AT millennium's end, the hottest rapper in pop music is Jay-Z. Since the release of his quadruple-platinum Vol. II … Hard Knock Life, Jay-Z has had an incredible string of urban radio hits: "Can I Get a …," "Hard Knock Life," "Jigga What, Jigga Who," "Money, Cash" … the list goes on and on. And unlike many of today's most popular rap artists, he built an extensive catalog of hits before making his mark on the charts and enjoys underground respectability as well as mainstream acceptance. Longtime rap fans may remember Jay-Z as an associate of the Jaz, who had a minor hit in 1988 with "Hawaiian Sophie." Before that, he was Shawn Carter, a young man from Brooklyn's Marcy Projects. Though Carter was a promising student, his wild behavior led him to a vocational high More... (Submit New Jay-Z Lyrics) (Submit New Jay-Z Lyrics) you never know | Reviewer: p-slope ------ About the song D'Evils performed by Jay-Z The beat and flow is crazy, but the lyrics Jay is saying could be a form of deception to make it look as if he's describing his life growing up in marcy. Instead it could really be him promoting the devil and living a lifestyle without God. Like every other rapper, he talks of instant gratification, where in the bible God tells us to live by his word and not the flesh, which means to live by Gods wants and not yours. I know it's hard but we got to keep on trying. I know no ones perfect but you can't use that as an excuse. Just repent your sins and ask God for forgiveness(you really got to mean it) and God will forgive you for your mistakes. Remember to pray for guidance and help in whatever situation you're in and God will answer. you mad | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Girls, Girls, Girls performed by Jay-Z I mean this is a classic, ok it does have some degrading lyrics but c'mon if you don't like it just turn it off. And with the Eddie Murphy experience I'm sorry you had to go through that, adults who see the show or listen to the music should be able separate jokes from real life. unbeleaveable | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song 99 Problems performed by Jay-Z i cant beleav sum of thes ppl, lik come on, everyone knos that SOME cops are racist, but SOME black dudes are too. Part of democricy is freedom of speech so Jay can express his views if he wants to. And wut the fuck is that asshole talking about "white people being the chosen race" or wutever the fuck he said who cares if he uses slang, alot of white artist do too People should be judged by there actions not there race. And for all the haters; Im a white dude so its not like im just sticking up 4 my race. Good song. | Reviewer: Mattdem ------ About the song Girls, Girls, Girls performed by Jay-Z Its actually a good song. You're going too deep into it, making it sound political or something, its a lyric. Its about Eddie Murphy Raw, which is comedy, Jay-Z has just used the same lines but made it rhyme, quite clever. If you gotta ridicule Jay-Z then you gotta do the same to Eddie Murphy, they're on the same wavelength. And if you dont like the song, why are you researching the lyrics? To negatively criticise? damn | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song 99 Problems performed by Jay-Z i cant beleav sum of thes ppl, lik come on, everyone knos that SOME cops are racist, but SOME black dudes are too.

COME ON GET SERIOUS | Reviewer: Jonathan ------ About the song D'Evils performed by Jay-Z It is really sad that even when a song like this has the bold lyrics right in front of you, some people will still hold on strong to trying not to believe. IF THE SHOE FITS, WHY YOU STILL TRYING TO PUT ON THE OTHER ONE THAT IS TOO SMALL??? Now, yes they are human, but if you allow spirits to reside in you, then it will come out. Marinate on that.. my thoughts | Reviewer: rosie ------ About the song D'Evils performed by Jay-Z I think whether or not your a Christian ..whether or not you believe the lyrics to be against God... doesn't change the fact that he is still putting this stuff out there...for thousands to listen to and sing along to. Really listen to the lyrics...after that it's your own choice if you still want to listen to "D'evils". Filth and hate that's all | Reviewer: es ------ About the song 99 Problems performed by Jay-Z the only women who wouldn't be offended by this song have extremely low self esteem. For that matter, any human who isn't offended by this filth is no longer human. It's just a song? Not hardly. Just porn. The filthiest generation is at hand. We Are All A little brainwashed | Reviewer: NIB123 ------ About the song D'Evils performed by Jay-Z I have been studying on freemason, the famous freemasons, the illuminati and the purpose. I belive in my heart that alot of people are selling their souls to the devil and some people i believe is being forced. Learn the 33 degrees in freemasons. Jay z, Kanye West, G- unit, nas ect.. alot of people are with this shit. they play a major role in keeping us brainwashed and in this box. Its not only in america The New World Order is world Wide. All we can do is pray for these kind of people and do our own research. Don't be fooled it is all around us. viewer discretion | Reviewer: ace ------ About the song D'Evils performed by Jay-Z I always appreciated reviews on music b/c I love to see what ppl think of what ppl are saying and most of the time they misinterpret it so it’s good to discuss but as far as this song I think that some of you are going in to deep, you’re over analyzing. All he is talking about is the risks of being involved in the game, in the streets, how it can change you, manipulate you which he gives this the name of D'evils (the evils) in his life or early life. Also MC's can relate rap to anything but Jay always had the talent of doing it at the peak performance and makes it sound so well. At the end of the day its only music, nobody is telling any of you to worship Jay, you don’t even have to listen. Some ppl put real life experiences in their music and some don’t we really don’t know who does and who doesn’t, we can assume and almost be sure with Jay b/c he speaks about the same sort of issues but again no one is being forced to listen. I for one don’t turn on the radio b/c im not interested in that down south music. It’s not for me so I just don’t listen, its that simple (BK-ENY) Song Cry | Reviewer: Gabby ------ About the song Song Cry performed by Jay-Z Jay-Z's Song Cry is one of the most emotionally geared song he's done..and this time it isn't about the fame and glory and the streets..its about love and he also shows men that it is ok to say that its there fault but at the same time she's responsible for not being straight out with him..its just a piece of art..this is one of my favorite Jay-Z songs Doubt beyong Reason | Reviewer: Ace ------ About the song D'Evils performed by Jay-Z I always appreciated reviews on music b/c I love to see what ppl think of what ppl are saying and most of the time they misinterpret it so it’s good to discuss but as far as this song I think that some of you are going in to deep, you’re over analyzing.

It’s not for me so I just don’t listen, its that simple (BK-ENY) Jay Z is a hustler not an MC | Reviewer: Al B ------ About the song D'Evils performed by Jay-Z First of Jay Z is a rapper hes not an MC. A rapper wants the style the clothes cars ect while a real hip hop artist is just consentrating on making music first and than to take care of their business but they never sale out. All Jay Z wanted was to hustle and he has used hip hop to do it. Dont take it from me he even says is himself in his songs. Thats blasphemous to any hip hop fan as far as the other things he mentions on money and the Illuminaties ILove hiphop reviewer ( scroll up ) couldnt have said it any better. Jay now that he has made all this money is starting to make some hip hop music but he used hip hop he never did it for the love of it. I dont respect people like that and real hip hop fans understand what I'm saying. I respect him as huslter but not as an Mc cause an Mc his is not. Hip Hop is a lifestyle when you got fake people they just want the style and forget this is life. I am hip hop and that is something that Jay Z cant say and many other suppose artist that are out there. He can buy all the cars houses ect but he cant ever buy the respect of a real hip hop fan. Peace out ! correction | Reviewer: DCA ------ About the song 99 Problems performed by Jay-Z I just so happened to stumble across this conversation because i was trying to make sure he said "zapatos". but for the previous arguement i'm going to have to inform you that jay-z isnt being "sexest" in this song. when he says "a bitch aint one" he is actually reffering to three different situations that have nothing to do with women. one is actually refferring to the K9, the other refferring to a punk he dosnt want to fight (so he's calling him a btch). i dont recall the third but my information comes from an interview with jay-z that can be found on youtube. jus to clear up the stupid "sexest" thing. Devil Word | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song D'Evils performed by Jay-Z I laugh when I hear dumb asses constantly trying to explain evil, instead of recognizing it for what it is. It does not matter what the reason is that someone expresses evil. An evil message still has the same impact. Venom is always venom, and could never be water, whether you recognize it as venom or not. Be fooled and you will inherit the result dumb cunt! omg ! | Reviewer: L. ------ About the song 99 Problems performed by Jay-Z Are you people serious, i don't live in the US so i can't comment on how your police system works but as a girl i can comment on how stupid it is that girls are gettin angry over something so stupid, either listen to the song and enjoy it or turn the station when it comes on. Why is this all such a big deal any way, everyone is given the oportunity to speak their mind so why is it different when a singer or rapper does it, people that pass you in the street are probably 100 times more racist and sexist than this song but you wouldn't even notice so why does it make a difference now, its music if you don't like it no one is telling you that you have to listen to it, stop being such children, it is only when you makes a big deal out of stupid things like this that the hysteria of discrimination occurs, if no one made big deals out of stupid things like this then half the time we wouldn't have a problem, its complaints like this that force us to live in a world were being "politically correct" is more important than being able to speak freely. Hottest Album | Reviewer: Bones ------ About the album The Blueprint performed by Jay-Z The blueprint is hands down one of the greatest album ever to be put out. though Jay put it down on reasonable doubt, the blueprint shows Jay-z growth as an artist. Its like Jay-z got real personal on this album Shut up about samples. | Reviewer: JES ------ About the song Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem) performed by Jay-Z Using samples does not make the song entirely unoriginal in any way. Claiming that is like claiming DJ Shadow's album Endtoducing, is an unoriginal album, and we all sure as hell know that isn't true. So just enjoy a great rap song with a cute little sample that is used rather effectively. Goddamn. umm yea | Reviewer: G-men ------ About the song D'Evils performed by Jay-Z i never comment on the internet better yet rap lyrics but i have to say somthing to all of you people who are saying this song is the devils work.obviously your not from the street and cant relate to what hes saying. "i never prayed to god i prayed to gotti" dosnt means that he worships the devil it means that as a kid growing uo on the streets his biggest influince was irv gotti and not god.i can really relate cuz some of the shit you see in the streets makes you question a higher being ecspesially as a kid.hearing gun shots every day before goin to sleep and noing that that could be someone you know.
