I see your reasoning but I don't agree with it lengthening Jay's career if anything more of his stans deluding themselves to give another reason why he's the GOAT. "Pusha couldn't do it. Luda couldn't. Curtis couldn't but Jay finished Wayne's career!! blah blah"Originally Posted by ILL LEGAL OPERATION

True but who would do it though?
You can't be seriously suggesting Ol Man Jigga.
...lemme clarify a couple things at the outset though:
- this would be a good ol' fashioned battle on wax. WWE publicity stunt? Of course, but we'd all listen and watch
- I said a "Takeover" for a reason - there was nothing subliminal about those disses in that song - he said names, repeatedly.
- I think it would lengthen Jay's career because if he attacked Wayne, Baby, and Drake it would be the biggest battle since him and Nas; more music to make, more %$* to be argued about in the barbershop/blogs/forums/magazines, more songs to perform live, more food for his stans to eat and more ammo for his haters, etc.
As far as me picking Jay as the one to do it - who else could it be?
Pusha? Didn't work
Luda? If a tree falls in the forest, and there's no one there to hear it...
In my opinion he's the only artist that could do it and demand a response - well maybe Em too, but YMCMB hasn't been throwing shots at him the way they've been throwing them to Jay - so if Jay blazed a snappy retort, no one could say that it isn't justified...
...as far as the whole "does he still have the skill to do it" issue, that's where it'd get fun IMO - like, is this Jordan on the Bulls or Jordan on the Wizards?
As amazing of a talent as Drake is, pound for pound, bar for bar, and line for line - I still think a "Shiny Suit Theory" Shawn Corey would body him...
...and isn't Jay working on another album? Man that %*$% would sell itself.
Honestly, I don't see this scenario as the biggest thing since Jay and Nas. The reasonable Wayne fans already know he's not untouchable. Plenty of rappers have dissed, exposed, made fun of him and as already mentioned Wayne stans will ignore or just say Wayne won anyway. Nas and Jay was special cuz in a way it was Nas against the whole Roc. Not to say Jay needs anybody on Rocnation but more than anything I could see him trying to flip the situation to benefit Cole or whoever else is signed on his label.
Also, it's not even a guarantee specifically Wayne and Drake respond. Nobody wants to hear Baby respond or those other bums on the label. In an ironic twist they could pull the same shh Jay has been pulling on other rappers who've went at him for years now. Just drop subliminals in their songs for the next few years, tell him to worry about his child, call him a senile old man and claim they don't fight senior citizens.
The diss itself might be extremely dope but I'd find Jay pretty lame to attack a few popular whack rappers unprovoked (and when I say unprovoked I'm not talking about these is he or isn't he rhymes these dudes have spitting for a while now where the fans speculate whose being talked about).
You right about that situation helping Jay though as (more) album sales and what not since I don't really think all this experimentation he's been doing has improved his catalog.
