Best Jay-Z line

[Pres7]

Never really a Jay Z fan unless the track was produced by Premo.. So I would have to qoute "D'Evils"

"I never prayed to God, I pray to Gotti"

thats just about all I myself can think of right now..

[Chief]

most them songs are huge b.i.g tracks everyones heard... it's not as though he dug up b.i.g's coffin and stole some lines written in his notepad and tried claim them as his own.

[PLANT]

fuck if your leg broke, bitch
hop up on your good foot

[westkoastanostra]

he has too many great lines, i can't choose

[Mac 10 †]

he has too many great lines, i can't choose

[da_notorious_mack]

he has too many great lines, i can't choose

[Meho]

he has too many great lines, i can't choose

[Sanford - V. President of the Dangerous Crew Movement]

he has too many great lines, i can't choose

cause yall dont know what artists nigga bit off.   

[Elevz]

even if Jehovah witness, bet he'll never testify <= I somehow always loved that one line from D'Evils

[H. Chad]

'like short sleeves i bare arms' - brooklyn's finest - greatest line of all time imo
'I'd rather die enormous than live dormant' - can i live

my fav from kingdom come would be 'the bruce wayne of the game, have no fear, when you need me just throw your roc signs in the air' - kingdom come - its corny as hell but quite clever

yeah it really does consolidate what probably constitutes the majority of Jay z's bitten lines, which means the other 90-95% of his output isn't bitten

BUT still it's one thing to bite half a line to rhyme it with something new but he would take a whole couplet. he'd spit a line borrowed from someone else(which is okay...)...but then he rhymes it with the same line the person he borrowed it from rhymed with it(which is not cool) like that give it to me shit where he takes that WHOOOOLE biggie STANZA like several couplets in rapid succession "system/diss em/relation/be chasin/replace em" he takes that whole shit with no switch up, completely jacked it. and he did that me and my girlfriend whack ass shit biting 2pac who didn't like him...LMAO 98% of his best lines are from reasonable doubt. it's true, even I have the album. but either way, to me it's not the borrowing lines but borrowing whole couplets and stanzas: jacker. Fuck this dude.

Best Jay line I've ever heard, of course from Reasonable Doubt

from friend or foe:

you draw, better be picasso, y'know the best
cause if this is not so, ah, god bless

peace-T

"n!ggaz wake up on my dick, eat some breakfast first"

[Nasty Nem]

"stares get exchanged, then the fifth come out
tough guy dissapear then the bitch come out"

- ignorant shit

"in a race to a BILLION, got my face to the CEILING
got my KNEES on the FLOOR, PLEASE LORD, forGIVE HIM
has he lost his RELIGION, is the gred gon' GET HIM
he's having heaven on earth, will his wings still FIT HIM?

- corporate takeover

"your bank versus mine, if you ballin then what i'm doin
can't be defined"

- brooklyn


+fresh+ like +Mannie+ be, chain like anti-freeze
shoebox full of cash, dealer man hand me ki's
pantries full of arm & hammer, don't take nancy drew to see
what it do, i'm a damn g

- the prelude

one of the greatest verses in hip hop history

I'm so far ahead of my time, I'm bout to start another life
Look behind you, I'm bout to pass you twice
Back to the future and gotta slow up for the present
I'm fast, niggaz can't get past my past
How they propose to deal with my perfect present?
When I unwrap "The Gift & the Curse" in one session
Ain't no livin person can test him
Only two restin in heaven can be mentioned in the same breath as him
Seven straight summers, critics might not admit it
But nobody in rap did it, quite like I did it
If you did it I done it before, you get I had it
Got mad at it and don't want it no more
And that goes for everything from flippin that raw
Flippin whores, flippin vocal chords, don't get it twisted
Get it right, did different, did it better, did it nice
Did the impossible then did it twice
