Jay Z Shows Love Across Hip-Hop in Celebration on Twitter
by Staff Editor
It’s rare that Jay Z tweets. So when Hov hops on to let some thoughts off it’s a must see event. Today (June 15) Jay was the first rapper inducted into the songwriter’s hall of fame, one of the biggest accomplishments that any artist could achieve in the span of their career. While tributes emerged throughout the day to him from artists via his TIDAL platform, Jigga felt it was his turn to do the talking in a tweet spree that many questioned if he was drunk, which he says he wasn’t.
Opening up his stream of tweets Hov thanked the support of many and went on to name those who inspired him. The usual suspects like The Notorious B.I.G., Rakim, Tupac, Nas, Kanye West were present in his thank you session, as well as those who will be mentioned with the greats soon like Drake, J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar and Chance the Rapper. But Jay didn’t stop there, he showed that his ear is to what’s going on now by showing love to Quavo, Playboi Carti and his insanely popular “Magnolia” and Tee Grizzly with the just as heralded “First Day Out.” You name them, Hov loves them.
Check out the full love session below. Ladies and gentlemen, the GOAT.
