163 Words1 Page

When Jay Z was Younger he was a Drug dealer, not really a drug user but more of a vender. His brother on the other hand, Eric Carter, was a Cocaine addict. Keep in mind Jay Z Was 12 and his brother was 16. His brother didn't have money at the time to purchase Cocaine so he stole Jay Z’s ring to sell and buy more coke. Jay Z soon found out he stole his ring and got angry of course. In an interview Jay Z mentioned when telling the story that like drugs and alcohol, guns were a normal thing where he grew up, the Marcy Projects. Jay went on to say, “ Guns were everywhere, you didn't have to go far to find a gun.” He ended up shooting his brother in the shoulder, a non lethal hit but landed him in the hospital for a while.
