If rap was a school, I'll be the principal, Aww fuck it, the Kane is invincible. To be specific, I may die one day, but my rhymes will remain like a hieroglyphic.🌋 His rhymes really did remain like hieroglyphics. I still be finding jewels I missed or went over my head. BEST MC EVER!
@@user-mp5rn7xc4l Exactly this dude said , " I don't mind to burn niggaz like cd's , exhibit styles I kick with it , ( cough ,cough) pardon me but I'm fucking sick with it!" 🥵On the platinum plus joint
When Bone came out (in 94'), the fast rap era had already passed. Bone came to the game with something different, which was the harmony. Yes they rapped fast, but it was the harmony that made them stand out.
@FranG1214 oh yeah Bone mixed all that stuff up R&B, alil reggae, horrorcore, gangsta rap, hip hop all in one but they was still know for their fast flows as well tho
@cheng-tsohsieh9990 Busta told a story about him and Jay-Z battling back in high school. He said Jay had him beat with that fast rapping style back then. Busta said that he thinks he got better at rapping fast over time.
Lol, Kane funny on that one. But I remember that when Jay Z came out with original flavor - can i get open ...that joint was the sh*t back then. It was one of the last east coast fast and hype records. When Nas came with half time and blackmoon with how many mcs , that's when the flow from everybody went from high pitch to a more slow flow. This is including Biggie and Jay Z.
@@rogierdevries3469"East coast fast and hype?" Only someone not from the east would even think to say that. There is not east coast hip-hop, it is THE hip-hop and other sounds are different sounds, as if there were many different ORIGINAL sounds.
That's cuz jay didn't sound right rapping fast. There's a video of jay Spitting a freestyle fast rap 94, and he sounded lame. Poor dame was actin like it was hot.
It’s crazy when you understand Kane and Jay are the same age, lol. Kane seems like an old-timer while Jay seems timeless and always relatable to young people.
That's because Jay-Z was still in prime time media being push by the machine, while Kane fell back years ago - mainly because of his own doing. The machine pushes old rappers like Jay-Z, Nas, Ice Cube, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, but everyone else has to fade away.
@@melvinhhcp3615that’s the one with Where I’m From, A Million and One Questions, Streets Is Watching, You Must Love Me, Imaginary Players, Friend or Foe ‘98, Real Niggas
Jig's career and accomplishments are tremendous. Whether people think he's the best or not is irrelevant at this point. Can't deny the impact he's made in the music industry...
Kane mentioned Sauce Money who I would like to show some love to for a minute. Sauce is one of slickest lyricists in Hip-Hop history. His pen game is on a whole nother level.
Older brother had reasonable doubt and I used to listen to it. It was hot then and still is one of the top 10 rap albums of the 90s and maybe of all time.
@@melvinhhcp3615 it’s a great album that I can listen to from beginning to end. No mediocre songs. It’s a toss up between that one and blueprint for which I think is his best.
@@donovanbrown7993 Here's my thing right ... Ppl talk about how deep Makaveli was but Tupac took on the moniker in response to a bunch of artist (mainly in NYC) who been talking about the new world order and the illuminati for years before Tupac. Artist like Organized Confusion and Wu Tang clan, Prodigy from Mobb Deep etc were speaking on secret societies and clandestine cults before Pac ever spoke on it. Pac was tryna one up all of them by saying he was like Nicholo Machiavelli but be clear, he was riding a wave they started
Dame was the visionary behind Roc-A-fella, Roc-A-Wear, Armandale liquor, State Property Music and Clothing, Kanye West and trying to form a distribution lablel with Suge and J Prince.
@@datniggaeazye.5968 bcuz folks like Lyor Cohen, Julie Greenwald and Todd Moscowick blocked Dame from getting a lot done in the industry... One can say Jay played a part in it as well..
Nice insight KANE💯…and yea-that WAS “the ticket”, I’m readin “overrated” comments…🫢about Jay? U niccas LISTEN 2 Reasonable Doubt? And alot MORE? C’mon y’all, I’m👂🏽since beginning-late 1970’s-and Jay Z(& KANE!) gotta be IN “everybody’s Top 10”…much higher 4 ME. Thx 4 🎙️ the 🎤G.O.A.T. Big Daddy Kane. #OldBrooklyn💨
I don't find it surprising that they passed on jayz. Biggie death opened the door to Jayz and other artists. A lot of people revere Jay z as one of the best. But, I personally beg to differ.
Lol Funny because Biggie himself admitted that Jay-Z was better than him. A lot of people forget or are unaware that Jay-Z was a beast before he went pop
To people saying jay was wack or talking negative whatever obviously werent there during his 96-03 run. I remember CAN I GET A...BIG PIMPIN...H-TO THE IZZO...being played constantly on radio. Those were just SOME of his huge hits
Keyword: radio..!! He is a radio type rapper.. I really don't think that the hood has and/or had J.Z. in heavy rotation in the car stereos/daily lives of the hood.. Maybe at a lot of house parties/clubs....
@@bookworm_breakdown knock it off. He had grimy cuts for the hood. And peeps were bumping him in the hood. Do ya research fam.cause yall lazy to do it ya selves
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 One of the best to ever do it...I've had a crush on this dude forever! Him speaking on jz being rejected early on in his career spoke volumes to me....Makes me think and believe that he did/will do anything to be relevant and to make the assumption that he's at the top! When Pac was doing his thang...where was jz? I'm still boycotting the NFL because of what they did to KAP...and had jz not have misspoken, and took a stand for the people...he might be considered one of greatest...To me 2PaC will always have that spot bc he loved and cared for the people, regardless and he didn't forget where he came from or, who helped to get him there!!!
@@thunderouso6662I mean, you can literally see a starving Jay-Z in BDK and Positive K videos, waiting for his turn, but Jay-z first came out in 1985 - before Kane! Let that sink in.
Jay put himself on. Kane just finished saying that nobody signed Jay when he was shopping him. That's why he went back to the streets and continued pumpin. He came back in the late '90s when Big L linked him with Dame Dash.
The Interviewer was expecting some lame Jay-z hate fest from BDK, naw duke you should've did your research on them, there is no ill will between them 2 at all. smfh.
Jay wqs told to be quiet, don't talk much or else. Pac did not have people over him telling him everydamn thing to do he was actually working without the machine behind him.
I never liked Jay Z. But his reasonable doubt era was when he was cold. I just never seen a top notch emcee get out rapped and out freestyled in virtually everything. Tupac is my favorite artist and he has done music with artists you would consider more technical or with a more complex rhyme scheme, and I never ever heard Tupac get out rapped. He even has a track with Big Daddy Kane.
@@logent80 Not a fan of Jay Z at all. I acknowledged his reasonable doubt stuff was nice. Now accept it and move on lol...My eldest brother had his Blue print stuff when it first came out and he would be playing it when we went places & it never did anything for me.
@@logent80I'm not a jay fan, but I thought BP1 was his strongest most confident sounding album, even though he still stole a lot on it. His only other notable albums were Black Album, Kingdom Come, and American Gangster. That's it.
What about on "Got My Mind Made Up?" Redman had the best verse on there... oh, and Money B. took Pac to school on "I Get Around," even Pac admitted that, because he told Money B that he got him on that song.
When I was young, we used to hear stories about Kane hanging out with the 4s and Breeds at this club in Chicago on Madision cant remember the name of probably 91-94.
Encore last verse "record companies told me I couldn't cut it, now look at me all star studded, above par like I putted, all cuz the shit I uttered utterly ridiculous how sick is this" smh
@danksinatra5977 jay z had the speed up tng twista flow he and Jaz O help create it.they originated that style to be fair but like kane said ,the labels werent ready for him back then.
Lol Hella Jay-Z haters in these comments. But Jay was a phenomenal emcee in his prime. I still regard Reasonable Doubt as the best album of all time next to Illmatic. Mr. Cee (R.I.P.) said that Biggie once admitted that Jay-Z was better than him. It's easy to look down on Jay-Z now days, but in the mid 90s he was on a whole nother level
G Rap said that on Reasonable Doubt, Jay was in his own league lyrically and nobody was fuckin with him. Not Rakim, Nas, Big, AZ, Ras Kass, KRS, Kane... I have to agree.
RD flopped when it came out. Illmatic also. You guys saying RD or Illmatic is the greatest album ever are cult followers. Respek to Nas though. He really deserves his status. Jay? Not so much.
@@melvinhhcp3615 Lol High sales don't always equate to great hip hop. If you were a true hip hop fan you'd already know this. I didn't even know that Reasonable Doubt or Illmatic existed when they first came out because those albums weren't promoted that much in my area
That's what rap was all about, biting music (sampling) bite flows, Jay just adapted well. He changed his style up a few times. Definitely was biting Biggie but hey, that's how it goes.
It wasn't biting, it's a way to big up rappers he admired. Every rapper quotes other rappers but when it comes to Jay it's biting? Kendrick quotes Jay every other time, so does Cole, so did Eminem...are they biters now? Besides Jay best album is RD, purely his lines
I only like the songs he did with Biggie, he had 3 tracks with Big and that's when he was at his best. Dead prez was too Nas for me, hard knock life catchy but too pop.
It's funny that you mentioned Dead Prez, because he ended up dissing Nas because Nas didn't want to do the actual feature. Jay later on fronted like he was the man, but never really was...
Art: * Looks at notes .. *Repeat the same question, I literally just asked him .. “So, labels issue was his flow. ..” ?? Kane: *I literally just told this mofo that . .. *Takes a deep breath .. *Contains himself .. “Yeah ..”
@@CAdams93 You guys wouldn’t know good music if it was standing right in front of you 😂. Alabama produces ZERO rappers and Houston’s claim to fame is Mike Jones
“He change it up and got on his gangsta hustla ish!” Means the Jay they shopped to labels was the real him…… the switch up was him conforming to the industry negative wishes and desires for hip hop and the black community.
@@bigolbabyhuey #peace RZA iz a Lyricist-Hybrid between KRS & Ra. I do not kno your knowledge of Hip-Hop, but if you kno the Kulture; the best-way to align why he #1 would be like Miles to 🎷, Jimi to 🎸, or Sugar-Ray Robinson to 🥊, etc. He the only Hip-Hop Artist that if someone said they "didn't-get" would qualify them for 1: not knowin Hip-Hop, and 2: not bein Kulture #reverently
@@ZeusAVIHe did work hard to get on and to keep trying even when no one wanted him, so I give it up to him for that, but two things had to happen in order for Jay-Z to be on top and somehow, is still seen as the biggest name. Biggie had to go, and the the secret society keeps Jay-Z and his forced marriage wife on top, even though the music biz is done and both are older...
@kingofcharlottenc them labels would have messed his career up , with less push ...That Reasonable Doubt album didn't sell well for a reason . But Jigga is one resilient dude , the nigga has been rapping since the late 80s
@joshuakithyoma9575 Resilient indeed. It led him to his current success. Must have been a long road for him, but he made it in the end, which is satisfactory for him.
Now yall can stop saying Dame hating on Jay. BDK just said the same thing Dame said. Dame said Jay was from Brooklyn and had no swag. The way he dressed when he came around Dame and Harlem ninjas they used to clown him for how he dressed.
Nah Kane ain’t saying the same thing 90-91 labels wanted niggas with that native tongue kente look Jay was dressing like Brooklyn street dudes guess polo and jewels
Jay has always been my favorite Hip Hop artist. People hate on this dude and it's crazy. People always hate in the Best...Jay, Jordan, Kobe, Tom Brady, Steph Curry, etc. People hate dominant winners.
Let's be honest, Jay Z(from 1996-now) has never lyrically been on the same level as any of the rap artists of his era that were considered G.O.A.T.s. For he was not messing with Nas, Biggie, Pac, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, Scarface, Andre 3000, Big Pun, and any other true lyrical force of that time. Matter of fact can anybody name me one Jay Z song that blew off the charts. But anyway what Jay Z had(in combinations) that put him above other rap artists was his endurance & consistently(bringing about longevity), his business sense(making smart money moves), his vision(seeing the bigger scope of things, and planning accordingly), and etc. I mean the fact that he married Beyonce elevated his status. So yes Jay Z is successful as hell, but not because of his lyrical abilities.
Its so crazy how history is being rewritten that Hov is a decent mc but a great businessman thats why he is where he's at. Like u can't just go listen to his music, but u would also have to b able to understand how ill it was when he was doing it. It's like in ten years people r gonna b telling me Lebron going to 9 straight finals wasn't that serious.
And then big died and everyone was asked who's next and jay jumped up. Just like when pac died the outlaws were asked who's next but no one understood what that really meant
Jay-Z was the actual underdog who put in the work and surpassed and outlasted all his peers. Literally the blueprint of what every rapper dreams to be in the end. The American Dream personified.
People Hate Jay-Z for NO reason, Big Daddy Kane NEVER talk bad about him. But since y'all DCK ride Tupac sooooo much. Y'all would hate on every rapper from New York at least 🤣 🤣 🤣
I dont dickride or hate any human being. I like some Jay Z songs, thats about it. In rap i like Pac's music the most. But rap is just one of the genre's i listen to
