New single to receive it's first play on Edith Bowman's show in the next half an hour.

 

I'm excited. :dancing:

 

I always love Kanye collaborations! :wub:

This is on Jay's myspace, and man it's HOT. This is a surefire Urban smash. I don't think the hook is that instant, but after a couple of plays I found it really addictive. Jay's really come back hard this era.

He really has! I feel like he's about to be huge again. This has a really genuine, epic vibe and it's infectious with it.

Just heard this premiered on 1Xtra, it's so good. :dance:

 

EDIT: Here it is:

 

EDIT2: I have a link :teresa:

I really hope he is huge again, with the release of 'The Blueprint 3'.

Judging by this single and D.O.A., I think this era could be pretty successful! :P

 

Love it!

Kanye on ANOTHER song? :heehee: I don't like Jay-Z but Rihanna and Kanye have never appeared on a song I don't like so I'm sure it'll grow.

i was really looking forward to the album - now i'm not.

 

 

dissapointed.

Any song with Rihanna and Kanye West on it is going to massive.

 

I'm not blown away on a first listen, but I can see it growing. Is gonna be hugeeee.

WOW. REALLY like it. It's the sorta thing Eminem should have comeback with. It sounds quite old-school, but at the same time very fresh and current. I wouldn't mind a link if it's not too much trouble please :kink:

It's on it's way :kink:

Oh I love it! :o :wub: Rihanna sounds great on it too, I'm pretty sure it'll be massive.

What were you expecting?

It's good!

What were you expecting?

 

well i after hearing he was collaborating with Kayne, i expected something just like this, but i expect more from Jay-Z, this comes to nothing of what he is capable of based on his other albums, i liked 'Jockin Jay Z' though.

 

its like, this will be massive based on the fact it features rihanna and kayne, it should be massive based on how good a hip hop artist Jay-Z is.

Jay-Z is hardly in it to say it's his song, same with Mr. Hudson 'Supernova'

exactly. although i'd take a guess that Jay-Z produced it? but Jay-Z is strongest on his own imo.

I thought Rihanna was strongest tbh, maybe because she's on chorus so has more parts

Jay-Z has been in the game for thirteen years though, nobody keeps selling over the course of a decade and a half and eleven studio albums unless they evolve. Just 'being Jay-Z' isn't enough, just like 'being Madonna' wasn't enough 8 years after her debut, and just like 'being Lady GaGa' won't be enough in a year or two.

 

I would've actually thought people would be into this because despite the guest artists it's very old-school and epic and it doesn't really succumb to current trends. And it seems a lot of people do like it precisely because of that fact...

I'm pretty sure Mr Hudson does sing more than Kanye in 'Supernova'. :mellow:

Just to point out, Rihanna is on the chorus, but she does not have more lines than Jay-Z and if you think otherwise, you're crazy. Her part is the most memorable because she sings the hook, but Jay's flow is still strong. Ye's verse is pure genius, too.
