He's an overrated rapper but he's not wack .He's a good buisness man (like Puffy)but U can't compare him to neither of the best rapper(2pac,Biggie.NaS,Rakim).He maybe had alot of commercial succes but that doesn't mean a rapper is good.Look at Illmatic not alot of commercial succes but one of the best album.Yeah he switched to a more pop style,but you've got to look a the best of Jay-Z .
There's 2 kind of critics

-He sucks ,he's bad 'he's commercial and bla bla
-He's the f*cking best rapper alive ouhhhhhhhhhhh
4 people who saying he sucks ...Dude stop acting tough and go back play with your barbie
4 Those who say :"HE'S THE FUCKING BEST "Did you listen to another rapper to real legend before saying someone is the best try to listen to everything

My point is he's overrated but he's not bad and I have no problem for putting it in the top 10 (I'm kind of good ) but #1 ...NO

MTV is wrong,Jay-Z is not the best

Poser rapper who attemts to act "hardcore" to sell records but is really just a bitch that entered the scene to make money and pimp hoes.

50 cent and eminem are the shizzle but that guy Jay-Z is just a poser...

Went from riding Nas's dick to saying he wasn't shit, then breaking down on the radio from ether to Blueprint 2 to The Black Album to saying he was 'retiring' to going on tour with a child molester

Fiesta, fiesta.... molesta, molesta... confessa, confessa...
