2599898, isn't 'Empire State of Mind' one of the most deceptively
Posted by Dr Claw, Mon Sep-12-11 11:14 AM
saccharine songs in the Jay-Z catalog? like... this song borders "Bonnie and Clyde '03" levels of pure Splenda sprinkling, despite having drums straight out of the Hitchhiker's Guide to Hip-Hop.

peace to dEs, Lee Lee squatted and spread DA PEE PEE all over that track like R. Kelly in the rafters of a junior high girl's locker room.

lest you think that this is a Jay-Z hate post, I'd rather hear an "Money, Cash, Hoes" with extra Sun Ra keyboard knuckledragging action over that shit. Jay better than that BS.

shit, I'd rather BLAST the most "Shower to Shower"-ass Drake song over that shit. at least it'd feel honest in its Tresvantiness.

man, I'm glad Jay came out with WTT...that'd be a wack note to go out on BP3.
