Everybody else that Jay-Z has dealt with were already made artists (Cam'Ron, Twista, Beyonce, Rihanna, etc etc). You could even make that case for Kanye too, cause he had been producing
for Jay way before he started rapping for him, so he was gonna get a shot regardless. I just really think Jay-Z doesn't know how to manage artists from the ground up, they have to already have
major buzz for him to truly get behind them.

That's true though. Young Gunz and some of the other dudes couldn't maintain their own buzz, just wanted Jay to drop
a verse for their next single, then appear on half their album.

I chuckled.
And I think Jay's problem is that he's still an artist. He don't know how to juggle managing upcomin artists and himself at the same time. Conflict of interest.
Oh, Jay-z was not working with Rihanna in 2005? And when she came to Def Jam already a household name?Originally Posted by Peep Game
