Jay-Z Bites from Nas

I discovered yesterday as I was listening to Illmatic, I heard Nas's "The World Is Yours" and I heard the line:
"Wipe off my sweat, spit the phlegm in the street/Suede Timbs on my feet..Make my cypher complete/".
And as I thought about it, in Jay-Z's "What More Can I Say" he said "S Dot's on my feet make my cypher complete/What more can I say Guru play the beat/". And Nas was reported to have said he never gave anyone permission to sample from his lines. Very fishy, eh?

Jay-Z, Nas Fued Continues Secretly

Also, while watching videos one day I saw the "Quick TO Back Down" video. The hook seemed to go after Jigga. But I heard something that really convinced me: "Rappers and their CEO's go in the rap cemetery". He only has had beef with Jigga and Dame his whole career. But as I listened to "Encore" I heard: "When I come back like Jordan, wearing the 45, it ain't to play games with you/It's to aim at you/Probably maim you/If I owe you, I'm blowing you to smitherines/Cocksucker, take one for your team".
Once again, this sounfds very fishy. Tell me what you think of that?

Damn.. Interesting shit..

Dont think Jay bit tho.. Just co-incidence..

I think he did seeing as to how he gave props to Illmatic in Takeover. But no matter what, Jigga is still the best of all time and my favorite.

^^No doubt.. he illest in the game ever..

As far as "make my cypher complete" thats not a bite thats what you call a quote see you have to understand the difference between biting and quoting and the most common difference is how much is actually used. Jay used half a line and the thing about this is Nas and Jay aint really beefin no more. It's no secretive thing...besides Jay's retiring and has been quoting shit his whole career. It's like this...if someone else used the line b4, and everyone knows it you wouldnt even call it biting because it's obvious and a well known line like all the Big shit Jay spat.

NOW...in Encore...Jay's just referring himself (like he's done 198120983091283012983 times) to Micheal Jordan. "When I comeback like Jordan (how MJ came back I thought he was hinting at a possible return) Wearing the 45 (when MJ came back he sported #45...which is also a gun!) It aint to play games witchu, it's to aim atchu (he's saying that when he mentions the 45 he's not referring to basketball but to the weapon) Prolly maim you, if I owe you I'm blowin you to smitherens, cock sucka take one for ya team (ehh...I dunno everything that nigga be talkin bout I think he was just finishin his lines)

But the Encore line seems fishy seeing as to how him and Jaz-O squashed theirs after the Freestyles Jay did in response to the Nothin freestyle by Jaz. And Jay never really had beef with anyone else.

Oh, I forgot in What More Can I Say, when he talked about 50 Cent, Nas, and Busta, it made me kinda suspicious

"Or make up shit in a whole bunch of lines"--He already made mentions of that in Takeover. Kinda fishy, eh?

dodgy...........

Yes. I think the same way.

Well this is his last album and he is the "best" so he reserves right to say

"I aint got shot at a whole bucha times-50 Cent"
"Or make up shit in a whole buncha lines-Queensbridge niggas"
"And I aint animated like say a Busta Rhymes-BusterHymen"

"And I aint animated like say a Busta Rhymes-BusterHymen"

LOL

LMFAO AT BUSTER HYMEN....hahahaha

but damn...jay bites or "pays homage "to big and nas and pac..lol

hes still crazy ILL

I already said that. I got nothing agains Hov. He's my idol and the best of all-time. But it's just something that I noticed sharply.

Hmmm
Bitin- not cool
speccialy wit celebrities...

^^No doubt.. he illest in the game ever..
^^ nah, mate, i don't agree at all

horribley overrated imo

PZ>

If not already realized by the public jay's smarter than what he leads on remember his early carrear when he dropped ridicilous flow and content on the track "Dead Presidents" part 1. Thats how he wants to re-enter the game at his level of intellect he relizes that the money, cash, hoes theme sells but at the same time the "vibe remains in his vains" true hip-hop stills remains in Jay he no longer can recite the expected lyics for the public. In doing so he just eagerly waits for the game to change form when knowledge, anguish, intellect, and explicit flow are the congers of the music. This is where he will return. Ya wanna know why "It's only so long fake thugs can pretend".

People bite each other all the time. They even have a monthly section in XXL magazine called "Heard it all before" where it shows the borrower, and the lender.
People have Bitten the line "I got you stuck off the realness, we be the infamous/ Ya heard of us, official Queensbridge Murderers/"

they just switch some words around IE - Ma i got u stuck off the realness, the names fabolous/ ya heard of me, blah blah blah"

so it aint a big deal, if peeps dont wanna be creative, thats their own fault

^^Good point..
