No what he described is the difference between being an employee and an entrepreneur.

This is about wealth buying you the time needed to STUDY THE BUSINESS. There is NOTHING inherently wrong with our people. Our circumstances have us in the same choke hold it would have any group subjected to it.

@@PardonMyPresence He wasn't necessarily talking about employee and entrepreneur. Both are valuable in their own way. But he was talking about ppl LEARNING...Learning the business. Plenty of so called entrepreneurs that don't wanna learn shit...they just wanna Get Money. And there's employees in this same entertainment business...that studies and learns about shit...that knows more than that so called entrepreneur. So nice try trying to make it something its not...and look like you're trying to employee shame. SMH! Both are valuable.

Its not the first time Serch has said it either. Don't be butt hurt cos you favor Jay z. Jay lied. Simple. Get over it. Its not the first time a rapper lied.

[@MrSleeplessnights]

@@brianjackson3031 you're confused. The lie is countering "I count dough when you sample my voice" with "I know who I paid, serchlight publishing". There was nothing call serchlight. Serch says it himself. No company with that name. And the counter is to try to make people believe that nas didn't count dough when Jay sampled his voice, like nas didn't get paid and like nas was lying. The people on the pocast are shocked that nas owns publishing on that song because Jay's lie worked. He paid the company that paid Nas so Nas got paid. So why did Jay bring it up as a Diss? Because he wanted to mislead the people to score a counter. Class is now over for the day. I will not be replying

[@meeraftaddesse8956]

I am so ready. Thank you, Math! Thank you, Serch!

[@keithburwell9408]

Great interview..clarity is everything. 🤔🔥

[@thamsanqakhoza7032]

This is Gold. Thank you to Math and the whole team. Salute to MC Search for coming through and clearing his name.

[@Yewie_Hitter]

His first interview was dope. Let's goooo 💨💨💨

[@TCOHHL]

This is going to be a great interview! Thanks, Math.

[@immafoodlover6412]

Thank you Search for introducing Nas to the game. For all who don't know check out Live at the Barbeque. It's when Nas made his rap debut on a Search track. The rest is history. Much Respect to the Godson. Top 5 dead or alive.

[@Ace_Sosa]

Real Nas fans already knew that. He said it in stillmatic freestyle. “you show off, I count dough off when you sample my voice I rule you before, you used to rap like the Fu-Schnickens Nas designed your blueprint, who you kidding”

[@mecca6264]

Much respect to Faith Newman, Large Pro and Search for Nas success!!!!

[@daniellejones8460]

Oooo this is going to be a good interview. Can't wait for the rest.

[@xrt89fly]

This is a very timely interview. 👍

[@obsidyan2000]

Serch has always been a real one. He had numerous opportunities to snake a young Nas, but his morality, honesty and love of the culture of hip hop kept him pure. Now he's laughing all the way to the bank and has Nas on speed dial.

[@ChiChi-jg1ch]

He's never been a real one, stop it.

[@Chtigga]

@@ChiChi-jg1ch Why?

[@obsidyan2000]

@@ChiChi-jg1ch Nas would beg to differ. Not to here to argue. Just my opinion.

[@ChiChi-jg1ch]

@@Chtigga He's taken the majority of Nas's publishing for his first two albums for almost 30 years. He's now back outside trying to do damage limitation because he knows that in a couple of years Nas is going to get the rights to his music and will likely do a documentary about what the culture vulture did to him as a teenager.

[@ChiChi-jg1ch]

@@obsidyan2000 Nas keeps this clown far away and never mentions his early music because it feeds this untouchable. Go listen to KD3, it's a great album.

[@skymarriot]

Another "Classic" on deck. Serch and Pete Nice were top tier. "Wordz to Wisdom" was the beat! "Pop Gothe Weasel" was another banger for our time.The West had love for 3rd Bass. He giving game on how "real"moves are made. Keep Pushin Math & Crew (Mr.Bigga). Stick & Move✌

[@stonedog23]

I loved a solo song he made called Daze of the Weak.

[@santoniobrown8562]

Big facts 💯

[@Kwekwe]

Yeah sad that Serch and Pete don't getalong anymore they were so great together.

[@ChrisUnbias1of1]

This is dope....Congrats Math on the success. The Numbers are thru the roof.

[@urbannuance5151]

Oh shit.. Math just went down in HIP HOP PODCAST HISTORY!!! PERFECT TIMING, right after KD3 DROPPED!

[@massdagod]

“you show off? I count dough off while you sample my voice. I rule you” - Nas (Stillmatic freestyle 2001) This line is single handedly the greatest diss in hip hop history 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Queens get the money! Most people would have been bragging at any given opportunity about owning half of Jay Z biggest song, but Esco is too real, humble. So it's not only Ether that makes Jay low keep still hate Escobar. 🤣

[@humblebragger500]

And the world is yours is the better record. Jay talking about u made it a hot line i made it a hot song. My fucking dick. Dead presidents is not even on the same level as the world is yours

[@bmewsed288]

I still listen to his work to this day. I introduced my children to 3rd Bass. Their story should be a movie!

[@superdopehiphop]

Serch such a legend and been there for basically all of HipHop from 1980-1999 and beyond! So dope! Truly the Forrest Gump of Hip Hop in that scene where he’s there for so many big events in Hip Hop history.

[@ramainewimbush6386]

Now this sounds like it’s about to be a conversation of intelligence and game only…. Salute Math

[@pbodyblaque2532]

Big up to Search for being real by speaking on how it was & how it is. 👍🏾
