The chorus hook I got 99 problems, but a bitch ain't one is taken from the Ice-T single 99 Problems from the album Home Invasion (1993). The hook was coined during a conversation between Ice-T Brother Marquis of Miami-based 2 Live Crew. Marquis later used the phrase in the 1996 2 Live Crew song Table Dance . • In the song, Jay-Z tells a story about dealing with rap critics, racial profiling from a police officer who wants to search his car, and an aggressor. The song reached number 30 on the Billboard Hot 100. • 99 Problems is the third single released by American rapper Jay-Z in 2004 from The Black Album. The chorus hook I got 99 problems, but a bitch ain't one is taken from the Ice-T single 99 Problems from the album Home Invasion (1993). The hook was coined during a conversation between Ice-T Brother Marquis of Miami-based 2 Live Crew. Marquis later used the phrase in the 1996 2 Live Crew song Table Dance . • In the song, Jay-Z tells a story about dealing with rap critics, racial profiling from a police officer who wants to search his car, and an aggressor. The song reached number 30 on the Billboard Hot 100. • The second verse, describing Jay-Z's traffic stop, has received much more attention than the rest of the song. • The second verse was based on an actual experience of Jay-Z in the 1990s in New Jersey. Jay-Z wrote that in 1994 he was pulled over by police while carrying cocaine in a secret compartment in his sunroof. Jay-Z refused to let the police search the car and the police called for the drug sniffing dogs. However, the dogs never showed up and the police had to let Jay-Z go. Moments after he drove away, he wrote that he saw a police car with the dogs drive by. Jay-Z's contention that he was pulled over for being black was later confirmed to have been common practice by the New Jersey police. In a discussion at the Celeste Bartos Forum at the New York Public Library, Jay-Z described the second verse as representing a contest of wills between the car's driver who is all the way in the wrong for carrying illegal drugs, and a racist police officer who pulls over a driver not for any infraction but for being African-American. Both guys are used to getting their way and thus reluctant to back down, Jay-Z notes, and the driver knows a bit about the law because he's used to breaking it and asserts his legal rights. • In 2011 Southwestern Law School Professor Caleb Mason wrote an article with a line-by-line analysis of the second verse of the song from a legal perspective referencing the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution, citing it as a useful tool for teaching law students search and seizure law involving search warrants, Terry stops, racial profiling, the exclusionary rule, and the motor vehicle exception. Mason writes that some of Jay-Z's lyrics are legally accurate and describe prudent behavior (e.g., identifying when police ask for consent to search, specifically asking if one is under arrest, and complying with the police order to stop rather than fleeing which would certainly result in a search of the car and might authorize police to use lethal force to stop a high speed chase). However, Mason also notes the song lyrics are legally incorrect in indicating that a driver can refuse an order to exit the car and that police would need a warrant to search a locked glove compartment or trunk (in fact, police would need probable cause to search a car). In 2012, Professor Emir Crowne of the University of Windsor's, Faculty of Law wrote the Canadian Response to Professor Mason's article. In it, he concludes that Jay-Z's lyrics may be legally correct under Canadian Law. • While the song's meaning is widely debated, the chorus If you're having girl problems, I feel bad for you son/I've got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one was defined in Jay-Z's book, Decoded, as referring to something different in each verse. In verse two, it refers to a police dog. • President Obama quipped, in his humorous monologue at the White House Correspondents' Dinner on April 27, 2013: Some things are beyond my control. For example, this whole controversy about Jay-Z going to Cuba - it's unbelievable. I've got 99 problems and now Jay-Z is one. • -------------------------------------------------- • Follow Us: • https://www.hhbars.com • / realhhbars • / realhhbars • / realhhbars • #jayz #raplyrics #hiphoplyrics #lyrics
