Everyone needs a chance to evolve.
Jay-Z
If your dad died before you were born, yeah, it hurts — but it’s not like you had a connection with something that was real. Not to say it’s any better — but to have that connection and then have it ripped away was, like, the worst. My dad was such a good dad that when he left, he left a huge scar. He was my superhero.
Jay-Z
Men lie, women lie, numbers dont
Jay-Z
It was a very intense and stressful situation. There was playing in the Johnny-pump (an opened fire hydrant) and the ice-cream man coming around and all of these games that we'd play, and suddenly it would turn just violent and there would be shootings at 12 in the afternoon on any given day.

Jay-Z
I think the consumption of music is at an all-time high. But I think the ways that record companies are trying to monetize it is just all over the place. At the end of the day, music is in the clouds. Before, you could hold it, look at it, turn it around. Now, it's just in the air.
Jay-Z
I will not lose, for even in defeat/There's a valuable lesson learned, so it evens up for me
Jay-Z
You not feeling me, fine. It costs you nothing, pay me no mind.
Jay-Z
May the best of your today's be the worst of your tomorrow's
Jay-Z
If I don't show the world growth, how are we going to grow?
Jay-Z
Their gunnin' for me, want to see me fall, you know my story, been through it all, times I felt like dyin', but I ain't cryin', what didn't kill me, makes me strong as iron.
Jay-Z
I believe you can speak things into existence.
Jay-Z
I smoked some weed, and that's how I finished 'Izzo.'
Jay-Z
Everybody can tell you how to do it but they never done it
Jay-Z
Be true to yourself- and keep things simple. People complicate things
Jay-Z
Everybody look at you strange, say you changed Like you work that hard to stay the same.

Without the work, the magic won’t come.
