: MediaTakeOut.com told you last week that Def Jam rejected Jay Z's final offer to extend his contract. We also reported that the move by Def Jam made it very likely that Jay Z would find himself over at Sony BMG/Columbia. But we may have spoken to soon.
That's because, now we're hearing that Jay Z's negotiations with Columbia have hit a rough patch. An insider at the label told MediaTakeOut.com, "A week ago, I would have told you that this was a done deal. But the numbers that they're asking for just don't make sense in this market" The insider continued, "Unless [Jay Z's team] comes down significantly, there will be no deal."
Developing...
MTO where do ya'll be hearing these sh!tty rumours, that no other blogspot mentions.
I doubt this is true, and if it is, we will be hearin about it soon.
Besides why does he wanna be an employee again? Doesn't he have a label, and loads of money? Can't he invest in his own artists' and prove his business/executive skills (that he claims to have)?
Hmmm. Whatever.
I think he needs to take a few management courses, cause his artist aren't happy with his lackluster performance! He definitely needs something to preoccupy his time, cause don't nobody wanna hear old dude put out another wack Jay Z album! Talkn' bout "I'ma an 80's baby" (gimme a break!)......what does that mean anyway? RETIRE guy.......you past your prime!
NOT TRUE MTO......OTHER SITES SAY THAT JAY JUST INVESTED 66 MILLION DOLLARS INTO OWNING HIS OWN HOTEL.THE "J" HOTEL IN MANHATTAN. SO IF HE DOES PART WAYS WITH DEF JAM....I DOUBT IF HE IS TRIPPIN. ALSO HE HAS ROCAFELLA.....KANYE IS A HOT ITEM WITH THE 8 GRAMMY NODS SO I DOUBT VERY SERIOUSLY IF ANY RECORD COMPANY IS TURNING DOWN RHIANNA, NEYO AND JAY AND KANYE....JADA-KISS AND NAS. HE SAID BACK WHEN HE FIRST SIGNED WITH DEF JAM THAT HIS CONTRACT SAYS...WHO HE SIGNS TO DEF JAM OR ROC-A-FELLA ROLLS WHEN HE ROLLS...SO AGAIN, I NEED MORE PEOPLE ON THIS. HE IS PROBABLY ASKING FOR A *** LOAD OF MONEY BUT THEN AGAIN....ITS HOVIE BABY...HE SHOULD GET IT. THEY GIVE IT TO THE WHITE MAN EVERYDAY!
Why are people so cruel when it comes to talking about Jays looks that is just plain ignorant. Your beef *** be with him it should be with GOD since he's the one that created him. So for now on the comments you type in should be directed to GOD telling him how ugly one of his creations is to you and how much you disapprove! I missed the part where any of us can determine the way we want to look before we are born. What do you want the man to do get his face fixed the way the Jacksons did or lil Kim, so then you can sit here and talk about how much he needs to sue his plastic surgeon. Jay looks the way he looks he cant help that the same way you cant help the way you look!
TO THE 12 YEAR OLD WHO ASKED (WHAT IS AN 80'S BABY).....lmao!!!! R U SERIOUS! NO WONDER U HATE JAY...U ARE CLUELESS TO WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT. THE 1980'S IS WHEN HE GREW UP (TEEN YEARS) WHERE HE LAID HIS BLUE PRINT FOR ALL THAT PAPER HE HAS...OH AND ITS ALOT MAMA. DONT GET IT TWISTED. ON ANOTHER NOTE, IF EVERYONE IN RAP RETIRED IN THEIR 30'S WE WOULD HAVE NO LEGENDS. IN OTHER MUSIC GENRES ARTIST PERFORM FOREVER, SO WHY SHOULD IT DIFFER IN HIP HOP? AMERICAN GANGSTER ALBUM IS FIRE BABY.THE LYRICAL CONTENT, THE METAPHORES, THE PRODUCTION... HE HAS IT BOO AND NEVER LOST IT! COP THAT CD, LISTEN CLOSELY TO THE LYRICS.....THIS MAN DOES THE DAM* THING. LOOK AT WHAT HE HAS ACCOMPLISHED 10 NUMBER 1 CD'S....IN A ROW. TIED WITH ELVIS PRESLEY. SO AGAIN DO YOUR HOMEWORK ON THIS MAN. IT IS OK NOT TO FEEL SOMEONE OLDER THATN U..U PROBABLY THINK SOLDIER BOY'S CD IS A CLASSIC....AND THATS OK ITS YOUR OPINION, BUT YOU HAVE TO PAY HOMAGE TO THE TRUTH AND THE NUMBERS AND THE PAPERGAME....JAY-HOVA IS THAT NIG*A'! DO U MA! DID I MENTION HE IS ART OWNER OF THE NEW JERSEY NETS, BUSINESS MAN....WEALTHIES MAN IN HIP HOP?

NOT TO MENTION ALL THE AWARDS AND MOVES HE'S MADE, ONLY RAPPER WITH A *** SPECIAL, JUST INVESTED IN A HOTEL, ALL THE 40/40's, THE SPOTTED PIG AND 2 OTHER JOINTS DOWNTOWN NYC. HE PUTS KIDS THROUGH COLLEGE AND SAVED MILLIONS BY INSTALLING WATER PUMPS.... AND THAT'S JUST SOME OF WHAT THE GREAT GOD M.C. HAS DONE.
THESE HATERS SCREAMIN' FOR THE NEXT RAPPER AND THE NEXT RAPPER' IS TELLING YOU IN THEIR INTERVIEWS THAT JAY IS THE BEST HAS ALWAYS BEEN AND WILL ALWAYS BE - ROTFLMBAO!!!
THE OWNER OF THIS SITE IS EVEN A JAY D*CK RIDER BECAUSE HE'S A BROKE JOKE - LMAO!
To be honest Jay Z needs to open up his own label. He has nothing to lose. All he really needs is Beyonce, Neyo and Rihanna to start off and he will be good. Neyo is madd creative and keeps producing banger after banger on the radio, and Rihanna is good also she has a terrific caribbean flavor. Beyonce is Beyonce beyond words so that's enough about her. Jay Z is the *** we all know it!
OMAR....OMAR...OMAR G.:AGAIN, THE ONLY ARTIST THAAT IS MAD IS "LL", NOW DON'T GET ME WRONG, HE IS A LEGEND....A GREAT RAPPER, WHO IS 3 YEARS OLDER THAN JAY-Z FOR ALL THE IDIOTS ON AGE. AT HIS LEVEL A LABLE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SPEND MILLIONS. "LL" CAME OUT IN 1985, HE SHOULD BE CONSISTANT IN MAKING PAPER AT THIS POINT WITH OUT A LABLE SPENDING MILLIONS. YOU DO THAT FOR THE NEW GUY ON THE BLOCK AND THE SOPHMORE CD ARTIST. LETS JUST AIR OUT SOMETHING FOR A SECOND. JAY HAS A HELL OF A FOLLOWING....THE NUMBERS DONT LIE, HE SELLS OUT CONCERTS IN 6 MINUTES.....OK, KINGDOME COME, THE ONLY FIRST CD OUT AFTER RETIREMENT WAS NOT PROMOTED BY DEF JAM AT ALL, THE PROMOTION WAS ALL CORPORATE, DO YOUR RESEARCH, HP, HEINIKEN, BUDWEISER, NBA, ROC-A-FELLA (HIS LABLE). OK, IT WAS NOT A STREET SUCCESS, BUT IT STILL WENT PLATNUM AND OPENED AT NUMBER ONE. HIS SECOND CD AFTER RETIREMENT (AMERICAN GANGSTER) WAS PROMOTED BY HIS SELF, HIS MONEY DOING SMALL CONCERTS IN 6 CITIES (SOLD OUT) HE DROPPED TWO VIDEOS...OPENED AT NUMBER ONE, WENT PLATNUM, LEFT THE HATERS STUCK ON STUPID CAUSE THEY THOUGHT HE FELL OFF...THAT CD IS FIRE!HE IS LAYING THE BLUEPRINT FOR THE WHINNING AS* ARTIST WHO WANT THE LABLE TO DO ALL THE WORK. SO TO THE FOLKS COMPLAINING GET THE FANS TO SUPPORT YOU, DO SMALL VENUES LIKE JAY AND KEEP IT CONSISTANT. WHEN U RISE TO THE TOP THEY ALL HATE. SO FAR ALL THE FOLKS ON THE SITE DO NOT QUESTION HIM AS AN ARTIST, A HALF A BILLIONAIRE, A SMART BUSINESS MAN OR GREAT MC...THEY COMMENT ON THIS FACIAL FEATURES...WTF? COME ON MAN IF THAT IS HIS ONLY PROBLEM, I WOULDN'T MIND LOOKING THE THE GIRL VERSION OF HOV! GROW UP FOLKS! AGAIN....DO THE RESEARCH....IT AINT HARD BOO! OH...BRUKLYN: LUV U 2!
@stophate
lol first of all I'm not 12! I just didn't know what he was talkn' bout "I'm an eighties baby!" it didn't make sense......heck I'm an eighties baby 1989 to be exact.......! And yes I was serious that's why I asked! And I've said it a million times before, he should retire he's wack and his song are so redundant it's ridiculous! his time has past!
ILUVYELLABOYS: NOTHINNG PERSONAL....BUT AGAIN.....THE WAY U WROTE THAT IT LOOKS LIKE U SAID U WERE BORN IN 1989? IF SO...BY THEN JAY WAS COUNTING HIS FIRST COUPLE HUNDRED THOUSAND, LISTENING TO RAKIM, AND SELLING DRUGS. ITS YOUR OPINION, BUT NUMBERS/ AND FAN BASE DONT LIE....WASHED UP....? ASK THE MILLIONS OF FOLKS WHO PURCHASED THAT PLATNUM CD, THE, FOLKS WHO BROKE RECORDS SELLING OUT SHOWS IN 6 MIN....HE IS OK WITHOUT U AS A FAN, I AM SURE AFTER HE OPENS HIS HOTEL IN MANHATTEN HE WILL MAKE U FIRST PRIORITY AND DO A CO-LAB WITH PLIES, OR SOLDIER BOY. I RESPECT ANYONE THAT IS CONSISTANT IN MAKING MILLIONS LEGALLY!I AM WAISTING MY TIME WITH U... U ARE A JOKE! LMAO!
@stophate
The joke is you, acting like you know Jay personally! He can get money and I applaud him for that, but he raps like he a 20 y/o that wack....my dad is 32 and acts his age, Jay should do the same, and you should stop actn' like one of his employees (cause he ain't paying you for your public service announcement!)....now I'm done with you!
MTO is such a hater....ya'll did not have to blow his face up like that....But just as big as his face is...is just as big as his pockets on a daily basis....Jigga not going to hurtin financially one way or the other cuz he was smart investing....they just said he has a HOTEL being built...so MTO all that gossip you be doing ain't going to make him or break him..
THAT SHOULD BE THE LAST TIME JAY-Z EVER DOES A CLOSE-UP PICTURE LIKE THAT AGAIN. AND JUST TO THINK, THAT'S WHAT BEYONCE ENJOY LOOKING AT EVERYDAY.
I DON'T KNOW WHO'S FACE I WOULD GET MORE TIRED OF SEEING WHEN IT COMES TO JAY-Z AND DIDDY. ***!!! THOSE TWO SHOULD OWN MADE STOCKS IN THIS WEBSITE SINCE THEY ARE CONSTANTLY ON IT.
TO THE PEOPLE WHO READ MTO LIKE IT'S THE BIBLE, STOP BELIEVING EVERYTHING THAT THIS SITE POSTS. HALF OF THE TIME, THEY DONT EVEN DOUBLE CHECK FOR ACCURACY. IT'S ALWAYS AN "INSIDE SOURCE" WHO TELLS MTO SOMETHING AND HALF THE TIME IT'S WRONG!! THEN MTO HAVE THE NERVES TO POST THAT THEY ARE THE FIRST NEW SOURCE TO REPORT SOMETHING... BLAH BLAH, GIVE THEM CREDIT FROM WHERE YOU GET THE STORIES FROM (REFERRING TO OTHER NEW SPOTS). BUT DOES MTO GIVE CREDIT TO THE PEOPLE THEY STEAL MOST OF THEIR PICS FROM?? NOPE... AGAIN PEOPLE, TAKE THINGS LIGHTLY AND DONT FEED INTO THIS GARBAGE. JAY WILL MAKE HIS MONEY WITH OR WITHOUT A LABEL. IT DOESN MATTER AND IT'S NOT CONFIRMED
LOL
BTO - anything related to OR in connection with.. well... you already know :-)
You have a crush on (let's just say a certain Black singer) and constantly pulls her hair to get her attention. My question is... has it worked yet? Why don't you just pass her the note asking... do you like me... yes or no... please check the box :-) lol
