(22,689 posts)yes, I think he did.
It seemed a no brainer to me as I listened to the short bits of all of them, and knew well it was not a fair assessment on so little. Just seemed right to me, the novice.
Another fun bit of self disclosure:
My grandson sat me down a half a year ago and told me I needed to learn about JayZ and his history.
So I learned a bit, and also that Beonce who won tonight (sp ?) is his wife.
A while later I read the phenomenal book
The Unwinding: An Inner History of the New America by George Packer and JayZ was one of the people chronicled. I was really pleased to not be new to his name and history.
My brother (German) recommended the book to me in a phone call, and called the author George Pecker, and I kept laughing and made him spell it.
Oh well,
that is how we older people get dragged into the scene we live in.
