41. "RE: Jay-Z dis or shout out to the Roots..." In response to In response to 0
he can't change his appeal.he has fans that did him they inspire him to excell as that "type" of rapper.he wasnt successfull before and if he changes he won't be around later ..he won't sell being the "intelligent" rapper,or break new grounds a.k.a the roots .at the sametime he's smart enough to know he has to evolve.it's a catch 22.he knows sales dont mean sh*t ask candyman and vanilla ice.also people have short memories so he says "oh i know ill challenge mobb and nas-atleast become a trivia question answer and atleast create debate about my legitamacy in the hirearchy that way ill go down in history guaranteed.ill atleast have a relationship with the best artists (roots) and see where i stand and where to go from there". hes realized his $ and his fans limit his creativity. because he lack the true ability to go to different levels like all the best do.if he had smart fans wouldnt he have original album titles?and not just change the volume numbers so he doesnt confuse them? for more see Nas "God Son" and mobb deep "infamy" i sound like a hater but i cant convince myself im wrong.
