He doesn't compare his work or virtues to those of MLK, just saying he's a high profile figure/role model in a similar sense.

He already said this anyway on his "Best Of Both Worlds" with R. Kelly, something like: "Nothing could be clearer, we're the Martin and Malcolm of a brand new era".



and you get incensed by people who defend the things MJ says/does evillol


Nope, doesn't incense me at all when people defend things MJ says or does, I may disagree at times though.

MLK would never have been as disrespectful towards women as Jay-Z has been...look no further than "Big Pimpin'" for that.

Jay-Z is about making money first and foremost. That makes him a business man, not a cultural leader.

I lost anything I felt for Jay-Z the moment he started referring to himself as Hova.


I still don't get that...what is Hova and why did he start referring to himself as it? I know the song but just don't get it...

Jay-Hova, a play on the name of the main man of Prince's religious choice. smile
