About time.

This fucking guy is unbelievable, but smart. He decided to finally release this video the moment Beanie put him on blast, to throw people off track and have them look at him in a positive light. Fucking guy is the Hulk Hogan of the rap, dirtiest politician in the rap game and behind the scenes, ask all the veteran acts at Def Jam. Beans showed the world what he’s really about.
And 50 became the catalyst the moment he said Beans fought all Jay’s battles. About time somebody brought that up.
Hail Mary To The City Your A Virgin And Jesus Can’t Save You Life Starts When the Church End.
WTF!!! :O
I like Jay-z but WTF!!!

This Chicagoan loves the fuck out of Empire State of Mind. Great video.
What you talkin bout Brace? He definately shot this video before the whole beans thing and even dropped a teaser before the beans thing. Im pretty sure he didn’t plan it so people so him in a nice light… he just did it because people love the song.
Jay z hate 50 cent,i hate jay z !!
The video been done for like 2 weeks already, why not drop it earlier? C’mon Jaimezz think about that, he gonna drop the official video the day Beans got in his ass and exposed him? He had all this motivation going the whole week and Beanie came out of nowhere and took it away from him with that diss track. The only way he was gonna be able to turn that negative exposure to positive was to release this “long awaited” video a few hours after Kay Slay blasted that Beans track.
some of yall fools with this devil shit. your so pressed on sayin he work for the devil yet you never talk bout what you do or the other side of it. like oh dat nigga work for the devil. what?!?! cause he successful he work for the devil. my father is successful and dont work for no devil. yall ideas are just crazy some of yall shouldnt even be listenin to this shit if you cant take it for what its worth. its music. entertainment. go out and do somethin. stop tryin to press ya madness on all these people all the time. and if you think its filled with devil shit why you always postin shit about the devil talk about god or somethin. your using your negativity on somethin you think is negative. go to the hospital and tell them you think jay z is the devils music. get help. like forreal
OMG…I miss New-York!!!!!
New York Stand Up!!!!!
The King BE proud of your home, be proud of your son, the king
i think this song is one of them songs that you cant help but nod your head to.. i aint from new york but i would feel proud as shit to this anthem.. video makes me want to jump on a plane and get over there now.. jigga and alica killed it!!! salute “””
oh and by the way atron is spot on.. fuck every hater sayin jay and others are part of the illuminati you fools have way to much time on your hands… i seen a 50 interview on wshh and there was a mirror in the back-round and some clown wrote look at eye shape mirror behind 50 he must be part of the illuminati!! hahaha come on jus cause these cats are successful business men they have to be linked to the devil everyone who belives in that shit should start looking at themselves and stop being negative get off there ass and do something with there life’s..
he dropped the video the day after he performed it at YANKEE STADIUM…DICKHEADS!!! IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BEANIE SIGEL. YALL SOOOO DUMB.
I wish he woulda adlibed the “DAT BOY GOOD” part.
Fuk this DEVIL Worshiping as nigga
Not to invite anymore Nasir comparisons to the song, but doesnt the video feel like a 2009 version of If I Ruled The World…
So Icy Boi- You mad cause you think he worships the devil, but you cussin him out about it. How Godly are you?!
Nice video. This song never gets old.
“Let’s hear it for New York”………..Hell Fucking Yes.
And if he is a devil worshipper and you are all Godly why even sweat him(ie, watch his videos, listen to his songs, comments on posts about him)??? Why even care??? He is not fucking with your life.
Piece of Advice, change the station, turn the channel, hell stay off the internet. Go live in a church, or better yet under a rock.
Loved the video.
BK IS FROM TEXAS!
SMH @ being a devil worshiper and being illuminati/ mason … LOL masons belive in God you morons, they were discussing them on MSNBC the day … LOL niggas know nothing
Do you think the people who buy his album and attend his concerts care about what’s coming out of Beanie Siegel’s mouth? I mean honestly, have you listened to “Already Home”?

lmao @ brace
…as if niggas really schedule music video releases around a beanie sigel diss song. beans ain’t relevant enough in 2010 (may as well fast forward) to harm jay-z. its clout vs. clout. outside of the internet, nobody even cares about this situation.
as for the video… shit is mad lonely. like, new york is a busy ass place right? it woulda been nice to see locals all up in the camera wildin out while jay and alicia sang…those “by themselves” shots just dead the epic feel of the song. blah…
whatever, never been a fan of jay-z videos…except that hard knock life and 99 problems. yep…and big pimpin gets the vote for obvious reasons 😉

hova is not a devil worshipper. the video is dope. rap music needs controversy and that’s a shame. maybe if beans dropped a dope album he wouldn’t release a diss song. anybody dat bought jay z album doesn’t care bout this at all. anybody that illegally downloaded it for free is talkin bout this.

That’s a classic video!!!
WU TANG CLAN AIN’T NUTHIN’ TA FUCK WIT
Shit dope as hell & Alicia Keys looking real NICEEEEE! Almost makes Jay look like a sidekick lol! Real nice visuals I already wanted to go to NY & this makes me want to even more!
I’m pretty sure the release of this video has NOTHING TO DO with the Beans situation. Nobody much cares about that except Beans and a few bloggers & hip hop sites with too much time and not enough news on their hands. I mean, seriously….
