From rags to riches. Something I mentioned two years ago when i wished Mr Carter well. Since then he has released two more albums and had large success in the business arena and back in '08 he married Beyonce Knowles.
The reason i take the time to mention this person whom i have never actually met, is that his success in inspirational. From a bad situation with limited choices, he created a man and legend who now stands atop music history as king. When i have trouble in my own rather small life or when i doubt my capability to succeed, i think of Jay-Z and i play some of his better songs, most of which are about beating the odds and believing in himself.
"I don't run rap no more, I run the map." - Jay-Z (Blueprint III)
Symian is: kind of wishing he was in New York. Kind of.
