To Be Truthful, Jay-z Wouldn't Have A

I Have Been Known To Hang Out And Party Back In The Day. I Had A Weekend That Lasted A Few Years.

When 'ice Ice Baby' Was Selling A Million Records A Day, I Bought Several Properties: A Home Next To Michael J. Fox In L.a., A Palace In Miami And A Mountain Cabin In Utah. Then, A Few Years Later, I Took A Break From Touring, Saw That My Properties Had Cobwebs, So I Sold Them, And - To My Surprise - I Made A Huge Profit!

One Thing I Didn't Understand In Life Was That I Had $100,000,000 In The Bank And I Couldn't Buy Happiness. I Had Everything: Mansions, Yachts, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, But I Was Depressed. I Didn't Know Where I Fitted In. But Then I Found Family And Friends And I Learned The Value Of Life.

With The Mega-fame Came The Mega-downfall - You Know, With The Press And Everything - And At A Young Age, It Was Very Stressful To Me.

"ice" Came In When My Friends Would Say "cold As Ice" -- If You Could Rap And Battle People You'd Say "dude, That Was Ice Cold." It Had Nothing To Do With Jewelry. Back Then, It Was Like "your Cold, Dawg." "vanilla Ice -- That's Cold."
