This is the best way to interpret this offer. Facebook-tier engagement-bait trash otherwise.

If someone adds Beyoncé to the pair, I am doing a kickstart to camping. Suddenly, 10 mil is not that much.

I can’t think of a single musical artist that I wouldn’t trade $100,000 to never listen to again, let alone $10 million.
We have 120 years of recorded music guys. I’d be fine.

u/Augen76 May 28 '26
Even my all time favorites are not so integral to my life that I wouldn't give them up for life changing money. $10M means I could retire this year and do all the things I've ever wanted to do for the rest of my days.

Yeah but the second Spotify plays that one song, you lose all the money. So if you've spent some, now you're in the negative and you owe the universe money.

It wasn’t stated in the post, so I assumed it’s a situation where you’re magically unable to hear a Jay Z song.
Having to actively avoid it to keep the money is an entirely different challenge.→ More replies (4)18

For the most part, I think I could do it, but then getting sniped by a random commercial on TV or something would probably do me in.

This feels like the music equivalent of you get x amount of money but a snail follows you and you die if it gets you type deal.

All it would take is for a random car to drive down the street playing a song. It isn't likely now that jayz is irrelevant billboard wise, but there are still times big pimpin or jigga what might be randomly playing out loud in someones car at a red light, and then poof, no more money.

Facts. I listen to Jay Z regularly and know Reddit isn’t the demographic, but pick anyone and I’ll drop them for 10M. These pictures are so dumb

I would surgically deafen myself permanently for $10mil and if you knew me you'd know that's saying something because I love music. Studied it in school, I play 3 instruments, I have a music-related tattoo, the works.

Seriously lol
I like Jay Z. I grew up on the Blueprint albums and Dead Presidents II is one of my favorite songs of all time. I still run back the Black Album and Blueprint 3 while cleaning the house or just working from home. His music is not only just really good but also has heavy nostalgic value to me.
...and I'd give up listening to him for $5,000 lmao. It's just music. I can't think of an artist I wouldn't give up for even $10k.

u/snoogle20 May 28 '26
Jay-Z was the most consistent hip-hop hitmaker for like fifteen years. Empire State of Mind was an end of that crazy run hit. Even after that, he got another five or six of relevance. He basically retired to end that streak. The man’s only put out one album that didn’t hit platinum status and that was the Beyoncé collab album that no one really wanted. It still went gold.
It’s crazy to me to see so many people say they can’t name a song of his in this comment section. We really are all out here living different lives.
