Memphis Bleek was “happy” to see his mentor Jay-Z address his haters during his Roots Picnic freestyle.

The Brooklyn rapper turned podcaster recently sat down with Boardroom and gave some insight on how Jay operates

“Jay just be having verses. I know,” he said after admitting that he didn’t really get to hear the freestyle until it hit social media due to how chaotic it was backstage. “I be trying to get him to spit, but he got too many verses that he just tucks. When you’re a writer, you’re a rapper, you’re an artist, you’re gonna continue to write. Whether you release it or not.”

Bleek then explained why the people Jigga dissed had it coming because it’s easy to lie in today’s digital climate. “Everybody get hit. He put the fully on,” he began. “These kids got the switch, they don’t know about the fully. They know Shawn Carter, they know Jay-Z, they don’t know Jigga. That’s Jigga. Welcome, man.”

He added: “I’m happy he did ’cause a lot of people they just talk and talk and talk and its no one to rebuke it, to go against it, speak the truth, so lies get spewed all over the Internet and turned into truth. Because, you know, these guys are gonna believe what they want, but it’s not the other side fighting against it, only the lie seems like the truth. So, I’m glad he put belt to ass on certain people. They deserved that spanking.”

He then continued by saying that if you’ve paid attention, Jay-Z almost always talks about what he’s going through in his music. “Jay always responds through music,” the Memph Man explained. “Anything he’s feeling or going through, it’s always been in the music. That’s how we’ve always been. All of us. We really don’t get on here like, ‘Yo, I hate this rapper. When I see you, I’ma catch you.’ It’s on the record. If we’re going to entertain, I’ma make money off it. I’m not gonna just go on here and just be on everybody platform. Your algorithms go up and I’m just angry.”
