In November of 2005 he finally squashed with former foe Nas a rapper from Queens. The next year he released his his 10th album Kingdom Come. The name describes himself Mr. Carter considers himself the Michael Jordan of recording. Back to the 10 LPs most of his cds have gone Platinum or multi-platinum. Here are some of his most famous songs, "Hard Knock Life" "Big Pimpin'" and "Change Clothes" Most people know him by the kind acts that he has done by traveling all over the world to support aids in africa and ethiopia.

Not only does he sell records, but he sells clothing including the clothing line entitled Roca-Wear and the shoe-line Pro-Keds. If you did not know who he was before well now you know.

Jay-Z is a hip hop artist and an entrepreneur with his own clothing line. For me personally he is the best rapper in the game today. I am glad that he opted to come out of retirement and drop his new album kingdom come. I personally think that Kingdom Come has been his best album release out of all his albums he has released in the past. If you want the truth you listen to young hove. By the way 30 is the new 20.

Jay-Z?? Call him Hov, J-Hova, Jayz, Jazzy, S Carter, Jigga Man, Jigga or whatever. For me he is what he says he is: the God MC. Like he never wrote his songs, everything he sings is from memory.
