April 06, 2022
Jay-Z fired back at Faizon Love during his verse on "Neck & Wrist."
Jay-Z shut down Faizon Love's accusation of lying about his past as a drug dealer during his verse on Pusha T's new track, "Neck & Wrist." Despite Love's comments being nearly two years old, this is the first time the legendary rapper has addressed them.
"The phase I’m on, love, I wouldn’t believe it either/I’d be like, ‘Jay-Z’s a cheater,’ I wouldn’t listen to reason either/All I know is he’s a felon, how is he selling," Jay raps on the new song.
“I like Jay-Z,” Love said at the time. “I like him as a guy and the whole thing he created about this fake dope dealing. That’s when I stopped liking him. This n***a ain’t sold no cocaine in his life—I don’t think he’s ever won a fight.”
“I criticize him for it because it’s kinda his fault,” Love continued in another interview with VladTV from the time. “Jay-Z creates this drug dealing drug lord, ‘I’ma drug dealer, I’ma drug lord.’ These kids are like, ‘We gotta do it, too.’ Not knowing that this is all made up shit.”
