If you had a bunch of professors and they were all like these legendary r<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ers, he\u2019d definitely be the hardest professor to get by, like 100%. So I try to write raps that would get by that guy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He continued, \u201cAs somebody that raps, we all have our vulnerable moments, we\u2019re gonna talk about vulnerable shit, that\u2019s fine. But, you know, that egotistical part of the rap shit, in your heart, you\u2019d be like, \u2018I\u2019m the best there is.\u2019 If you don\u2019t feel that way, you probably shouldn\u2019t be rapping. In your heart, you should feel like, \u2018Yo, I\u2019m the best.\u2019<\/p>\n<div class=\"innerAdHatch\" inserted=\"shortcode\" style=\"margin: 10px 0 11px -10px\">\n<div id=\"contentUnit\u201c300\u201d\" class=\"adUnits\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n                        if(isMobile){\n                            CMNUNT.load(\"content-b\", { \n                                containerid: \"contentUnit\u201c300\u201d\",\n                                keywords: \"section_post_inarticle\",\n                                lazyLoad: true\n                            });\n                        }\n                    <\/script>\u201cAnd I think when somebody I admired and learned from my entire life, to say something like that to me or just tell me that he\u2019s listening, it\u2019s not \u2019cause I needed validation or anything like that. This is like a full circle moment, I really dreamt of this day. I think I manifested it about a thousand times through life, like, \u2018I know Hov\u2019s gonna hear my shit.\u2019 And it happened, you know? That\u2019s a special thing right there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In fact, Belly says he manifested getting JAY-Z\u2019s approval shortly before dropping his 2015 mixtape <em>Up for Days,<\/em> which was released under Roc Nation Records.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMan, I spoke about it three weeks before it happened,\u201d he revealed. \u201cThree weeks before, Jay heard my album the first time. He heard <em>Up for Days,<\/em> which was a mixtape. And about three weeks before he heard it, I was sitting in The London hotel in New York. I had my team with me, probably like five or six people. The album was done, we were getting ready to start pushing it and all that. And I was like, \u2018Watch, Hov is gonna hear this.\u2019 And that was literally three weeks before I got a call telling me, \u2018Yo, Hov is currently listening to your shit.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"innerAdHatch\" inserted=\"shortcode\" style=\"margin: 10px 0 11px -10px\">\n<div id=\"contentUnit\u201c400\u201d\" class=\"adUnits\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n                        if(isMobile){\n                            CMNUNT.load(\"content-b\", { \n                                containerid: \"contentUnit\u201c400\u201d\",\n                                keywords: \"section_post_inarticle\",\n                                lazyLoad: true\n                            });\n                        }\n                    <\/script>He added, \u201cI know a whole bunch of things went into play in that moment, but in that moment I really felt like I manifested something.
