By September 2008 in The Empire Strikes Back of Vibe Magazine article written by Sean Fennessy with illustrations by Rik Lee on pages 134 and 135 they list 450 songography from Jay Z. That was 08 so I can only imagine how many songs he got now. When you see the list you'll realize just how many times Jay has popped up on a features and soundtracks outside of just his own albums. The point is to constantly suggest Jay lacks artistic passion and cares nothing for Hip hop year after year after year almost every month is ridiculous. THAT'S the point.

The point you missed is that Jay’s original fanbase and what set him up for ultimate success, was black folks. Starting from those dope fiends he pushed crack to in order to fund his label, to his business partners starting Roc Nation, to the people that supported Reasonable Doubt. It’s fine he’s an elitist now. All we’re saying is it’s black people whose backs he stood on to get to where he’s at now. I say this with Jay in my top 5 of all time.
