The phrase "Kingdom Come" means the next lifetime, so when Jay-Z asks if you're "Ready for Kingdom Come," he's asking if you are prepared for death and comfortable with your legacy. He proceeds to list his accomplishments, stating that he is prepared for the next life and implying that his impact goes beyond this life on Earth.

He is known for manipulating the speed of the samples he uses.
