Why does Jay-Z think hes so cool?

[ironmanfitness]

seriously he has tons of money and does he even do any philanthropy? Hes the biggest "show off" ive ever seen.

 

[deepinthajeep]

"Oh, you not feeling me? Fine. Cost you nothing, pay me no mind"

 

[ironmanfitness]

^dont get me wrong i think his music is great but i dont see him trying to fix anyting in the world like other musicians....he just talks about himself

Not content just to live the life of an ultra-wealthy rap mogul, Jay-Z started searching for something that would allow him to give back to the world.

You sound stupid, and I'm not even gonna waste the time to explain why

. However, I will answer your question. Yes.

* Gave 1 mil w/ Diddy for Katrina.
* Christmas toy drive every year in his hometown.
* Formed partnership with Kofi Annan and the UN to bring attention to the water crisis.
* The profit from the Fade To Black concert went to charity.

... just to name a few

[seymore cake]

I put dollats on mine ask Columbine, when the Twin Towers dropped I was 1st in line
Donated proceeds off every ticket sold when I was out on the road thats how you judge Hov
NO??
Ain't I supposed to be absorbed in myself?
Every time there's a tragedy, I'm the first one to help
They call me this misogynist, but they don't call me the dude
To take his dollars to give gifts at the projects

there you have it

 

[haiti5]

who cares...did he not pay your child support this month.

 

[x Buddha Bless x]

Yo he doesn't think he's cool, he knows it.

You should go listen to The Prayer off Ghostface Killah's The Big Doe Rehab and put ya life into perspective, worrying/envying/hating the next man willbring nothing but negativity your life

And I AM NOT an On Man Jigga Stan matter of fact @#+% that%%+%$# WHO CARES!?

 

[starvin harlem]

Columbine??

that line always made me laugh . . .
"I put dollas on mine . . . Ask Columbine"
He's basically saying . . . "I put dollars on mine, ask the white man" . . . When the Twin Towers dropped I was the first in line . . . Great,where were you when they was throwin brothas and sistas out of that #%#+% back onto the streets?? Then he had the nerve to mention the Jena 6, when he himselfwasn't out there marching, but he did the PSA's last year on Anti Semitism?? What . . .

But anyway, this is with whom you wanna place your faith . . . As far as Ghost, wasn't he building a school in Africa about 2 or 3 years ago, he alsohanded out sleeping bags, jacket and @%+! to homeless people a few years back . . . It is what it is . . . He just not mention it in his rhymes, if youdon't donate, aight thats on you, but don't try to throw it in ya songs just to show up another man

 

[club27]

[ballinsincekneehigh]

Who cares about his lyrics....we all know he can spit. But I was watchin the American Gangster album performance on MTV and man he was acting like a lame. ButI still like his music

 

[yngseancombs12]

Cool?! I'm a grown%*$% man dawg...I don't give a ____ about who's cool!!! He's a rapper! But, if you need an example, look at my man El-HajjMalik El Shabazz or Mahatma...I guess you can say they're pretty "cool".

Is this a serious question? I hope not...
