I always wondered if there were subliminals aimed at each other on records between these two! I am convinced LL made a subliminal diss to Jay Z in response to Jay's line on Encore:
Jay-Z - "Who you gone find doper than him/with no pen just draw off inspiration"
It's on his track with Freeway called 'What You Want'
LL - "I use a pen but there's still never been better."
What do you think? Its common knowledge that Jay doesn't write any of his lyrics down. I dunno it made me think..maybe I'm reaching!
