Jay Z was making like 8 grand a month from the age of 17 onward from drugs. He used that to push his own album at 27 when labels wanted no part of it. At a time where labels were the gate keepers, If he didnt have that drug money he probably wouldn’t have gotten to where he did.

While George is right about his views on capitalism, he is wrong about Jay-Z. The "Hustler" persona often describe themselves as "Self Made", Jay-Z however never did. It is evident in lyrics such as" Clark sought me out, Dame believed" on the song "Momma Loves Me".

George for president aka prime minister..... Great young man...

This have to be a joke. So basically he saying NO ONE in the Congo makes money not have anything. Jay Z is self made to say he isn’t is such an unintelligent statement. People have success and created businesses all over the world…….you can’t compare one person and what they’ve done with themselves to someone else’s, it makes no sense.

George the Poet is a true Capricorn. No one deciphers the patriarchal, capitalistic system under which we live like a Capricorn ruled by Saturn. Muhammad Ali was one of them. Lol.

@younglove3362 Ай бұрын

I don't know, Capricorn are know to be grounded but that can also make them dumb. They're not Virgo dumb, but dumb none the less.

@47oe12 Ай бұрын

You cant judge one person based on their sun ☀️ sign, there’s many aspects, planets & signs that make a person who they are… also environmental and social situations - You could have 2 Capricorn ♑️ people who act differently.. even though their sun sign is the same they might have some similarities but they will not be identical people.

@younglove3362 Ай бұрын

@47oe12 Capricorn is Earth 🌎 sign but you're right. Besides, a person born on the first Capricorn day will have some sag signs (sun, I just got you) will be different from some born on the last day (water sign mixture).

@nattyjosh22 Ай бұрын

@47oe12 👏👏👏👏👏🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯 you are clearly not a novice regarding Astrology.. It is people like you that I enjoy discussing Astrology with, not people like the one saying Virgos are dumb in the comments. Thank you for your valuable contribution to the discussion. 🙏🏿🙏🏿

@nattyjosh22 Ай бұрын

@younglove3362 I don't which Virgo you will be dealing with but I better warn you, Virgos are not dumb at all. You underestimate a Virgo at your own peril. You can certainly Virgos are selfless but certainly not dumb. Infact, they are one of the most intelligent sign: even more intelligent than Geminis who are also ruled by the planet Mercury. If you know a Virgo that you consider dumb then it must be something peculiar to them as in a debilitation in their personal birth chart. Thank you. PS: I am Virgo myself who happens to be a Chartered Surveyor by profession with two businesses (side hustles) each currently valued at £2M.

Nobody is self made. You have to know people that have your same interests at heart. Jay didn’t do anything by himself.

Right no such thing as self made and so such thing as "The G.o.a.t" these convos are meant to go nowhere and divide the room, so lets not waste our time. Lets just get better at what we do instead of defedng ideals & people who could give an eff about us lol.
