Jay-Z has gotten lame in his years. His hottest joints came from "Blue Print" the original, "Carter", and that track he did with Jermaine Dupre. But his lame lyrics suck now, and he look whack as hell with them reading glasses on. He look old with that puff daddy facial hair trim.

The fans have been so supported of Jay Z and Beyonce's career through the years, I think I would have at least released one wedding picture to my fans for the sake of allowing them to celebrate and be apart of such a special day, but I am happy for them.

Why is everybody a Jay-Z hater all of a sudden? Who ever "anonymous" is they can kiss a "pickle" and stop "jockin Jay-Z." Besides we need more love not hate so please don't be a "hater-raider."
