CL INTERVIEW: LUCY DIAMONDS SPEAKS
Tuesday, September 26, 2006

Initially, I wanted to do the interview over the phone, but she wanted me to e-mail the questions..
First up, I gotta ask you- How do you feel about gossip blogs? Do you check out any of them?
LUCY DIAMONDS: Honestly, I never really paid attention to gossip blogs, nor did I realize the strength and the impact it has on today’s general public. Last week after the XXL Mag online story came out, a lot of your readers here at concreteloop messaged me to myspace, emailed me, im’ed me and called me. So immediately this website caught my attention and I checked it out and I saw some of the comments. I respect everyone’s opinion even the negative comments. The revolution will be blogged!!!I actually viewed your myspace video thing the other day, and you were clowning everyone from Miss Info, Jay-Z, to 50 Cent. I got to ask, 50 really doesn’t have a magic stick?
It’s clinically proven that if anybody abuses steroids, it affects the magic stick. So if it’s true that 50 is abusing steroids, then he suffers from this symptom…Ok, so let’s get to this whole Jay-Z debacle. You said so much of the story hasn’t even been brought up, what do you mean by that?
Everyday something else can be added to this ongoing story. Everyday I get some form of hate from this, but the hate will not stop my movement. I know lot of people are planning on coming out against me. But at the same time I’ve received just as much love and I appreciate the support.Jay-Z hit you up recently, what did he say to you?
I talked to Jay-Z yesterday several times via two-way. It was an interesting conversation to say the least. I do want to apologize for calling his mother a lesbian. And I am. It wasn’t in my place to speak out against his mom. It’s very disrespectful on a different level, and while I’m not apologizing to Jay-Z, I’m apologizing to Gloria Carter for my complete disrespect. Let me get it clear, I’m not apologizing for what I said about my personal opinions on his blasphemous lyrics, the unfair stance he took because of my association with Amil, or anything else. And while I do not agree with a lot of choices people make, especially those which go against what the bible teaches us, (and I am not saying that I myself have not made many poor decisions), how I addressed the situation was completely wrong, and I have no excuse for the things I’ve said about Jay-Z’s mother. I handled it very poorly, so once again, Gloria Carter I am very sorry for all the unnecessary disrespect I’ve shown. It was not kind to lash out at you, and for that I apologize.In a recent interview with Fresh from XXL, you said Jay-Z was like the anti-Christ. Why did you say that?
In the book of Revelation, and throughout the bible actually, we are warned about false prophets, and I understand that most people don’t know how to apply the bible’s messages into our modern living. I’m not saying Jay-Z is the Anti-Christ, but can be likened to a false prophet, and I am in no position to judge him but I do feel responsible for pointing out the danger he is putting himself in. You can’t put yourself on a level like that, you can’t view yourself as having any importance to people. Everything he has, he has because God allowed him to have it, it was by nothing he did, and he needs to remember that. We all do. Everything we have and everything we do is by the grace of God. I am not trying to beat people over the head with my beliefs or anything like that, and I’m actually very conflicted when I feel I should speak out on what I believe because I do not want my words or my actions to disgrace God. I don’t want my past mistakes to let people view me as a hypocrite now and therefore not take what I say about God seriously, simply because I am the one speaking about Him.A lot of people are saying you keep bringing up this Jay-Z thing just to get attention for your album, what do you have to say to them?
If people think that, they are wrong. First of all, I don’t have an album out so I’m not promoting anything to sell. Right now, I’m giving away my music. Anybody can hear my music at www.myspace.com/officiallucydiamonds and if they want a song, they can email me and I’ll personally send them my music for free. It’s not about the money.Don’t you think this whole thing will sabotage your career? Or do you even care?
Everybody is saying that I am committing career suicide, I’m going to be blackballed from the industry and I won’t have a future. I honestly don’t care. The business of music is so trivial, it just doesn’t matter to me. Look at people who work so hard and never get deals, never put out records, and never let go of their dream of doing it, so they just keep taking the beatings. Or how about a band who gets a deal and releases an album and they just never pop? They just sit in the stores telling their friends they had an album out, and that’s all it ever amounts to. So I’m not afraid of career suicide, if that’s what you want to call it. People are over when they’re over. However, with all the technology of today, it is much easier for an artist to remain independent, especially if you only aim for a smaller but loyal fanbase. You can now do everything yourself. You don’t have to answer to a corporation or the industry. You can sell your music on your own websites, press up your own music and sell it at your shows. You can sell your music yourself through iTunes, create your own ring tones, and promote and sell it on myspace. If you can’t get your video played, you can youtube and still reach the masses. An artists success depends on the artist and their music. That’s it.Ok I do this thing called “name drop” basically I just drop names, and you say the first thing that comes to mind.

She’s an asshole.
I don’t like Jay-Z but she is talking out her ass on a lot of things.
And steroids don’t shrink your wang. They shrink your balls if you abuse them.
The small penis myth has a simple explanation. If you do extensive leg exercises (Squats) and they develop and get big. How would having big muscular thighs make your penis look? It’s not like you can do Wang Curls to make your penis stronger/bigger. It’s going to stay the same.
Steroids (Mainly testosterone) are given to men with infertility problems, people who are suffering from AIDS and Cancer “Wasting” and to older men who have ED= Erectile Dysfuntion.
Steroids are not the evil that people make them out to be. When used correctly (And by the supervision of a doctor) they can provide benefits.

And PETA are terrorists. They believe in the “Total Liberation of Animals” that makes no fucking sense.
How on earth can you expect all animals to be liberated? That would cause so many problems in this world if Fido and Fifi were free to ride subways and be on the streets.
These Peta people make no sense.
So how do Diabetic Peta members take medicine if it’s derived from animals?

@ 62, you are very smart……i guess…BUT i know that already, i was just saying when he says it “God’s Son” he means as in Jesus Christ, I had an opportunity to speak to Nas some years ago about this, when he started using the term. It is indeed what he means, not that he is a child of God. You should do some research first before responding to people’s blogs. But thanks for giving me an oppportunuity to clarify this for you.

I like what she had to say. I don’t listen to hip hop. For some of you who don’t know, Jay-Z has used backwards masking. When you play In H 2 da Izzo, Backwards you’ll hear 666 murder murder Jesus. I’ve heard it and it is scary! Also he goes by Hov short of Jehovah which is another name for God. That is blasphemous in every way.

SAYING HE IS THE GOD OF RAP IS A SIMILE
JUST LIKE HIM SAYING THE ROCK ON UR FINGER IS LIKE A TUMOR.
Na Mean? I am positive that he doesn’t think people should be praying to him… Some people take things so literally. If she spent more time praying, rather than defaming ones character and judging that man and his mother, she could have a beter relationship with God.
If in fact jay-z thou8ght he was GOD, ITS NO ONES JOB BUT THE LORD TO JUDGE AND PUNISH. She doesn’t know what kind of relationship Jay has with GOD. That’s no ones business but theirs.

I don’t think people are attacking her because the love jay-z so much, I think people are attacking her because she’s trying to get attention by using controversy because her music is not hot enough to speak for itself. There’s a market out here for independent artist, there are a lot of local MC’s and singers who start out in the streets and night clubs and over the internet that get love from their small fan bases and sell their music right out there trunk. I know this, because I listen to a lot of those local independent artists. She’s trying to masquerade as some true artist, when in actuality all she is, is a biter girl who got turned down from a record label and is boo hooing all over cyberspace. Grow UP!
If you watch her video interview at C&D she talked about how she was considering pretending to be a lesbian to get the deal w/ Jay because she thought that might get her some more buzz! She’s just an attention seeker and for those independent artists who are actually out there on their GRIND and not riding everyone’s coat tails.
Also, that preacher who played the song backwards is a scammer. Visit his website where he sell’s his dvd’s and has a hit list of anti-Christ artists, it includes everyone from Jay-z, to Alicia Keys, to Angie Stone, to hezikiah walker, to Nas, to Erykah badu, India Arie and so on and so on. If Jay-z is doing something that’s not pure of heart he can answer to God himself, not some enterprising preacher or a wannabe rapper. And if people are silly enough to worship him like a god, then they’re problems are a lot bigger than hip hop.

it’s amazing to me that she is talkin about God this and God that, but yet, she feels the need to spread GOSSIP AND NEGATIVITY about
1.the size of 50’s private parts
2. ‘clowning’ alot of other people
and the list goes on and on
she needs to be very careful about how she JUDGES PEOPLE…ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU’RE BRINGING GOD INTO IT.
it doesn’t matter what you did in your past, WE ARE JUDGING YOU BASED ON WHAT YOU’VE SAID IN YOUR PRESENT…
AND HONESTLY, I VIEW HER AS A HYPOCRITE…one of the “SUPER-SPIRITUAL” people who walk around with their cape on, trying to judge others…
Ms. Lucy, YOU DON’T HAVE A CLUE HOW GOD CAN USE SOMEONE…WHETHER IT BE JAY-Z OR 50 CENT OR WHOEVER
YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO JUDGE OR TALK ABOUT ANYONE IN SUCH AN INSULTING MANNER
if you are SO CHRISTIAN, AND YOU LOVE GOD SO MUCH, then you MUST KNOW what the bible says about what YOU SHOULD DO when you’ve offended your brother…
SINCE YOU LIKE WEILDING THE WORD TO JUDGE PEOPLE SO MUCH, WHY DON’T YOU READ THE WORD TO FIND OUT WHAT THE HECK YOU SHOULD BE DOING…
ok, so you read the book of Revelation…the MAIN PURPOSE of reading the word is to get power and counseling over YOUR OWN LIFE…
since you’re so GOOD at pointing out OTHER PEOPLE’S “perceived” flaws, how about YOU TELL US ABOUT ALLLLLL OF YOURS…TELL US SOME OF THE THINGS OF YOUR PAST…tell us about the things that YOU have done AND ARE STILL DOING that don’t make God happy…
I mean, come on, you felt free to compare Jay-Z to the AntiChrist, so WHO IN THE BIBLE DO YOU COMPARE YOURSELF TO???? JACOB, MAYBE???
If you aren’t willing to get the LOG out of your OWN EYE, then HOW DARE YOU try to point out the log in someone else’s…
you can talk all that junk you want about how you aren’t doing this to sell records, but I’ll tell you 1 thing…YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW…AND SO FAR, the only seeds that you’ve sown are the seeds of DISCORD, LIES and DRAMA…
SO, since you like BIBLE BEATING so daggon much, how bout you take that WORD AND BEAT YOUR OWN HEAD…
just because you memorize a few Scriptures DOES NOT GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO TREAT PEOPLE THE WAY THAT YOU HAVE
IT’S A GREAT THING THAT YOU LOVE GOD, BUT YOU HAVE A LOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNG WAY TO GO (like we all do)…and if you want to be like JESUS, YOU BETTER LEARN HOW TO BE A LOT MORE LOVING…
CUZ RIGHT NOW, THE ONLY THING I FEEL FROM YOU AND YOUR WORDS IS A BUNCH OF BITTERNESS AND HATE
Ms. Lucy, Jesus called us to be WITNESSES…NOT LAWYERS OR JUDGES

Wow, thank you #33 for providing that link….very edifying. I think the girl was very shrewd to hold the interview over the email: it gave her the chance to think about her answers and make sure that nothing she said was “misquoted” or “misconstrued”.
As far as Jay-Z being “the Anti-Christ”, I don’t know about all that. The Bible does not speak on 3 Anti-Christs, so I don’t know where people get that from. It says that whosoever denieth the Father and the Son is an anti-christ. If Jay-Z is a 5 Percenter like the clip claims, and he believes that he is “god” or that the black man is “god” like they teach, then according to the Bible he is an anti-christ.
As far as the album playing in reverse with the Satanic messages, I wouldn’t doubt it at all. Masonic imagery and messages are heavy in the rap game on the records and in the videos. He’s gotten dumbass negroes to throw up the fuckin’ pyramid, call him “Jay-Hova”, and wear the skull & crossbones like it’s some hot new fashion. Nothing really surprises me.
I believe that eventually so much is going to be exposed about how decrepit the music industry is and how much these talented black performers have sold their souls that even the most rock-headed negro is going to have to acknowledge it.

JAY can talk about Jesus, Buddha, God or whoever he wants. The WHOLE WORLD is not a Christian. If you dont LIKE WHAT HE SAYS DONT LISTEN TO IT.
If anyone is the ANTICHRIST IT IS GEORGE BUSH AND his administration.
If he doesnt believe in Jesus, or has an opinion, HE HAS A RIGHT TO THAT!!!!!! NOT EVERYONE IS INDOCTRINATED!!!!!!
AND I DONT MEAN TO OFFEND ANYONE BUT THE BIBLE IS NOT THE AUTHORITARE ON LIFE. THERE ARE MANY BOOKS THAT ARE CONSIDERED HOLY SCRIPTURES.
DO YOU READ THE KING JAMES VERSION OF THE BIBLE? DID YOU KNOW KING JAMES WAS A SLAVE OWNER AND FRIEND TO WILLIE LYNCH?????
WAKE UP PEOPLE, RELIGION IS SOMETHING WE AS HUMANS CREATED, THAT IS WHY THERE ARE SO MANY RELIGIONS
TRY TO EDUCATE YOURSELVES ON HISTORY, RELIGION, AND OTHER BOOKS THAT WILL GIVE YOU A TRUE UNDERSTANDING OF THE WORLD WE ARE IN
What is it that makes people believe in RELIGION at all? It seems to me that gods were invented by men to explain things they didn’t understand. But we understand a lot more today (though of course the frontiers of science are always speculative). Given that it’s impossible to have an explanation for everything (because then that explanation would demand another explanation — “But Mommy, why is it that way?”), why not just take the universe as we find it, rather than positing some incredibly complex cause for which we have no evidence?
Why was “demon-possession” so common in Jesus’ time, but hardly mentioned at all in the Old Testament, and apparently non-existent today? Modern medicine seems to have transformed demons into things like epilepsy and schizophrenia
Christianity asserts that more than 50% of the people in the world will go to hell. (”Strait is the gate, and narrow is the way that leadeth unto salvation, and few there be that find it.”) This belief is morally repugnant. Surely an all-powerful God could have set up something different.
In the Old Testament, God ordered the genocide of the Canaanites, including infants. (In some cases he allowed them to keep the young virgin women alive — Numbers 31:17-18.) How can this be reconciled with the idea of a just and merciful God?
There is evidence inside the Bible itself that much of the Old Testament was not written until the time of Josiah. (II Kings 22:8+, in which the book of the law is conveniently “found” in the temple, and contains some laws that apparently nobody had ever heard of before).
gradually agreed upon, and finally formalized by a vote. Early church fathers quoted extensively from apocrypha.
Most people believe the religion of their parents. If one and only one religion is true, why did God not make it obvious to all nations alike?
Even if there is a creator of the universe, why does he want to be worshipped? God is an egomaniac?
If God wanted us to have free will, why does he threaten us with hell? It isn’t free will if you’ve got a gun at your head.
Romans 9:15-23 says that God deliberately causes sinners to sin. (For instance, he hardened Pharoah’s heart.)
There is evidence inside the Bible itself that much of the Old Testament was not written until the time of Josiah. (II Kings 22:8+, in which the book of the law is conveniently “found” in the temple, and contains some laws that apparently nobody had ever heard of before).

I think the ppl who Judge Jay Z are the ones not listening to his music saying caling himself God MC is Blasphemy u must not be up on hip hop Nas, Rakim, and others have said that
So I guess when he calls himself self Young!!! and he is 36 yall got a problem with that too plz
Jay Z raps
with the weight of the world on my shouldas
that’s why they call me hova
i’m far from being god
but i work goddamn hard
Angels on my shoulders, head in the clouds
No, I’m not rappin’, I’m just thinkin’ real loud
My karma’s my armor, my charm and wit
Is like a lethal bomb, I’m warm and s***
And I did bad for good but when you’re trapped in the ‘hood
You do worse for less, homie earth’s a test
Only god can judge me
My heart ain’t ugly
But the thoughts that I drop is heavy
Try budge me
Mama loved me, pop left me
Still the homies call me lucky lefty
Whatever guillotine guides my life
Dear Lord, don’t let me die tonight
But if I shall before I wake I’d accept my fate
I did what I did my heart was in the right place
I did so I could live to put food on my plate
You musta loved me not to let it end by 3 that day
Well, whatever the case, I’m glad it wasn’t murder
in a town you never hearda from a nickel-plated burner
I guess I’m not finished with my journey
Please forgive me for my sins, shit I’m still trying to learn
Pop died, didn’t cry, didn’t know him that well
Between him doin heroin and me doin crack sales
With that in the eggshell, standin at the tabernacle
Rather the church, pretendin to be hurt, wouldn’t work
So a smirk was all on my face
Like damn, that man’s face is just like my face
So pop, I forgive you for all the shit that I lived through
It wasn’t all your fault, homey you got caught
Into the same game I fought, that Uncle Ray lost
My big brothers and so many others I saw
I’m just glad we got to see each other
Talk and re-meet each other
Save a place in heaven ’til the next time we meet forever!

Umm. Who is this girl? I just had to do a little internet research! Her music isn’t great, but what she has to say is very interesting– kind of an inside look into how the music industry screws over newcomers. I like that she’s affiliated w/ PETA. And she gets respect for trying to put her story out regardless of the mainstream media’s resistance to the truth.
Jay-Z is lame and possibly one of the most overrated “artists” ever. Like, him and the Beatles–sometimes it just becomes cool to like someone and everyone jumps on that bandwagon. He comes across as very negative and conceited as well. Yuck.

I am pretty sure everyone in the business knows she is trying to get on, trying to create a buzz. Jay Z knows, 50 knows. I know they can remember when it was them trying to get on. I don’t agree with the methods but I know that these two intelligent men 50 and Jay Z know better. Sooooo Keep it Moving!

Hmmmm. I wanna know more about Ms. Lucy Diamonds. Is she really a Christian? Is she saved? Has she been baptized? How long has she studied the bible?
What church does she go to?
I say all this because perhaps her intentions are good, but baby Christians (i.e. new converts) need to do a lot less talking and a lot more listening and studying. Sometimes they get all geeked up over a little of the word, but they don’t have the foundation to be making some of the statements they do. I think that may be the case here.
Discernment is one of the gifts of the spirit (hit up your New Testament on that one), but not every Christian will be blessed with it. Some want it, but don’t have it. Then they try to call people out and end up being loud and wrong. Happens a lot.
That’s my take on this, assuming Miss Diamonds is sincere…

What truth??? Blastin the man’s mother wanting to be signed by him yeah she is the truth alright ppl who Judge really need to listen to his music which I doubt they do. I am a Christian and I know not to Judge that its not my job its God no one on Earth came speak for me at Heaven’s gate. We have all sin no one is perfect and just because u is saved it doesn’t mean God is through working on you ppl really need to check themselves it is a big dicussion on this but when Jay Z teams up with the UN and takes on a cause that kills at least 10,000 ppl a day wheres the discussion Jay has always put his money where is mouth is and respect him for that Because Jay Z is currently touring around the world spreading word about the Water Crisis (is he doing it for publicity who know who cares but at least the word is getting out)
Pick a crisis — any crisis — the world is facing today: civil war, famine, AIDS, malaria, land mines. All pale in comparison with the problem we face regarding water.
The figures themselves are numbing: More than 1.1 billion people in the world lack access to safe drinking water. That’s one in six people. More than 2.3 billion — or one person in three — lack access to adequate means of disposing of human waste. Two million die each year from water-related diseases, which account for 80% of all illness in the developing world. At any given time, half the population in the developing world is sick from a water-related malady, and 10,000 a day die.
So lets talk about Jay Z whom this chick called the Anti Christ involvement in this cause

WOW “Bruno” — hopefully you were joking, cuz otherwise you sound like a real dumbass. PETA is against inhumane treatment of animals, including the ones we use for food, fur and testing. They also advocate adopting a vegan diet/ lifestle. Perhaps you should check out the website– http://www.peta.org.
I have been a vegetarian for four years, and vegan for about six months. I became a vegetarian for health reasons, but began my transition to veganism once I was able to make the logical connection between human rights, racial and gender equality, and rights for gays and lesbians, and the humane treatment of animals. That shit is all connected.

As Black people we are the least supportive of each other and picks ourselves apart the most we aleays want to display the negative aspects of each other but when a person is actually doing something good it is never brought up we know Jay Z isnt God but it doesnt take away from him being a Good person yes in some of his raps he talks about Drugs and Violence but like he said he is producy of his enviroment but unlike most rappers if u really listen to Jay Z u will see thats is not what he is just about He talks about the drugs, women and stuff but he also talks about the bad side to the life the everyday having to watch you back, the regrets that comes with it but we dont focus on those lyrics and what he is doing now we just love to bring up negative anything and bring our people down but thats life u need HATERS (yes some of yall are hating) but on the Water Crisis issues I am glad Jay Z is touring the world bringing light to the issues because it is a shame that more ppl die from lack of clean water than from AIDs or any other disease props also Mos Def song about the topic

This chick just wants attention, plain & simple, she’s so desparate she doesn’t care whether the attention is positive or negative. I never knew why Jay-Z started calling himself “Hov” and “Hova” (I’m not a fan) but I’m pretty sure he only meant that he is the God of Hip-Hop/Rap. He’s not crazy, Lucy Diamonds is, but Jay-Z is not.

I believe it………simple as that.
It’s not about hatin’cause i don’t give a dam about him one way or the other. He don’t pay my bills and he will not be the final judge over the paths that my life has taken me on.
Music today is full of shit. Sell this, hit that, bitch this, nigga that. It is horrible and disrespectful to men and women of all cultures. People are so brainwashed by the people who make the music that they don’t take time to really listen to what the artist is saying. Rather they believe it themselves or want other people to believe it is not the question. The question is “why”?
Why would you want young people to listen to this type of music while their brains are still developing. Most of these artist don’t even let their own children listen to there music. If they don’t want their own children to listen to it, why would they want anyone elses children to listen to it.
Wether people want to believe it or not………take a minute and think about it………as crazy as this girl may sound, she does have some valid points.
Most crazy people are the ones who speak the truth because they don’t have nothing to loose one way or the other (i’m sure she is smart enough to know that she is killing any chance of a career that she might have had(but it is those who have something to loose that are scared to speak ther mind.
Just something to really think about

Yall really hard on her like that, but I think the girl makes some good points. Jay-Z IS a poison to the image of hiphop and he’s one of those who made it ART-IFICIAL. She may be a “nobody” but at least she has more BALLS than a lot of dudes in the industry. She’s not “judging” the man she’s just POINTING OUT THE OBVIOUS. Jay-Z’s on some blasphemous shit! And the “666 murder murder Jesus” when you play that song backwards prove it.
I say BEYONCE leave that man alone cause he’s serving the devil.

What points are valid???
as I stated B4
So I guess when he calls himself self Young!!! and he is 36 yall got a problem with that too plz
Jay Z raps
with the weight of the world on my shouldas
that’s why they call me hova
i’m far from being god
but i work goddamn hard
Angels on my shoulders, head in the clouds
No, I’m not rappin’, I’m just thinkin’ real loud
My karma’s my armor, my charm and wit
Is like a lethal bomb, I’m warm and s***
And I did bad for good but when you’re trapped in the ‘hood
You do worse for less, homie earth’s a test
Only god can judge me
My heart ain’t ugly
But the thoughts that I drop is heavy
Try budge me
Mama loved me, pop left me
Still the homies call me lucky lefty
Whatever guillotine guides my life
Dear Lord, don’t let me die tonight
But if I shall before I wake I’d accept my fate
I did what I did my heart was in the right place
I did so I could live to put food on my plate
You musta loved me not to let it end by 3 that day
Well, whatever the case, I’m glad it wasn’t murder
in a town you never hearda from a nickel-plated burner
I guess I’m not finished with my journey
Please forgive me for my sins, shit I’m still trying to learn
Pop died, didn’t cry, didn’t know him that well
Between him doin heroin and me doin crack sales
With that in the eggshell, standin at the tabernacle
Rather the church, pretendin to be hurt, wouldn’t work
So a smirk was all on my face
Like damn, that man’s face is just like my face
So pop, I forgive you for all the shit that I lived through
It wasn’t all your fault, homey you got caught
Into the same game I fought, that Uncle Ray lost
My big brothers and so many others I saw
I’m just glad we got to see each other
Talk and re-meet each other
Save a place in heaven ’til the next time we meet forever!

MONICA # 123 they don’t wanna hear that because she’s a “nobody”, she isn’t “famous and rich”. YET these same people with opinions are NOBODIES themselves. Music is FULL OF SHIT you said it best. LUCY DIAMONDS may have made mistakes and poor decisions, she may have even been superficial in the past, but reality is SHE IS SPEAKING THE TRUTH. And I don’t care for her like that, I never bought her music or asked for an mp3 or shit, but when someone says something that is real, I don’t care who it is and how much they make a year, I support it.

#124 the igorance of not listening to music First off Jay Z who is suppose to be the Anti Christ has Kanye West the guy who made Jesus Walks on his record label does that make since
also as far as the preacher goes with the trsck
LISTEN…JAY-Z HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT TRACK…The song came from “THE GREY ALBUM” which was created by DJ DANGER MOUSE…Which is Black album lyrics put to The Beatles music…The track that the pastor played is track 11 on the mixtape….When played froward all of the words are already backwards, its not even a song its more like a breakbeat record(do your homework)

@ 121…..we are all a product of our inviroment. I was brought in the gutter and raised in the church. Where i came from doesn’t make me who I am, but it did remind me of where I didn’t want to be. If that’s the case my name should have been Sis. Mary Clarence. That doen’t mean we have to do the things that goes on in our inviroment. I was brought up in church. That was my enviroment. Listening to the word of God. That don’t mean I am goin to go around calling my self HOVA

^^ AND ?? It was Dame Dash’s idea. The only reason he KEPT KANYE is because he was successful with his first album. If he sees money, doesn’t matter WHO you’re repping in your music, he will be interested. What Jay-Z represents in HIS music is the epitomy of superficiality and negativity.
LISTEN…JAY-Z HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT TRACK…
^^ Yeah right with his voice on it.

JAY Z hasn’t released a record in what, two years? What the FREAK is this preacher and this weird white woman talking about?
Who is she?
Hova called himself “God of Rap”?
What the hell is going on?
I don’t even listen to JayZ’s stuff, but I keep up with him ‘coz he’s a celebrity. Dude’s been heading a record company for the past two years; how in the freak is he brainwashing folks?
Is this heifer mad ‘coz he signed LADY SOVEREIGN and not her?
I bet this is it.
She seems intelligent, but contradicts her statements.
She seems like she has common sense, but there’s an air of “this heifer is crazy” going on.
Hmmmm

well, i think shes crazy but i totally agree with the whole jay-z is a false idol thing.
i mean people follow im like a real leader. if he does something its got to be right. refering to him as President Carter, calling himself Hova?!?!? they quote him like they are quoting the bible and defend him like they are figthing for a cause that matters. i mean really.
hes just a man.

But b4 he was signed on Rocafella he was producing beats for Jay Z not Dame’s idea and the fact that he is still on the ROC
And if u had any knowledge u will know that the track Lucifer was originally Kanye West’s track Jay put out an acapella version of the Black Album and DJs around the world took that and made a Blue, White, Green album u named it without Jay consent or him hearing every remix to the album
The funniest part about this is Danger Mouse did this as a JOKE on the Grey Album which as everyone remembers was entirely comprised of samples from The Beatles’ “White Album”
To give you a little background, The Beatles were being called sanatic for putting messages that can be heard if you play the records backwards, so Danger Mouse did this as a joke for the remix of the black album

I never said I din’t listen to his music. I am not goin to say that because I would be lying. I am smart enough to take out some of the good he says and let the bad go out the window. Obviously you are not. and Futhermore, I don’t need to get the album if I can come on CL and read it from people who have nothing better to do than post it.

^^ Yeah for beats. BUT as an artist, even KANYE said on in MTV interview with Sway that he felt UNLOYAL to DAME because HE believed in him as a rapper and wanted to sign him, not Jay. Kanye chose to stay on the ROC cause it was better for him business wise but HE STILL feels unloyal towards Dame.

I think this can be summed up with a simple analogy. I think what’s happening in this case is what happens when anyone’s “on top”, folks are just waiting and anticipating Jay Z’s downfall. Kind of like I use to do with MJ and the Bulls, shit was borderline boring because you could damn near call the outcome of the game before the tip.
As far as the Anti Christ, Jay is far from that person. Not knocking Jay, but the Anti Christ will probably be a charismatic brilliant person, with the ability to lead the world; Jay can’t run Def Jam. The AC will most likely speak several languages, have a high ranking post in the world of politics and will be looked upon admirably by all the people of the world; that clears Bush.
If ya’ll want to look at somebody, ya’ll better keep your eyes on someone like Kofi Annan people.
I know, I know… why does it have to be a brother?

Thats makes 2 of us cause I really don’t think YOU have a clue what you are talking about either.
I don’t have to back up an opinion…..that’s why it’s called an opinion. Last time I checked, that’s what were suppose to be doin’ right?
No one on here knows if this girl is telling the truth. Yeah it sound crazy, we all know that, but we don’t know the truth. We are simply voicing our opinions. You want me to back up a opinion, ok find, I back up my opinion with “freedom of speach” I don’t need to do research for that.
Don’t be so quick to judge on things that you don’t know for sure is all im sayin.
Not here for debating sweetie……….just voicing my opinion.
