Just wanted to point out that Kap got over $50m's from NIKE... Literally waaay more money he would of received from playing football. So it's not like he left empty handed
It's crazy that you're wondering whether this billionaire is "loyal to the streets" or not. No, he's not. He's a billionaire. He's loyal to money. That's how you become a billionaire, by being loyal to getting paid and not anything else.
And exactly that is the problem. At some point you hoard so much wealth that it just does something to you. In my opinion that's the reason why majority of the top billionaires only care about making more money even though they objectively don't need more money. It's a never ending goose chase that costs you your humanity. I'm not saying Jay-Z should stay loyal to the streets, but staying loyal to greed isn't the way either I think.

Rappers from back then are not exaggerating about who Jay Z actually is. He had to get his hands a little dirty in order to get to where he is right now.
They were moving to Brooklyn long before they hired Jay. And the people displaced weren’t home owners. And if you look at the Barclays there are predominately blk ppl working there. So if you want to credit him for displacing blk ppl. Look at the blk jobs he created.
Beloved that play was in motion before Jay became on board. Brooklyn was already in its gentrification process when the deal was done.

I don't see anything out of the ordinary here, even with Dame Dash. He was disloyal to Jay-Z within Roc-A-Fella, making moves behind his back like trying to appoint Cam'ron as VP without his knowledge. Add that to his arrogance and temper, he was simply a liability.
Agreed. I also don't see anything wrong with him helping other artist and using it for his benefit. They both get something out of it. Nothing wrong with that. The Tidal deal was nasty work though.
Yes, we know that it was a wise decision. But it highlights Jay-Z's readiness to betray someone, even people who had helped him earlier on, and who he had been close with.
It's still funny that after all this, Jay Z thought being called a capitalist was an insult. Using other people to get to the top and abandoning partners for gain is what capitalists do. It's not about the money. It's about the moves that led many who stood by you to feel fucked out.
@@Andy-td8eo Not really. Jay had to answer to LA Reid who was the CEO & had final say. Don't forget Dee & Waah of RR confirmed that Jay went against LA Reid's wishes & cleared the $12M debt X owed to Def Jam upon granting him his release. It's known LA didn't like any of the hip hop artists & favored R&B acts more at the label. Jay was a key figure in the Jeezy & Ross signings when LA wasn't feeling it originally.
That was when he was 12yrs old and his brother, who was addicted to crack stole his ring and challenged him. He immediately felt remorseful and his brother forgave him when he went to see him at the hospital. He, in fact looks after his whole family and set them up financially so your comment has no merit.

If you get a good mentor, you're taught to maneuver your way around like a snake.

I like how you ignored the fact Jay Z was a big "fan" of Diddy's parties, and that video of him walking out that room in a towel with those not that old looking girls in it!
Ya'll be flat out LYING. Diddy's white party in the 90's early 00's was similar to Michael Rubin's white party of the past year. It was the "IT' social event in entertainment, EVERYONE was there and I mean "EVERYONE". The Diddy accusation stuff happened at ^in the words of Diddy^ "the Party Party" which was known in the industry for all that public lewdness stuff. If you stayed for the after party then you were game as you knew what went down. Were you at the Party Party to share activities and seen Jay-Z there ? Humans just be throwing accusations hoping one sticks.
True, it's get Jay-Z season. Let's create content now it's trendy to attract eyeballs, the content don't have to be true just spicy. Dude completely twisted public information l to make content and attract traffic. A hit piece for sure.
If by artists you mean rappers then yeah, for the most part, they either came from the bottom or pretended to come from the bottom... very few of those who came from the bottom arrived there with their principals intact and those who pretended to come from the bottom did not have those in the first place. But there are a some who seems pretty sound. 50, Em, Nas, and Wayne.
Now wait a damn minute. I was with you on pretty much everything up until the kapernick part. Jay has nothing to do with why he doesn't have a job. He was never gonna get picked up again. ESPECIALLY after winning that lawsuit against the league. He made the NFL look bad... TWICE. Them people won't be messing with him no more after that. That's not Jay's fault at all.
Like 50 said, before Jay was in a relationship with Beyonce, he had one or two Grammys, once he was in a relationship and got married, he has 20+ Grammys, hell, even Megan through her association with Beyonce won 3 Grammys
We don’t get mad at rappers for dealing drugs to the community or killing rivals but be a good businessman that’s where we draw the line. People only hate on Jay cuz it’s trendy 😂😂
@@keithnicholson1852ever met someone who said Jay z was really outside there's not a single interview of anyone collaborating that story ... plenty of folks coming out exposing him. Dude wasn't outside don't need to defend him he was in a head office giving head
50 has the internet on his side because he trolls and makes jokes on instagram, but ppl ignore the fact the original g-unit clique all left because of him, only yayo stayed because he's dependent on 50. but 50 somehow managed to make folks believe they all left because they were the problem. 50 is always the good guy. In todays world the internet is the new "streets", if the internet is on your side you can pretty much get away with anything. Jay could care less what the internet thinks, he's locked in on business
The way he went at mobb deep too was weird, and when prodigy and the mobb went to confront him in the clubs he ran till they finally caught him in the street and all he did just stick his hand and say said “it’s just business”
Jay-Z helps multiple people in the industry plenty times over, he has never asked for publicity. These people are the ones who make those instances public with Lil Wayne saying "I know that man don't want me to say this, but Jay-Z helped me". Emphasis on I KNOW THAT MAN DON'T WANT ME TO SAY THIS. Damson Idris and many public figures have hinted at Jay-Z assisting them while clearly stating that Jay-Z don't want his business public. Ya'll just want to be mad so bad. Sorta like how they keep lying about Beyoncé been a teen when Jay-Z started dating her, even after Matthew Knowles(Destiny's Child and Bey's manager until 2008) categorically laugh that BS as false I've seen people online go "He's just lying because he wants to protect Jay-Z" which makes no sense. I like how hiphopmadness twisted this for content. Lol. Trust me, I understand. I make content too.
J was 10 years older than Aaliyah, 9 years older than Foxy Brown, and 12 years older than Beyonce. He knew all of them when they were younger than 18. I don't care about his alleged shady business deals as much as I care about his close friendship with Diddy -- for decades -- and his alleged relationships with underage girls.
It's amazing how hard they go after every black billionaire with power in the industry. Every one of them has negative publicity following them like a hawk. Do you see them talk the same way about the many cutthroat white billionaires in the entertainment industry that does far worse. Not one of them. Jay-Z is a smart man that outmaneuvered everyone and played chess in business while everyone else was playing checkers. He's also very powerful and making moves that's ruffling many people's feathers in the industry that have eaten well off of the artists for many years. He's released two anti-prison documentaries that have angered the billion dollar prison industry. He's got a target on his back for many power moves he's making which is the exact reason many TH-camrs are going after him. They're getting paid big time to do so and many of them are black and they know that no one will bring down another black person like a black person. Their efforts of trying desperately to link him with Puffy hasn't really panned out like they were hoping so they grab at straws hoping the less intelligent of the masses will join their cause with the many innuendos and assumptions they throw in the mix.
It’s funny that the music industry has always had these cutthroat movers, but of course nobody cares until it is the artist that is making the moves. I don’t even like Jay-Z’s catalog and could confidently put twenty rappers above him, but he is good and I don’t begrudge him being able to outwit his peers to become a mogul. That is the business. And if you’re Dame Dash, you’re not the talent and if you get hustled out of your spot, that’s on you.
I fail to see what he did wrong here; he made business moves and help others along the way. This is what business men do; they aren't going to help those who they can't benefit from. They are always looking at Profit vs Deficit; it's the nature of the beast. Those who let personal emotions control their business dealings will never succeed.
Who's here after the first lawsuit to come out that's got Jay and Diddy R*ping a 13 year old? This could get real messy but Jay will probably use his money and power to get out of trouble this time....
@@runup3639which is what bugs me. I'm sure why hiphopmadness was making research for this video he came upon those instances, yet they'll completely omit details that don't fit the narrative of the video. And if they get sued their retirement is always "It's just content". I guess it's COE(Content Over Everything) for real. If you create content you'd understand this, content creators are so irresponsible and don't GA flying F.
Being in your 50s and being loyal to the streets got to be the dumbest thing I've heard...all I hear is this guy out growing who he surrounding himself with

I like how you ignored the fact Jay Z was a big "fan" of Diddy's parties, and that video of him walking out that room in a towel with those not that old looking girls in it!
Got a interesting video coming out about the diddy parties, should be out soon 🤞
@@hiphopmadnesshell yeah
Ya'll be flat out LYING.
Diddy's white party in the 90's early 00's was similar to Michael Rubin's white party of the past year. It was the "IT' social event in entertainment, EVERYONE was there and I mean "EVERYONE".
The Diddy accusation stuff happened at ^in the words of Diddy^ "the Party Party" which was known in the industry for all that public lewdness stuff. If you stayed for the after party then you were game as you knew what went down.
Were you at the Party Party to share activities and seen Jay-Z there ?
Humans just be throwing accusations hoping one sticks.

This was the first sponsor video i actually looked into. Thanks for that. And the video is great too
6:09 You can’t hustle someone out of money they don’t have. Dame missed the opportunity
In the end, Dame has honour and respect if I had money I would partner with him. I would say let’s go find some new rappers real Street-rappers.
Total hit piece. They are several key points left out
True, it's get Jay-Z season. Let's create content now it's trendy to attract eyeballs, the content don't have to be true just spicy.
Dude completely twisted public information l to make content and attract traffic. A hit piece for sure.
That you Jay?
Dame Dash has been saying it 🤷🏽♂️
Not you on Dame’s d1ck 💀
So.
He’s loyalty to people who are loyal to him. Tyty, Lenny s etc still around. Dame was in competition with Jay with girls… not worth it in the end
No one becomes a billionaire innocently and pure, I mean no one.
Salute Hip-HopMadness 💪💪💪💪
But i do believe...most artists, if they were in jayz position, would make 90% of the deals he made. The other 10%, probably not😢
Exactly if they were smart enough to
💯👍
@@RicoSoprano_it don’t require that much smarts. Jayz an opportunist
@@davruck1 you don’t become a billionare being dumb idc what you say
If by artists you mean rappers then yeah, for the most part, they either came from the bottom or pretended to come from the bottom... very few of those who came from the bottom arrived there with their principals intact and those who pretended to come from the bottom did not have those in the first place.
But there are a some who seems pretty sound. 50, Em, Nas, and Wayne.
I'm not a businessman, I'm a BUSINESS.... MANNNNN, Excuse my business, DAMNN
Lame verse
They still don’t get it smh and the man told yall
@@redpete89 why is it a lame verse?
@@allurn1804 he's boring, and overrated. The way he delivers lines puts you to sleep. It's ok if you like him. That's fine with me
Now wait a damn minute. I was with you on pretty much everything up until the kapernick part. Jay has nothing to do with why he doesn't have a job. He was never gonna get picked up again. ESPECIALLY after winning that lawsuit against the league. He made the NFL look bad... TWICE. Them people won't be messing with him no more after that. That's not Jay's fault at all.
Thank You HipHop Madness for making this informative video!!
Great video! Keep up the research this is so good
Jay Z in 2024: im ain’t a business man im a politician MAN!
😂😂
jayz started winning grammys attaching himself to beyonce celebrity
He had Grammers before he was Beyonce 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Shane-ju7op2 not 20 lmao
@@tevincollins2869Beyoncé had none by the time we got Crazy in Love
Like 50 said, before Jay was in a relationship with Beyonce, he had one or two Grammys, once he was in a relationship and got married, he has 20+ Grammys, hell, even Megan through her association with Beyonce won 3 Grammys
We don’t get mad at rappers for dealing drugs to the community or killing rivals but be a good businessman that’s where we draw the line. People only hate on Jay cuz it’s trendy 😂😂
That’s a good point tbh. People will hate on jay but say rip to king von 😂😂
Love the longer form content
They called him Bozo the clown in the projects
Prove it
@@keithnicholson1852ever met someone who said Jay z was really outside there's not a single interview of anyone collaborating that story ... plenty of folks coming out exposing him. Dude wasn't outside don't need to defend him he was in a head office giving head
@@keithnicholson1852them lips don't lie
50 cent tried to warn us about everyone but himself.
💯 HES A SNAKE HIMSELF
50 has the internet on his side because he trolls and makes jokes on instagram, but ppl ignore the fact the original g-unit clique all left because of him, only yayo stayed because he's dependent on 50. but 50 somehow managed to make folks believe they all left because they were the problem. 50 is always the good guy. In todays world the internet is the new "streets", if the internet is on your side you can pretty much get away with anything. Jay could care less what the internet thinks, he's locked in on business
The way he went at mobb deep too was weird, and when prodigy and the mobb went to confront him in the clubs he ran till they finally caught him in the street and all he did just stick his hand and say said “it’s just business”
Jay-Z helps multiple people in the industry plenty times over, he has never asked for publicity. These people are the ones who make those instances public with Lil Wayne saying "I know that man don't want me to say this, but Jay-Z helped me".
Emphasis on I KNOW THAT MAN DON'T WANT ME TO SAY THIS.
Damson Idris and many public figures have hinted at Jay-Z assisting them while clearly stating that Jay-Z don't want his business public.
Ya'll just want to be mad so bad. Sorta like how they keep lying about Beyoncé been a teen when Jay-Z started dating her, even after Matthew Knowles(Destiny's Child and Bey's manager until 2008) categorically laugh that BS as false I've seen people online go "He's just lying because he wants to protect Jay-Z" which makes no sense.
I like how hiphopmadness twisted this for content. Lol.
Trust me, I understand. I make content too.
Jayz just wanted a simple thing in return, for lil Wayne to release C4 for a week on tidal but birdman got in the way
awesome video super informative super clear
Best video I've seen on Jay-Z's come up. Smart business moves for sure.
Yall are desperately trying to invent a case on Jay. Until I hear some legal allegations, none of this ish is relevant.
Don't let the door hit you
Wow but you answered anyway smh 🤦♀️
New vid big W
🙏❤️
its just so hard to look at jay z face holy
Never understood why people put Jay z in their top 5 lists
OK I listen fully. Thank you for information that I probably wouldn’t of known otherwise.
He also just resigned his deal with nfl
11:15 its not "alleged" when you're found guilty of it.
She lied about it goofy.
Thank you!
@@zoolman101prove it in court dumdum.
8:13 jayz is looking like he's the Medusa from that greek folklore horror story. 🤦🏻♂️ SMH
Lmaaaoooo 😅😂🤣
Lol he definitely needs to shave that dirt old mop off his head. Not like he was good looking to start with. 😂
Great video
J was 10 years older than Aaliyah, 9 years older than Foxy Brown, and 12 years older than Beyonce. He knew all of them when they were younger than 18.
I don't care about his alleged shady business deals as much as I care about his close friendship with Diddy -- for decades -- and his alleged relationships with underage girls.
It's amazing how hard they go after every black billionaire with power in the industry. Every one of them has negative publicity following them like a hawk.
Do you see them talk the same way about the many cutthroat white billionaires in the entertainment industry that does far worse. Not one of them. Jay-Z is a smart man that outmaneuvered everyone and played chess in business while everyone else was playing checkers.
He's also very powerful and making moves that's ruffling many people's feathers in the industry that have eaten well off of the artists for many years. He's released two anti-prison documentaries that have angered the billion dollar prison industry. He's got a target on his back for many power moves he's making which is the exact reason many TH-camrs are going after him. They're getting paid big time to do so and many of them are black and they know that no one will bring down another black person like a black person. Their efforts of trying desperately to link him with Puffy hasn't really panned out like they were hoping so they grab at straws hoping the less intelligent of the masses will join their cause with the many innuendos and assumptions they throw in the mix.
cap. diddy just snitched on the ceo of abercrombie. go look.
Dude is just good at business. That’s it
It’s funny that the music industry has always had these cutthroat movers, but of course nobody cares until it is the artist that is making the moves. I don’t even like Jay-Z’s catalog and could confidently put twenty rappers above him, but he is good and I don’t begrudge him being able to outwit his peers to become a mogul. That is the business. And if you’re Dame Dash, you’re not the talent and if you get hustled out of your spot, that’s on you.
Prodigy was always calling jay out for choosing the wrong team
I fail to see what he did wrong here; he made business moves and help others along the way. This is what business men do; they aren't going to help those who they can't benefit from. They are always looking at Profit vs Deficit; it's the nature of the beast. Those who let personal emotions control their business dealings will never succeed.
where’s that one video on why new rappers arent that cool? it was deleted in like an hr
TH-cam took it down! Will re-upload it next weekend for you

1:58 that is incorrect jaz o said jay z got his name from a dj in brooklyn called jazzy a dj that jay z liked and ended up using his name
There's NO WAY Jay Z got to where he is on his own merit. What made Jay more special than anyone else?
No one in the corner got a swagger like him
With one million voice hot b at home
I really really really like your voice. I can listen to it for days.
No Billionaire has made all of that money without getting their hands dirty.
Who's here after the first lawsuit to come out that's got Jay and Diddy R*ping a 13 year old? This could get real messy but Jay will probably use his money and power to get out of trouble this time....
JayZ has been a sellout for YEARS..
This video is nothing more than showing that Jay Z is a smart businessman
Great fucking video! Keep up the good work
Appreciate that man! 🙏
It was nice to know ya
I’ve seen jay help Wayne after Birman Ws trying to kill him

@@runup3639which is what bugs me.
I'm sure why hiphopmadness was making research for this video he came upon those instances, yet they'll completely omit details that don't fit the narrative of the video.
And if they get sued their retirement is always "It's just content".
I guess it's COE(Content Over Everything) for real.
If you create content you'd understand this, content creators are so irresponsible and don't GA flying F.
@@laflare0923not everything is transactional bruh 🤦🏻♂️ you ever help a friend or family member?
