cant deny jay's business sense, but then again, Nas has him beat on lyrics and skill, i mean, i f jay gets money thats tight, but it dont do me any good. but if Nas has some tight raps, that i can listen to, that does affect me.
so i say: Nas for hip hop skill
Jay Z for business smarts and marketability |
