I mean, 'cause my jewels are currently being guarded by the queen

[DevilSilver33]

London bridges are fallin' down/ Not bridges but breeches when Jigga's in town/ Ladies show me your nickers/ I might let you kick it if you don't tell the mrs./ Quick, run 'fore the tabloids come/ Run from the night so we'll end up in the sun/ I'm just takin' a piss... Unless you're gonna do it

[exposedtruth]

(cont'd from below)

??? I'm so Makaveli/ Bring 2pacs (two packs) of condoms when you come to the tellie/ ???/ If diamonds are a girl's best friend my crew/ would like to extend an invitation to you/ We'd like to invite you to our family.../ Jewelry I mean/ Cuz my jewels currently is being guarded by the Queen.

[exposedtruth]

[REVISED]

??? I'm so Makaveli/ Bring 2pacs (two packs) of condoms when you come to the tellie/ Tell me if this is true/ If diamonds are a girl's best friend my crew/ would like to extend an invitation to you/ We'd like to invite you to our family.../ Jewelry I mean/ Cuz my jewels currently is being guarded by the Queen.

[exposedtruth]

London bridges are fallin' down/ Not bridges but britches when Jigga's in town/ Ladies show me ya nxggas/ I'll let you come kick it if you don't tell the missus/ Quick run 'fore the tabloids come/ Run from the night or we'll end up in the sun/ I'm just takin' a piss../ Unless you gon' do it/

[DevilSilver33]

you made a few mistakes

it's breeches (pants), nickers (or however you spell it) refers to boobs and it's if you don't tell the mrs. (his wife)

[exposedtruth]

Ah. But I had the 'missus' part right. It's spelt that way, 'Mrs.' is the abbreviated version.

:D

And I knew what breeches were, I just misspelt it.

[mikeandhisflash]

misses, asshole

[mikeandhisflash]

knickers refers to underwear, faggot

[DevilSilver33]

underwear for boys... Doesn't make sense if girls wear it, does it?

[mikeandhisflash]

where did you get the absurd idea knickers only refers to underwear for men?

[boabby87]

Knickers are pants,not boobs.

[noworldorder28]

[bleachvsnaruto24]

[cecilpjhrrs]

Ay Yall.... Jay was interviewed and he said that if he was to form a super-crew the TWO ppl he wuld put in there was Andre 3000 and Eminem... Jay is of course better but yhu cant help but put Em in that category...

[cruzazul117]

Yeah, what the hell. Eminem is better?!?! Jay-Z is a living LEGEND. And anyone who says otherwise just check it: he's with Beyonce. Yeah, he just laughs and goes home to THAT every night.

[dlee4mvp]

[milner012]

[guido1505]

[tolbo77]

[IRepSon]

Im not even doubting you know any less than me about TRUE hip hop.

Im not on the dancing and shit either, I was just tryna clear up that wack thing you said before about "atm", but ok.

[i3kel]

the lyrics in this song are crazy

[IRepSon]

chrque, Aight little bitch boy, why the fuck would it mean "ass to mouth lupe is my fav rapper?"

Was that supposed to be some sort of "joke", cause it clearly didn't makse sence you fucking queer.

lol son you're the "hella homo" kid, for even sitting there, watching this vid, then thinking aight how can i make "at the moment" aka atm sound homo.

Kids these days, telling you..

[chrque]

got it twisted fam. its all jokes.

i may be a kid but i can guarantee i know as much about TRUE hip hop as you. not this new age BS about dancing nd shit.

[wilderalt]

This man is a trend setter we all respect Nas as the best lyricist, but Jay Zee! is by far the greatest rapper alive. wonderful marketting

[mariahfirst1]

I love the voice of Jay!

[mikerosas31]

killed it!

[HaplyDreams]

Hova is the greatest! I love this remix.

[DK4LiFEEx3303]

[khool77]

[IRepSon]

Yeaa I heard about Lupe retiring after lupEND. But then again Jay-Z's said he's gonna retire mad times, and he's still going strong. I hope he don't retire :{ Cause atm Lupe's my fav rapper.

[chrque]

"cause atm lupe's my fav rapper"

ass to mouth lupe is your favorite rapper?

hella homo

[shegwin]

at the moment dumb fuck

[outrageousmusic]

STRONG LYRICS!

[IRepSon]

Hell yeah Hov still the best.

I think Lupe's gonna shine mad in the future. He don't get enough credit for his lyrics which are pure fire. Hopefully he will.

[billy2690]

lupe is lyrically very strong but hes said he is retiring after his third album! shocking!

[alfredo162st]

Can Wayne do that?

[foreshadowe]

when he says family he probally means the roc especially after he looks at his penis then he says he means jewlery which is being guarded by the queen, also probally meaning beyonce since hes the king. so that just mean bs guarding them jewls, keeping them on lockdown from golddiggers, get it

[angelo1405]

"family jewels"

[adamcrumpet13]

he means to say, "we'd like to invite you to my family jewels" (looks at his penis) he then says "Jewelry i mean cos ma jewels currently is being guarded by the queen" get it...

[sashikwa]

[k66798]

[Lukorz]

Crazy wordplay here.

[JimFlows]

"not bridges, but britches, when jigga's in town"

brilliant.

i'm loving this verse.

not loving the jigga haters though. kanye and wayne are better? theyre okay, theyre pop music.

you don't think he has the "write" to tour in the u.k? i revoke your right to give your opinion.

[fireking345]

Jigga man is the best rapper alive above there with Biggie and Pac....and even kanye agree he aint the same status as jigga...cuz Jay Z is kanye's mentor kinda a big brother lil brother relationship

[joebws08]

high price 52 u a straigt fool son!!

jay = da king!! this freestyle is awesome!!

he did it live in manchester i been lookin for it ever since!!

if lupe wrote jay z stuff then why ant he got better songs than jigga?? shoutout to johny122 u know what ur talkin out dude peace!

[Johnny1222]

wow ur dumb u actually said Jay-z has not sold enough? Lol how didnt he sell enough all but one album went platinum. Jay-z is da best kanye and weezy are up there but they cant take Hov's throne yet

[Sicckmaster]

Thank you Johnny, joeb, and the rest of ya'll. Hov is still the best, can't nobody take his thrown... yet, at least.

[Perryg]

can anyone help me out with the last line? i'm not sure what it means. Like i kinda get it but not really, sorry if i'm being retarded lol

the part with the (pause) jewelry..

[k66798]

pretty sure he means him n his crew want sex from girls. "we'd like to invite you to our family (jewels=dicks) .. jewelry i mean" make any sense??

[mdub99]

Jewelry is being guarded by the queen....Jewelery=balls(Family­ jewels), are being guarded by Beyonce

[adamcrumpet13]

taking the piss - im just kidding

[149sown]

Look how Jay is diddy bopping at 37 secs

[myb5013]

Actually it means I am just fucking with you or I am just playing....sry : )

[myb5013]

"I am just taking a piss" is the "English" version of saying - "fuck you or like I am shitting on you"

[LordAkaneon]

'taking the piss' means that he's kidding.

[KG902]

This is perfect modern day poetry, the a capella at the end proves it...this would stand alone in written words...stuff like this that is so intwined in the time, only gets fully respected after the fact when the rest of society gets a chance to gain perspective.

[mugzi22]

i knew that was a nelly line i just didn't understand y he said "i'm just taking a piss" before it

[CCCou]

Brilliant

[k8yconfidential]

Its a play off 'Hot In Here' (by Nelly) where Nelly says "im just playing, unless you gonna do it". Jay Z even says "Oh Nelly so machiavelli" in the next line of the rap! Come one people learn your hip hop

[k8yconfidential]

Come on people learn your hip hop.

It's a play off the song 'Hot in Here' by Nelly which has the line "I'm just playing...unless you gonna do it".

Jay Z even says "Oh Nelly so machiavelli" in the next line of the rap!

[dwaynethedon]

I dont get the line "nah im juss taking a piss...unless u gon do it"

[pearlexperience]

british slang for bullshiting...

[mugzi22]

i don't get why he say's unless u gonna do it??

[Raminess88]

unless you gonna do it!? HAHA

this man is amazing

[Myschly]

Dammit Jay-Z! Can't you just accept that you're not a part of this hit song and leave it alone!

[fptheghost]

This dude Jay is a fool....Whos better?

[therockyfan316]

i love the part when he goes "...unless you gonna do it"

[jiggerJaz]

London bridges are fallin down ,not bridges but Bricthess wen Jiggas in town .Ladies show me ur knickers i might let u kick it if u dont tell da misses.

Quick run before the tabloids come run from the night or you'l end up in da sun.

[furr001]

'quick run before the tabloids come, run from the night or you'l end up in the sun'

its not that hard to hear or understand

thats why he says it twice.

[mostarstyle]

[wedabest4545]

[kreaterkid]

Dman4nyc is gay!
