    No chance whatsoever, he'll be lucky to get a free bottle of Ace of Spades.

Stranger things have happened...
      Whispering in rap songs was never his to trademark. Slick Rick did it in the 80s and Bone thugz in the 90s.

        Do you listen to rap? There is a difference between regular old whispering like Bone Thugs did and how Jay-Z utilizes whispering in his flow.

          It's possible he could get something, but I doubt it.

            Yes but the fact remains whispering wasnt his to trademark. Thats like the guy who patented eggs over easy suing the dude who made eggs sunnyside up just cuz its similar.

              if anyone should be accusing Jay of stealing the "whisper" flow, it should be Young Chris or the Young Gunz a member of his own record label. The suit this dude wears to court is gonna be worth more than he gets from Jay, i hope this is a joke.

                  This is a complete joke and the reason why our legal system looks like a complete joke sometimes...If this ever even goes to court it would be an embarassment. You cant put a patent on whispering raps, its completely rediculous...Thats like saying whoever screams loudly in raps could get sued by little jon, its the ******est thing ive ever heard
