Neither is Jay.

And, you are now officially a clown.

Fuck, I even remember an episode of BET Tonight where certain Rashid "Common" Lynn referred to Jay as having some very conscious records.

If you aren't conscious, does that make you "unconscious". You've got to get up pretty early in the morning to be completely unconscious. Ja Rule manages to do it, and I think Nelly does too. But Jay is definitely conscious (Nas is too). Just because you're a "street" emcee or a "commercial" emcee does not mean you cannot also be a "conscious" emcee.
