I feel u. Jay-Z is just tryin to tell these young cats that all music aint good music and just because someone calls them self a rapper(jim jones) don’t mean they are one. Bring hip hop music back to life with originallity

it is our fault as the consumer people are making music that sound alike trying to get a quick buck, because nobody buys c.d.’s anymore, so they have to get there money any way they can, if your a actual musician, you know in order to get the best tracks and the best sound, you have to pay top dollars, and if your paying top dollar, and nobodys buying, you the artist are fucked, producer fees, studio fees, record company, managers, and so on and so on have to get there cut, which by the time the artist gets his, he either has very little or nothing left because nobodys buying anything, so i think some artist are forced to go with the quick hit aka ring tone money, cause at least people buy them, so i think everybody complaining, if you want better music, then support the artist

Is just the classic conflict of people who respect the culure of hip hop and try to preserve it and the prostitues in the business who continue to try drag it down.

Jim Jones is a hater cuz he wack!

correction: someone might have autotuned a previous verse of his and it had sounded dope on a new song (they blended him in) I listened again and I don’t think it was an original verse. So please overlook the hypocritical aspect of my previous post..

Haterz. simply put. U don’t like it change the station/track/cd artist you are listening to. Brothas is MAKING MONEY y f that up? Don shit tho because they(Byrdgang n the Family) disrepects him and he doesn’t need the money. Do a Better Autotune Track if everything else is wack. TIGHTEN UP. JAY DID AUTOTUNE TRACKS TOO!!! The feezy?!? (a tad bit lil haterish from the big boss homie) And his shit was dope too. I like autotunes it makes for a good melody and the shit sounds hot cuz half the world was POPPIN CHAMPAGNE don’t act like u wasn’t…be real with yourself first!!

Man, thjose cats arecheating the fans…you can’t do the autotune live, so when these folks(including Lil Wayne) preform live, it sounds like hot azz garbage!! LEARN MUSIC!! Learn how to play, make up your dayum mind if you’re going to rap, or sing and if you’re going to do both, do them well!! The fans are the ones who get screwed in this…

Jim Jones need to quit it. He better stop right now before Jay puts his career to rest… its gonna be (D.O.J). He’s such a clown. Before he come out with saying anything about “D.O.A. he needs to be kissing KILLA’S butt for his fame and selling out the dipset movement. Jim Jones your next, ya dig?

Someone tell Jim Jones to shut up…I’m tired of hearing the “We makin money” line to justify a lack of creativity.

As for Autotune, it was a fad that is slowly diminishing. These cats who are using Autotune found a quick easy way to be uncreative, and this fad will just be replace by another uncreative way of making songs that are catchy and make money.

Jim Jones sounds like Soulja Boy getting mad at Nas for saying Hip-Hop is dead, when it clearly is and has been for a while. Well, I guess Jim Jones actually just looks for any reason to attack Jay. I don’t know, but he seems like the hater to me.

J-Z (snoring0 is a hater. he thinks he’s this big mogul and if he’s not making the money, he feels no one should. It’s all about greed and egos and as anyone can tell you. J-Snore has a big ego and a smaller——HJ-Z is not one of the Black Elite that he thinks he is….I mean come on…He brainwashed that little gurl b…..lol He’s a weak azz, typical you know what…..Hell_ —his music is as weak as Diddy’s……..
