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

ugh, thank christ this missed top 10. so awful. painful to see two rappers that go on about the same thing every song in the top 20.
Cry Me Out, 3rd consecutive top 10 for Pixie almost there wooh. should be the Christmas #1 TBH! :( But I guess it will be Stacey and Miley fighting for it like Alex and Jeff Buckley did last year.
Hope Pixie can crack the top ten next week. The video for 'Cry Me Out' is awful, though. I was hoping for something, well, Christmasy with her walking through the snow or something.

 

No! Thank god it wasn't some cheap, generic Christmas video in which she wore a cheap red trench coat (see 'Issues' video), a wooly hat and some 'cute' little wellies. The video is taking her in a better direction than before, even if this single will suffer a little because of it.

 

I love ESoM still :wub:

Cry Me Out is way better than the first two singles... Hope it goes top 10 next week :wub:

who are Stacey & Miley?

who are Stacey & Miley?

 

X Factor Stacey Solomon and Miley Cyrus. The Climb is the X Factor winner's single unfortunately :(

 

Though I think Rage could be Xmas #2 at this rate :o

Good tune for 30 Seconds to Mars and the video is a lot better than there past clips probaly because of the frontman's past as an actor.
