I can’t even comment on half ya’ll IDIOTS. First learn to spell then learn to listen to the words in the songs to figure shit out. He is not talking about “The GAME” he is talking about the “RAP GAME” jack asses. I have inside tips about JAY, and some un-released shit from the 9th wonder or the Rulers back if he figures out what he will call the come-back CD. That cat will always be the hottest dude truly the MJ of the Rap Game.

Imma certified, westide, nigga n the A, I done survived, where the best died, nigga we dont play, signed silled and deliverd it’s a bet, might ketch me all alone wit 2 pistols and a tech, I shoot u now and spend a couple grand on the case, he didnt wanna die he should of kept his hands out ma face. Remeber that. TI said that shit.
Jay z simply talks about in “Dear Summer” how he is saying goodbye to the game and how it treated him and his success in his career. I mean jay is not a rapper, bussiness man, or whatever if yall listen to his songs yall would no that he is only a hustler that hustled his way up to the pinacle of the game….
jay-z for all yall slow pep was talking to summer because all his hit were hot in the summer
I load weed into my pencil so i can write these dope ryhmes
someone email with info on them jeans hes wearin. the ones with the M on the back. slim thug is wearin tha same ones in his like a boss video. thanx
dear summer is talkin about Dame Dash bcuz he says “…you should have given my publishin…. instead given me ass to kiss but you know me thugin till my casket dips…” jay-z left the Roc bcuz dame wasnt treating him like a biznes man but lookin at him as just a rapper. plus Dame wouldnt give jay-z his publishing (the rights)to REASONABLE DOUBT….jay-z owns everyone of his CD’s expect tyhat one …dame said no so jay-z left went to def jam (which def jam owns half the roc) now your lookin at more smart black boy, mama anit raise no fool put me anywhere on Gods green earth i triple my worht motha fucka….
You guys are all stupid…Jay-z was just paying respect to the rap game. Summer is the rap game,
“Dear Summer I know you gon? miss me ?Fore we been together like Nike Airs and Crisp Tees”
He is talking about leaving the rap game behind him and finally retiring,
“To my beloved/ Think he needs some time away/ They say if you love it, then you should let it out its cage/ And fuck it then comes back you know its there to stay”
In this line he is talking about letting go of his love(summer a.k.a. the rap game) and when he talks about having a new bitch named Corporate America, he is talking about his other endeavors like his clothing line, his club, and just other business opportunities that he has to focus on right now and therefore leave “Summer” behind,
“I?m done for now, so one for now
Possibly forever we had fun together
But like all good things, we must come to an end
Please show the same love to my friends
Dear Summer”
GET OFF JAY’S NUTS HE AINT THE BEST AND NEVER WILL BE
Yo yall don’t know man Dear Summer is a whole song of metaphoric and symbolic meaning if you don’t know anything about the man then u can’t know anything about the artist and if u don’t know anything about the artist then u sure as hell can’t know anyhthing about the music. Go back to high school and learn how to be able to analyze metaphors. He is literally and figuratively talking about the summer time being so good to him as far as his music career. He says in Hovi Baby off the Blueprint 2: The gift and the curse, “7 straight -summers- critics might not admit it but no one in rap did it quiet like I did it…” hence “Dear summer I know u gon miss -me- for -we- been together like nike airs and crisp t’s”. “-I- drop -heat- when u(summer) bring the -sun- up” da combo make niggas act up I pick a gun up. He is saying he drops hot verses when the summer brings the sun up get it? Heat=sun=summer. Get ya knowledge up people if this helped anyone out and yall need help on anything else wit dis song let me know I just wanted to drop some science as far as what the whole song is about and what summer actually means.
Are you serious “Interpreter”!? This line says it all man,
“But let’s not stray from what I came to say
To my beloved, think we need some time away”
He ain’t saying bye to the good summers that he had, he is saying bye to the rap game. To my beloved, means rap in general, he is leaving it all behind to make money in other business opportunities.
“It’s tugging, at my heart, but this time apart is needed/ From the public, who should’ve gave me the pulitz’”
He is just paying respect to rap for giving him a way out tha hood man, this right here will sum it up for you. Oh yeah, Get Your Game Up Homie!
“And I know you put me on my feet and all, but
I mean, it’s time for me to grow”
If he is talkin about the rap game “all together” then why is he still rappin and why is it speculation that he will be coming out with another album??? Commonsense! Note: I said he is “literally” and “figuratively” talking about the summer time being so good to him as far as his “music career” Literally meaning real life actually the summer, figuratively meaningthe rap game,music career ect.. Read what I wrote good, think outside the box “Get ya game up homie”.
“I’m so far ahead of my time I’m bout to start anotha life look behind you I’m bout to past you twice.”
Jay’s forethought is what he is about….. Every line was preplanned, attacks were pre-empted and counter moves were there before the attack happened.
A hustlers hustler…….. Hes playing everyone here……. Im promoting the guy am I not…….
The only thing the guy has never been able to do is freestyle…. Its pre-planned, make a mistake surely not.
his girl, yea that shit is hella phunny! naw it’s bout tha game, i mean he say he got a new bitch, corp. america, an even at tha end he ask summer ta show tha same love ta his friends, c’mon! now im NO j-h.o.v.a. xpert, but i can interpret a song pretty good, i’ll holla
..::. mia denise .::..
Summer: Yall remember that every summer Jay had the streets locked down. “Jigga been hot for 6 summers wheres the love” Remember that? He saying that hes left the game, He appreciates how it got him where he is, and maybe hell come back. He got a new bitch, a new hustle.That bitch is coorperate america. But he would like for the album sales of his friends to be as well as his was: Please show the same love to my friends.
Yo, my man is mos definitely the greatest and deepest rapper alive. I feel what you saying about how it took some time to figure what he’s talkin about. Can’t nobody fuck wit his punclines, “still in the game nigga, hooked like glue, pappi gave me 1 pie, but it cook like 2, i’m a crook like you, cats around the way was brand new whips and shits, what could i do? knowing i’m supposed to style, i’m the hustler’s posterchild. Live ironic or what not. Put all that ice on the face of a watch, just to make it hot” and “i want money like cosby. who wouldn’t? it’s this kinda talk that make me think you probally ain’t got no pudding” and “i saw his life slippin, this is a minor setback. yo, still in all we living, just dream about the getback. That made him smile ‘though his eyes said pray for me. I’ll do you one better and slay these niggas faithfully”. That’s for the kid who quoted TI’s lyrics which was nothing better than what i could have wrote. It took me some time to figure it out but jay is the realists nigga alive. next is 50. than kanye. than lloyd banks. and the lists goes on from there.
LOL gay-z he aint shit pussy ass nigga
i know jay z is gon come back cuz he has to finish what he started on “summer” and game is gon try and diss him some more and i hope game does diss him so jay z would come back and this faggot up above dont really know what he talkin bout!
if jay and game are beefin then why did just blaze produce tracks for game?aint just blaze one jay’s boys?
hov is that nigga…. shit, I listened to that song 30 times before noticed he said “young nigga’s that that will blast for me/ blaspheme no religon” like when you first hear the song you think he’s talking about just some people shooting for him, but if you listen a little deeper he’s saying nigga’s worship him like he is god or like he is a religon and are willing to damn god to follow him. The brother is deep……
Yo i just caught this thread so im late as fuck but it’s clear this song was about the rapper Game cuz Game wouldn’t shut his mouth about Bleek & Buddens. And somebody was asking who the “Lance” was he was referring to in Dear Summer. He was talking about Lance “Un” Rivera.Lance used 2 run a label back in the day called “untertainment” or something like that,he was the 1st cat 2 sign Charlie Baltimore and he put out that Horse & Carriage garbage cd by Cam’Ron. Anyway Lance is the dude Jay-Z caught a case behind because he sliced him up a few years back because he thought Lance had leaked one of his albums.
Linkin Park Rocks. Jay Z is a fag. He completely wrecked all da colab songs he did.
is the best at what he does …
listen to Blackout – Jadakiss ft jay-z and etc
Yeah, yeah
I’m a monster, I sleep whole winters; wake up and spit summers
Ghetto nigga, puttin up Will Smith numbers
nuff said go figure
dude is a lyrical and Rap genius
no 1 alive comes close to how dead Jay-Z
Jay Z is undoubtly deep all of his metaphors he uses are second to none. Just think “I’m so far ahead of my time I’m bout to start anotha life/ Look behind you I’m bout to past you twice/Back II the Future gotta slow up for the present/I’m fast niggas can’t get past my past” in ‘Hovi Baby’. Or what about this one “Youngins ice grillin me/oh you not feelin me/Fine it +cost+ you nothing +pay+ me no mind” from ‘Heart of the City’ the brotha is ill.
“They say the truth shall come to the light so everybody grab ya shades cuz ya boy dat bright.Goodnight.”
Dat guy is nasty.
HOVVVII BABYY, JAY IS DEFFENETLY UP THERE WITH PAC AND BIG, ” DEAR SUMMER” WAS A HOT TRACK. HE WAS TALKIN BOUT THAT HE IS GON MISS THE SUMMERS OF HIM MAKING NEW SHYT EVERY YEAR. OTHER THAN THAT NO1 IS UP TO JAY’S LEVEL RIGHT NOW AND I DNT THINK ANY1 WILL. OH YAH AND FUCK ALL YOU HATERRS, RESPECT THE MUSIC MAYN. NIGGAZ CRAZYY!
ITS YOO BOY
jay’z hot and i like em a lot but people talk about him being the most talented rapper and how his freestyle’s so good.. fact is that he doesnt come close in pure lyrical talent to people like nas, pac, havoc(from mobb deep), and game.. he came into the rap game with a completely different purpose then all these other niggaz his motivation was just the money their motivations are making hiphop thats true to the streets everytime so lyrically they are better for it.. that’s why you cant compare jay and nas or talk about who ‘won’ the beef cuz they are both successes in what they set out to do
K link fuck you, you wack pussy ass bitch. You don’t know nothing about ma nigga jigga punk mother fucker
yomotha. fuck you, you wack pussy ass bitch. You don’t know nothing about ma nigga jigga punk mother fucker
Jay-z has alwayz been a bussiness man,remember the track Diamonds r forever remix”I sold Kilos of coke i guess i can sell CD’s”that nigga was rich before he even made a first album,Jigga is retiring becuz he has to live his life layed back,he’s got Beyonce and he’s 35 he’s enjoyin life with no pressure when u it comes to the rap game there is alot of pressure!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fort Minor is hot. The 2 white MCs (1 from LinkinPark the other jus sum underground guy) actually have skills. Jay Z executive produced it after Collision Course by lp and jigga
Well alot of people have clashing opinions about what they think the song “Dear Summer” means. There is a interview(that has barely been shown to the public) in which he explains that the song is saying goodbye to the RAP GAME. To get the FULL meaning of the song, sit there and actually listen to it. First line:”Dear Summer, i know you gon’ miss me…” Reference: He’s leaving the RAP GAME and saying that we’re going to miss him, which you can tell by this post is absolutely true. The so-called disses in the song are directed towards The Game,and that’s all. In a previous interview he excuses Cassidy for using his soundbite. On the business side of things, Jay-Z is really focusing on that until he’s ready to focus completely on music. He’s a perfectionist. So if he’s going to do something, he’s definitely going to put 100% into it. But regardless, Jay-Z is THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE.(keyword:ALIVE) And I’m pretty sure he plans tokeep it that way.
Peace and Love,
A.B
K so u load weed into your pen. DAKAI MAN!!!
Sincerely,
Wayne Takai.
Yo, use ur brains people, when does JayZ ever make tracks like these and talks directly on the topic.. metaphoric subtleness is his style.. “Summer” like the above-stated dictates the game as all are used to seeing him in, also if anyone really understands certain things on the street.. the summer is the best time to pitch, notably for narcotics and whatnot.. get in touch with your hooDNAss
How Da Hell is hov gone get mad at people usin his lines to make they songs better. when he sample of big shit all da time. GEt da hell outa here Hov is not the best rapper. he talk about the same shit everbody else do. he just got hotter beats on his shit. dont get me wrong he hot but he aint the best n he sample tooo much of biggie stuff. Eminem is hotter then Hov. and he did not freesyle the black album anybody that believes that is a asshole!
can some1 plz explain the concept of “dead presidents” ?
iight listen u fukin idiots.. j is talkin bout sayin bye to the game. nigga is mad rich n shit. nigga gettin old n wanna chill. aint no one gon take his place any ways. for all yall hatin niggaz jay-z is the best nigga that did it iight.. dont bring up pac n biggy iight they r.i.p.. name one rapper doin it like jigga.. thats right u cant say nuttin .. and in case yall idiots aint noe j still be freestylin n shit but aint doin no cd’s . think bout it he dont gotta. he got 40-40 , rocawear, rocafella, armadell, and all that shit… STOP HATIN u fuckin faggits…
Bk TiLL i DiE
dead presidents 2 me is like a hustler song…damn u would have 2 listen 2 it 4 ya self or read da lyrics
US dollars have the faces of dead presidents on them, so Nas saying “I’m out for dead presidents ro represent me” is basically saying he’s out to make that paper!
But remember, Nas made it a hot line, Jay made it a hot song…
discuss
This song was f***in’ bad I heard the beat for it on The Game’s 300 BARS N’ RUNNIN’and then Iheard it the next day JAY-Z IS THESHIT
This song was fUCKin’ bad I heard the beat for it on The Game’s 300 BARS N’ RUNNIN’and then Iheard it the next day .JAY-Z IS THESHIT HE IS ONE OF THE CRAZIEST RAPPERS.
Does anyone know what song the beat is from that he freestyles over on the hot 97 rendition of dear summer?
Man, this has been a sad thread. My man, the answer to your question about where the sample for “Dear Summer” came from is a song called “Morning Sunrise” it was recorded by “Weldon Irvine” from an album called “The Sisters.” It was not recorded by “Lenny White” as mentioned earlier in this thread. http://soul-sides.com/2005/05/weldons-way.html
how could jay-z get mad at people using his lines to make themselves better (example cassidy, and TI) when he did it himself when he first came out by sampling nas voice on his song which is da same exact shit dey doin, jay-z is a contradiction, das wha really sparked da whole nas jay-z befo from jump street cuz nas felt jay was on his dick to much which he was so when cass and TI does it he gets mad, do i smell dick rider?
he is not talkin about the game or anyone
he is talking about the end of his carreer in the rap game showing that he is done with rap and on to life
a lot of people misunderstand jay-z’s whole “retirement” thing. If you read exactly what he said when he declared his retirement…he actually said he wasn’t coming out with anymore solo albums…i think thats why hes still making songs and featuring on other peoples tracks…
What is Game thinking going against Jay Z. He’s the greatest ever. I just heard a Game verse over Beyonces “Check on it with” with Bun and Slim thung. He obviously talks about banging Beyonce.
the 6 summers he is referring to in the song is the summer jam events when he came and shut the shit down….damn jay z is that much past yall you cant even get it
jay you hot but you not the best rapper alive.if it is its nasir jones aka nas.jay how you and your gurl beyonce doing i heard she pregnant.is that true holla back at me .but i got love for you because you came in the game with heart and left with heart.
this song has been out for a while but it can mean many thinks hell it can even refer to the dips and Camron u know who record could he put on hold juelz Santana I mean some of the lyric r to ppl he knows while some stuff doesn’t become apparent to later on to the public sees eyes listen to the song again hear if he imitates someone

You Dumb Niggas He Is Talkin Bout Damon Dash
I’m listening to it again now he should have put it on some of his albums he has done a lot of filler tracks lately I think.
