Antifar posted... The internet seemed both perplexed and humored by Jay-Zs comments, particularly his belief that capitalist is some illegitimate or derogatory term invented to bring down the Black community.Wtf --- https://i.imgur.com/OlKhtDy.gif https://i.imgur.com/ZtoMK5o.gif https://i.imgur.com/74NcmdK.gif https://i.imgur.com/UOQ9An8.mp4 ...

Think he just doesn't like the negative connotations associated with the word. He put in all this work to get to where he is and doesn't want people to cast a negative light on him for it. --- You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending. -Misattributed to CS Lewis ...

I can kind of understand where he's coming from in that we are finally at a point where black people have finally started to gain more money and power and being hit with a backlash seems a bit troubling since this country has been fine propping up white businessmen and women for so long. But.....a lot of stuff Jay's been saying and doing loses me. So I get what he's saying but his actions don't really mesh well with it. Also Ether sucks soo bad. It's aged like milk. I get why it's held in such high regard historically but man I hate it. Beat goes hard tho. --- PoW '09 Topic of the Year Co-Winners (Rada and Texy) FFD ... Copied to Clipboard!

This is why money is scary. You go through all the shit Jay-Z went through and still sonehow end up thinking some extremely stupid shit like this. Is it safe to call it victim syndrome when you're literally considering yourself a victim for being called out for getting rich lol. Bruh, go cry in your money. I like Jay-Z too. This just is some goofy shit. I'll be bumpin 4:44 next week though lol. Dude literally put a song on there teaching people how to game capitalism instead of wasting their money. Which is good advice when those 2 things are the options and it's a dope ass song. But jusus christ, that money really seeps deep into your brain sometimes. --- Name checks out "I don't wanna be the toughest, I just keep it 100 and think nothin of it"- Black Thought ...

Art from all centuries prove that people were never fine with this. It's just the people in power convince you everyone is fine with it so that you become complacent and feel outcasted for thinking otherwise. The voice of the capitalists at the top were way louder than anyone elses before the internet. They were the ones that could afford to be heard. We have people like Bob Marley and everyone supporting him in earlier art. And further back than that but that's when I start losing specifics real quick. --- Name checks out "I don't wanna be the toughest, I just keep it 100 and think nothin of it"- Black Thought ...
