Jay-Z Is A Swagger Jacker

Postby Xray » Nov 20th, '08, 17:44

If your a Jay-Z fan don't even watch the video, you'll be majorly disappointed. As much as I hate to admit, he is a Swagger Jacker. In this video, Cam'Ron reveals the shit he jacked, most of his shit is biggie stuff. "How much of Biggie's rhymes is gonna come out your fat lips?" <--Nas - Either.

*Ether

And yeah that's been out for a long long while. Probably since '05 or early '06? During the heat of their "beef" Cam'ron had his people put pretty much all of Jay's lyrics to the test and see how much shit was his and how much shit was sampled/bitten.

Yeah my bad about the spelling, and yeah I've actually seen this video last year, but saw it again today and just posted, cause it is interesting. I don't think I'd ever again respect him as much. :zipped:

I personally always thought Jay was VASTLY overrated, and if you listen to Biggie as much as I do it's obvious where Jay get's 70% of his "inspiration". He didn't even try to hide it. Different beat, different subject, different tone, and suddenly Jay is the best rapper alive using lyrics that he could have never dreamed of putting together. When it comes to NYC heavyweights it's Nas all day.

I'm sure he would have had it not been made so long ago.

Jay is both. He completely jacked Biggie's swagger and then he just plain bites people's lyrics.

The sad part is that HIS ORIGINAL material is why he's overrated as fuck. The shit he bit is why most of his shit was hot. He stole the vibe those lines created and made it make him money. He's a fucking loser.

You know I used to look up to Jay, thought after watching that video I’m convinced he a fake! I understand the biggy thing cuz jay and biggy were friend’s and some of the line’s I just put down to pure homage thought you can really see how he take’s lines where someone would say "play" and change it to "jay"

word. Theres a huge diffrence between bitin and paying homage. If jigga bit lines he would do it from underground artists cos whos gunna know? To say you honestly belive he bit lines from Eminem etc is fucking stupid because it sticks out like a sore thumb when you hear it. Its just paying homage. Em does it,Nas does it,Everyone does it. and all this is comming from a not so big Jay fan.



yeh, say a year ago id be in sajjads corner but i know more now and its homage.

biting is doin it were you dont want anyone to know and want them to think you wrote it. jay doesnt do that at all he says in a track on the black album "and if i bite a biggie line im just biggin up my brother" he clearly states he is biting a biggie line to pay homage to his freind.
