JAY ALREADY RESPONDED TO AND BEAT 50. HE’S PSYCHIC.

“I was gonna kill a couple rappers, but they did it to themselves/I was gon’ do it with the flow, but they did it with THEIR SALES/I was gon’ 9/11 ‘em, but they didn’t need the help/And they did a good job, them boys is talented as h*ll/’Cause not only did they BRICK, they put a building up as well/They ran a plane into that building and when that building fell/Ran to the crash site with no masks and inhaled/Toxins deep inside their lungs until both of them was filled/Blew a cloud out like an ‘L’ into a jar then took a smell/’Cause they heard that second hand smoke kills/N*ggas THOUGHT THEY WAS ILL, found out THEY WAS…ILL/And it’s like you knew exactly HOW I WANTED YOU TO FEEL.”

Ummm…Idk about the greatest battle in Hip-Hop History, but I think it would be interesting. Jay should respond.

And as far as who would win the battle, as of right now I would say Jay because his of status as of right now. In a hip hop battle, the less popular or the rapper with the lower status is already at an disadvantage. Thats now Jay allegedly “beat” Nas(despite Nas being the obiviously better lyricist.)

Really KRS? What about BIGGIE AND PAC?

Maybe the best CURRENT beef, but not in all HISTORY!

Blast Master KRS-One knows about battle.
But this would not be the greatest battle – that was already done between Jay and Nas.

I guarantee that Jay will respond but on his terms – because that is the smart thing to do. He will respond when it benefits him and try not to promote 50 record sales.
Lyrically 50 is way over his head on this one; he could not even handle Rick Ross lyrically so he started the gimmicks.
BigLou Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 2:00 pm
That would like Lebron playing David Lee in a one on one basketball gaem…Lee (50) is good at what he does but Lebron (jay) would eat him alive…………

yeah. um.. KRS.. no! jay and nas had the best battle. they actually made a couple diss songs (50 doesn’t do that) it was hugely hyped and it stayed on wax. 50 couldn’t battle jay-z lyrically. he’s have to diss beyonce, jay’s moms, and make corny little cartoon camel videos. if it was record to record 50 would be humiliated.

kRS HAS A POINT! IN THE HIP-HOP WORLD JAY VS NAS WAS THE BIGEST LYRICALLY!

BIGGIE VS. PAC WASNT A BATTLE THAT WAS REAL BEEF!!!

50 VS. JAY COULD BE BIGGER BECAUSE THE WHOLE WORLD AND MEDIA WOULD BE PAYING ATTENTION!

IF NAS WAS AS BIG A STAR AS 50 OR JAY THAT WOULD HAV BEEN DIFFERENT BUT OUTSIDE OF HIP-HOP NOBODY REALLY KNOWS WHO THE FUCK NAS IS DUMBIES!!!
Mo Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
PEOPLE ARE LIKE JAY-Z SHOULD RESPOND…

MY QUESTION IS RESPOND TO WHAT – EXACTLY?

50 HASN’T MADE A DISS RECORD WHERE HE IS “ACTUALLY” RHYMING AND “CREATING AGGRESSIVE CONTENT” THAT CAN “GENERATE” THE INTERESTE OF THE “GENERAL PUBLIC” LOL

BY THE WAY…KRS ONE IS THE DUMBEST RAPPER IN HIP HOP HISTORY.

WHY IS REALTALK NY ALWAYS HATING ON 50 CENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yessir Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 3:47 pm
eminem is above

so of course the next two biggest rapper are FIDDY and JIGGA

thus this battle would be enormous for NYCs supremacy

and for hiphop cuz even if lil wayne is the best seller right now

yall know that jigga and fiddy are on world tour, hits a

that’s a fact. krs speaks real ! teacha!!!
yessir Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 3:49 pm
that is mogul battle

cuz if u wanna a great ish

it’s eminem vs nas

but in term of money, fiddy and jayz

even if eminem is a mogul by himself it’s better a fiddy vs jigga shit

let eminem on his albums creation
Hi Hater! Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 3:54 pm
The biggest? whoa…but it would be CRAZY if they really go innn!!
we all know both of ‘em dont play fair when its time to battle
Jay ; Prodigy Picture, Fucked Nas Baby Mama, etc.
50 ; Everything he’s done to RicK Ross, how he ridiculed Fat Joe, etc.

it would be entertaining for sure!

Jay will never do it. has everything to lose and Fif is already falling so he the one who needs it

jay-z is scared to go against 50
do you see how 50 expose rick ross, dj kalid, ja-rule, and etc
jay dont wanna do that!
F.Brown Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 4:52 pm
KRS-One has officially lost it. The Jay-Z and Nas battle could never be topped by a Jay-Z and Fif battle. I mean Jay-Z said it himself, lol! “I’m about a dollar, with the fuck is 50 Cents?” Additionally, Fif would lose miserably and Jay would be cited as a bully and gain nothing from crushing Fif’s dwindling rap career.
BK BRAWLER Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 5:05 pm
#24 BROWN YOUR A SMALL MINDED IDIOT! JAY WOULD CRUSH 50 BUT 50 IS A BIGGER WORLD WIDE STAR THAN NAS! THAT ALONE MAKES IT A BIGGER BATTLE! KRS DIDNT SAY BEST HE SAID BIGGEST!

YOU PEOPLE ARE DUMB!

See… NA SmakesTRUTH music Not gangster, not positive, not pop…Yes his music is sometimes gangster cause its truth, yes its sometimes positive cause its truth, See what the other musicians like Jay-z, LilWayne, kanye, etc do is perform magic. What magic does is hide the truth it puts your attention on something else, (A hot beat or some ass shaking or some exciting style so you cant see the trick, it’s a very convincing illusion. So they stop being musicians and become magicians…see im a student of human nature, I conduct moral audits of human virtue. I compile descriptions of various people, And my assumption are seldom wrong. I don’t look at thees niggas. I look in them. And they’re poisoned. Witch means infected.They suck. There rhymes are wack. You think its good music because you get distracted and blinded by the magic. More people would follow magic before divine power any day. You cant see divine power, you can not hear it, you only feel it. And being that no one is in touch with them selves, they feel nuffin… I want you to do some thing. I want you to watch BET and put it on mute. That way none of the magic can clog your ears. Look at these niggas you say are hot, I mean really look at them. You’ll see how gay they really are. See most niggas cant listen to nas because they cant even listen to them selves. The further you run away from illness( Divine power from within) the more exhausted you are when it catches up to you.

What about Nas and Hov lol ?

KRS-1 already took an L to Nelly of all people, he needs to shut his bitch ass up

Jay-Z would put the nail in the coffin to 50 cent’s career, even Lil Wayne would body 50 if he cared about beefing wit niggas, only 50 care about this beef shit in 2010.
Aruba Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 5:59 pm
it would be the greatest battle if eminem stepped in

actually the greatest battle would be Em VS Nas
like i wan see that shit
shaaady Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 6:03 pm
KRS-1 is right, as always. I think he’s a mad smart guy.

Now for my opinion:
50 Cent has Eminem and Lloyd Banks as backup. Two best lyricists at the moment. Even your guys beloved Lil Wayne can’t keep up with that team. Sorry

But as for 1 on 1 50 vs Jay-Z? Whats the point? Two fed niggers who both lost their talent when they got money, at least 50s new album shows he still remembers it, but neither of em are hungry or raw anymore. Id rather see Banks vs Wayne
likeabite Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 6:29 pm
I think this would be great…and I don’t think Jay would win easily…look at their battle histories and look at who won…lyrically 50 crushed some of his competition…Jay-Z crushed some of his too…but Ja was the top artist when 50 destroyed him…Mobb Deep wasn’t top anything and he didn’t do nothing to Nas…so let’s be honest…if they both want to go at it lyrically and be serious you can’t tell me it’d be lopsided…if you say that then you’re being jaded and naiive.
sdot Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 6:41 pm
Am I the only one who is getting tired of em? I mean he was nice when he released Marshal mathers but dude fell off hard. That’s why him and 50 cent are so wack now they still spitting the same old tired shit. And em is def in my top 5 and i do have all his albums except encore but em fell off hard he is no longer creative. And the best battle would def be Nas vs jadakiss or something but jay vs 50 cent is too easy

November 20th, 2009 at 6:42 pm
yo krs1 get the fuck outta here wit your lopsided senile opinions about a game that has passed u by, this from the same guy who says he makes 10 diss records a yr for the top ten rappers just inncase they want beef????
in order to fully understand krs1 position u have to know that he was the 50cent of his era, he was tryin to get in the game for a lil minute and he couldn’t get in the door, then he took the most popular crew in rap at that time, and singled out the weakest rapper in that crew and dissed him with south bronx, causing a frenzy that led to his rise to stardom, he then made a second diss record using actual rhymes from willie nelson ( yes the country singer) and made the bridge is over which birthed his career, and afterwords he went on to be a successful rapper. so he clearly sees the draw from 50s point of view. too bad everyone else sees jayz point of view and he doesn’t need 50 so he can shine, all he needs is his rhymes. that’s real hiphop right there
D-90 Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 6:52 pm
Fif would destroy Hov on diss tracks, if there’s 1 thing 50 does better than damn near every other rapper out, its makin hard hittin diss tracks
Macika Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 6:52 pm
wow. so many of yall talking about Kris -1 is this or that. I guarantee you….NONE and i repeat NONE of todays or yesterdays rappers will TRY KRS-One. Y?? Because they dont call him the TEACHER for nothing. people are so stuck on Jayz or Nas this. Or Biggie and pac that. Where do you think they learned what they did????? They ddnt just wake up or come out the womb, rhymin and battling!! Cmon yall. Get your studies up. Ask people in their mid 30’s n 40’s about rap/hiphop in their day and what they remember from it and WHO was big back then and WHO was battling WHO. YOU MUST LEARN…………….
balaramesh Says:
November 20th, 2009 at 7:38 pm
krs1 is a legend. it’s hard to even question “the teacher”. however, this is quite senile to even think that battle could be more interesting than a game of touch football.

no disrespect, but fiddy vs jay z would be like lebron or kobe vs the best 5′6 middle school baller in the u.s.

jay z is like a super heavyweight lyrically vs fiddy’s flyweighweight division.

Classic lines off a BluePrint 2, Off of BluePrint 2 the album.

Jay-Z this, Jay-Z that Jay-Z won’t hold my hand no more
Jay-Z this, Jay-Z that
Jay-Z that, Jay-Z this (Jay-Z won’t give me no money)
Get off Jay-Z dick
What y’all niggas get front page articles, y’all mention Jay-Z name
Jay-Z, Jay-Z, in Jay-Z news
I understand what y’all trying to do

“I’ve been real all my life, they confuse it with conceit
Since I will not lose, they try to help him cheat”.

50 has wasted his whole career dissing on wax and internet. He has no substance. Tupac who is known for a diss song or two, had a career that was more evolved than just music and diss songs. For every diss from Tupac there was 5 joints that made you look past his beefs. When we see 50 we see beef, nothing but recycled BS. We hiphop fans have seen this to the point where it has gotten stale. Like Jay-z says, rap beef is starting to get like WWF.

Jigga could never catch a fair one in any battle.

G-UNIT!

I think Jay is scared of 50. To say your not scared pretty much says you are – but I think Jay’s time has come. Beans is a little whiny- but I think he’s hurt because he had so much love and admiration for Jay as FAM — La Familia. But Jay did not share that — he’s all for himself. Fam helps Fam stay out of jail. 50 — wants the throne so bad. Business or no business Jay has messed over alot of his ROC folks and the time has come to meet your seeds. What you plant will surely come back on you. 50 cent is in a better position than Jay for this battle because he has mastered and probably has things already in place to combat anything Jay Z will come at him with. Jay is a smart dude, but 50 is heartless when it comes to getting back at someone. This is this dudes blood — so Jay better think — (which I’m sure he will) because this will only help 50– but it may cost Jay a period on his legacy. Remember when Nas was at the top Jay came after him – Jay didn’t get the recognition until then. This battle will be good for hiphop – but someone’s career is going up and the other is going down.

Damn you idiots are just idiots! Get off of Jay Z dick long enough to see the truth! Jay isn’t going against 50. It isn’t because he know he can tear him up lyrically, it’s because 50 is ruthless and won’t back down. 50 will bring out all kinds of skeletons in Jays closet. MF’s get so caught up in idolizing and don’t pay attention. That’s the only reason Jay isn’t taking 50’s bait because he know what shit will come out and Jay isn’t trying to ruin his reputation with whitey right now! 50 hit it on the head when he said during an interview that if Jay gets in real trouble, him and Beyonce will be dumped. They don’t have nobody to back them up.
