More quotes by Jay-Z
You could name practically any problem in the hood and there'd be a rap song for you.
Jay-Z
I use a lot of double meanings. I hide 'em like Easter eggs.
Jay-Z
Racism is taught in the home. We agree on that? Well, it's very hard to teach racism to a teenager who's listening to rap music and who idolizes, say, Snoop Dogg. It's hard to say, 'That guy is less than you.' The kid is like, 'I like that guy, he's cool. How is he less than me?
Jay-Z
My brands are an extension of me. They're close to me. It's not like running GM, where there's no emotional attachment.
Jay-Z
How could I be out there and not do anything?
Jay-Z
Now success was like lust, she's good to the touch, She's good for the moment, but she's never enough
Jay-Z
Successful people have a bigger fear of failure than people who've never done anything because if you haven't been successful, then you don't know how it feels to lose it all.
Jay-Z
Electing a black man named Barack Obama President in the same country that elected George W. Bush - twice! - is as far-fetched as a hustler from Marcy performing at that President's inauguration. But it happened.
Jay-Z
I don't even like the word politics. It implies something underhanded and I think we need less government.
Jay-Z
I got 99 Problems but Mitt ain't one.
Jay-Z
May the best of your today's be the worst of your tomorrow's
Jay-Z
The average rap life is two or three albums. You're lucky to get to your second album in rap!
Jay-Z
Don't ever go with the flow. Be the flow.
Jay-Z
If the beat is time, flow is what we do with that time, how we live through it. The beat is everywhere, but every life has to find its own flow.
Jay-Z
As fate would have it, Jay's status appears To be at an all-time high, perfect time to say goodbye When I come back like Jordan, wearing the 4-5.
Jay-Z
Ain't nothin' wrong with the aim, just gotta change the target.
Jay-Z
Only God can judge me so I'm gone, either love me or leave me alone.
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
Everybody can tell you how to do it but they never done it
Jay-Z
The day Obama got elected, the gangsta became less relevant.
