“I Jack, I rob, I sin” is also a reference to an expressway in Brooklyn ( Jackie Robinson Xway).But Jay freaked that line on so many levels

How can u make number 1 hits and not understand Jay-z?? To me that just proves his career is an accident. Soulja got signed because of his superman dance off of youtube. I dont hate on anybody in the industry cause they found a way to make money. I get upset when people think that they are for real rappers and talk about nothing. Like soulja talking about he ended bow wow career. WHAT?? Was he serious?? When he comes out with multiple albums that sell then talk. Soulja needs to find a new producer do some homework and learn from the vets now that he is in the game.

Self educate. NAS & Jay spent years honing their craft. Nas used to read the dictionary on the regular. How am I supposed to respect you when you are ignorant and seem to bask in it. Jay Z, NAS, Eminem and other heavyweights have used metaphors and flipped the English language in ingenious ways for years. Soulja Boy has some talent but it is limited by his clear lack of knowledge of even his own genre. Self educate being ignorant is not funny or cute.

I guess he got a F in speech and english class too….throws some D’s on that hoe!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cant stand Soulja Boy…dude is the poster child for No Child Left Behind…his music is pure garbage and it not the direction hip hop should be going in leading into the next generation…maybe if he stared understanding Jigga, he might actually turn into a decent rapper…

Ok we all love money and wanna get paid.. but these days it seems like anyone can pick up a mic and call them self a MC. When their stuff is wacker that wack. IM a true HIP HOP head. I mean its like the music coming out now days dont have no heart. They all about the same stuff and im really getting sick of it. See im from Texas baby land of the trill where we know what real. Soja Boy is not i cant stand his music i feel like i get dum every time i hear a song. The thing i hate the most about is he think he the best. If he wasnt so cocky and was like i do is make dance songs and thats what i like doing. On and dont get me started on wayne he is like the most over rated rapper every. Now if we go back a few years to cater 2 that album was tight. Then something happen i dont know what it was but he started going down hill. This new sound he has it him it dont fit him. but let me get off my soap box and chill. All i am saying is HIP HOP as an art form is slowly dieing.

i dont see y everybody is still hatin on soulja boy. i understand that he might not have the best lyrics or songs but hes still selling records and people still dancing to his songs. i dont see how people can talk so much about soulja boy but when somebody like lil wayne raps and u cant understand what the hell hes talkin bout people label him as a genius. Everbodys got they own opinion and i think people should jus let him do his thang and make money

The greatest thing about haveing money is learning how to help those who have less than you. This is a strength that is quiet and self rewarding..Those who get the money and then find there swagger are laime and pitiful and nine times out of ten look for other admiration to feel good about themselves.They survive off of other pain and suffering like vampires which leds to a life of dropping the soap and oiling down there but cheeks…(Puffy,LilWayne kissing a man in the mouth & calling him Daddy..And I dare them to respond in person

This is absolutely sickening to read. Souljah Boy is a moron! Someone that goes to school and works hard doesnt make jack but some dufus like this gets rich and can’t even form a sentence correctly! His songs are a load of crap. Ugh I think I’m gonna vomit.

YOU HIT THE NAIL RIGHT ON THE HEAD!!!!!!LOL IF SOMEONE A GANGSTA, THUG, GOON, OR DRUGDEALER THEY ARE CONSIDERED “REAL” OR SOME EVEN SAY THEY GOT THAT “SWAGGA” ABOUT THEM. THOSE WHO ARE NOT OR PRETEND NOT TO BE IS LAME???!!! LOL THE FUNNY PART IS I EXPECT THIS LOGIC FROM TEENAGERS OR YOUNGER ADULTS STILL IN COLLEGE OR JUST OUT OF COLLEGE STILL TRYING TO FIND THEIR WAY IN LIFE. WHEN I SEE AND HEAR PEOPLE IN THEIR LATE 20S AND 30S AND EVEN 40S VALIDATING THIS LOGIC. I LAUGH. I DONT HATE ON THEM. LOL I JUST LAUGH BECAUSE I HAVE TO “RESPECT” THEIR OPINIONS TOO

ALL SOULJA BOY DID WAS EXPRESS HIS OPINION. HE DIDNT SAY IT WAS GARBAGE OR ANYTHING NEGATIVE. HE JUST SAID HE DIDNT UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING AND DIDNT GET IT. HE IS HUMAN. THERES A MARKET FOR EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING. HE FOUND HIS. HIS OPINION IS JUST AS VALUABLE AS EVERYONE THAT COMMENTING. LOVE HIM OR HATE HIM HE IS STILL MAKING A HELLUVA LIVING IN THE AREA THAT EVERYONE ON THIS COMMENT BOARD IS “CLAIMING” THAT THEY ARE AN EXPERT IN. EVERYONE DOESNT LIKE HORROR MOVIES BUT THERE IS STILL A HUGE MARKET FOR IT. HORROR MOVIES ARE JUST AS IMPORTANT AS A GENRE AS OTHER MOVIES AND JUST AS LUCRATIVE.

This is the reason why I do not like most of the rappers out today. (notice I didn’t say MC’s) The lyrical content is BS! Most of the best rap songs today is b/c of the beat, not what the rapper is spitting. Even Soulja Boys “Swagger” listen to what he’s really saying nothing to important, definitely thought provoking.

its understandable what soulja boy is sayin,but at the sametime i disagree…its not that hard to understand wat jay is saying he the realest rapper((well one of many))but atleast soulja finally see wat jayz was about and he need to study jayz more becuz he missing out i guess his head is so fuked up wit all dat damn snappin and nonsense he be rappin bout idk..

You have to understand what Soulja is really saying. Jay-Z, is as deep as the pacific ocean. His flows can go over people’s heads sometimes, that’s the beauty of it. That’s why you have to play his music a couple of times before you understand him. Kids are not going to get it right away. Did we ever understand a lot of grown-up things when we were younger?

Ok sun i dunno how old you are but when i was younger i listed to what the grown folks were playing. We all did, we had no choice, and minus the sexual innuendos that were all through these songs of the 50′s, 60′s, 70′s and 80′s i understood every bit of the music that entered my ears. Then you had your Jacksons, Sylvers, Osmonds, New Editions and Musical Youth (Pass the Dutchie) in which the latter was talking about smoking weed and we jammed to it, did i understand it as a kid? Hell No and it wasnt even a subject to question or make statements about like Soulja Boy. You listen to the music and appreciate it. What African Americans do in music is we play our music out and we make music that isnt timeless. You play Atomic Dog, Almost any 2Pac song, Classic Wutang Clan, thats timeless music. White youths understand this. They may listen to Hip Hop/Rap and on the rock side of things may love Hoobastank but trust me they love the music their parents jammed to like AC/DC, Def Lepard and etc and its in their music collection. We’re programmed to quickly forget our past even in music, its pathetic. For a cat like Soulja Boy who doesnt respect or recognize real Hip Hop or rap in the past and dont study fundamentals that would really make him fresh, has a hell of a whole lot to learn…..But probably wont he’s smellin his own sh*t making millions from the garbage he creates…..

anybody who says Jay-Z only raps about materialism and crime doesn’t know shit about rap or hip/hop he in my opinion is on of the rare artist of our time that gives both sides of the story from a urban youth’s mind state. Go pick up reasonable doubt and listen to the remorse in D’Evils or listen to You must love me, or this can’t be life or Soon you’ll understand I could go on and on not to be a dick rider cuz honestly Nas is my favorite rapper but I can tell you as far as the Art in general not just music or hip hop or rap or whatever Jay’s probably the most influential and talented of my generation

I think it’s the other way around. We can understand Jay-Z, but who in the hell understands Soulja Boy? I listen to a lot southern cats, but dude isn’t one of them. If we go back to his first song on his first CD, so then the case is definitely closed!
