More quotes by Jay-Z
When you listen to an album, it shouldn't feel like, That's the girl song, That's the club song. I shouldn't know what you're thinking while you're making the song. I don't want to know what the artist is thinking.
Jay-Z
I'm hungry for knowledge. The whole thing is to learn every day, to get brighter and brighter.
Jay-Z
If skills sold truth be told I'd probably be lyrically Talib Kweli Truthfully I want to rhyme like Common Sense (But I did five Mil) I ain't been rhyming like Common since.
Jay-Z
The day Obama got elected, the gangsta became less relevant.
Jay-Z
Leave a mark they can't erase, neither space nor time.
Jay-Z
For me, the challenge is just making great albums, because talent - and writing in general - is not tangible. There's no expiration date on it. At the same time, you might wake up tomorrow and be unable to write music.
Jay-Z
Artists can have greater access to reality they can see patterns and details and connections that other people, distracted by the blur of life, might miss. Just sharing that truth can be a very powerful thing.
Jay-Z
I believe you can speak things into existence.
Jay-Z
Difficult takes a day Impossible takes a week I do this in my sleep
Jay-Z
If I don't show the world growth, how are we going to grow?
Jay-Z
When I come back like Jordan, wearing the 4-5. It ain't to play games with you, it's to aim at you, probably maim you. If I owe you I'm blowin' you to smithereens.
Jay-Z
Ain't nothin' wrong with the aim, just gotta change the target.
Jay-Z
Don't tell me what was said about me. Tell me why they were so comfortable to say it to you.
Jay-Z
You ain't gotta go to church to find your God.
Jay-Z
That's why this generation is the least racist generation ever. You see it all the time. Go to any club. People are intermingling, hanging out, having fun, enjoying the same music. Hip-hop is not just in the Bronx anymore. It's worldwide. Everywhere you go, people are listening to hip-hop and partying together. Hip-hop has done that.
Jay-Z
You know the type: loud as a motorbike but wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight.
Jay-Z
Men lie, women lie, numbers dont
Jay-Z
The most amazing feeling I feel Words can't describe what I'm feeling for real Maybe I paint the sky blue My greatest creation was you.
Jay-Z
Niggas pray and pray on my downfall, But every time I hit the ground I bounce up like round ball
Jay-Z
In trouble waters I had to learn how to float
Jay-Z
