Jay Z and Busta Rhymes attended George Westinghouse High School in Brooklyn together, alongside the late-Notorious B.I.G. — all of whom made it big in the music industry.
Busta Rhymes later told MTV that he and Jay Z had a rap battle in the school cafeteria and the future Hov came out victorious.
"He kind of got the best of the situation. I got to give it up. He was so ill and his arsenal was so long that he had more than what I did. I spit my one rap, and my tank was empty real fast. He came with two or three after that, and I was like, 'Here we go.' But I gave it my best," Busta Rhymes said.
