QUOTE Kanye West has blown rap mogul Jay-Z's big comeback surprise by announcing he's on board to produce the Def Jam Records boss' next project. Jay-Z announced his retirement in 2003, and has been dogged by rumours of a comeback ever since. He has always maintained he has no plans to return to the charts, but now West, who produced his The Blueprint album, reveals the rap boss is staging a comeback in an interview in the new issue of men's magazine Playboy. The Jesus Walks hitmaker says: "I'm producing Jay-Z's new album. I'm doing the whole thing." And when interviewer Rob Tannenbaum reveals Jay-Z once offered to pay him $1,000 (€836) if he ever came out of retirement, West tells the journalist: "Well, he's about to pay." f**k hip hop hip hop sucks what is the next gimmick since beef is played out rappers are deciding to retire and come back?? honestly now its not cause the economys down hip hop is really sorta wack now a days im not really checking for anyone anymore eh

I knew that man had no intentions of retiring. It was all a gimmick to sell the black album. what a douche.

Oh man that's some crap. I think if you retire you just shouldn't be allowed to come back.
Hope it bombs. |

I'm pretty happy that Jay-Z's comin back. He never said that he was going to fully retire. Plus you know he couldn't stay outta the game for so long...I know i can't wait till his album drops....

He didn't need a gimmick to sell the Black Albu, he's Jay-Z. WTF? The Black Album was going to sell anyway, buuuut, he retires just to boost sales? That's a bitch move.
I will be downloading the comeback, though. I'M CHECKING FOR LUPE FIASCO. HIPHOP NEEDS A REVOLUTION. THE VETERANS ARE SUCKING THE LIFE OUT OF THE RAP GAME. I'M TYPING IN CAPS! 'Kick, push, kick, push... coast.' |

No one really means it when they say, "What more can I do/say"...Most people who retire come back. I like Jay Z though. Def, looking forward for his return.

hip hop is really wack right now
rappers are too lazy to make good music now and have to resort to gimmicks such as beef (the game, gunit, camron, etc) and now the new gimmick is retiring (jayz, dmx, jin, etc).. i mean im not even hype about anyone dropping a new albuim or nothign now.. im listening to less and less hip hop, and its not my fault.. joe budden said it best in his 2nd single Fire QUOTE Yes yes y'all who ain't believe me? Don't be fooled it ain't this easy All y'all so 'n so's shamed, that cheesy You wonder why people don't go and spend they change on a weekly Who's fly in rap? Im in fact By myself, no one behind the attack And f**k Sound Scan, I ain't BUYING that Cause y'all sell em to the stores then buy 'em back Now one hot song, yall fly and rap If the rest of you provide is wack I see creativity dying fast I'm glad producers charge so high for they tracks Now they do it all, you just applying the rap Honestly now, it's not the economy's down Now rap dudes suck they own pee hole The wacker the music the bigger the ego Fans left suffering, gasping! And it's embarassing! Jump Off I'm the aspirin I'm still hungry, I'm still fasting Y'all fade out, I'm just getting it cracking or maybe royce da 5'9 QUOTE Now I'm angry so f**k a metaphor f**k hip-hop, hip-hop sucks! You got, niggaz on top swingin from 2Pac's NUTS! It's like, I could go in the lab and try to write somethin that's nice or bright but I will be holdin back

Somehow I can't say I didn't see this coming, another marketing scheme, which gives Jay more net income. A true retired rapper is the rapper you never hear from again and you say "damn what happened to that cat, remember him". For instance, Kriss Kross, where they hell are they?
