The Golden age my friend, these simple elements made you look “legit”or “fly”

Ty Lowe i was born in 97’ so i didnt get to see these times how was it really?

@@lilrylotv3684 Dope! Those artists back then did it for the love of hip hop and not like today's artists who use hip hop as a get rich quick scheme.

Loved this era. From 96 to very early 2000s where great. From jays classic "reasonable doubt" in 96' to wu-tang forever double album and obviously nas classic albums to bigs 2 albums at that time to pacs all eyes on me, me against the world....ahhhh man can go on and on its was definitely the golden era just lucky to have grown up during that time. The radios were playin bangers one after another and it was more competitive too these artists were coming at eachothers heads every damn week!

@joh nypotapov no

I agree.....i think people was more open minded at da time as far fans of hip hop....i rap an can admit dem niggas was rappin to shit alot of rappers cant rap to so da beat alone was only able to carry da artist but so far....u had to make dem lyrics an dat flow count

Word... this was the golden era so many different styles from tribe, nas, wu, Busta, the list goes on and each of them sounded unique. I’m biased never liked west coast gangster rap.

Ni🤐az getting millions of dollars. Ni🤐az playing all that hardcore shit. Stop it. Because yall niggas kiss yall mommas before and vanable states cried. Non of yall niggas playing iron men if so you lied.😑

X2 the best era ever. Didn't realise at the time I how good I had it. Nothing else has been the same.

Facts

MOST DEFINITELY

Don’t get disrespectful now

So did nas...gotta deal off of live at the bbq

Its the age of horus. The. Child

@@andregoings4616 what do you mean?

Alister Crowley channeled Aiwas whom was better known as Heru. He told him do as tha'll wilt.Which became the law.Heru is better known as that child. Ushering in Aquarius. Because Osris and isis are his parents. He is the symbolism of that by being the child.HipHop came after that in 79. Which is Goat energy. Artistic energy. Hip hop was born out of rnb jazz classical. As the baby. This vibratory energy is youthful. Look at everybody from JZ to Nas. They still are young. Because the music is youthful. It speaks to the child. InWhich is rebellious. Rock n Roll too.

@@andregoings4616 i would love to converse with you. Are u on Facebook?

Those Are My Peers Lol I'm 31....

I’m 34 dam time flys

If that be the case. Why is Dame having so many financial problems and Jay is richer than ever. This doesn’t add up to me. Where did all the drive and business sense go? Dame’s poor business decisions and lack of vision is the reason things fell apart.

@@sirdanieliii9567 naw. Follow Dame on Instagram and see how prosperous he really is. He doesn't kiss ass so he rubs some people the wrong way which makes them scared to work with him so he creates his own platform.

Jaz O, Sauce Money, and Jay-Z were about to form a group. Jay was the only one who wantes to let Dame manage them. Dame managed Jay, and who of those 3 made it far far?

Yo NIGGAS need to stop FRONTIN!!! Jay wouldn't be where he is, today, WITHOUT Dame. This is a FACT. Dame was puttin in work. He was the mouthpiece. Everybody want to state third opinions, when none of that matters. Facts are facts and you can't change history.

Yeah that nigga Jay wasnt writing his lyrics ever since back then, everything is off the top.

Guy Simmons yeah but his flow was average back then he took big slow flow

Guy Simmons : Diddy handed Jay Z, BIG rhyme book and stash of beats.

@@adamgordon2572 Jay-z rapped about his life through his career didn't even talk guns or on some brooklyn gangsta shit like Biggie

Carlos . Perez : Hence why i don’t respect or like him, Jay-Z blew up after BIG died 💯 when Pac & PUN dissed him he was quiet like a mouse.

On god👽😼

Jay Z has awesome interviews out there!!

Martin Van Liew Rhyme & Reason

MUTETELA CONGOLAIS His dad wasn’t around during his upbringing. Him and his mom lived in a poor area of Stockholm, and QD3 wasn’t treated well by his peers.

He also lived in the "Jungles" in Los Angeles with Actor/ Rapper Avery that was blood character shot gun in boys in the hood that dude was unstable he died in jail was killed by a Satanist. Im glad he gave his life to the lord.

Dewayne Davis I've got a LOT of old vhs tapes I'm working on making digital. Bought this from Sam goody back in the day

This is rhyme & reason. It was in theaters in 97 i think........

Andre Goings can u expound? What are u observing as a distinction between nas and Jay's behavior?.. ( Im asking out of curiosity, not sarcasm or disrespect)

Fasho! Just that Nas is in his old hood sitting in the hallways he grew up in willing to discuss hiphop. To where on the flipside Jay Z is withdrawn and looks like he too busy and has other things to do. I felt Nas is treating it more like an art as opposed to Jay whom is treating it like a business.

Jay owned all his masters and was 50/50 partners with def jam so he was getting crazy bread as well

@Serious , facts 💯👌🏾💪🏾💪🏾👍🏾👊🏾

Dame Dash took Aliyah from Jay Z.. I would feel some kind of way about Dame!!
