Considered one of the best lyricists to emerge in the wake of the Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac's deaths, Jay-Z has since carried the flag of hip-hop narrative skill. His Roc-A-Fella family had already created a solid reputation based on Jay-Z's 1997 debut. As his fame has grown, so has his tendency to bring more R&B production elements into his work, creating a club-friendly, danceable version of east coast gangsta hip-hop that hasn't diminished his reputation as a preeminent force in rap. Perhaps even more importantly, Jay-Z has become a powerful music impresario. In his role as president/CEO of Def Jam in the early 2000s, he fostered the careers of popular R&B singers Rihanna and Ne-Yo, and enjoyed a high profile as a co-owner of the New Jersey Nets basketball team. His long relationship and eventual marriage to superstar Beyonce has further endeared him to fans - HMV

If you're gonna say that, you could specify which one you think it borrows from...

 

i know, its bugging me, i'm thinking Level 42 or something

 

I love ESOM :wub:

Hopefully it can eventually go to #1, but this week was its only chance imo unfortunately :(

She Wolf is vastly-overrated. It has the potential to be fantastic, but Shakira's vocals are awful. She sounds off-key in the chorus.

This is a million times better than Run This Town.....

Anything is a million times better than Run This Town <_>

oh yeah David Guetta - sexy bitch is available on Physical at amazon.de

That must be an import I guess, because it wasn't released in the UK as far as I know

Ugh, another song kept back because of David and Akon..
