14. Jay-Z Feat. Sauce Money - Dead Or Alive Pt.2
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBVB74AWzLA Yup, there was actually a part two to the infamous Tupac diss. However, this time around it isn't clear if it's indeed a Pac diss record. Though, he does call out the rapper by name: "On the cellie bumping Makaveli I hold no grudge. You diss me I diss you. What? Love is love." Though, that line seems harmless enough, maybe Jay felt the need to diss Pac and then make a remix to that song to remedy the situation. However, those lyrics were immediately proceeded by the line: "Don't get it confused right cause we in the spotlight. Still I hold the Glock with the wrist twist like these." Side-note: Sauce Money is again on the song but it is only Jay who provides additional lyrics. 13. Da Ranjahz Feat. Jay-Z - Arms Up
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhodWd8odxk Another track by the Brooklyn group Da Ranjahz. This time Jay simply adds some lyrics for the track's chorus. The song is nothing special; a by the numbers song about guns and what they can do. "Our guns got mileage while your's is just camera. That means your s*** just flash. Them s**** don't last. Is you crazy? I send slugs though your Old Navy. It's all gravy, I'm only what the hood made me" Half and Wise are actually fairly talented lyricists. It's a shame that they didn't reach the same heights as some of their rap peers. We could have easily seen them holding their own with the likes of Brownville's M.O.P. Okay, that's pushing it, but they were still pretty talented.
