Jay-Z sat down with Bill Maher several nights ago and talked about Hip Hop, ‘rap beef’ and his music. So basically said nothing that I haven’t heard come out of his mouth before. Then a FAWNING Maher presents Jay with a thick hardcover book (as thick as the Bible), of every lyric to every song he’s ever released. How unbelievably EXTRA! I feel sorry for the intern who was lumbered with the job of having to compile the lyrics to each […]

Taken from Jay-Z’s “HIGHLY ANTICIPATED” forthcoming album ‘Blue Print 3’, the single ‘Off That’ produced by Timbaland is actually quite good. For some reason it takes me back to the Jay of old. I like it and will give it the thumbs up. Anyway click HERE to listen. Your thoughts please. Hit or Miss?

Oh stupid question! It’s because it’s a “mighty Hov” production. I am old enough to remember when […]
