Jay-Z – “Money, Cash, Hoes” – Vol 2…Hard Knock Life

“Sh^t, I led a life you can write a book on/Sex, murder, mayhem, and romance for the streets/Man and I'll tell ya, it'll be a best seller.”

When he spit these lyrics in 1998, Hov may have had a better chance of getting booked than writing a book. But in November 2010, the rapper turned co-author's first hardcover, Decoded landed at the #3 spot on the New York Times best-sellers list. If anyone knows when, Kingdom Comes it might be Jay.

    Check Rakim's "Casualties of War" Dude envisioned a 911 style attack on NYC 9 years before it happened.

    "I look for shelter when a plane is over me/ Remember Pearl Harbor/ New York will be over G/Kamikaze strapped with bombs/No peace in the East/They want revenge for Saddam...."

    Profound.
