Leoard Cowin is the one getting paid. Thats where the money is. Are whites buying it? Who cares? Money is green. Without him J would he selling out of his trunk. Know the chain of command. J has other investments. You can own a label, but how will you get your product to the people.
Jay and his music got me through a lot of tough times. I could relate not to the drug aspect as I've never sold drugs, but the epidemic where a lot of my family members were pushers then became users. The songs about his dad and women; man me and my boys drinking and listening to Jay would really have some serious talks about life and tell our innermost secrets about family and things sometimes coming to tears. I've been riding with Jay ever since I got out of the Marine Corps in 1992 and listened to Reasonable Doubt in a record store in 1996 before I purchased it. By the way I was born one year 1968 before Jay, but I definitely admire the dude the way he tells a story.
😊 I know you guys in that room that owns record stores that was selling a lot of hip hop music. I know all your faces turn red when I heard TH-cam was coming through😊 I can just imagine your face expression that changed the future TH-cam for the best. Trust me for the best you know and all those people that was making millions and billions of dollars doing nothing. Well they had to go and get another hustle. That's good because your time is off anyway. So welcome to the TH-cam. Enjoy it! 💯 It's a lot better right guys
Hov worth 1.3 Billion now. And rising. Not bad for a kid from Brooklyn's Marcy Projects. Respect to Jay. *Edit: About 15 months later, and Jay's now worth 2.5 Billion.
Jay z is a wordsmith. A lot of rappers don't know or understand what that means and how it goes.. I followed jay z formulas ... yes if you decipher his words you will see the formula... did my shit ,stayed out if jail worked now inluve in the suburbs..youngest of 5 boys from the projects...
Ridiculous. Someone having a large vocabulary should not be the reason you act on the inherent awareness of right vs wrong. You like jay-z music? Just say that and leave the douchey horseshit out of it.
His rise from rags to riches is one of the greatest stories of all time in the music business, watching these clips and interviews of his days with Rocafella you can easily slip into a rabbit hole.
Timeless !!! Classic !! I love this material. So successfull ! So Many lessons (business / entrepreneurship / leadership / strategy/ art). Jay Z the CEO of Hip Hop is the GOAT.
I like how he subliminally let the executives know he was great like guns and roses by playing a hook saying guns and roses. That was a brilliant move. That marketing company was bopping their head.
Watching this made me realize who he started making music for. Jay is great at promoting his music commercially and its now apparent to me that when he became more commercially successful, he was thinking, "i gotta make something the hood will feel, and something that white execs will understand". And this is why Jays music is used in so many commercials, why Gunz and Roses and a few other songs were used in Cradle to the Grave
Being From Brooklyn NY myself it's about going all out to move over the bridge enhance a great place to live we don't have a plan it's about progress salute never give up .I made it myself from Brooklyn NY from the streets of hard knock Life ?
Son was and still is a real dude always handling business...he was always at the park battle rapping... bodying the competition that came through Marcy I'm very honored to have came up around Jigga..lot of people hate on son because he wasn't a slave to the label he did it on his own... knowing him from his humble beginnings and seeing how far he's come and become the man he is today is very inspirational.. Salute Brooklyn Titan and Marcy Legend You Heard Word Up
Love this interview for someone who saw this young man every time I rode on the B54 bus on my way home from work. I'm proud of his hard work and achievements from where he came from to where he is today.. He deserve to be acknowledged for the hard work he put into accomplishing his goals. Great Success Story and I'm proud of the man he is today. Mr. JayZ I saw you grow up to become a amazing successful business man. 😍

@@SS-ii6nz that’s gotta feel good to see someone come from a background where it’s easy to become a statistic and make it SOOOOO far away from that narrative! I’d be proud too in fact, I am. Proud of him and anybody else that may be reading this and has come/is coming up.
I liked Jay-Z's music. He's cool! I think his rise to fame and success is an interesting story. I was born in New York to a family that was barely lower middle class. It is cool to see a young black man gain popularity and fame from the ghetto. He made it!
Wow!!!!! I’m happy for his chance/change….. People make wrong decisions, it’s what you learn from it that counts. It’s not about how you started, but how you finished. His leaving a legacy of honor, THATS ALL THAT MATTERS ❤️🖤
When he asked Jay Z's mother does she like Jay Z's music..she hesitated because women really don't like rap like that.. especially women our mothers ages..they didn't grow up with Hip Hop..they were already grown when it came out
"Who ever thought young Sean Carter would change the game? I used to rap to the rain drops on my window pane." Look @ that place where him and his mom was walking, where he grew up. Look @ where he is now. They told you you wasn't ish from the get go. That place was LOVE, bad & all. You just couldn't recognize it @ 1st.
I can see the discomfort in having to assimilate to a group of people that have never had his nor his peoples best interest at heart, and create partnerships that will allow him to. My hat’s off to him for putting in the work…and boy, has it paid off for him and his family!
And they wonder why celebs don't like to do interviews. You can tell they never prep him before that sit down. He was uncomfortable with questions about his brother. Can see it in his face. In the business sector they call it "just doing my job". In the hood we call you a "douche bag ".
it felt they just wanted to portray him as a criminal and the question about flow. why not educate yourself about the terms instead of asking your interviewee. as a pro it felt neglectful
But he answered with respect and respect was given. Their job as a reporter is to make you comfortable, answering uncomfortable questions. Jayz is a smart quick thinker, that came from being in the game. Don’t hate the player hate the game🤣🤣🤣🤣
Always loved and adorn Jay Z primary reason is because his love and adoration is so GREAT for his friends, family, loved ones especially the women in his life starting with his wife his kids and his BELOVED mom ❤️ he's just an respectable person & human being would also consider him the perfect GENTLEMAN.
The thing I admire from jay and ye is they was both confident in themselves they ain’t stop they kept going they believed in themselves even if no1 else seen it they visualized there success

Hi I am work on a documentary about Jay z gonna post it on TH-cam I was wondering if I could use a small clip from your video in my documentary if that's okay
Appropriated or appreciated...?? RZA & Wu Tang Clan.. did they Appropriate or appreciate from ancient Chinese Martial Arts Culture..??? Did some rappers Appropriate or appreciate their names from Italian & Jewish Mobsters .. Capone, Scarface, Siegel & Gotti

I was cracking up when his mother was talking about how she wishes he would tone down on the cursing, & his immediate reply was “shiiiiiiiiiiit” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
