I still like /get that line:
“Hail Mary to the city your a Virgin,
and Jesus cant save you life starts when the church ends,”

don’t get that line.

It’s the same in Miami… AT firs I was like “oh this again” but seconds after pushing play, I could tell that this one would be special…

This song gets played out like crazy not to say i dont like it cuz when i first got my copy of BP3 i put that shit on repeat. I just cant wait till i dont have to hear it every 5 seconds and can go back listen and appreciate it all over again.

People sayin this song is getting played out, might be right. But get over it. This song is a CLASSIC. Im not even from NY, and even I got goosebumps watching him perform it at the World Series. I cant even imagine how New Yorkers felt seeing that performance.

This performance was good too. Alicia never disappoints. Oh and did yall see Neyo lookin like a homo doin the little orchestra hand movements? lol

@-EATINGRETARDS-You do know that while you were thinking of all of that, jay was accomplishing yet another milestone in his career, right? So what did YYYYOOOOUUUU get accomplished last night? lol!!! Yall need to just accept the fact that dude is truly untouchable. Beans probly couldnt even get in the building, so i guess he stayed in philly to make another pointless diss track. Big up to jay and alicia keys for being in LA and having everybody sing ’NEW YORK"! hahhah!! thats whats up!

you are familiar with the reply button, yes?..pretty sure i didnt knock jays business acumen.. one of the smartest businessmen in hip hop history. you’re probably 15?..16?..clearly you missed my point. which is, jay now puts out corporate rap. he is “the man”..& not in the good way. he is more business than rap, he is getting his paper for sure, way more than u and me..so good for him. he is just plastic, boring, bland, corporate rap now.. Tupac never would have let this happen to himself. i respect the real..jay is smart, untouchable, accomplished, rich…but not real to me anymore. big up to this version of jayz tho, i guess

youre right, instead tupac let suge manipulate him to the point that it cost him his life. i guess thats better right, bc like he didnt sell out?

eatingretards2 months ago
ha, well its all conjecture since Tupac is dead..he was 25 when he died, probably a little manipulated but what major media star @ age 25 isnt in some way?..even to the point of death. its not fair to compare the 2 but Tupac is my all time favorite & seems like jay is everyones current favorite.. idc who it is, but when youre using your image to sell budweiser how are you any different from MC Hammer rapping in taco bell commercials in 91?…really

@-EATINGRETARDS-Well put in response to my reply to ur post. I mos def respect ur point of view. peace.(btw-im not familiar with the ‘reply’ button..please school me on that!)
@-THAGODSPEAKS-you said “This kat coon’n with a bow tie on” Damn homie! Now its considered cooning to wear a bow tie? You mean to tell me the whole nation of islam is cooning? W.E.B DuBois was cooning? Oh i forgot..this is hip hop…jay should have wore some jeans down by his ankles with some timbs, and fondled alicia keys ass on stage….then he wouldnt have been ‘cooning’…i guess he would have been keeping it real. geez. Sometimes i wonder who the REAL coons are.
