    JAY-Z was in attendance for the Super Bowl on Sunday (February 13) to see the Los Angeles Rams defeat the Cincinnati Bengals, while also catching the epic halftime show put together by Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige.
    In a set that ran through each of their hits, Dre and Snoop put on a performance of their classic 2001 single “Still D.R.E.,” which JAY-Z actually wrote. A proud Hov was spotted in the crowd rapping along to every word, with Beyoncé doing the same in front of him.

    The beauty of Jay writing for Dre and Snoop is there was no West Coast v East Coast foolishness to get in the way of pure creative artistry,just talented men coming together to create magic! It's too bad that Biggie and Pac didn't survive the madness of that era!

      The only thing I know about Jay-Z is that he came to L.A. a few times, and Snoop and Dre told him that, ‘When you on the west coast, you wrote a song for me, don’t worry ’bout nothing Next thing I know he’s taped up, robbed, and gagged ’” Knight recalls.

Either you think he's a biter or not, you can't deny his skills of writing and lyricism. He is the reason this song is a classic and he wrote this entire song. I know people watching aren't Jay-Z fans. I'm not a fan myself but he still one of the goats and it's up there with Pac, Nas, EM, Rakim & B.I.G.. Hate him or not, he deserves this success.

      Even Eminem, Lil Wayne, Black thought, Royce and many more said that juice was a gifted freestyler. Lil dcky who had one of the greatest freestyles ever on sway in the morning said juicewrld was the best freestyler he heard.
      Eminem in particular said that juicewrld was the best freestyler he’s ever seen.
      Check out juicewrlds freestyles on Tim Westwood. He has two freestyles that are both 1 hour long freestyles where he goes off the top of his head coherently and literally makes songs. No pre-written, no mixing in written, all pure freestyles dude and it’s pretty dope.
      I think where a lot of you oldheads and peple with the oldhead mentality go wrong at is that y’all pretty much don’t give the new generation a chance, and y’all all repeat these same b0ring, no nuanced having, narratives about all new hip hop being “bAd mUmbLe rAp tRaSh” and it’s honestly kind of ann0y1ng that y’all have become so close minded to the point where y’all have literally become the parents when hip hop first started that called hip hop bad noise that wasn’t real music, and the wh_yte k@_rens who said that hip hop was vi0lent, n_ W0rd music. Like will smith said…parents just don’t understand, now y’all have literally become a self fulfilling prophecy and so out of touch with the new generation that y’all would call an amazing freestyler and an amazing unique talent like juice who was brilliant and can come up with a smash hit in his head in 3 minutes, who freestyles whole albums and had a great melodic voice and cadence trash lol. It’s very saddening that y’all shut out so much great music that has came out within this last decade from 2010 onward when hip hop has actaully been in its most diverse, experimental, and creative stage yet….but rather then giving the music a chance and finding what y’all like y’all make everything so blak and wh_yte by saying nonsensical stuff like “oLd rAp gOod, nEw rAp bAd” lol…like where the nuance and grey area in that especially since we have had so many diverse and dope rappers like
      Kendrick, Cole, Krit, Action Bronson, Flatbush zombies, Joey bada$$, Capital stezz (pro era), Benny, Conway, Westside (Griselda), JID, 21, Yak, YB, Boat, Moneyman, Dababy, Lil Baby, Uzi, Carti, Denzel curry, SGP, Future, Drake, Travis Scott, Gunna, Roddy, ASAP rocky, Ferg, Ant, Nast (asap mob), Kevin abstract (Brock Hampton), Isiah rashad, schoolboy q, absoul, jay rock, reason (tde), cordae, yn jay, king von, durk, keef, gherbo, Dave east, juice, pop smoke, Ski, X, Robb banks, Craig zen, EST GEE, Tyler the creator, Maxo Crème, logic, Joyner lucus, Dax, NF and many more dope diverse and underground hip hop artist.
