Description: “It’s almost like a loser’s mentality…everyone is so spoiled. ‘he won’t let me shine’!

Steel sharpens steel. You gotta get out there and earn your spot. It’s not given. It’s such a spoilt brat, loser’s mentality. It’s annoying.” Jay-Z on Music Motivation During Breakfast Club Interview Although this particular clip comes from 2013 and therefore doesn’t mention some of Kanye’s more recent antics… Jay-Z’s message n the unfortunate ‘loser mentality’ of many new rappers extends to this day, and gives us a window into the different between a millionaire and a billionaire music artist’s thought process.Jay-Z has been at the pinnacle of Hip-Hop royalty for decades now, and that kind of power and influence doesn’t come without a shift of mentality from being a “new rapper” to a living legend. For new creatives interested in that beginner to billionaire mental level-up, let’s hear Jay-Z describe step #1 to a winner’s mentality in music motivation… Take Responsibility For Your Development “The goal is not to be successful and famous. That’s not the goal. The goal is if you have a specific God-given ability it’s to live your life out through that want… And (secondly), we have a responsibility to push the conversation forward until we’re all equal” Jay-Z On Music Motivation During New York Times Interview Jigga here is giving us a different method of describing music motivation… Most new rappers fall for music marketing tricks where the belief is all you need to get on a Spotify playlist, get somebody to “let you shine” and Jay talked about in the first clip, etc. and supposedly you’ll be fine. Hov’s message in step #1 is something different… rather than chasing fame, clout, status, or any version of attention seeking… new rappers should focus on how genuinely their art is pushing the cultural conversation forward and honing their God-given ability. Jay-Z should know something about this himself as someone who both wrote raps every single day in his own words, but also had to dive deep in his personal music motivation in order to have the inspiration to keep going, even when he wanted to give up: “It was more of a hobby… and it was such a gift to me, like it was a gift… It wasn’t really hard for me to create raps. It was hard for me to write rhymes and things like that. I used to write every day. Every single day. In the kitchen, I was banging on the table every day… my Mom was like, “please give us a break back here”… I stopped writing but I kept getting ideas”. Jay-Z Music Motivation On Almost Giving Up Rap Therefore, new rappers must both take responsibility to turn writing into a habit like Jay says here, and use that daily writing practice to push the conversation forward in well-organized, memorable songs, not just random raps… FULL ARTICLE ON JAY-Z MUSIC MOTIVATION (CONTINUED): rapgamenow.com/jay-z-music-motivation
