jay z is elite at rapping, but he might be just as good at giving interview answers

@_Twinndiesel Only Drake and that is why those who really know, know that he is the greatest of all time.

Theres only one artist whose been able to retain their position atop Hiphop by their ability to stay connected to their age group and still captivate the youth. It's not inauthentic. Its something none of the artists before him including HOV were able to do as long as he's done it. And it kills them that he did it and is still doing it.

"If you're trying to make young music and you're not young, it's gonna be inauthentic and people can feel that." "I love what the Clipse are doing right now and how it's authentic to them..." — JAY-Z via The New York Times

I know it's cool to hate on him now, but, looking back, @jordanbpeterson was probably one of the best things to happen to the world in the last 20 years.
John Anderson AC@JohnAndersonAC
In this 2018 interview with John Anderson, @jordanbpeterson spoke through tears about a simple, haunting truth: how little encouragement some people need to turn their lives around and how rarely they receive it. Following the recent update from @MikhailaFuller regarding Jordan’s health and his battle with akathisia and neurological injury, these words feel more poignant than ever. Jordan has spent years pouring encouragement into the lives of millions; now, we want to send that same strength back to him. John and the entire team here are praying for our friend Jordan and the Peterson family during this incredibly difficult season. If you are people of prayer, we ask you to do the same. #jordanpeterson #akathisiaawareness #prayerworks #prayer

Zingah will say "keep it a bean," and all his guests fold.

Peterson’s fall is tragic in every sense of the word
He appeared on the scene while I was dealing with the death of my wife and his work was part of getting me back on my feet
But his inability to truly commit to the Christian beliefs he so venerated reflected a larger failure of his rationalistic attempt to engage with faith
His message of personal duty was powerful but his insistence on ignoring wider systemic issues is oddly reflective of his personal struggles
Pray for Jordan, he has helped many of us and for all of his faults he deserves appreciation for what he has done

We figured out that dad has a psych med induced neurological injury, and has been suffering from akathisia. It’s been 6 years since any psych medications. Last summer his symptoms started, after a flare up likely induced by mold (CIRS) and stress. It was complicated by pneumonia and associated sepsis a month later. It’s been horrible. Neurological injuries from psych meds are far more common than people know. I made this video to explain what they are and what akathisia is because they’re not talked about enough, they’re misdiagnosed, nearly impossible to treat, and hidden by the pharmaceutical industry. I don’t plan on making another update about my dad, it stresses my family out, and myself, and there’s nothing more to say about it until things get better. I will be jumping up and down about psych med injury awareness from now on as it’s impacted my health as well, and is devastating. Prayers are appreciated still.

@SizweDhlomo Niggas know there hasn't been anything like Drake before

Because you’d have to be an idiot to say anything else!

This is why you must always be clear where you stand with people. Let there be no ambiguity. If it’s love, let it be. If it’s hate, let them see.

Nore reveals Pusha T called him emotional and couldn't get the words out when Pharell chose "BOTH' when asked to choose between Drake and Pusha. Pusha told Pharell to never do that again because 40 would've never picked him over Drake. "Why would our boy (Pharell) say that...40 would have never picked me over Drake."
