"300 mil a weak day?"
@FilmMusicSportz commented:
"Jay-Z remains one of my biggest inspirations. Born in the projects, built his own dynasty, self made billionaire, & did it all the right way. When I was down, broken, & alone his music was the only thing that kept me together. Every artist today owes Hov their LIVES."

"Thank You J for this platform. I truly hope it will showcase and eventually incorporate a place for us aspiring artists to post covers :) I can’t wait one day to be signed in your label, and be the 2nd Cameroonian to get a Grammy for our country."
@kimisanauthor37 added:
"Congratulations! Thanks for everything you do! We appreciate it! A legend in the game of hip hop and you don't stop. You want to see artists reach the top and help them get the album to drop!"
