Jay's lyrics are so great because you always find something new about them. Really have to listen carefully to really understand his greatness.

Serious question. What trends did he exactly start?  I see ppl quote that line all the time but can only remember maybe one trend he started.

"I like Jay-Z and i think he is deeper then people give him credit for but by no means is he as subversive as Lupe."

Jay-Z can be subversive while getting them radio spins AT THE SAME TIME though.

Can Lupe do that? LASERS, anyone?

Yup.

Jay is no doubt one of the best to ever do it... and people's opinion of who is the "greatest" will always contain a certain degree of subjectivity... but it's ridiculous when people refuse to acknowledge that their favorite rappers have any flaws or inconsistencies or that they're not the best in every single "category."

Lol at gettin name dropped in OP's post. Caught me off guard. Jay is that dude on the mic, that's all there is to it. Even for those who don't like the man, you gotta respect his ability.

Jay-Z can be subversive while getting them radio spins AT THE SAME TIME though.

Can Lupe do that? LASERS, anyone?

From a business stand point Jay is smart for doing that.  But Lupe really isn't all about the money. 

"Show goes on" went gold btw as a single.  Sad to see that when he puts out a commercial song it gets play but all his other music doesn't.
