"For so long we were living in these neighborhoods, boxed in, and those neighborhoods were our world. A lot of people from Brooklyn have never been in Central Park, it's 20 minutes away. Our little world is all we knew. We didn't know anything outside of that world." Hov 2:20-2:42
does nobody notice the knowledge he's dropping? he's lightweight an enlightened being. he speaks from a point of view that feels like he's just a regular person. he never gives off the vibe that he's better than anyone else. ultimate balance of Pride and humility. understanding what's important. Nobody?
Yeah man, Jay z is the ultimate goat. He’s your favorite rappers favorite rapper. And up until recently he was someone who EVERYONE respected rather they liked his music or not. Sadly now we’ve reached a generation of entitled punks who think their shit don’t stink and that they don’t owe anything to anybody. But yeah, jay z is the man🙌🙌
What an incredible interview. Jay Z is by far the most insightful and knowledgable individual of our time that pushes the genre forward. He embodies what it is to be a person of high integrity that can handle himself in any platform be it the streets of Bed Stuy or the CNN newsroom. He invented himself.
Emory Jones took that charge for Jay and Jay has been greatful ever since. That level of believing in somebody is outstanding. I'm glad Jay had a spot at the table waiting for him when he came home. Real.
As a young man in his 20's Jay z is one of the rappers who speaks to me through music, being able to document your life in songs is a big move. This is where you know music can be used as a weapon or a way of inspiration.
Very interesting to me how Jay says that his reason for acquisitions, at this point in his life, and wealth growth is to be able to provide a better start and easier start for the generation coming up behind him. He say's he doesn't want this upcoming generation to have to come from such a position as he did. To me that says a lot about rap and the music industry overall. It's almost like he understands that you don't have to be a drug dealer or something of the sort, living in the extreme ghettos of this country in order to be able to provide great music. Maybe not so much that he understands that as much as he believes that it is available to us. Really have a great respect for this guy. His humility and pay-it-forward mentality would go down as historical in my book
I think he was talking simply about being able to hand down wealth to HIS next generation, as in his kids, grandchildren etc. Because like he states, there hasn’t really been many (if any at all) black families that have created the kind of wealth that it takes to pass down from generation to generation. Granted yes I agree, he is an outstanding man who deserves so much respect🙌
I am always honored to listen to a individual with such admirable credentials and achievements. But as far as these comments go...There are two types of individuals, one eats and digest what is beneficial to consume and then shit down the toilet what isn't. Then there are those who miss out on what could have been beneficial to consume because they are so focused and drawn in on what wasn't. but then you have to ask yourself, "what kind of person am I to dwell and continuously chew on shit that is of no use to me?" Bored? Unproductive? un valuable? un useful? take your pick...i guess at the end of the day you are what you eat huh #thinkaboutit
Been a hip hop head my entire life and to be honest I was never a big Jay fan. I've tried many many times to really feel what he was saying but never could until I read Decoded. Fantastic book. If your a hip hop fan you need to have this in your collection.
As you get older, you realise Jay Z is cemented in top 5 rappers, arguably artists, of all time. The growth, the maturity, the business, the calmness are all things we can take into life and grow from
UR a MORON. This guy is a SELF-PROFESSED, FORMER MAJOR DRUG DEALER from the BRONX!! And there's something we can all learn?! SURRRRR... like how many other drug dealers in the BRONX got themselves DEAD by JAY-Z and his organization, because there was a territory dispute?!! Do you think it's NOT POSSIBLE that the man being interviewed killed another person during a DRUG DEAL gone bad??!
If you haven't read this mans book, read it!!!! I've read a lot of books and this is by far my favorite. The most interesting and intelligent book by far. This man is far more intelligent than most people give him credit for.

Edson Congolo yes he say you know alot..BUT that's Jay . you know ??

He doesn't have to sit in a job interview and watch what he says he is paid for life!! YOU KNOW??? He is self made!! and regardless as how many times he say he will always get and have his..
Education thru either life experiences or proper schooling. I think back to graduating hs remembering classmates crying of course it's an achievement but for me college was next and that was a different world. Diversities in age, race,cultures, and religions and interacting with them all you find that it's more than just the hood.
Im curious as in Jay Z has the capitol to research and get in depth information regarding history. So Im just kind of confused that he didn't stumble upon Afrikan artifacts which show and tell our history as black people. Also that slavery isn't the only part of our history, but in fact that black people are the first people of the world. And that were the first Scientist, Mathematician, Linguistic, and so on and so forth.

i can appreciate how calm, cool and collected he acts, unlike some other rappers that cannot control themselves and have to be stupid
Mario Comparan Put some respeck on these other rappers names pleighboi.
Mario Comparan it's called being articulate
Most rappers who can't contain themselves be on pills. Junkies

Yep! You're right and folks are jealous of him, especially those who knew him from back then
Yup!

From 2:10-3:10 Jay was speaking the truth. I have nothing but respect for him
Music is simply leaving a piece if yourself into the world

Very well spoken

Why the cuts so trash

Just love what Jay-Z says about the fear of failure 5:00
The Rockefeller Family Deff Inspired Him 🤣
I'm a Jay-Z fan, but i haven't really seen how funny his voice is until TODAY lol
Very true!

Jay-Z's "real" response to "Tea Party" was: "What?"
😄😄😄 lolll thats exacfly what i thought
The Master Dame Dash gave the Student Jay Z the know how now the student is the master.
It's crazy too since Jay Z has always been older than Dame.
Well done
Great interviewer.. she led the conversation with purpose
People so dumb that's a Warhol painting 😂
not only is that a Warhol painting but its a baphomet painting.

I'm here in 2020. That portrait over his shoulder looks real crazy. I can make out a face and people around it. Maybe I'm trippin
Look at it the normal way you’d see baphomet.
Turn it upside down you’d see the cross with Jesus with people round it. Try squinting ur eyes
El magna carta...... Xx...........
lol yeah Jay Im feeling the timbs u always stay fly my nigga
That picture at the back decode black and white....should be framed and go to the art gallery.
Dis may men respekt
Did he intend for the album art to look like a Rorschach painting? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rorschach_test
You have to look at where shit come from...but. I love Jay Z as an artist.
here in 2020
HOV in the Tim's - Marcy Son lol
correction Jay Z, we elected a white-black man!

haha so many people here living in fantasy world, where they've let there television screen do the thinking for them.

When he opens his mouth I can be proud.
They tried to crack Jay Z so bad

Ya'll see the baphomet symbol embeded on his book cover? So creepy! I still fuckz with Jigga Musically though! lol
I swear one of the camera mans

Talk about intellect...
Im curious as in Jay Z has the capitol to research and get in depth information regarding history. So Im just kind of confused that he didn't stumble upon Afrikan artifacts which show and tell our history as black people. Also that slavery isn't the only part of our history, but in fact that black people are the first people of the world. And that were the first Scientist, Mathematician, Linguistic, and so on and so forth.
OH YES
