Yo i swear yall some real live haters that come on this website. dis nigga said he dont want wayne on a classic lp, what the fuck who are you, him being on there may be one of the reasons why it maybe a classic. shit if JAYZ was feelin him enough to put him on there who the fuck are you to say he is not good enough to be on there. seriously STOP HATIN shit its getting outta control. the same niggas was on wayne’s dick before 50 said that shit about him. and guess what yall the same ones waiting for the CARTER 3. Im not ridin wayne but its because of niggas like yall why hiphop wont return and sell the way it used to. niggas dont like to see changes. wayne is on top of the game face it its his time let him shine damn. Props to Jayz for noticing who is killin da game right now=WAYNE.
October 15th, 2007 at 11:51 pm

October 15th, 2007 at 11:51 pm

October 15th, 2007 at 11:52 pm

October 15th, 2007 at 11:58 pm
not a good look for jay to get wayne on that….but the album looks fiyahh
October 16th, 2007 at 12:37 am
Jay is argueably the GREATEST
I wont get my hopes up thought
Even though I’ve liked EVERYTHING I’ve heard so far
btw
Not digging the Fact that Lil’ Wayne is on
Nor do I like that theres no DP3
October 16th, 2007 at 12:41 am

I hit refresh three is it just my computer or does that really say lil wayne if so thats crazy.
October 16th, 2007 at 12:49 am
three **times***
October 16th, 2007 at 2:05 am
I dont trust this list at ALL…and where’s Dead Presidents 3, or was that just some mixtape shit?
October 16th, 2007 at 2:23 am
U GOTTA BE JOKIN LIL WAYNE ON BOSS HOVA’S ALBUM AFTER TRYIN TO INSULT JAY LAST YEAR WHAT THE HELL DID KANYE TELL BIG BROTHER
October 16th, 2007 at 2:44 am
I’m praying that Lil Wayne is not on the album.
October 16th, 2007 at 3:11 am
WTF I don’t believe that but if it is true I hope the track is fire. Jay will finally prove that Wayne ain’t on his level even if Wayne does come out better on the track (which will never happen) Jay is still the greatest.

Where is Dead Presidents 3 ?
October 16th, 2007 at 4:26 am
aint that a bitch…. lil wayne on there.. got u niggas all messed up right?? hahaha beyonce’s
October 16th, 2007 at 4:32 am
They both would try to go so hard on that track. I doubt he on the album unless Universal stepped in and paid Hov big bucks. Remember wayne album is set to release 12/18 and he aint really got a single buzzing yet. That would be a good look to be on Hov album. Niggas might see it as a passing of the torch lol.
October 16th, 2007 at 5:03 am
That’s what I’m saying #15. Maybe it’s going to be on his next album.
October 16th, 2007 at 5:21 am
to the idiot that said that waynes record label paid camel to be oh his album how could u say something so stupid u sound like a straight up dickrider why the hell would u pay someone to be on “their “album after u dissed them i’ve been a fan of hip hop for ages and never heard anyone pay someone other then for that person to be a guest on album not the other way around that was insane. go read a book kid.
October 16th, 2007 at 5:21 am
sign at #6
October 16th, 2007 at 5:41 am
Lil Wayne is a whore. Jay pimped him to be on the chorus. lol
October 16th, 2007 at 5:49 am
i Hope Wayne murders Jay on that track then the old man can finally hang it up.
WTF is he having a man kissing rapper on this album for anyway??
thats some dumb shit
October 16th, 2007 at 5:50 am
if wayne is on this then I’m not buying it…..fuck you doing Hov?
October 16th, 2007 at 5:53 am
LIL WAYNE ON THE ALBUM?
NOT BUYING IT THEN
October 16th, 2007 at 6:17 am
I donno but Jay stays relevant so why not have Weezy. Gotta admit I tried my best not to like him but Weezy makes me laugh and all the concert videos i’ve seen of him are sick. Jay knows he will push crazy units by letting people know this beef is dead. Rap is becoming the WWE but I don’t care as long as Jay releases an album every 4th quarter!!
Jay-Z American Gangster –
A Classic Album to be released November 6
October 16th, 2007 at 6:21 am
cuz lil wayne on a track u not buyin it. u lil kids, they not beefin. he say-she say iz a ßîtçh. grow up & listen 2 music cuz its good not cuz u don’t like such & such. why don’t u get on the mic & let us hear u flow.
October 16th, 2007 at 6:32 am
Where Dead Prez 3 at!!!
October 16th, 2007 at 6:39 am
knowin’ how J is…as far as being one of the tightest businessmen in hip hop…dont you know how many more albums would be sold if he had lil wayne on it? Dont get me wrong…i think wayne is garbage..and i agree there is no place for him on J’s “could be classic”…but as for marketing…could be a hella move by J ; )
October 16th, 2007 at 6:42 am
idk how “legit” this track list is ne-wayz…cuz i heard that Roc Boys was supposed to be taken off last week.
**shrug** who knows…i do know a lot of artist put these fakeazz lists out to smokescreen illegal downloaders.
October 16th, 2007 at 7:08 am
Y’all believe EVERYTHING you read or hear. I’ll believe it when Jay says it.
October 16th, 2007 at 7:09 am
yo jay wut da fuck r u doin….dont but dat bum weezy faggot baby on da album, dudes a cornball
October 16th, 2007 at 7:46 am
What The Fuck Wayne is on there. I think the song would be hot. But I think that he sould not be on the album. Wanye sould be on one of Jigga mixtape’s. Because by Wanye on the album that is going to start some shit by people who get the album and DJ’s and the whole Hip-Hop game. By people sayin Wanye is hotter then Jigga or Jigga is hotter then Wayne. I go with Jigga all the way by sayin Jigga is more of a MC then Wayne but other people might not think the some thing…… And the shit with Nas is goin to be some
Hip-Hop History shit. That shit will be hot with Nas. And the shit with Beanie Sigel is goin to be hot.
October 16th, 2007 at 7:46 am
i hope this surpasses his last album in matters of quality. cus jay disappointed me with kingdom come.
October 16th, 2007 at 7:49 am
wayne better not be on this album what the hell this a concept album what does brooklyn and wayne have to do with the damn movie? man jay i can’t fuck with yo album if you doing dumb shit like this my nigga fuck is wrong with you
(in andre 300 voice)don’t do it, reconsider, read some literature, are you sure on the subject ?..
naw but iam mad ass hell tho man fuck are you doing is this nigga on blows huh? i hope this is false i sholl want be playing track num4 iam still copping cause even tho i can’t stand jay right now i still wannna hear his shit and he still the best and always will be
this how the song gon begin> weezy f baby,yeah jigga, please say the baby ,hov!
just a lot of yalling
unless weezy gon sing the hook and some playas circle shit ..
October 16th, 2007 at 7:53 am
Smh I can feel the hate. People never want to see others advance and prosper. The people love Wayne and he’s hot right now give the man his due respect already. If he wasn’t spitting fire do you think Jay would sign off on it? Think….
October 16th, 2007 at 8:00 am
# 40 naw it an’t that this shit can only make shit worse iam telling you if this is correct i promise you all it can do is harm jay or wayne in the end no good can come from this it should have been some type of warning or something other than that can’t no good at all come from this thiers only 5 out of 10 who like both artist other than that it’s war u can bet on it
October 16th, 2007 at 8:18 am

I love the over aggressive internet tough talk that ends with the suggestion of reading a book lol. Anyway the statement was made because Universal Music Group, you know the parent company for Def Jam well they are the parent company for Cash Money also. Nobody said wayne paid Hov to be on the album. But maybe you were busy reading a book and didnt see my post that good.
Its called good business strategy. But im just a kid in his early 20’s so what do I know about business lol. And wtf does dissing have to do with anything now adays. Juelz is on Def Jam and he diss Hov.
October 16th, 2007 at 8:32 am
^^^^^^^is this chick serious????? anyway, i feel you ms pink, hell this can make some of the youngstas wanna listen to the album. wayne is hot right now and why not have people who are hot on your shit? how can that hurt jay? can anything hurt Jay at this point? hell naw
October 16th, 2007 at 8:42 am
Jay is a sucka, i told u niggas, he on wayne dick, he love wayne style, nigga has no buzz and he droppin in 3 weeks so u know he tryin to get publicity and he hop on the dick of the hottest rapper out.
October 16th, 2007 at 8:45 am
Cosign with Juicy…Hov is thinking strategically…He’s only strengthening the sales of his album and the timeframe of “who is hot right now”, by putting Weezy on his album…Similar to what Ye did when he put T Pain/Weezy on his album…It’s like a time capsule for the future…Smart move indeed…
October 16th, 2007 at 8:56 am
NIGGA HAS NO BUZZ
October 16th, 2007 at 9:00 am
the comment was not for pounce it was for alicia
October 16th, 2007 at 9:03 am
whatever….yall think it’s a good strategy now but i promise when that shit leaks an’t no good gon come from it mark my words
October 16th, 2007 at 9:06 am
I like how all of a sudden niggas is hatin on wayne.. hahaha ya niggas could go suck dicks dat nigga spits fire ya digg.
October 16th, 2007 at 9:07 am
im glad wayne is on the album cant wait to hear it…
October 16th, 2007 at 9:11 am
that nigga has no buzz so he got to put weezy on a track, NY lost
October 16th, 2007 at 9:14 am
i aint coppin after seein that garbage on there…good luck, if he tryin to market his album to 15 year olds, then the idea of this album being a concept one doesnt cant be that sincere…which was one of the only reasons i was going to get it.
respect hov, but i cant put my dollars on the guy- especially after KC and now wayne…lol
nahhh
October 16th, 2007 at 9:17 am
This is going to be the best CD of the year. You all asked for REAL HIP HOP & The Realest delivered. Now support it! I will say that I dont agree at with Wayne being on the album.
October 16th, 2007 at 9:22 am
Lil Wayne conciders himself a student of Jay-Zs whole style n everything he’s said it before. I’m sure Jay as a mentor is just reaching out to a younger cat who he thinks is tearing it up. Its a good look
From reading all the comments all I can say is:
FUCK EVERYBODY FROM NEWYORK!! U FAGGOT ASS BITCHES! YALL SAY HIP HOP IS DEAD BUT U WONT BUY JAY-Z ALBUM CUZ HE HAS WAYNE FEATURED ON IT??
New York doesn’t know real hip hop, all they know is beef and hate. That’s why yall couldnt get your shit together n soulja is tappin that ass
Support real hip hop – Jay -Z.
October 16th, 2007 at 9:34 am
I just hope he dont say ” Weezy F. Baby please say the baby..” no more. thats gay.
October 16th, 2007 at 9:47 am
im a huge hov fan, but if this is a true tracklist of the album, and wayne is on it i feel as that instead of promoting him in ur cd how bout the cats the are signed under you (def jam,rocafella) and give them some shine..wayne is straight trash “im twisted like a bag of ropes” enough said..
I AM HIP HOP
October 16th, 2007 at 10:08 am
i agree wit sum of what ya’ll are saying about wayne being on the album but i cant believe ya’ll would believe this.
remember when graduation was about a month away from dropping there was fake track listings and fake album covers. dont believe this since when do people release the tracklistings. this is like switching cars 4 or 5 times cuz the feds is watching you, u got throw the internet feens in another direction real quick.
if u a real hov fan and u been listening closely since reasonable doubt u know theres no way lil wayne is on this album. i’m dissapointed in sum of ya’ll for believing the hype
October 16th, 2007 at 11:01 am
POUNCE U ARE STILL A MORON UNIVERSAL WILL NOT PAY ANOTHER LABEL TO HAVE AN ARTIST MAKE A SONG FOR THAT “OTHER”PERSONS ALBUM… IT MAKES NO SENSE.SO UR THEORY IS STILL STUPID.
AND SO WHAT JUELZ WAS ON DEF JAM BEFORE HAY BECAME PRES. HE DOESN’T “OWN” DEF JAM. AND WHATS UR POINT ARE THEY ON EACH OTHERS ALBUMS….. NO,DIDN’T THINK SO. READ LIL NIGGA.
October 16th, 2007 at 11:04 am
LOL@ post 18
the track will be fire. Wayne along with guys like Lupe, Saigon, Pap, Ortiz, CrookedI, Chamillionaire are some of the young cats that we should be wishing well because they focusing on the lyrcism part of rap. So stop hating on these nyggas just because the older dudes are losing passion for this shyt.

This is going to be the best CD of the year. ?
Common got that son,If he put Lil Wayne on the album its only for his buzz and not his talent, I won’t be copping this shit album looks made weak. I throught Blue Magic was suppose to be lead single also ? this look bullshit….
October 16th, 2007 at 11:41 am
i understand wht u sayin alicia, it may not help, i just dont see how it can hurt.
October 16th, 2007 at 11:50 am

Opinion’s are like assholes, everybody has one. So if you dont agree with mines it don’t mean shit lol.
Hov told me a lot through his albums over the years and a couple things I never forget I will put below with my own twist.
1.”don’t argue with fools, cause people in blogs cant tell who is who”
2. “Little internet thugs, yall all need hugs”
3. “Oh you not feelin me fine, it cost you nothin pay me no mind”
American Gangster, Hovember 6th!
October 16th, 2007 at 12:52 pm
I’m willing to guanrantee Lil Wayne is not rapping on this album. He may be on the hook, which was probably sampled, but he is not rapping on this album. Beans is on the album because Hov has always had mad respect for Beans’ style and to help push Beans’ cd in December. Plus, he’s on a remix, so who cares? Nas is on the album because he liked “Success” so much that he requested to be on the song, and he’s a legend. What are you going to do, say no? Lil Wayne is not rapping on the album! Since the Blueprint, name one rapper who has made an album actually rapping. I’ll help you. Emenim, that’s it. (Not counting Blueprint 2 and Best of Both Worlds, both compilation albums)
Just watch and see…
One
October 16th, 2007 at 1:22 pm
jay-z is one of the best if not the best… but roc boys song is trash.. and w/out the video, that black magic shit is trash too… jay hasnt came out w/ a hot song for his single since black album
October 16th, 2007 at 1:33 pm
wuz it just me or wuz wayne baraly keeping up with kanye on barry bonds. Jay has been known 2 heavily dumb down hiz lyrics. If jay dumbs it down enuff and wayne cums really hard may b he wont get embarrassed. it would b pretty funny if jay makes an ass out of wayne…lol
October 16th, 2007 at 1:36 pm
There’s no way dat nigga Wayne gon be on the album. Let alone a song called Brooklyn.
I’m hoping all the real Jay fans out there knew that.
October 16th, 2007 at 2:12 pm
ha who in the hell is talkin about this brooklyn song saying they already dont like it? that is a true hater. YOu havent even heard the song yet niggas stop sayin dumb shit. and i hope yall know that wayne and hov have been cool all along. i wouldnt be surprised if jay waas the one to tell wayne to go at him a little. once your at the top and even if your not (which happens a lot) you have to feel that your the best and that no1 else can fuck with you. i dont care if its your mom you have to go at, it has to happen, get over it. yall niggas must not even like music period. hov-maybe the greatest rapper ever and wayne-the hottest thing in hip hop today on the same track??!!? are you serious? you arent ready to bang to that? GTFOH!!! hopefully this is true and if not im sure the album will still be fire. you haters need to find somethin else to do with your time
October 16th, 2007 at 2:15 pm
Wayne on the album… FUCK NO!!! PLEEEEASSSSSEE SAY IT AINT SO
October 16th, 2007 at 6:53 pm
whoeva 54 iz death 2 ur fam…word 2 mother.bastard
October 16th, 2007 at 8:01 pm
There’s no way Lil’ Wayne makes the album, when a couple years he claimed Jay-Z was his favorite rapper, the best rapper alive n his idol n then a year later he disses him? I dont think so! Hov forgives sometimes but doesnt forget!!!
October 16th, 2007 at 10:15 pm
lol wayne on da album is a joke if jay get him on da album he is a sellout i hope he dont have wayne on there and just keeps nas and beans thats y i respect 50 gangsta he would neva do a song wit niggaz that try and diss him period and thats how its suppose to be…
VITAMIN WATER PEOPLE TRY IT…
October 17th, 2007 at 5:06 am
