Jay-z gives good advice.
By Honeygrip
It seems like Jay-Z has been promoting grown man business for the past 12 years...
All any young, black man needs to suceed in business is a copy of Reasonable Doubt and Streets is Watching.
So when Jay-Z speaks- the kids listen...
Case in point-button ups!
Now Jay is offering a smart perspective on the harmful concept of "keeping it hood." He says:
‘I think it’s more important for me to be in touch with who I am than in touch with the streets, per se,’ he says. ‘Being in touch with the streets, keeping it real, that’s become a lie and a cliche. I’m not hanging on the corner in the Bed-Stuy. I hate it when rappers say, “I’m keeping it ‘hood.” I’m like, “Why? What do you mean? No one’s there by choice! You’re in the hood, by choice?”‘
Oh, Jay I concur...
