Is JT's "Suit & Tie" Jay-Z's worse verse of all time?

Only one person calling it his best.

Everyone else is stating that it's a good, at worst okay verse.

Yeah, I know. Just for the record, I'm mostly just messing around. I don't really care about people's taste in crappy Jay verses. You have to live with that on your head, not me.
 
White shoes for the black shows

All black for the white shows

It's not that bad, nothing special.

His worst feature is on a remix of Rick Ross' Hustlin':

Hold up
Who you haters think you talkin' to, I'm the fuckin' boss
White on white, G4, hater get lost
I'm in the air I don't hear niggas corny raps
Ya nigga Hov is back, that nigga Hov is back
I got a honey bun, no not a chick
I got a honey bun, millions nigga I got couple hundred them

Ninety-nine problems prick, don't become the hundredth one
'Less you got a hundred lives murder bout a hundred, uh
We don't resort to violence, we on resorts and islands
With linen shorts and shades, 'case they thought you was lyin'
My Louis slippers, Polo top
Linen shorts so my balls don't get hot, ha ha
Yeah I balls a lot, now I owns the team
Ricky Ross, Young Jeezy we owns the scene
Stop playin' with me lames y'all not my equal
It ain't no coincidence that my age is a kilo
Which means that I'm pordo, which means that I'm gordo
Which means that I use a G4, like in auto
I'm a walkin' memorial
I'm legendary for whippin' whippin' that raw
So nigga just let that chorus go


Honey buns and sweaty balls. That's his worst. And even then it's not bad compared to a lot of what else is out there.
 
"Young Forever" is by far a worse song. Jay Z has no flow or lyrical ability and it's really a high production song wasted on a completely incompetent rapper.
 
Yeah Monsters a good verse from an older jay.

Of course his older stuff has many, many songs that exceed what he spit on Monster.
 
His flow was on point.. at least for the first half of his verse. The lyrics are pretty garbo though. He peaked with the first Blueprint imo. Haven't been into anything he's made since.

Tryin' to stay alive, hundred thou' for the bracelet
Foolish, ain't I? The chain'll strain ya eye
Twin platinum gun, son, aim for the sky
Ice on my bullet, you die soon as I pull it

This is pretty up there as far as worst anything from Jay-Z.
 
It's pretty bad. And it's long and bad. At least with most bad verses, they're short enough but it feels like it drags on for more than 16 bars.
 
The OP obviously hasn't listened to The Black Album or The Blueprint. God, those albums sucked.

See now I don't know if some of you are fucking around or being serious. You're gonna have to explain how and why you think the Blueprint is a terrible album because near every human on planet Earth agrees that shit is a hip hop classic.
 
It's much easier to narrow down his wack shit than to state his best shit ever. He's certainly not getting better with age.
 
it's god fucking awful that's all i know

and the monster verse is alright but then minaj comes on and spits fire so it feels a bit tame in comparison

I can't even handle y'all right now. The only thing spitting fire from Minaj is her pink friday.
 
Jay-Z's bad verse ain't got nothing on Birdman in "Money to Blow." It's like he had a stroke and is learning how to speak again.

Richer than the Riches
We certified gettin' it
CM YM Cash Money business
Higher than the ceiling
Fly like a bird
Hit the Gucci store and later get served
We smoked out, with no roof on it
Them people passin' so we smash on em'
Bindin out we keep the cash on deck
Lamborghini and them Bentleys on the v-set
Loui lense iced up with the black diamonds
Cardier, Ferarri the new Spyder
No lie, I'm higher than I ever been
Born rich, born uptown, born to win
Fully loaded, automatic 6 Benz
Candy paint, foreign lights but my bitch in
Born hustlin', too big nigga to size me up
Kept stuntin', more money, burn it up
 
Jay's guest verses on College Dropout (when he was "retired," I think) are definitely his worst.



Content-wise I guess it's cute and clever and all, but his delivery is so slow and weird on this verse (not to mention the guy yelling THE ROC IS IN THE BUILDING at the beginning, which makes me laugh every time). I'm a huge Ye/Jay stan but I've never enjoyed this verse. There's also something really amusing about the toughest boast/threat he could come up with here is mace.

Also, people hating on the Monster verse? Blasphemy, that verse is amazing.

Damn, I hate his verse on this so much. Felt like it didn't fit on the track at all.
 
When you hang around Kayne West so much the quality of your work is bound to go to shit.

Only a matter of time really.
