The Black Album is my favorite Jay album (it's tied with Reasonable Doubt). But my favorite song off that cd is Moment of Clarity:
Quote:
Music business hate me cause the industry ain't make me
Hustlers and boosters embrace me and the music I be making
I dumbed down for my audience to double my dollars
They criticized me for it, yet they all yell "holla" If skills sold, truth be told, I'd probably be
Lyrically Talib Kweli
Truthfully I wanna rhyme like Common Sense
But I did 5 mill' - I ain't been rhyming like Common since
When your cents got that much in common
And you been hustling since your inception
**** perception. Go with what makes sense
Since I know what I'm up against
We as rappers must decide what's most important
And I can't help the poor if I'm one of them
So I got rich and gave back, to me that's the win/win
So next time you see the homey and his rims spin
Just know my mind is working just like them
(rims, that is)

Just went straight in!!!!!! Such a bop
Jay really went in on Black Album, Lucifer, Allure, Encore, nothing but Bangers... the only dud was that Madonna sample smh
Odd enough Reasonable Doubt and Black Album are my one and two (Black Album's tied with Vol. 1 though)
"Whites find the opportunities, and make solid plans to attain their goals. If a white man wants to buy a home, he sacrifices, finds a cheap rental, works hard, saves a downpayment, builds his credit, and waits patiently until his goals are met. Blacks want a home right now and start demanding handouts and a free ride. The white man will pay, right? Until blacks shut their mouths and start to pay attention to how white people operate, they will never find true success in the Western world."
"Despite all of the genuine attempts his parishioners have made to help poor blacks, they are just not able to function very well, not able to overcome their self-inflicted miserable poverty. A few have stolen from him, or never said a simple "Thank You." He is a simple man, but had realized that no matter how much you give to blacks, poverty resides in their hearts and they will take and take and never give back, and never learn the universal lesson of White generosity."

Because they were so generous when they invaded other people's land, bought/sold slaves, started an anti-immigration movement against the Chinese, told my grandmother she needed to drink out of the broken water fountain, sent Japanese-Americans to concentration camps, put up posters saying our natural hair is disgusting and needs to be straighten. Yes, please tell me MORE about this "White generosity". My poor impoverished negro soul needs to be enlightened.

"White America fondly remembers segregated schools as being the good old days...when white children weren't distracted by blacks from single family welfare moms, and the criminally corrupt neighborhoods...white standards where focusing improving white society...instead he have been distracted by the black heathens who have destroyed yet another community norm that was once held in high esteem by white America.
Funny...prior to intergration, no white person even CARE to measure the accomplishments of a black person (good or bad)...
4 decades ago...we WERE smarter and some of us knew...mingling closer to blacks was going to destroy this country...WE KNEW..."
