"Rehab" a Laughing Matter for Jay-Z

16. How difficult is it to sit around and re mix someone else's songs? Does this young man have a real job?

18. #12 .........If these supposed "strong" people are the ones that go to rehab, what the hell makes them so strong? Oh, i bet what makes them strong is not having ANY WILLPOWER to just say NO to drugs or alcohol. Only people with no selfesteem and no willpower become addicts. "Strong" people can walk away from those temptations and not fall victim to them. So i agree with everyone that says rehab is for losers, because if you let yourself become an addict, you truly are a LOSER!

19. I don't normally comment, but my goodness! This guy really thinks he's something else doesn't he? Thought he retired like twice already. This dude thinks he's like god's gift to rap and sorry to break the news buddy but Tu Pac has already died. Dating Beyonce doesn't make you the shiznit either.

There's a crap load of problems in the world and this guy needs to sing about and pick on people that made mistakes and sought HELP for them? I give Britney and all others in Rehab props for at least knowing they have an issue and are trying to better themselves. Unlike Jay-Z or whatever his name is this week.....

Dude get OVER yourself! Retire for good already! Quit riding off Beyonce fame!

21. For those that say Rehab is for weak people. You are stupid! Simple as that! People go the wrong path for many differenet reasons, unless you've had a troubled life, don't talk about stuff you have no idea about. I'm amazed at how everyone thinks that they know everything that goes on in celebrities lives and that they have the right to comment and pass judgement. Well passing judgement when you don't even know the person personallly is nothing but ignorance. Period!

22. HE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING BAD AT ALL, HE WAS TALKING ABOUT HOW HE CAN'T STAY AWAY FROM RAPPING WHICH MEANS HE'S ADDICTED 2 IT, IT'S LIKE A DRUG 2 HIM, & THAT HE WILL DO IT UNTIL IT HIS VERY LAST BREATH; HE WASN'T TRYING DISRESPECT ANYONE AT ALL HE WAS JUST USING IT AS A METHAPHORE & U GUYES ARE JUST 2 SENSITIVE PERIOD?????? IF U CAN'T HANDLE THE REALNESS OF HIP-HOP OR RAP MUSIC U GUYES SHOULD NOT LISTEN 2 IT AT ALL.......
THIS REMINDS ME HOW BACK IN THE DAY WHEN THEY TOOK WHAT JESUS WAS TRYING 2 TEACH THEM OUT OF CONTEXT & KILLED HIM 4 IT, WHICH WAS WORDS FROM HIS & OUR ALMIGHTY FATHER FROM UP ABOVE (it shows that things haven't change one bit)???????

25. I used to drink at least a fifth of vodka, alone, every day for about three years and took pills for about ten years. I'm still in my twenties. I quit both on my own.

Going to rehab doesn't mean a person is weak, but it doesn't mean a person is strong either. A person can stop on their own if they truly want to. The people I have seen go to rehab have this attitude like they are handing over their problem to someone else and they hope someone else can fix it for them. It's no suprise the relapse rate is very high.

Rehab is a business, people. A business. They are to make money. And they are laughing all the way to the bank. What other business can have such a staggering failure rate, and yet you never get your money back if the rehab doesn't work (relapse). And guess what? When it doesn't work, the addict finds another rehab! Nice work if you can get it.

Rap is for people who cannot sing. Rap fans are tone deaf (not def).

28. I can't believe some of you people are so invested in strangers lives that you can't relax enough to listen to a very funny take on these so called "roll models" . Get a grip . This song wouldn't have been written if it wasn't at least partly true and all those losers weren't such junkies to start with

29. You guys need to get a life we have other important issue that can be discuss besides this.
Of all the other bad things that has been said about Anna dead or alive and you guys choose this.Is it because Jay Z is a rapper and are you guys trying to justified Don Imus comments.

30. Jay Z did not go too far, he is just stating the OBVIOUS! But there is one correction to be made, he shoulda researched a little more because Marilyn Monroe did not die of narcotic drug use ("lethal like Marilyn's nose") she did however use prescription painkillers and barbiturates!
