I would consider him my O-G in hip hop. Just to watch him do something so significant like that. To not even only invest money in a team but to actually take it from another state and put in New York, but not only in New York but in his hood, I don't know what more inspiration you need. I think that's the biggest inspirational thing for any kid growing up in any ghetto and any suburb and you can do whatever you want to do as long as you put your mind to it, that's a great man to follow, right there.\"\u003cbr/\u003e11.

(laughs) forget the reference. The whole thing, land of the free, home of the brave. That whole thing that you could come here and pull yourself up by the bootstraps, like that whole thing what America has always put up to the world that we represent.  I feel that. Yes, I've lived that.\"\u003cbr/\u003eJay made the comments at the launch party for the upcoming NBA 2K13 video game, where he acted as the game's executive producer. \u003cbr/\u003eGrowing up poor in Brooklyn, Jay says as a child he dreamed of glory on the basketball court.\u003cbr/\u003e\"You know the three-two-one; oh he hits the winning shot.
