Jay-Z is, in my opinion, one of the greatest rappers alive. On the streets of 'project' he was called jayhovawhich is what the jews call God i.e. he is refered to the 'God of rap' on da street. Was closely associated with Biggy small and is one of the best lyricists in the wake of his death. Teamed up with Dameon Dash to create Rocafella, his own label, which has been a huge success. Claimed that the Black album was going to be his last and that he would retire. The next year he makes a remix of the Black Album's best songs with Linkin Park, the gay boys. The Blueprint is Hov's best album, bar non and the Dynasty is pretty good as well. Long Live Hova!

A skillful MC with questionable street credibility.
He has skills, no doubt and industry didn't see it until 1996 and Reasonable Doubt was released.
Jay-Z's street credibility is damaged by these considerations:
1) The girl that he was with before he blew up was extremely ugly.("Song Cry") If he slanged coke and was big time hustler, this wouldn't make sense. Maybe he liked her point of view? probably not because Jay is a superficial MOFO.
2) Un Rivera's deposition, I have read it, suggest that Rivera is not 100% certain (even unclear) as to who actually stabbed him. In the deposition he is extremely docile. If you read any deposition of cross-examination, this is never the case. Often they will be extremely hostile and reluctant to answer any questions. Un was paid by Jay, but for what?? To say, "my name is Un and Jay stabbed me~!" Plus, Jay-z plead guilty and asked for a deal like a RAT.
3) Un was his first court case. He never went to court before this nor jail.
Look, you have problem if you doubt everything they tell you on TV. But you are just as stupid if you believe everything that these RAPPERS are telling you.
This goes out the Tupac, Biggie, Nas, 50 cent, Snoop Dogg also. They even admitted that they don't do shit that they say on their music (except Snoop cause he is such a stoner). Why is it that I hear people saying that Jay-Z was a crazy gangster/dealer/murderer? Its garbage~!
Vast majority of gang bangers from the 80's are now in the streets as bums (the cracked out ones) that you laugh at. Go ask them if they knew Jay-Z back in the days.

The greatest rapper of all time, without a doubt. Made history with his first album, Reasonable Doubt, and made even more history with his last album, The Black Album, Hov has become the most respected M.C in the game. When you hear of Jay-Z, you can immediately think of greatness.

Jay-Z is a very good rapper, not a lyracist. Got worked by Nas over and over. In some cases a Biter not a Writer, rips off a lot of lyrics, Otherwise a rap legend.

Got the whole industry mad at me I said
Then B.I. said, "Hov' remind yourself
nobody built like you, you designed yourself"
I agree I said, my one of a kind self
Get stoned every day like Jesus did
What he said, I said, has been said before
"Just keep doin your thing," he said, say no more
