Title: Jay-Z doesn't right down any of his songs?
Post by: Doggystylin on March 05, 2003, 07:17:28 PM
if thats true, thats fuckin nuts, if he isnt bullshittin then damn just for that he should be up there in the top 3 of all time cuz he has some of the sickest lines and some dope verses and to think he doesnt right those down is nuts.

LoL @ NIK putting on "Anti Jay-Z gimmick"

He said it many times, and according to his Roc-comrades and others, it's true.
He even does most of his verses in one take.. remember "One minute man remix" where he challenged $50 that he'd get it one take ??

No, he doesn't write down his lyrics. He just memorizes them in his head and records them.

Yeah, atleast most of the time, I saw this interview kinda thing about him a year ago, and he said back when he was young and started rapping, lines would pop up in his head and he wouldnt have time to grab a pen and paper, so he got used to memorizing them, and straight freestyling.

The legendary Biggie Smalls was the same way, and we all know Young Hova is trying to be just like Mr. Notorious.

Exxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxactly.  He wants to be biggie.  That's why he does everything he can to BE biggie, and connect himself with biggie.  I mean, his last album featured a song where biggie talks to him in a dream?

yea, that's what JAY does, u can even hear on some of his latest trackz how nearly freestylish the shit comes out....the most amazing thing is that he mannages to maintain conceptual focus on tracks without writing them down tho'.

1.You're dumb for believing him
3.Jay-Z is a ugly ass liar

Somewhat more reliable source MTV today:

Durst was clearly impressed with Jay-Z's skills on the mic, especially Jay's gift for not writing down his lyrics before he records them.

"He is unbelievable!" Durst informed his fans on the Web site. "He didn't write down one single word. He just listen(s) to the beat over and over while scheming in his brain, then, only moments later, Jay got on the mic and blasted out an amazing ryme (sic)."


Now who's dumb ??

Word, also, Marley Marl said in The Source that Jay-Z is the most talented artist he has ever worked with... and that says a lot.

Yes, recently Jay Z worked with Limp Bizkit and Fred Durst said that "he goes over the beat 100 of times and just goes from there"

And you guys are exagerating this extremely....all it is that his mind moves faster then his pen...

I just wanna know how is Jay Z bitin' B.I.G. because he doesn't write down his lyrics. That is tha most stupid thing i've ever heard. Memorizing your lyrics is a natural talent. C'mon y'all need to stop hatin' on good emcees and talk about tha shit ones.

Actually, Fred Durst isn't more credible than NIK.  Fred likes to lie on his webpage.  Recently he's been stalking Britney Spears, saying they dated, broke up, etc. and Britney said "I hardly even know him", now they've got videos of him putting cards in her mail box like 20 different times, etc.  He's put up stuff like "She's the most special thing that ever happened to me" and "What we share is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen" and all this crap.

Yah, but that Britney-affair is just a media-jippo.
He wouldn't lie about the Jigga-thing though, unless he's paid for it.. (LoL)

i disagree. its about structuring your verse, making it rhyme and flow.

why do you think jigga has the dopest flow out there?.....cos its sounds all natural and shit. just listen to 'friend or foe'.

you know how many songs jigga done like this? that makes him goat status alone for me.

You guys who believe this bullshit are stupid...Oh, so I guess Jay-Z never wrote a song down in his whole career...LMAO...Were talking about the same guy who came out with "Reasonable Doubt"...I mean, if Snoop said it, I'd believe it, cuz Snoop comes off simplistic and meaningless most of the time in his rhymes, but come on ya'll...We're talking about a former lyricist here...Plus, why would anyone not write down their verses when they know it could come out 10X better if they did? That's just plain dumb to me...PeACe
