This is why I have always and will always be a Memphis Bleek fan, he is one of the realest! Loyalty is rare but one of the highest quality's someone can have, respect.
@NiaCheney True indeed Bleek has been a loyal brother to Jay for years, however there is a such thing as being loyal to a fault. If Jay does or has did something that is just despicable and Bleek know about would Bleek check Jay or expose Jay & can Beek's loyalty to Jay be detrimental to himself ? who knows.
True indeed. However Bleek need to stop thinking and feeling that he isn't equal to Jay just because Jay is a great m.c., a great lyricists, have several multi-platinum albums, a multi-millionaire & hugely successful.
Shootout to the big homie Bleek. I met him at one of the Ruff Ryders/Roc a Fella tour stops & he stopped me from doing something REAL dumb back then as a teenager that I couldve been still paying for now. Forever respect. That & he nice on the mic for 20 yrs with or without Jay & he knows how to give a hell of an interview.
I LOVE their relationship. Bleek idolizes and truly has the upmost respect for Hov. and Jay has made it clear that Bleek never has to worry about anything whether he's dead or alive. he gave him Dusè and he's in that mans will. I always wondered if Kanye was ever jealous of Hov and Bleeks relationship.
Not really, staying loyal to Jay Z is easy lol. Doubt he would be loyal to somebody else or say, Dame if the roles were reversed. I love Bleek and he is loyal no doubt. But how fucking hard is it to be loyal to a childhood friend like jay?
+stryfetc1 It's always gonna be that way. It's just like Yayo will never have an interview where they don't ask him a million questions about 50. It comes with the territory.
Ever since I heard "M-E-M-P-H-IS Bleek, no need to dress warm I brought plenty of heat" I've been liking Bleek. I always thought he had skills, absolutely loved Da Undastanding, always wished him to do well even when a'holes kept comparing him to Jay unfairly and looking for reasons not to even give him a chance. He was better than a whole bunch of rappers that actually made it!!
What I like about Bleek is the fact that he a genuine dude who has nothing but love and loyalty in his heart. No bitterness, no past anger, no remorse, just living in the now and super honest about his successes and failures.
13:06 The Nas verse they talkin' about was from the title song off the Nastradamus album and the line was "You wanna ball til you fall? I can help you with that, You want beef I can let a slug melt in ya hat..." Bleek had a record where he said "Imma ball til I fall what you think of that?" and so he took offense thinkin' Nas was comin' at him and prematurely released a record where he took shots at Nas "Ya life was written, play ya position". Nas then responded on a track off of QB's Finest saying "Oh you didn't wanna know whose life was written, the life I'm livin', the ice the women...". I guess Jay-Z saw his lil man was about to get ethered before "Ether" and jumped in the beef with a shot at Nas at a concert.
The phrase "at the end of the day" has replaced the words "however, furthermore, nonetheless " in so many people's vocabulary. Which is Rick Ross's favorite phrase. 😁
what bleek just say. Jay don't care as long as you selling that dude sat....or soul.....did he mean dude Satan or that dude soul. Craig voice, am I trippin
Man I needed this interview and I feel like Hip Hop needed this. This is the definition of loyalty. This was from the Golden Years of Hip Hop. This is what Hop Hip was built on all in this interview. Salute to BC for this one.
You gotta respect this dude. Never salty or jealous. Always loyal. These type of guys are few and far between in the rap game. Shout out MB for reall!!
memphis bleek koming of age verse waz so dope...i herd he waz only like 16 at the time...i always gave him props for spitting such a dope verse at such a young age....broke my fukin heart into pieces when i found out a few years ago that Jay Z wrote it for him!!!
Now I can see why Memphis Bleek has been with Jay for so long (and vice versa). Dude's real, cool and has one of the greatest gifts one who could have: His friends happiness is his happiness. The total opposite from envy (the feeling, not the dj of course!)
Roc A Fella is the greatest STABLE of Rappers/producers of all time -Jay Z -Beanie Sigel -Kanye -Camron -Young Gunz -Jus Blaze -Dj Clue -Guru -Freeway -Dipset -Stateprop Soo much more -
People don't get that Ether was so epic it made Jay-Z step out of character. Never before or since has he ever came at somebody so personally. Nas won that battle.
I wish they would've asked about a "Coming of Age part 3". I liked the sequel a lil better than the org and always used to think about how part 3 would go.
Been waiting on this for a minute...havent seen it yet cause i have work... But i bet you envy will ask," so for the people out there who may not know you , tell them who you are and what you do " -_-
I used to love his energy on records. His opening verse on "4 Da Fam" is like my all time favorite of his. I agree with him about whole albums not being completely necessary anymore. For most, bc of the internet, the audience is on to and ready for the next batch of music in under 6 months.
Jay said since you not making music im gonna put you on to this dusse biz so we can eat together!!!! I love that
Bleek a True Friend to the End! He really understands his position and never feels the need to over do it.
His accent is life! he's so Brooklyn
Bleek is a real NY dude 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Hell yeah
+eric archer
I love it lol
Word. I bet that nigga sleep with his timbs on
Seen him a few time in Marcy cool dude
+eric archer Just say real dude. Theres 9 million people in NY. not all are real.
Jay-Z told us this in 96 "I see his hunger pains, I know his blood boils
He want to run with me, I know this kid will be loyal
." he was right
This is why I have always and will always be a Memphis Bleek fan, he is one of the realest! Loyalty is rare but one of the highest quality's someone can have, respect.
Same here I just like the guy

his loyalty to HOV, is unheard of...
Yeah not many grow up with somebody that easy to be loyal too though lol

Loyalty is rare these days. I respect Bleek for being down for so long.
Great interview. He has a real energy that u can't deny

I met him too in person. He was always real like that from the start.
bleek same to Jay as Yayo is to 50
this dude so New York!!!

Not to mention bleek was in the picture way longer then Ye
Why bleek sound like hes doing a shoutout for the whole interview. nah but fr his loyalty is on another level
Not really, staying loyal to Jay Z is easy lol.
Doubt he would be loyal to somebody else or say, Dame if the roles were reversed.
I love Bleek and he is loyal no doubt. But how fucking hard is it to be loyal to a childhood friend like jay?
FACTSS LOL
Every Memphis Bleek interview ever:
5% talk about his music career
5% talk about The Roc as a label
90% talk about Jay Z

Surprisingly good interview. Bleek cool af.

bleel always spoke truth, dont see why that's surprising
Bleek n AZ both dope rappers that rapped with Hove and Nas. Still history makers 🙌
This interview just took me back for a hot second... Good shit my dude!!! #90sEra

Underrated.. bleek is dope
I don't care what nobody say, Bleek had some powerful records.
-plus it ain't nothing phony about son in this interview. salute!
Aint it refreshing to see such realness and loyalty?!? Not much of that goin on these days!!
+Leslee Greoskis because he don't got an ego...that's rare these days brother...salute to bleek for holding HOV down through the years B! Word.
Mind right, and, stay alive in new York City was fire! The whole understanding album was fire!

Man Bleek is so brooklyn b, I love this shit. such a breath of fresh air type of interview.
This is my era....this is how ppl should be, his loyalty is like mine, unheard of. Respect, rip to the old days
What I like about Bleek is the fact that he a genuine dude who has nothing but love and loyalty in his heart. No bitterness, no past anger, no remorse, just living in the now and super honest about his successes and failures.
He is honest and loyal...... the loyalty nowadays is dead!!!!!!!

I always felt Ja and Bleek shoulda did an album together. They had good chemistry.
I always thought that Beans and Bleek should've done an album together...
Well the closes to that would be the Dynasty album.
Well the closes to that would be the Dynasty album.
To an extent yeah...
Firm Fiasco ok this was 3 years ago so hopefully you know what you just typed is some bullshit lmao
instant classic. much respect for Bleek! definition of loyal. humble. respect
this should of been an hour !!!!!
hell no boring ass interview

+Alyssa A ross moved on from "ya undadig?" to this
El Chapo underdig? Oh lord..please explain what it means.
***** ask ross. nobody else knows. 2014 interviews was that shit all day

shit even got angela laughing lmao
never aged
22:42 "I got this joint with Nipsey"... Crazy when you see past interviews before nipsey was gone.
I think Bleek got even younger n looks better then he did 20 yrs ago
He look way more mature...
Bleek always been a cutie
Nothing but respect for Bleek. the man knows his lane and place. you have to appreciate that.
He's a true old school Brooklyn hood dude from the stuy. Now everybody in the stuy is either a black hipster or a white yuppie lol.
fashionerdxo gentrification Shit my g it’s like that all over the coldest spots cleaned up what you expected?
Yeah southeast DC is now a gap commercial, used to be the most dangerous place in dc
Bleek a humble dude. Real nigga. Nice interview
He's a good dude. Used to hate on him, but it wasn't founded in something Real. Bleek's a good person, I see that now.
Man I needed this interview and I feel like Hip Hop needed this. This is the definition of loyalty. This was from the Golden Years of Hip Hop. This is what Hop Hip was built on all in this interview. Salute to BC for this one.
Bleek is a cool dude :)
Dope interview, Everyone needs a friend like Bleek
Bleek keepin it 100. Great interview. I remember buying Coming Of Age when it first dropped, back in high school!
Bleek has ALWAYS been real. Never change. Big up Bleek.
mannnnnn I love this era of rap!!!!
Stay Alive In NYC is my fav Bleek track. One of the hardest rap songs ever made
His interview on tax season was classic
You gotta respect this dude. Never salty or jealous. Always loyal. These type of guys are few and far between in the rap game. Shout out MB for reall!!
Bleek has been the dude since the jump...just seen em at Sean Price funeral. #RIP

+PARTY MARTY Yeah he did step out of character on that one. He had a vicious reply with the track "Blueprint 2"
+lifestraight yeah people forget about that.
Ron Davis Hmm...an argument can be made for that.
+Ron Davis opinions
you've clearly never heard of "Blueprint 2"....
When i heard him spit on "It's Alright" w/ Hov, i really thought he was 'next up'. He killed that verse
"Bleek could be one hit away his whole career" 😞
long as Im alive he's a millionaire
long as Im alive he's a millionaire

I still remember continuously bumping Bleak in my 2 door Chevy Lumina with 4 15in speakers tearing up the neighborhood 😊
