Fuck Harvey Levin and anybody that loves his celebrity news website. First you prematurely pronounce the impending death of Lil Wayne (Weezy Forgives. We Don't.) and then you try to link the horrific actions of one of the Boston Marathon culprits to our culture? "DEAD BOMBING SUSPECT: HEAVY INTO HIP HOP" You don't say? It's 2013 and most kids are into rap music. We've been penetrated pop culture, you cock suckers. "What's interesting... hip-hop lyrics are notoriously violent and often degrading to women." So our music is at fault in this tragedy? Let's be clear the only bombs my culture cosigns is DJ Funkmaster Flex's sound effects. Thirty Mile Zone is prone to post anything to get traffic. Fuck dude and his coffee cup. Get you a Rap Radar cup and drink with us in the winner's circle.
Yo Mister Cee, the people feel threatened! Soliciting prostitutes is illegal and this is the second time your private affairs have been publicized. Get some help...and a room! —B.Dot
Since 1997, Frank Sinatra’s “New York New York” has been the theme song at the Belmont Stakes. But now, officials from the New York Racing Association say the cut will be replaced by Jay-Z’s “Empire State Of Mind” during their 142nd running this Saturday. According to the AP, reps say the track is the “quintessential 21st century theme song for New York City.” The song will be performed by teen singer, Jasmine Villegas. Hip-hop wins by a nose!
Wow that’s big. Congrats on that Jay.
Legendary.
THAT’S MAJOR!!!! KEEP MAKIN’ ‘EM MAD JAY!!!! HA!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Hov told them on BP2 he did it his way.. Nigga is a boss

She makes the song..with out her the song wouldint be what it is now..
But still Congrats Hovito!!

Cosing wit pitri!
Alicia keys made the song wat it is… But still Salute 2 Jay
*cosign
@ PITRI
Shut the fuck up, congrats JayZ
@ PITRI
How comes if Alicia Keyes made the song her version didn’t even crack the top 30 charts and why has BP3 outsold her album by 800,000 copies so far.
Big congrats to Jay but I think both songs should be used since both sum up NYC so well.
@Flawda..Were not talkin about her song or albums…were talkin about EMPIRE STATE OF MIND…and The Highlight of THAT song is Keys..it wouldint be the same without her..
iCongrats Jayz. ………………………………………………………………………………………………..ok!
but who can judge this as the new anthem, if not the people !!
it needs an election from THE N.Y PEOPLE !!!
but it’s a good look for him and new generation from new york
ps:
I Need A Dollar > ESOM
^ street anthem talk !!!
awesome, peace.
^ im not tryin to take anythin away from jay its just they dint even mention Alicia in this post at all..they’re makin it seem like its all jay..
^COSIGN
AND I LIKE JAYS MUSIC SO MUCH
IM NOT HATIN’, IM JUST SAYIN’ IT DESERVE MORE JUDGEMENT !
Pitri
You the biggest jay hater out there bro. We know u love Vanilla Ice oh I mean marky mark oh my bad em.
Camel face?
Song would be trash without Alicia…
even when it’s BK aka Briget Kely who sing the hook, it’s needed to carry the song !!! this iz the identity of the song !!! shout out to jiggaman nevadaless, big money everyday it’s more doe, easy…
money goes to the money
[...] source [...]
Mary J Blige easilly could of been A Keyes on that song, she is interchangable. Matter of fact, Brigette Kelly does a better version than her.
Jay Z is doing it BIG!!!!
Jay and Alicia Keys make the song what it is. He was the one who made the decision to put Alicia Keys on the song and he aint rapping no wack shit on it. Jay ran this rap shit in ’09 and lets face it he still the best in the game without him these dudes would all be singing and making love songs.
Flawda, actually it’s only sold over 500K and that is because Alicia came out in December and Jay Z came out in September..You can’t compare album sales that are months apart. Also, Alicia’s part of ESOM pt 2 actually spent more days in the top 10 on the UK charts and is still in the top 40 over there…Gotta research son.
Doesn’t take anything away from Jay, but you don’t see people going around quoting the verse of the song………The big hook is definitely what made it. jay is still amazing..Love him.
Oh God!!!! now on his next album he’s gonna say he’s BIGGER THAN FRANK SINATRA
smh…
it cracks me up that peepo swear Jay didnt spit on that tune “say what up to tah tah, still sippin Mai tai, sittin courtside knicks and nets give me hi fives.”
“im the sinitra and since i made here, i can make it anywhere, yeah they love me everywhere”
The original chicks who wrote the chorus told Jay if they can put Alicia Keys on their cuz 1 of the chicks was told that she sounds like Alicia.
For the record they mention Jay cuz it was on Jay’s album that he excuetive produce, so why would’nt they say Jay- the new Sinitra
wow that’s huge, congrats hov
Does this give him legendary status?
@PITRI
I’m pretty sure the anthem is actually gonna be all ALICIA KEYS…
smh @ people riding Jay’s dick so hard for this one … yea its a good ass song… but we could fuckin cut Jay’s verses and the song would have probably been just as succesfull …. oh wait that actually happend
gunsdrugsbitches…….but its better as a dual.
Should be Alicia Keys feat jay z
OMFG, shut the fuck up
They both make the song great, u dnt see artist and producers arguing about this shit, just hip hop critics, just show love to both artist and just shut the fuck up
Congrats to Jay, Alicia hasn’t complained, so why are y’all, they both made the song, and im pretty sure Jay acknowleged her as the gentlemen that he is
This anthem progression shows where New York as a State, City and OUR Country has grown exponentialy over the past 2-3 decades. Hip-Hop changed the world. It’s a double edged sword though.
HOV KEEPS WINNING AND HATERS CAN’T STAND HIM
HOV THE G.O.A.T
MOST HIP HOP CLASSICS HAVE OTHER PEOPLE ON THE HOOK I.E. STAN BY EMINEM FT. DIDO AND THE LIST GOES ON AND ON.
I’M THE NEW SINATRA
AND SINCE I MADE IT HERE I CAN MAKE IT ANYWHERE
HOV THE G.O.A.T.
This is hilarious. Congrats to Jay but, did they even listen to jays lyrics? I mean this was the yankees anthem in the world series and he performed right in front of the mayor lol now this? wow. White people are fools.
“I used to cop in Harlem
All of my Dominicanos (Hey yo)
Right there off of Broadway
Brought me back to that McDonalds
Took it to my stash spot
560 State Street
Catch me in the kitchen like Simmons whipping Pastry”
“Hail Mary to the city your a Virgin,
and Jesus can’t save you life starts when the church ends”

LOL, 85 percent of white people don’t listen to lyrical content. Who do you think is buyin up all this soulja boy,
Ol’ Blue Eyes, my nigga, I did it my way …
What can’t this guy do?
@iam2smooth….i cosign what you said COMPLETELY!!!
Can you guys stop hating on Jay and just appreciate that he is the one representing hip hop. If you could chose, who else would you want to represent it? Jay is the only logical answer and that’s supported by every major thing that he accomplishers. Love him or hate him, this guy does nothing but win…and you guys do nothing but hate.
@ BRONX, NY
THAT’S WUT MAKES JAY SO ILL!!!! AND HE’S BEEN DOIN’ THIS SHIT FOR YEARS!!!! HA!!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
@BRONX,NY .. Yeah it is funny that hes talkin bout slangin dope in that song.. And alot of people dont dont understand the slang so it goes over there heads..
@damone
What makes me Being a Em fan have to do with this??
And how the fuck em i a jay hater?? plz explain..
WHO GIVES A FUCK IF ALICIA MADE IT HOTT OR NOT!….YA’LL BUNCH OF HATERS GIVE A NIGGA PROPS WITH OUT SAYING NUTHING NEGATIVE U HATING ASS NIGGAZ!….CONGRATS TO HOVIE HOV IS THE COLDEST!………..
^
They’re so sad. I like Alicia and all but ANYBODY could’ve sung that hook and it would have been a hit. The HOOK IS THE REAL STAR, but it was Jay’s song that he INVITED Alicia to be apart of FACT!
HOV!
