Jay-Z: Biter not a Writer

[EminemBase]

Most people have seen this, I have ages ago too.

But Jay-Z is one of the biggest biters in history. Bites styles, lyrics, images. He's a total clone. And he's ridiculously overrated. Really annoying.

For anybody who doubts so:

I know I know, it's just 'homages'. Well you can choose to call 6 minutes worth of copied lines (that's a lot) 'homages'. I call them bitten rhymes lol. He only claims they're homages when caught out.

That's just a fraction of what he's bitten too and sometimes he'll change a bit of the rhyme as if it's original. No wonder he doesn't write anything down. Has got everybody else's rhymes in his head.

[slimsoxshady]

well he's definitely not a writer

[KieranLewisEM]

Smh can clearly see in that video he steals lyrcis and etc and bites of other artists

[EminemBase]

well he's definitely not a writer

I know he's not. Brags about never writing his lyrics.

Doesn't need to. Has everybody else's in his head.

Funny thing is his best record was released when Biggie was still alive.

[slimsoxshady]

good video, whoever made it...i didn't know about all those lines.

[TheKanza]

jigga repeats some of his own lyrics aswell

[DrRapid]

It used to get rather annoying but now I don't give, his albums are still

Just like the last time this exact same topic was made (with the same video) ima say; For every line Jay-Z bites, he's got another 3 verses of his own.

[Slimm]

'I'm not a biter i'm a writer for myself and others, i say a big verse i'm only bigging up my brother'.

...So what lmao. That's no good reason. He may well have but that doesn't excuse non-stop biting.

I'm sure people would accept that if Em bit lines every other track. Like fuck they would.

[AliJack]

They would.

Yeah I already aknowledged that he claims they're homages. If you'd like to call those 6 minutes worth of verses 'homages' that's up to you. To me the they're very obviously bitten.

This is also obvious by the fact that he often slightly changes a word or two in the verse as if it's new. He's a plagiarist and he only plays the 'homage' card when obviously caught out.

Nas put it best with:
"How many Biggie rhymes gonna come out yo fat lips"

They would.

Well maybe 'they' would but I wouldn't.

Not good enough for me. Pagiarists are the scum of the artworld to me.

[AliJack]

lol even Nas was inspired by some rhymes to make his own.

"With so much drama in the L.B.C. its kinda hard bein' Snoop D-O-Double-G"
"With so much drama in qbc, it's kinda hard being escobarro. Elderado red, sippin dom out the bottle"
