Thanks for this tip. I just Googled his name and his website came up right away. It looks interesting so far I interacted with him and he responded right away. He is a genius
Investors should be cautious about their selections and money management, especially during inflation. Attaining high yields in this recession is only possible under the supervision of a professional or trusted advisor like Mr Zachery Micah Demers
The adviser I'm in touch with is ‘Zachery Micah Demers'. His strategy works hence my result. he provides entry and exit point for the securities I focus on.
26 years ago they told him he was garbage, today he’s considered the best rapper in the world. Moral of the story: don’t listen when people trash you, just prove them wrong.
@Antwan Barnes ....I hear you there. Same thing here. NAS is one of my favorites. Illmatic is definitely in my personal top 5. But it is NOT as good as Reasonable Doubt from my vantage point. If Illmatic is brought up I can't really argue against it though. Personal taste is what it comes down to.
Wow!!! Fast forward to 20:15 and that’s ME. Jay had a concert in Cape Town, South Africa back in 2006, and I just had to be there. I even made a t-shirt for myself 😂😂😂 Best concert experience ever
The standards in the 90s were different I’m not saying U won’t make it but the sound was different and labels only wanted to play it safe with people they could indefinitely crank out multi platinum albums. You could see it in every artist
That how I'm trying desperately to move forward Mr. Carter is the king of the culture ( hip hop) and I really pray 🙏 to my ancestors some one 🙏 please tell him to text me so he can school me on investments or joining his team 🙏
10 Grammys was insane back then! Now you have Billie whatever getting like 9 in a single night for whispering songs her brother wrote... It’s truly a shame that real talent and hard work isn’t recognized anymore like HOV. #RESPECT
Jay-Z got me through alot growing up in my teen years and late 20's just dropping jewels in his music made me understand that he's not just a rapper, he's very enlightened, awakened and intelligent..I am not surprised by his success, he was destined for greatness and helped many people listening...I was street smart and wasn't even in the streetd lol but I was home listening to EVERY ALBUM...yes 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
i find it sad that at the start of this video you can see how much love everyone has for albums and projects and just the package as a whole. the expression and artistic approach early rappers took with their albums will never be replicated. singles are cool, but nothing beats listening from 1-12 and feel like you just watched a movie.
@@silentsage2462 not a fan of kendrick. as much as i think hes a good artist, what he writes about just doesnt relate to me so its hard for me to fully understand the amazement with him. His projects are well made etc i just think im to white and not educated enough to the oppression that went on over there therefore its not as impactful to me.
And your whole point was that artists essentially don’t put enough creative effort into how the formulate their albums. I can’t think of another rap artist from any decade that is more creative then Kendrick is in terms of his album concepts and the effort it takes to see them through.
@@silentsage2462 it doesnt, which is why i stated he was good, twice but i will never sit here and say im a massive fan or influenced by something that has had no impact on me or that i enjoy something that im completely ignorant to. not saying kendrick isnt a great artist but i personally don't put him in my top 20 because his targeted audience isnt me and i relate to nothing he says. nothing wrong with anything ive said either. his first 3 albums were talking about issues he faced in his community, which i wont sit here and pretend to know anything about. whats worse, is die hard fans of artists loving songs and repeating them without knowing any of the history or meaning behind it. Much love.
@Johnny St.Louis I don’t think so. It would be very poor marketing, if so. The world would have saw through that at least a decade ago if he was just saying that to sell records.
I've been following him since hard knock life. The man literally has done it all and still doing more. And of course he changed everybody changes but it's what you change into. Jay progressed.
Jay never stood on his own he always stood with others, but kept it business and not personal, if you was moving you thrived with him, if you was comfortable you got left behind. Thats how mentors and bosses role.
I have been rocking with this man since Roc La Familia officially, and then I went back and listened to all of his prior albums. This man is a legend; Feelin' it, regrets, never change, guess who's back, song cry, party life.. the list goes on and on for me, thank you HOV
Jay-Z hands down have some of the best rap songs ever to hit the Mainstream Music Scene..I mean they come to life and you feel the Spirit of every word being recited over them beats....
His story seems like something out of a fiction novel. Truly. From having reaching the pinnacle of success with his third album, creating a label with iconic artists, creating businesses that amassed him a BILLION dollars, and marrying a bombshell and world class talent wife. I can’t believe JayZ isn’t talked about incessantly 🤯
Groundbreaking individual. HipHop's first billionaire, first induction into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, tie for most GRAMMY nominated artist in history and most GRAMMY wins by a HipHop artist, the only post 2000 HipHop album to be inducted into the US Congress Arts Archive with "the Blueprint" and the list goes on. More importantly tho he stayed true to his character and the words he spoke in his debut album. From never dumbing down and staying lyrically ahead of the rest, still at 51 to his REFORM alliance and his bid to challenge drug laws, this man is ONE of a kind. One of one, period. Young HOV the GOAT, Shawn Carter the King!
the blue print has to be one of the most important albums that came into my life age 16 it gave me ambition unfortunatly id already been "gangsterfied" buying life after death age 10 crack commandments had already skewed my path.But Jay z helped give me the right type of mindset that led to success . the black album came at a dark time for me and gave me strength and the blue p 2 got blasted loud!
Hooooold up. You act like The 10 crack Commandments was a lie? It was literally street truth. Let's not act like Jay didn't have rhymes about selling crack. Did you post this because you're thinking Biggie was a terrible influence or just the fact that those type of songs may have misconstrued some youth?
@@akwwalker8782 biggie was a rapper who rapped about his struggles. jay z a messenger for all the hustlers and ambitious peoples. to me jayz earlier music is scripture. he literally gave us the blueprint.
It's still amazing how one take a single step forward and keep taking more steps forward without falling back or looking backwards... Exceptional grace and outstanding talent manifestation!! Go Hov
Mr. Carter is such an inspiration and this video was such a great rundown of some of his legacy. His charitable contributions and foundation are also key components of his success.
Nice very well put together video. I realized i grew with jayz since i was in the 5th grade with a hard knock life. I remember my friends mom took us to taco bell in her car and the song was playing on the radio. It was hard growing up.
I can literally watch this all day, every day. Hov the GOAT, the master artist, master rapper, a MASTER business, man, a pop culture icon. So inspirational, makes me want to grind and hustle hard as shit!😤
This is a great documentary. Great bro. 15:28 for those who thought Jay played Dame, here you can hear this mans game plans from what he said. He thought he owned Jay, calling Jay his staff, his biggest artist. Nah, Jay was too smart for him and too good to him to even be with him that long. That nigga planned on milking Jay like a cow.
True and most of these new rappers especially Southern rappers have the nerve to say jayz is overrated he has way more classics than any of new these rappers in the 20 years you probably won't even remember half of these new rappers
Jay has deff come a long way and must be in the top 5 conversations always. He may not be my #1 rapper but he most deff is in my top 5 . An he has gone a long way longer then any rapper that I have grown up listening to. An has become the 1st rapper to reach billionaire status
Now I get why j is successful, he always put the best he could in all his albums because he thought they wer his last...I guess he just puts the best in everything he does knowing it could be the only time he be doing it he's always thinking ahead of his time
One thing I got from this is dash was never wrong his initiation is amazing. The he wasn’t wrong about a lot of people he just had a aggressive way of explaining it but as humans we need to learn to listen to all ways of expression
I like how Jay z did like 10 different album covers at one spot probably in one day. Now that is a true hustler!!!!! And it is even more hard-core if he didn't even have songs yet to fill those albums yet. You can't knock the hustle!!!!!!!!
28:25 I was at the same club in Fayetteville NC on Brag when J-COLE & others were doing Rap Battles. Jay-Z & his team of Security hopped out, & walked in the Club. They had deep interest in J-COLE.

Hi @Growingpains, from the way you've done the vídeo.. The keenly detailed compilation.. You could tell that you really appriciate what he does.. And what you do as well.. Kind Regards, from Mozambique
I'm so happy that Jay-z has reached the success that he has. Beside every good man is a woman, whether it's his wife, mother, grandma, sister, aunt, etc. I love to see a man change and become the best he can be, father, brother, son, etc. Now that's he's a Billionaire I hope that he invest in his community and help to create generational wealth for others...pay it forward.
Jay z was playing chess frfr …it’s a reason why lebron don’t sign long term deals because the salary cap goes up every season…. So teams would try to lock a franchise type player in with a 5 plus year contract knowing damn well that player only loses money that way …. Jay was only signing 1 or 2 album joint deals witch means after every album we gotta renegotiate that was fucking genius for a NEW YORK rapper at that time…. He kept saying This my last album 😂😂😂 that man was 3 steps ahead of everybody
@@johnconstantine5548 As black people we’ve been defined by our race from time we first set foot on the North American Continent. The reason it’s relevant to point out his race is Black people have Historically been disenfranchised throughout the History of America so to see a Black man from the Hood become a Billionaire is definitely worthy of mentioning his race.
yeah even early on the way he thought, the way he acted more business like and professional, that made him stand out. he surrounded himself with guys that knew how to make deals.
It's called grinding and good investments and finessing people in the high power in the industry out of deals people like Jimmy iovine and believe in yourself
@@brooksfleming3565 Its ironic that you're screeching about racism, and the white man holding the black man down, while commenting about an underprivileged black guy and admitted drug dealer, from one of the most underprivileged neighborhoods in the U.S. becoming a fucking BILLIONAIRE.....Black victimhood is way overhyped.

Him and Brady have a similar story at the beginning of there careers and now they are both living the good life..they worked hard!!!
Brah chill out.
The guy goes threw freedom and hell all at onceee! Bro he’s a Legend of Good and A Stain of Realism!
and they STILL gon' hate on Jay like he's not top 5 DOA SMH 🤦🏾♂️
He was never a drug dealer.
barely known and not rated outside new york. Total fraud as well.
Hes NOT
@@tselby50 never said he did sell drugs tho but ok.
@@TGBurgerGaming barely known in what aspect? music or drug dealing? b/c i'm talking about his music
Good footage man! Subscribed
Well put together....and this is why Hov deserves everything he has....
Jay-z in rare form. The best era in rap/hip-hop.
Wayne Prime era the greatest
I hope this legend makes a comeback we fucking need good music
The best jayz doc I seen on UA-cam! Great clips some I never seen
He made all the right moves
JAYZ is for real. He came and took up where the likes of Pac and Biggie left off... He's just so good that we need not make comparisons.
they didnt left off,they where stopped
@@elfantastico83 right
American Gangster album will always be his greatest work for me
Reasonable Doubt my no.1
Hi @Growingpains, from the way you've done the vídeo.. The keenly detailed compilation.. You could tell that you really appriciate what he does.. And what you do as well..
Kind Regards, from Mozambique
I'm so happy that Jay-z has reached the success that he has. Beside every good man is a woman, whether it's his wife, mother, grandma, sister, aunt, etc. I love to see a man change and become the best he can be, father, brother, son, etc. Now that's he's a Billionaire I hope that he invest in his community and help to create generational wealth for others...pay it forward.
Another great video, who you doing next?
Hopefully Kanye
Thanks for always showing love! I'm not sure yet, but Kanye would be a good one!
That clip him bringing out J.Cole on stage still great to see
Easy to forget how great son is dam we all watched his journey but few aspired to climb the Mountain behind him fuck it I’m next
Am inspired too
Go get that 💯
Listening to his music before his first album is awesome to me, because I can remember that
Whatever they call his climb or his journey, that album "blueprint" blew the F up!!!!
Unfortunately that wasn't his best work though..reasonable doubt..was prolly WITHOUT a doubt.. His best one
This was excellent work
He delivery seems effortlessly. Top 5
His delivery
Facts
Top 2 and he ain’t number 2
@@Cameron-fo7df word👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
As far as delivery top 7 at worst. Jay give it to you so smooth. Same wit fab and t.i.
This was dope !!
Jay z was playing chess frfr …it’s a reason why lebron don’t sign long term deals because the salary cap goes up every season…. So teams would try to lock a franchise type player in with a 5 plus year contract knowing damn well that player only loses money that way …. Jay was only signing 1 or 2 album joint deals witch means after every album we gotta renegotiate that was fucking genius for a NEW YORK rapper at that time…. He kept saying This my last album 😂😂😂 that man was 3 steps ahead of everybody
How about "How a young Black Man from the projects became a billionaire"
facts
We can't ignore the fact that he hustled his ass off, his race doesn't define him and btw i'm black too
@@johnconstantine5548 ight

As black people we’ve been defined by our race from time we first set foot on the North American Continent.
The reason it’s relevant to point out his race is Black people have Historically been disenfranchised throughout the History of America so to see a Black man from the Hood become a Billionaire is definitely worthy of mentioning his race.
@@markyd.3082 agree
Jay always was playing chess ♟ while everybody else was playing checkers😄
Long term thinking. It’s that simple
yeah even early on the way he thought, the way he acted more business like and professional, that made him stand out. he surrounded himself with guys that knew how to make deals.
Yea.. HE Surrounded HIMSELF Wit THEM PPL!! FK JAY Z -2PAC
@@emoney8368 what you think Pac was doing? 😂 you think he was clean
No lie... I just told my dad that before seeing your comment at the end of the day... you got some insight yo! Respect
Jay's face when he first heard Dirt off ya shoulder beat😂😂🤣🔥
How a RAPPER from Brooklyn became a billionaire.
It's called grinding and good investments and finessing people in the high power in the industry out of deals people like Jimmy iovine and believe in yourself
Rapper from Brooklyn, married Beyonce and became a Billionaire.
They as in racists.
@@brooksfleming3565 Its ironic that you're screeching about racism, and the white man holding the black man down, while commenting about an underprivileged black guy and admitted drug dealer, from one of the most underprivileged neighborhoods in the U.S. becoming a fucking BILLIONAIRE.....Black victimhood is way overhyped. Stop blaming outside forces and start lifting your community up.
It's called selling your soul
this is really well put together...
Detailed staf🔥🔥
Hard knock life is still such a banger even now when im 30💯💯💯
