While The Blueprint 3 was far from classical Jay-Z, this Concerto in Roc minor certainly brings the symphony to the Hip-Hop radio halls. It’s Bach meets Brooklyn, Rossini meets RiRi! No Kanyeezy though. His verse was much too vulgar for high society. If you’re unfamiliar with E.S. Posthumus, check their background. This is what they [...]

“bitch I said that I’m amazing, not that I’m a Mason”
Rawse breaks down the epicness of the record and how he basically packaged the concept and presented it to Jay as a platform to address the Illuminati bullshit. He explains that he hadn’t even titled the song yet when he played it for Jay, but [...]

I saw Despicable Me last weekend and I’m not the least bit ashamed. Steve Carell was his usual hilarious self, turning in a nice performance while those little minions were good for a few laughs. I’m not surprised that I laughed a few times. I am surprised, though, that I was doing a little [...]

I double checked with some reputable Jay scholars and the general consensus seems to be that he's talking about a car. A friend suggested I pose the question to TRU Nation and see if anyone knows exactly what that line is about. Anyone?

Pollstar just released their 2010 mid-year concert report that tracks the financial performance of artist tours. Although people love to hate, Black Eyed Peas come in at #6 grossing $29.5 million for the first half of the year. Jay-Z comes in at #12 with $22.5 million. These numbers might look low across the board compared [...]

Rick Ross should do the right thing and give this track to Jay-Z. I say that because he is merely an after thought on what's really a Jay-Z affair.

The song “Free Mason” is a big enough event, and with strong enough content, that I don’t understand how this teaser trailer adds to the conversation. I would absolutely love to see footage of the recording process (and clearly Ross’ in-house videographers Spiff-TV caught this all), but 30-seconds of Jay and Ross vibing, with Trey [...]

Rick Ross goes to Jay’s Vegas show to play him his first verse on Free Mason, three times, and then Jay spits his verse.

DJ Khaled premiered this song on his show down in Miami, and boasted via twitter about showing how to break a record. I hope the big homie didn’t see that, lol. But it’s hard to go wrong with a song like this : ) Either way, props to Lowkey/UHTN/NMC for getting the CDQ version so [...]

Rawse brings along Hov & John Legend for what could possibly be the biggest collaboration (in name at least) on Teflon Don. What it brings in stature doesn’t make up for the lack of vigor which just isn’t present. It’s there with the production, sounding like a fitting puzzle piece for a Blaxploitation soundtrack. Lyrically, [...]

So far all of the tracks that have been leaked off Teflon Don sound huge. Once again Ricky & Hova connect to make a movie.
I loving this track (Produced by The Inkredibles) but will there be anything left when it does actually leak drop?
