Caligula movie part 2 Jay-Z

Caligula movie part 2

Jay-Z has ignored The Game, Beanie Sigel, Peedi Crakk and even MC Hammer. He has barely made mention of them even though they all hold some serious weight in the game. He schooled Drake on Light Up, where he said other rappers were merely starting silly rap feuds trying to distract you. Even Nicki Minja subliminally dissed Lil Kim to death on songs like Romans Revenge with nary a mention of Kims name. And, now that Kim has caligula movie part 2 fire with Black Friday, Nicki still has nary a mention. I suspect Sun Tzu would be proud. What is this new phenomena? Is lyrical battling dead or is this something a new? As rap has grown up a bit, it appears that the rappers have opted not to engage in the ways of old. Jay-Z is 41 now, Nicki Minaj is pushing her brand to a pop audience and frankly, cats just dont want to give their haters a stage to stand on. So, it is highly unlikely that there will be any more 50 Cents birthed in our lifetimes. This new Jay-Z isnt going to say, Im about a dollar, what the fk is 50 Cent to his millions of minions. Hell certainly sublime them, but engage directlynah. Perhaps these backdoor wranglings are good for the game. Once upon a time, rap battles were a genuine clash of titans, not a vital point in somebodys marketing plan. When Nas and Jay-Zs beef came to the surface, there were soft jabs and subliminals in a number of songs before it bubbled over. KRS-Ones war against MC Shan and The Juice Crew was established in a real place, in a real time. Nowadays, every silly thing sets somebody off into a war of words and the public sees it as silly and juvenile. The Hip-Hop lover sees it as another act of immaturity from people that are probably too old and too established to be acting this way. Speaking of the Hip-Hop Lover, when was the last time there was a beef that actually had anything to do with Hip-Hop? You, know lyrics. Rick Ross vs 50 Cent was entertaining, but the rap phase of the beef fizzled out after round one. After that, it went into a whole new level of debauchery and controversy with 50 throwing everything at Ross, but the kitchen sink. 50 vs Kanye was a war of sales. Jay-Z vs Beanie was so personal, it pained fans of Rocafella Records. And Nicki Minaj and Lil Kim would be so much better if the two simply collaborated on a record. And, then there are the underground beefs that nobody seems to care about too much. The point of this entire piece is to say that it is definitely time for unity. Sure, it sounds corny, but I believe this year has been a strong indication that this is the path that will lead us to the Hip-Hop Promise Land. Its already here in many ways. Kanye working with Drake, who works with Jay-Z, caligula movie part 2 works caligula movie part 2 Nicki who works with Lil Wayne, got out of jail. But, it isnt limited to the commercial rappers. Look at Big, Curreny, Yelawolf and Wiz Khalifa. They are all working together in their own way, which has galvanized their base of fans without murdering each others career. Slaughterhouse is further proof of this. Joe Budden and Royce Da 59 had a beef at one point and, in joining forces with Joell Ortiz and Crooked I, they got Eminems attention.
