29 12 2008

DJ Khaled feat. Jay-z, Kanye, & T-Pain – Go Hard Remix

Jay-z hops on the beat Kanye once “fucked up so bad won’t nobody want to get up on it”. Unfortunately no new Kanye verse here, but still worth checking out. Who went hard on this track, Ye or Jay? Hit up the full story.

Dope or Nope 12/08 – Another Jay-z Brooklyn Anthem

8 12 2008

Jay-z feat. MC Lyte – BK Anthem

Jay’s second Brooklyn track this month (see last Monday’s DoN Brooklyn (Go Hard)). I’m not sure if this will be featured on Blueprint 3 or the Notorious Soundtrack, hence the Biggie shout outs. Production wise it’s not the greatest, but Hov flows nicely over this beat. What you think? Peep the full story for the download link.

Born Dayz: Happy Birthday To My Nigga Uche & Jay-z!

4 12 2008


Happy Birthday to my nigga Uche aka Uch aka Uch Da God aka Uch Supremo aka Uche Wally aka Uchechuku! Enjoy your day my nig and we’re about to be loaded this weekend!


Also, Happy Birthday to the Jiggaman. Jay-z makes 39 today, proving that there is a such thing as longevity in hip hop. While other artists took shots at Jay for his age, I consider that an accomplishment to be above the average age in rap and still highly active. The Blupeprint 3 drops February ’09!

Takin’ Em Back – 11/14

15 11 2008

Jay-z – Dead Presidents

One of my favorite Jay tracks ever! The rhymes, the beat, and the Nas sampled hook is all classic. I don’t agree with the Jiggaman saying Nas was using his voice wrong cause “The World is Yours” (where Jay got the sample from) is one of the illest hip hop joints.

Polls Is Talkin’: The Most Anticipated Fall Release Is…

23 10 2008


Bases off a poll asking what is the most highly anticipated Fall release, Kanye West won by a long shot. It was obvious that that was the most hyped since 808s & Heartbreak has been the biggest topic on all hip hop sites. With everyone curious to see if this album will be a hit or miss, it will definitely do good numbers. 808s and Heartbreak will easily be one of the more interesting albums this year. And no, that’s not the album cover, just a sample I threw together. Click the link below to see the interesting results.
