Jay Z’s Mentor Jaz-O Recalls Giving Hov The Gun He Used To Shoot His Brother At 12 Years Old

Full Article: https://hiphopdx.com/news/id.67489/title.jay-z-mentor-jaz-o-talks-giving-hov-the-gun-he-used-to-shoot-his-brother JAY-Z has undoubtedly influenced an entire generation of rappers, although not many can say they influenced JAY-Z. But Jaz-O can. Raised in the same Marcy Houses project as Hov, the “Originator” (as he’s often referred to) took the young JAY-Z under his wing and featured him on his 1990 single “The Originators.” Needless to say, Jaz-O witnessed the future Hip Hop billionaire grow up and evolve into the powerhouse he is today. In a new interview with VladTV, Jaz-O was asked about the time JAY-Z shot his drug-addicted older brother Eric Carter in the shoulder for allegedly stealing his ring and simultaneously wound up admitting it was his gun.
