Jay's Other Stuff

I feel like noZ has a lot of people shook in the industry. Cause he got such an encyclopedic brain on the hip hop thing he can intimidate certain mainstream writers. Some people who I believe are shook are sasha frere jones and nitsuh abebe. I was shocked to see nitsuh bow at noZ feet in his Tyler album review. As soon as noZ turn on yellow ninja it’s over for rap radar. Just being honest. It’s a miracle Jon carma stll feels safe championing drake with the heat noz put on him. No shots though we need noZ the same way we need armond White who I respect a lot for at least not being a bland consensus dude. —

1. Much as I love Armond White in his own way, and much as I was inspired by his hip-hop writing in the 80s, comparing White’s current schticky contrarian persona to Noz is a disservice to Noz.

2. Was this just some trollololing or do people seriously think SFJ/Abebe/Caramanica would relate to their writing or their music or their thoughts that way? I’m sure they respect Mr. Nosnitsky just as much as I do but c’mon son.
