Jay-Z is without a question ever. To be number #1 for 7 years is a level that probally only Michael Jackson has experianced. But un-like Mike Jay went out on top. In addition to that he was hotter than all rappers without even writting down a single letter of his songs. To have Multiple Albums go platinum without writting a single word of his music alone has to make him number one. Doesn't it?

One of the best hip hop artists, known for his feud with nas. Recently Jay-z and nas alledgedly squashed there beef as well as jadakiss and 50 cent (after kiss' song called checkmate where he brutally cuts up 50). Jay-z was friends with biggie but it's absolutly ludacris to say he was best friends. One thing that made me mad is Jay-z taking the name for his album "blueprint" from Krs one. Black album was a decent album, for quality of lyrics, id say jay-z and nas are pretty much even but for better flowing music i'd say nas takes it.
However I am still a strong believer that jay-z may have had a ghost writer in the past. and jay-z is DEFINATLY NOT the best rapper to live, various artists could have beat him in a "rap battle" such as Canibus, and probably a good number of unknown south african rappers.
jay-z is ill but nas is better

this is for # 28, u kall ur self "zeebo tha barber" or sum shyte lyke that. u r fucking dum. u say he only raps about money? try listening to renegade, moment of clarity, or bk's finest.
here is a REAL smaple of Jay-z rap:
" I had to hustle, my back to the wall, ashy knuckles
Pockets filled with a lot of lint, not a cent
Gotta vent, lot of innocent of lives lost on the project bench
Whatchu hollerin? Gotta pay rent, bring dollars in
By the bodega, iron under my coat, feelin braver
Doo-rag wrappin my waves up, pockets full of hope
Do not step to me - I'm awkward, I box leftier often
My pops left me an orphan, my momma wasn't home
Could not stress to me I wasn't grown; 'specially on nights
I brought somethin home to quiet the stomach rumblings
My demeanor - thirty years my senior
My childhood didn't mean much, only raisin green up
Raisin my fingers to critics; raisin my head to the sky
Big I did it - multi before I die (nigga)
No lie, just know I chose my own fate
I drove by the fork in the road and went straight"
