FIRST TIME HEARING Jay Z - Streets is Watching REACTION | This might be my favorite! 🔥🔥

[@foranyandevery7656]

No one has spoke to the complexity of street etiquette as effectively as Jay. Stand up guy.

[@marcel4002]

I watched this video like 7 times... 1) because it's one of my fav songs on my fav Jay album. 2) Because your reactions are so genuine, I feel like I'm hearing it for the first time again... and thanks for always checking for the "OG Album version" of old songs. It makes a better first experience...

[@akeemMagic01]

Watch the entire movie it's called streets is watching

[@Mercury6_]

Jay-z gives that authentic hustler wisdom

[@pocketfullofghost2347]

Hov music is a hustlers hand book

[@m.schnapps6623]

Real talk, Jay is pretty much the one that put the hustler ish on the map & laid a blueprint (no pun intended) for others I.e. Jeezy, TIP, etc.. A few cats dabbled in the lane before him but he was the one that really set it off..

[@nujeruboss]

Now imagine being the same age in 97..living what he talking bout..but in NJ...whatvhe spit was us...1988er..NJ allday 💯..

[@mr.caldwell7065]

Facts..we were living this exactly...if you were in the game you know what Jay meant to us

[@erick.roberts9074]

Jay said not too long ago that this was the last song he played Biggie before he passed. Big said, Is the whole album gonna be like this?! RIP

[@MA-te5nw]

I think it was actually "Where I'm From"

That 3rd verse might be my fav Hov verse…and honestly I didn’t understand how crazy it was till after I jumped off the porch. Like u said “if u kno u kno”

[@DameWall]

His named isn’t mentioned with NY hustlers because he left NY and went to Jersey, Maryland, and VA!

[@BruceJohnson-om5kl]

Jay Z said in a interview he wrote this to share game Because he seen hustlers come up after him and making life changing mistakes and weren’t game ready. He said this was his million bars of game. This wasn’t focused at anybody but the young hustler, Know what to do and who to watch. React to the next one “FACE OFF” ft Sauce Money 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 video is crazy 🤪

[@Alkheezy]

Fallin - Jay-Z (American Gangster) speaks on the fall of the hustler.. Kind of the book end to the criminal career. It’s awesome seeing you enjoy what most of us grew up listening to. I remember bumping this in high school wondering how am I the only one hearing this?

[@eliporter3980]

Jay Z is an incredible emcee. Never understood why dudes are so reluctant to give him his flowers. He deserves all his accolades AND some. But dudes wanna hate because he’s not only super ill on the mic, but he can back up his words and he’s rich AF with the baddest chick in the game. That shit makes nukkas sick!😂

They hate cuz his songs also were popular commercially…and he married Beyoncé. They just looove to haaate 😅

[@TL-fc8zw]

Love your reactions man! You listen to music the way we do. We analyzed the bars and found jewels in them. You can learn something from listening to them. “This unstable way I’m living just has to stop” jewel from this is knowing that nothing lasts forever so spread your hustle to make sure you don’t get lost “one drought can wipe you out faster than ____ (whatever can hurt you)”. That’s there message we got out of it. Can have all your eggs in one basket.
