The Reigning King of Hip Hop!

Shawn Corey Carter (born December 4, 1969), popularly known as Jay-Z, (or by a variety of stage names including S. Carter, Jigga, Jay-Hova, Hova, Hov, and Young Hov) is an american hip-hop artist and current president and CEO of Def Jam and Roc-A-Fella Records. He has been one of the most prolific and successful American rappers of the mid-90s and early 2000s.

Known for his use of metaphors, freestyling abilities, word play, flow, and blending of street and popular hip hop, Jay-Z became one of the most respected rappers in the music industry before his alleged retirement in 2004. He is admired for his ability to craft songs from memory, without the use of pen and paper; he claims his critically acclaimed album The Blueprint was written in only three days. Some people dispute this claim, but it is accepted by the majority of the hip-hop community. (read more)

Jay-Z - 99 Problems 

If your having girl problems I feel bad for you son
I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one

[Verse One]
I got the rap patrol on the gat patrol
Foes that wanna make sure my casket's closed
Rap critics that say he's "Money Cash Hoes"
I'm from the hood stupid what type of facts are those
If you grew up with holes in your zapitos
You'd celebrate the minute you was having doe


99 Problems Lyrics
