New Music: Drake x Jay-Z “Light Up”

Seems as if, BP isn’t the only one with a leak problem these days. With less than a month away until the release of Drake’s debut, The Evil Empire got a hold of his collabo with Jay-Z. It’s tagged, but that’s even more reason to cop Thank Me Later on June 15th.

    “Because you need to quit buyin dumb shit”

  10. So Icy Boi! says:

    I hate “The Evil Empire” every time they leak a song they gotta play their tag every 10 seconds

  11. ronnie_moe says:

    Shits Hot!!!

    Drake’s verse>>>>>>Jay’s

  12. t says:

    icey i swear u a jay stan undercover… that was the quikest hating in history. faster than my fingers could type in 10 words . hahhhhh

  13. Marcus Troy says:

    My comments never appear on RR! What gives BDOT?

  14. So Icy Boi! says:

    @t WTF u waiting on my comments for nigga?

  15. Aaron says:

    Is it just me or does Drake sound the same again? Oh well, another okay record(not blown away by anything yet)…..Thank Me Later sure isn’t matching the hype. I think some people are going to be shocked how low the first week numbers will be. Does anybody else think Drake is better suited for R&B rather than Hip Hop.

  16. dissapointed says:

    really expected more from this track

  17. So Icy Boi! says:

    @ t ..thats because i didnt even listen to the whole song tho lol

  18. James says:

    WOOOOOOOOW
    THIS TRACK WAS AMAZING, IM SPEECHLESS
    WOW, im definitely koppin’ now, wow
    Wow….. :O

  19. t-dub says:

    i feel bad for drake for this shit leaking….

  20. t says:

    in all fairness icey if your ass was to release a record the whole RR community would listen to that sh?t cos we would wna listen to this good music u always claim u kniw. cos when that heat comes out u always the first in line to wana drench it with your pipe. and i aint gon pause that sh?t… release a record ma nigg so that we can critique . get th lynch mob out. fukkkk

  21. nycccccc says:

    its okay nuttin that blew me away like forever

  22. t says:

    do u listen to songs or do u jus skim thru em ?

  23. obiu akbar says:

    imma put shit up, dis dude aint gonna do more dan 200k first week. and dis fucc boi sed he is 03′ 50 cent. hahahahha. see wat happens wen u hype urself up too much, ppl den wanna see u fail.
    look at d corny hand shake he gave jay z in d pic. wat a loser

    obiu akbur

  24. I'm Your Future Boss! says:

    This track was overrated i got mixed emotion for jay’s verse.

  25. Drizzle-Nutz says:

    Tell me Drizzy didnt kill his verse? He held up against one of the GOATs

    TML i will be copping 2 copies on 6.15.

  26. will says:

    the more and more songs leak it make you not want to get the album like this shit is alrite and Niggas is Crazy Talking about Drake verse was better than Jay-Z alot of shit Drake say is so simple “Make nigga Nervous Prom Night” wtf thats hot cuz LOL I hating whatever you niggas like but him and TI songs they come like everyday and them shits is way subpar especially TI i aint gon lie that video he had was hot but is music aint buyable i Guess becuz Im still off this kush and orang juice and this distant relatives that shit is very simple right now

  27. flawda says:

    smh anyone saying Drakes verse is better clearly shows how dumb hiphop fans are nowadays and don’t understand double entandres, metaphors, while staying on topic. They like those cheesy ass Wayne and Drake punchlines like ” i wear bright red like a girls toe”. No wonder why Reasonable Doubt went over you niggas heads.

  28. jay z fan HOVA!! says:

    my nigga jay-z went in, but that nigga Drake’s verse is on a whole notha level…

    drakes verse >>>>>>> jay’s verse

    nigga hov got renegaded again smh.

  29. reef says:

    he never killed hov… u got to listen closer 4 the triple entondras(or however u spell it) lol…. they both did their thing

  30. John says:

    Wow this is crazy nice

  31. So Icy Boi! says:

    @ t (pause) at ya commented …first all im not a rapper ….and not a hater …but to me Jay-Z and Drake got the same flow to me BORING!…….i just keep skip throw different parts in the song

  32. Pyth says:

    So Umm Hi Drake How Are Ya’? You Know Since Your Alicia Keys, Lil’ Wayne, TheDream & Jeezy Tracks Leaked We Have No Reason To Buy Your Album Sorry. Who Am I Fooling Drizzy I Was Never Going To Buy It I Was Speaking On Behalf Of The Rest Of Hip-Hop! If You Were Smart You Would Have Let Your Solo Tracks Leak And Guarded The Features What Exactly Did They Teach You Kids A Degrassi High??? Every Song I Wanted To Hear Has Leaked So I Guess Now Is That “Later” Time You Kept Asking Us To Thank You For Huh? Well I Wasn’t Impressed So I’ll Give You A Lil’ Time To Get It Together And Then You Can “Apologize To Me Later”

  33. Drizzle-Nutz says:

    No one can touch HOV, but Drake kilt it. Give him his credit NIGGA(NO EXPERIAN!) lol

  34. Cli-City says:

    Yall aint catch what the fuck Drake said….He said make them new rappers nervous prom night….a metaphor for condoms and them being broken on prom night…but also to rappers….so for prom night you buy new rappers( condoms) that are nervous because theyre about to be broken..that line is sickkk

  35. will says:

    cosign @ obiu akbar

    Man that nigga 50 had like 20-25 mixtapes out this nigga Drake had 1 good one and i dont know if it bothers yall but it bothers me when niggas not doing 18 traccs anymore like 50 hasnt gave us a album under 18 traccs Jay Has a couple of times but Jay got knows how to complete his shit not too much and not too less but on every nigga 1st try out and you got classic hype i think they should give at least 17 i mean Nas did it with like 12-13 but he didnt have the hype

  36. So Icy Boi! says:

    This beat it boring as hell and sound so simple

  37. t says:

    this is how u kill a yung gunna on his debut album, you go… “Oww…Hov turn heads like…owls/And I’m the man of the…hour/Triple entendres, don’t even ask me…how/Con Edison flow, I’m connected to a higher…power.” jeez

  38. PITRI says:

    I havent lisin yet..but this is the track ive been waitin for…lets see what they bring..

  39. chale says:

    Drake killed jay smh

  40. justin oryan says:

    whoaaaaa drizzy killed it owwwww… track of the year… simple but genius .. ima cop 2 copies of thank me later one for me and one for the haters that thats hating on my nigga…. drake>>>>> your favorite rapper

  41. James says:

    THEY BOTH DID THEIR THING, ENJOY BOTH VERSES, SHUT THE FUCK UP AND KOP THE ALBUM ON THE 15TH

    NAW I CAN’T EVEN FRONT….DRAKE’S LINE WAS REAL STRAIGHT….I GUESS THAT NIGGA JUST BORES ME TO FUCKING DEATH. IN FACT THEY BOTH CAME STALE…NOT LYRICALLY BUT AS FAR AS DELIVERY….

  51. Drizzle-Nutz says:

  55. thomas says:

    HOV killed it…. Drake is………. [Jay-Z voice]”ehhhhhhhhhh”

    but it’s cool

  56. Krypto says:

    I’ll start by saying that I’m a big Drake fan, So Far Gone is amazing, and I’m also a fan of Over, Forver, and his older mixtapes.

    But yo this song sounds exactly like the record w/ Jeezy. Same flow, boring ass beats, etc. etc.

    This album will not be a classic

  57. Interscope Employee says:

    this nigga always has the same flow.

    plus all the beats I’ve heard been average. Shoulda went with BIG PRODUCERS…instead of his homie 40 and Boy 1Da

  58. Philly says:

    ^^
    ALL ABOVE COMMENTS.

    They should remove this section, because not a damn thing that any of you say or think is worthy of reading, nor is it gonna affect Drake’s or Jay’s status/ bank accounts in any way shape or form.

    Bettter yet, more than half of you losers are viewing this shit from your Moms computer. Get to bed faggots!

  59. Hate says:

    always remember people have to reap what they say

  60. reef says:

    i already run this town, i dont do too much joggin/jargon…. Jargon is like slang words corperate people us….i think

  61. Bomber says:

    Hov killed it with that Godfather reference, it went over 99% of you niggas heads, then he dropped a triple entendre in his first bar. Dumb niggas need teachin

  62. t says:

    get to bed philly “what you tryna kick, knowledge?” lol

  63. jitty says:

    WOW WOW OMG WOWW BEST TRACK ON HISTORYYY!! LMFAO FUK OUTTA HERE…BORING…IM TELLIN YALL…YALL HYPIN UP DIS JEW TOOOOO MUCH..HE AINT GONE BAK UP THat hype up like 50CENT DID WITH GRODT!! SO STOP DA COMPARISONS! NOT EVEN CLOSE! HA! HATERS

  64. PITRI says:

    ^^ Thats true but i guess i Expected more…notice i said Dissapointed i neva said it was bad lol..I think it is the Delivery and like the sound of it…Cuz they Did come lyricaly…but i expeceted them To come Hard lyrically like wit passion and anger and shit lol cuz thats the shit im in to..

  65. Slowbot10 says:

    i have to say this is prolly the first drake track where he sings on the hook and it didnt wrk…

  66. Menace says:

    Every song ive heard off this album is perfect…..for falling asleep, same boring ass flow, stop and go rhymes are doodoo, voice sound like wayne and kanye but fucked each other, same ol lyrics ”im so great, im a legend, blah blah blah” no motherfucker you suck, face it drake stans this nigga is gonna sell double wood on his first week, FLOP.

  67. Epinz says:

    The song is nice, is shaping up to be a good album. Not “great” and it’s not “garbage” either, just a good album. And those double engenders r subpar. If u want double engenders, u need to check out clipse, old jay, mf doom and phonte of little brother. Shit, lil Wayne on his Carter 2 shit and no ceilings got some food ones. But these here r average at best.

  68. PrettyChicoWhatDeyCalledEm says:

    man… for real if i were drake id be really embarassed

    does this dude have no concept of flow? its the same on every single damn song!

    but i guess it is hard to switch your flow up when every single beat you’re on sounds exactly the same.

    this guy is just amazingly boring, corny, fake, nerdy, etc etc…

    and i dont wanna hate, i really wanna like this guy cuz it seems like he wants to be lyrical which is rare with mainstream rappers nowadays but i cant even get through this dudes shit bcuz the beat and flow is boring, his voice sounds like it has built in autotune, and worst of all… HE DOESNT SAY SHIT!

    gtfo drake wake me up on the 22nd so i can get em and the roots

  69. reef says:

    “them evil empire guys is gon get shot for playing this record” i wouldn’t be surprised if somebody did shoot them for always leaking niggas songs….lmao

  70. TML says:

    “WAS THAT DIRECTED AT MUAH, CANT BE, THEY MUST BE TALKIN’ TO THEMSELVES, HANDS FREE…..-Drake

    hov killed that shit damn

  82. mistah_zee says:

    wow drake matched up to jay on tis and im impressed with the dude! altho most of his songs sound the same = and all the hooks are singing lol. TML will be good tho, so far lyrics are on point, subject matter is kinda the same but he’s making valuable points. lots of quotable shit in his music. jay is on a whole other lvl! aggressive on this one, probably got something to do with dame and that rockefella situation.

  83. D says:

    O shit here come the Jay-Z Stans……smh sad

  84. NEWKIDONTHEBLOG says:

    These tracks are so average… C,mon son! u got a fukin JAY feature. i should hear a classic song!

  85. Wow says:

    STAN ——> Dead*
    Juss cus your a fan, dnt make you a stan, stfu

  86. reef says:

    Why does drake start his verse off by saying he’s gettin money in both ways? Like what dirty money is this nigga gettin his hands on?? then a few bars later discusses how he can’t stand these grown men storytellers…Im bout tired of him playin the victim on every song now too. Shit was cool on Fear but now it’s gettin old. plus it seems like drake forces his self to get lyrical or he try to kick knowledge…

  87. realMusic says:

    Its a fact now adays if u get a JayZ verse, u are being blessed, that is a fact
    That lets u kno wat level Jay is on

  88. mmkayy says:

    so ‘over’ & ‘light it up’ are the only songs ive heard not about a girl… love blahh blahh & according to Complex the whole album is basically about that… all the leaked tracks are great but lets be honest they are not amazin BUT

    TML >>> SFG

  89. TML says:

    @Reef
    Dude, did u hear his verse, he talks about the things to look out for in the music industry, are u deaf?

  90. JDot says:

    Crazy godfather reference by HOV..

    “drake/
    heres how they going to come at you/with silly rap feuds trying to distract you
    In disguise in the form of a favor/the barzni meet watch for traitors”

  91. luden says:

    You lieing sack of haters. Of the songs that have leaked, you know you would have liked hearing them on the album. getting the whole picture and listening to the entire album is way more different than getting half as*ed leadked songs.

    The album in it’s entirety will be very good and very POPULAR.

    You think this is worse than what’s come out so far??? T.I.’s – stupid song that just came out with Keri HIlson…is MUCH worse than anything leaked from Drake’s album. I’m only mentioning TI, because there isn’t really anyone else that’s mainstream. Also, in my opinion, this song is WAY better than Em’s “not afraid”. Em always gets a pass on the music he makes…he makes a lot of pop type rap songs.

  92. abdiesel says:

    somebody point out the godfather reference

  93. tris nigga! says:

    U nigga is stupid if think Drake killed Hov’s verse…they both went in but like always Hov gover u niggas head wit shit!

    drake approves the leak of these songs you dumb fucks. everybodies album leak like a week before its release. for promotion and advertisment and shit

  95. Nigga is fucking dumb,Jay hardly ever tries nowadays and if iw as him i wouldnt either.Nigga has been destroying tracks for more than 14 years.This track is fire,Only drake has the swag to make songs like this,Thats what makes him genuine and new.Only he can make a song singing and rapping destroying it in both categories of musical performance. So eat dick ya bitch.

  96. So Icy Boi! says:

    @ luden STFU!! ….imma Drake fan but im no dick rider ….so u sayin because the song leaked people sayin its Trash?? ….but if it would of came out on the album unheard it would of been better ??? WTF dat dnt make no sense nigga if its trash now its gonna be trash later

    Okay, so comments section…who do we think Jigga goin’ at with this? The obvious answer would be Beans but would it be reaching to say he is going at Nas?

  98. Kace Jones says:

    Really in actuality I think the expectations for Drakes album were set a lil too high…we all agree So Far Gone was a breath of fresh air….and we thought the album would surpass the mixtape…but…what we thought was shaping up to be the album everyone could vibe to.. is turning into the most average ish we’ve ever heard….More than half leaked and Im sad to say I wont be running down to Best Buy and copping the album….Ill save the trip for something more worthy…this aint it homey (smh)

    Okay, never mind. Just caught on to the Godfather ishh he spit….definitely going at Beans in on this.

    As for the track, I like it. Jay-Z kills this.

  100. scott larock says:

    i dont like the song too much at all drakes verses where weak and so was jay-z’s and yes i listened 3 times.and if your a guy and your a fan of drake your gay cause drake is a female rapper going after the female genre.drake cant freestyle and he is no lyricist with his abc raps.all of you drake fans bought into all the hype cause lil wayne co-signed the nigga.i hope drake just falls off like how 50 cent did he sold 8 million grodt then fell off after the massacre with the candy shop and disco inferno bs.jay-z fans or stans dont go after me im a huge jay-z fan but this did not cut it for me this time.jay-z likes drake and could of killed him on this like how he did to kanye on the diamonds are forever joint about walking on water.jay let drake shine on this you know that if your a jay-z fan.

  101. 106 says:

    Dope. I like this shit. Jay spit one of those verses that at first seem off but after you catch everything he saying you like damn he killed it. I fucks with Drake long as he not singing.

  102. Drizzle-Nutz says:

    Dont worry Kace, Thousands and thousands of more niggas and bitches will be copting it. Your measly 12 bucks can stay saved…

    @Tris nigga Shot at 50 Cent & Sigel to with this line:

    Drake heres how they gon come at You
    With Silly raps juss Tryna distract you
    In Disguise in a form of a Favor
    Your Brazinni me watch for the Traitors
    I had seen it all and done it all
    Thats why none of these dumb dumbs can done him off
    The Summers ours, the Winter too

    That was hot Jay Z went in!!! This is Drakes and G-Units summer though.

  104. Diaz says:

    Honestly this song was pretty nice they both did there thing but for some reason Jay-Z’s verse stood out more. Maybe cuz drake rhymed party with partyin or some shit like that.

  105. Kace Jones says:

    @Drizzle-Nutz…oh trust me I know homey…and it wont be because the album is good or not..its because they’ll run down to buy the hype….All i can say Drake struck out wit me so Eminem better bring his “A” game this time around

  106. Drizzle-Nutz says:

    Kace dont throw down the whole hand of cards yet. We all know tracks with no features is his fortay. And we havent heard half the album yet….keep an open mind homey. We all know Recovery will be a scorcher, Lets give the new blood a full shot with taking premature shots….

  107. Drizzle-Nutz says:

    no homo lol^^^

  108. JT says:

    Eh. Drake didn’t kill Jay and Jay didn’t kill Drake. The beat and hook is so meh. Song is ok, but that’s about it. I think Drake waited too long to drop. His window is getting smaller each song…IMO. He’s lyrically nice, don’t get me wrong, but he’s also lyrically predictable. Like almost every bar, I’m saying “wait for it…wait for it…[hears Drake punchline]…[on to the next bar].” Overall, Drake said about 5-7 things that people got right then and there, and Hov said about 5-7 things that people will get later.

  109. thebullfrog24 says:

    Do you guys who are saying “he has the same flow on every song??” even know what Flow means????

    You guys act like hes suppose to change his voice up to sound like mickey mouse on one track…then he suppose to sound like lloyd banks or somethin on the next lol

  110. YOUNG CHILL37 says:

    JAY VERSE WAS ON ANOTHA LEVEL NOT SUPER LYRICAL BUT EMOTIONAL HE WAS CANCELING NIGGAS CAREERS AGAIN SUBLIMINALLY
    DRAKE HELD IT DOWN HIS VERSE HAD MORE QUTOTABLES N PUNCHLINES BUT I RATHER HEAR MORE SERIOUS RELATABLE LYRICS SO I LIKE JAY VERSE MORE

    BUT THEY BOTH WENT IN DIFFERENT WAYS DRAKE DID NOT GET OUT RAPPED NOR DID HOV

  111. So Icy Boi! says:

    @Craig “This is Drakes and G-Units summer though.”

    ^
    G-Unit? starts to laugh in 5,4,3,…2,,,1, Lmao … u G-uint fans just dont give up huh?

  112. How in the hell could Jay-Z NOT write any lyrics down on this song? I betcha Drake was on page 5, looked up and was like “damn” LOL!

  113. asd says:

    A trillion-watt light bulb, when I’m in the nightclub
    I just landed in that in that G450
    Caught the Mayweather fight, ’cause the satellite was crispy
    (Uh) Y’all can miss me with that money talk
    The smart money’s on Hov, fuck what the dummies talk
    I don’t do too much blogging
    I just run the town, I don’t do too much jogging
    (Unh) I ain’t got a scar yet
    ‘Cause you fuckin’ around with me and my dogs is far-fetched
    Drake, here is how they gon’ come at you
    Will silly raps for you tryin’ to distract you
    In disguise, in the form of a favor
    The Barzini me, watch for the traitors
    (Unh) I done seen it all, done it all
    That’s why none of these dumb-dumb could dun him off
    The summer’s ours, the winter too
    Top down in the winter, that’s what winners do
    And to these niggas I’m like Windows 7
    You let ‘em tell it, they swear that they invented you
    And since no good deed go unpunished
    I’m not as cool with niggas as I once was
    I once was, cool as the Fonz was
    But these bright lights turned me to a monster
    Sorry, mama, I promised it wouldn’t change me
    But I would’ve went insane had I remained the same me

  122. assasin9 says:

    lol @ cats acting like they kno what a double entendre never mind a triple entendre means — Hov got yall on that Wiki — lmao.

    This track is ill, ended mad abrupt for me though, wish they both had another verse…

    Hov kills everything he is on.

  123. mike dizzle says:

    wow

    CLASSIC SHIT. bout to be so much hate. Just jealousy, nothin else. This + 9 AM in Dallas Freestyle = do right & KILL EVERYTHING.

    Can’t wait for TML, jeeeeeeeeeeezus. hold it down, aubrey

    Niggaz is crazy if they think Drake’s verse was better than Hov’s.

    Even when the lyrics are dumbed down Jay is still ova niggaz heads with his verses.

  128. K.o.D says:

    JAY-Z’S VERSE > THANK ME LATER

    HATE ME NOW!

  129. hey says:

    HOV killed DRAKE on his own shyt

    Next Victims:
    Rick Ross
    Diddiy

    (as far as colobos)

  130. ye says:

    This shyt happens EVERYTIME we hear a verse from JAY

    at first everyones says its wack and how jay fell off

    DEN..after they ACTUALLY listen to what hes saying and find all the hidden shyt they appreciate greatness..

    YOUNG!

  131. RapMusic23 says:

    I gotta say,im pretty dissapointed.Didnt Drake say this was Jay z`s best verse ever? Anyway drake use the same flow always and the chorus was lame.6 outta 10

  132. PrettyChicoWhatDeyCalledEm says:

    I’m kinda embarassed to ask since everyone seems to get it, but I gotta plead ignorance on this, someone explain the triple entendre line. Ik what it is I just don’t get the owls and hoes connection?

  133. Joshua says:

    Owls can turn there heads upside down,when a woman walks bye you will turn your head to look at them. I’m like Windows 7 is the best line

  134. killakev says:

    Drake was good bt Jay-z Spazzed on it

  135. ye says:

    A double entendre is A word or phrase having a double meaning

    example: jay said OWLS and HOUR…when you say these words they sounds almost identical but yet they totally have different meanings.

    Hov saiid Triple Enterndre cz hes said : Owww, Owl, and Hour

  136. assasin9 says:

    ^^ don’t make it so simple – cause everyone gunna think they can do what he does…

    owls and hour — an hour is a complete turn – 360 — 360 degrees, what people think and owl turns his head – when it is more between 135 and 270 — that’s why he said “ow!” not “hour” as being in pain when hoes turn they head….

    so it was more like a quadrouple not a triple.

  137. Mac Diesel says:

    SHIT WAS WACK!

    Don’t hate on my opinion!!!

    I LOVE GIVING HEAD TO ALL GENDERS

  138. wikkity says:

    Wait who the fuck was actually nervous on Prom Night?I mean c’mon seriously?Drake’s trash..enjoyed Hov’s verse,surprised he came with it

  139. darrius says:

    Fuvk niggas bitches too all i got is this money. damn HOVA went in on drake shit

  140. K.o.D says:

    THE PRODUCTION IS EXTREMLY GOOD, AND JAY-Z’S VERSE IS FUCKING ENJOYABLE, BUT DRAKE HAS NO FUTURE IN HIP-HOP… HE SHOULD STOP! NO POWER! NO TALENT! DRAKE AIN’T HIP-HOP! INDEED MAKE AN R&B ALBUM FOR YOUNG LADIES! IF YOU WANT MONEY…

    HATE ME NOW!

  141. money l says:

    hov fucking killed this shit

  142. Crix says:

    all u blogger miss that hov took shots at 50 cent. and the lyrics is off real talk ny

    correction

    Jay-z
    “I just landed in that in that G4,
    50 Caught the Mayweather fight, ’cause his satellite was crispy”

    meaning how he burnt the house down.

  143. assasin9 says:

    ^ i caught that – didn’t think he was takin a shot at him though, more luring him in — he said 50 caught the fight, not that he missed the fight

  144. Crix says:

    ^^^thats jay-z stupid subliminal ways

  145. OH MAN says:

    Yeah Jay took em to class on this one.

  146. Justin Poindexter says:

    Drake=Sucky Rapper
    Drake=R&B Singer

  147. OH MAN says:

    oh yeah for those who say that Jay got killed on this track have to remember that the guest artist dont get the last say on the track. So the orignal artist can go back in and redo their verse. Dont believe half of what you hear.

  148. Shady-Aftermath says:

    it should be JAY-Z f/ drake

  149. Whowantwhat says:

    Jay’s verse is better than Drake’s verse period…smh at niggas thinking otherwise. I don’t know what lyrics some cats be hearing?

  150. meThATSwho says:

    that was hot… might have to cop that Drizzy

  151. K.o.D says:

    DRAKE’S MUSIC IS AS POOR AS 50 CENT’S NEW BODY…

    HATE ME NOW!

  152. Midnite! says:

    Always a Jay-Z hater in here!No,Drake did not kill hov!Stop smoking that pipe!!The track was ok,nothing special until hova gets on….Truth!!

  153. DrakesMyFav says:

    But… you and i both know this track is below average like most of the album so far. Damn Drake!

  154. Nipsyfire says:

    @ every hater just enjoy the fucking music! damn u got people bringing 50,TI,Eminem in this shit man we got a nice track with aa nice real meaning for once from drake! jay killed be grateful STOP HATIN..people poppin off sayin ‘not afraid’ bad it’s pop and shit at least it no ‘we made you’ bullshit Be GRATEFUL WE GOT HIP HOP

  155. Money mitch says:

    Well come June 22 well all know and than can fight about that

  156. Rap school says:

    drake=Made in lil gayne= Disney rapper !

  157. OOPH says:

    I’m still waiting for Drake to switch up his flow. I keep hearing how talented he is, but all I hear is a redundant rhyme scheme that gets old quick.

    Anyway, Jay-Z saved the track.

  158. Juggers says:

    Not listening! Waiting till
    June 15 in this bitch wasssup’

  159. letthehatershate says:

    sick track, still waiting to purchase my 2 copies on the 15th

  160. ST says:

    Naw, I give it to Jay on that one. dude was spitting flames. drake maybe needs to sing in a different octave or something because his singing, hooks sound exactly the same

  161. I might have to listen again but at first listen I think Drake got Jay on this one. I like both tho #ImJustSaying

  162. Okay its a tie.That Windows Seven line was slick

  163. The Truth83 says:

    wow…. just wow..

    hova murdered this shit.

    drake this his thing, only good parts were the star spangle banner and the part he talked about i wrote it for your g/f’s

    other than that it was meh, it was just talkin..

    but damn hov…

    “OWWW
    hov turn heads like OWLS
    im the man of HOUR *made it sound like owls*

    Triple entundra *look up that word if you dont know it*

    then

    i dont do touch much bloggin
    i RUN THE TOWN *the actual song from bp3 and a set up for the joggin
    i dont do too much joggin

  164. The Truth83 says:

    meant entendre*

    XD

  165. teejay says:

    Once again, not bad. Both did their thing. But for the man who claims to have the amount of hype 50 had in ’03, not bad isn’t good enough.

    I think what contributes to his flows all sounding the same is that the beats are all more or less the same. Granted its not like he has a Dr. Dre in his corner like 50 did. When he gets the right beat he’ll shine, I don’t think he’s found it yet.

  166. Oj Da Cornball says:

    He’s gonna sell lots of records, but please don’t call this album classic ever. EVER!

    but average songs.

  167. LAMARKBEATS says:

    This song Is fiyah damn they both went In jay spit a lil harder cop tha album when It drops.

  168. The Truth83 says:

    @teejay

    nah dont really think its the beats fault.

    i dont think hes developed enough to switch up the flow to make the beat more interesting.

    lyrics on here for drake was a cool 7.

    he had no entendre thats for sure.

    his voice seems to be a octave high in his voice to me personally, i can only listen to him for a short bit before it feels like someone is scratching a nail on a chalk board.

  169. rhymeculture says:

    wow how much is microsoft payin jay-z, most shameless product placement in a rhyme ever!

  170. biggar says:

    Jays verse is the verse of the year so far.

    Em, nas, nobody has had a verse like that yet. They need to step their games up after that one.

  171. R les says:

    drake’s verse >>>>>>>jay’z
    m jus saying …if u dont think so ,go back and listen

  172. The Truth83 says:

    too funny, i wonder how many people googled half the stuff jay just said.

    entendre
    con edison
    barzini
    fonzie a.k.a the fonz

  173. Pretty Tony says:

    Drake>JAys verse. I’m sorry I had to do it to em. But Jay will be the one to make this song a classic on the long run. bet me on that!

  174. JERZZZ says:

    Hahaha You niggas cosignin this shit need to be shot. This is hot fuckin garbage lol. Drake sucks, Its hilarious how many lil niggas love wheel chair jimmy, Hip Hop’s full of faggots and niggas with feminen traits.

  175. YYY says:

    favorite Drake Ive heard in a while, tight verse… And Hov went in… dope song.

  176. damone says:

    Jay went in on that hard. Anybody say something else is a hater but jay has many of those ya dig. Drake was cool but wayyyyy out his league on thid one. This is your first cd nas, jay, and pac never called them self the greatest on ever song plus you aint even drop a cd yet.

  177. The Truth83 says:

    @r les

    i listened and i disagree.

    “i get money both ways dirty and clean” -waaaaah
    then later went on about grown men tales? -waaah

  178. Pretty Tony says:

    SMH head @ every hater out there. FInally a song by Aubrey that can be considered a classic and niggas still hate. THis just proves my theory. A hater and a HOMO are the same. THey can never change who they are….

  179. RUS says:

    JAY KILT THAT NIGGA…DRAKE JUST TOO PLAIN MAN. HIS SIMPLISTIC RHYMES AND PREDICTABLE “FLOW” IS EXPECTED. THE BEATS KEEPIN HIM RELEVANT

  180. yy says:

    @ SO Icy Boi…How in the fuck you gonn say drake killed jay on this? i havent been fuckin wit jay since the roc fell apart but he definitly brought it back to the blueprint I & II no doubt

  181. sweet L says:

    Sounded like jay mailed it in.. drizzy sounds exactly the same as every other mediocre track he done, same flow.. after a few spins I like it more, but with all these leaks soundin like buttcheeks its pretty clear this lp has no sign of classic material. Dudes still gonna put some number up tho

  182. blaqscorpio says:

    JAY SAID MORE IN LESS WORDS! GTFOH!!!! HE KILLED THIS ISH!!

    I Mean “do y’all listen to music or do y’all just skim thru it?”

  183. blaqscorpio says:

    ANYBODY say that Drake killed Jay on this is is CLEARLY LETTING THEIR DISLIKE/HATE FOR JAY CLOUD THEIR JUDGMENT!

  184. Bl says:

    Another Slow Jam!! Come on! .. Give us a banger..

  185. gerold says:

    Drake ripped Jay something serious….

    Drizzy..

  186. pointgodkg says:

    PPLZ SAYIN JAY GOT KILLED HERE IS PLAIN CRAZY
    oowww, Hov’s turnin’ heads like,
    oowwwlls, i’m the man of the,
    hour. triple entendre don’t even ask me how.
    summers ours and the winter too, top down in the winter that’s what winners do
    Con Edison flow, i’m connected to a higher power

  187. The Truth83 says:

    @pointgodkg

    indeed point, hov got people googlin his shit.

    Especially with “con edison” if you dont live in ny you may not know what that is.

  188. champ says:

    is it me or all drake’s tracks sound all the same? i mean the beat is just typical for drake..but anw, i do expect more from them both

  189. aTk says:

    Evil Empire drops>>>>>>>Drake’s and Jay’s verse

    wow that song was shit

  190. Word's Bro says:

    This is great and all and so r the other tracks but they are just average tracks, all the tracks from TML get a 7/10 4 effort on my part. if he wuda said he was makin an album that was 80% R&B maybe ppl wudnt dislike or question the material, his raps just make features on the album

    *switches to So FAR Gone

    now SFG on the other hand average 9.5/10 and uptown is a 10/10.

  191. mitch says:

    @cli-city

    …homie, you’re reachin WAY TOO FAR with that sh*t. lmao, im actually laughing out loud at the fact you took it there. gotta be the MOST ridiculous analysis i’ve ever heard. LOL, broken condom wrappers?!?!

  192. Word's Bro says:

    if who killed who has 2b debated clearly Drake has an upper hand becuz the GOAT is spose to always kill shit..
    i think Drizzy’s verse and delivery is a lil better than Jay’s

  193. So... says:

    Anyone willing to break down the Jay-Z verse and explain it

  194. Fredro says:

    niggas always talking about same flow shit……you niggas need a hobby….jay has the same monotone in every thing he spits hell most rappers do….why hate? cuz your favorite underground rapper not getting pushed? email them cats and tell em to get in a better situation

  195. fuckyall says:

    criticize something you are called a hater….be a fan of something you are called a stan

    people are funny

    @So…
    cause im bored at work. This was posted by asd in the previous page.

    [Owww, hoes turn they heads like, owls

    Entendre = a word or expression capable of two interpretations

    [Con Edison flow, I’m connected to a higher power
    Bright life’d make your whole city light up
    A trillion-watt light bulb, when I’m in the nightclub]

    Con edison is a power company in NY which ties into him being connected to a higher power and goes with his name of “hova” double meaning to whatever you want it to mean. As that connects to the next line of bright life and all that electricity talk “light bulbs, bright life, etc.

    [I just landed in that in that G450
    Caught the Mayweather fight, ’cause the satellite was crispy
    (Uh) Y’all can miss me
    With that money talk
    The smart money’s on Hov, fuck what the dummies talk]

    Just money/ballin talk saying he couldve watched the fight at home but the satellite was acting up so he took the plane, to watch it live.

    [I don’t do too much blogging
    I just run the town, I don’t do too much jogging]
    run the town = bp3 song
    while also meaning running hence the line i dont do too much joggin. which with his accent he could have said “jargon” which would go with the blogging reference

    [(Unh) I ain’t got a scar yet
    ‘Cause you fuckin’ around with me and my dogs is far-fetched]

    Throw away line, just meaning aint nobody fuckn with him as in not being touch hence “i aint got no scar”

    [Drake, here is how they gon’ come at you
    Will silly raps for you tryin’ to distract you
    In disguise, in the form of a favor

    Could be a line towards beanie Sigel
    While also saying, if he responds directly all he would be doing is doing beanie a favor
    As barzini is a “Godfather” reference who is a character who broker a deal between the don and some other guy, to gain some power for himself while acting as if he was helping

    [(Unh) I done seen it all, done it all

    the rest is pretty much explained in the words no double meanings

  197. Reasy F. says:

    As usual, I see the usual love/hate comments.

    That Jay-Z window 7 line is ill…

  198. So Icey Boi, fuk these haters..you might say it the right away, but this album isn’t gonna be all that great…….If your an R&B fan, damn it might be one of the best of the year tho…..yea, the boy “Drizzy” or whatever he calls himself these days is putting together a nice RnB album, what happened to all the punchlines? and the slick lyrics? now he just sounds like everyone else….

    Aw well, go out & support the R&B album of the summer.

  199. you *MIGHT NOT OF said it the right way, I meant to say.

  200. fuckyall says:

    people are to dumb to understand jayz…they just hear words….if you take time to dissect what he says, you will crown him GOAT

  201. Drake says:

    T.I. schätzt, „Drake wird 500.000 verkaufen!“…

    Foto: Last.fm Das sind die Worte von US-Rapper T.I. Als er in der Angie Martinez Show auf Hot 97 gefragt wurde, was er zu den Verkaufszahlen der 1. Woche von Drakes Album denkt, schoss es blitzschnell raus: „über 500.000″. Ich bin zuversich…

  202. fuckyall says:

    someone explain the windows 7 line

  203. Martin says:

    The track is dope. Drizzy back on some So Far Gone shit! Personally, (so far) some of the best Ive heard from TML.

  204. Tutor says:

    I didn’t understand how anybody could say that Drake’s verse was better until I saw the dude above asking for someone to explain the windows 7 line…

  205. II says:

    Drake getting upstaged once again on his own track. Hov murked the track and ran circles around Drake’s ABC punchlines, bot nonetheless the best track I’ve heard from TML. At the rate this album is leaking, he’ll be lucky to do 300k first week

  206. MrWhite340 says:

    this is awful, jay did horrible, drake is boring… same ole shit

  207. bonbon says:

    gtfowtb ==== whoever says drake verse > jay verse is deep on that sizzzurrrr

    Amazing track, been on repeat since it dropped.

  211. biggar says:

    I like Drake but Hov murdered the whole game with that verse.

    Just wait a couple months for people to catch up

  212. John says:

    And for those saying Drake sounds the same, same flow etc of course he fucking does he cant suddenly change over night. If your going to complain about that complain about NAS, or some of the other great soing the exact same thing, dont put a newcomer like Drake on a higher pedestal than them. Its mostly haters doing it to, essentially your saying you higher expections of Drake than Nas, shit is crazy.

    @ fuckyall……GO to you tube and watcha few windows 7 commercials. the runnung gag is that a regualr user brags about how they invented windows 7..even thought they didnt…they are just saying that to flex their braggadocio…never the less…I think dudes really have to listen to jays verse lilke 3-4 times to catch what he is sayin…hov is nice……he Kinda brought out that freeway rhyme scheme for a line too( AB C BD AC)

    South still winning..but jay is that dude

  219. lup says:

    here we go again. dude saying nigga and making lines about being shot. get the fuck outta here son.

    when the fuck has his child tv star ass ever had to use nigga in his life before acting as a rapper? this shit is just unreal. and some bars about shells and maybe getting shot? get the fuck outta here aubrey!

    keep it real. jesus fuck.

    @The Truth83:

    you on point about “con edison”!!!!

    kool g rap said in “the symphony” back in ’88 “cause i put out more lights in a fight than con edison”. man, do you know how many years it took me to figure out what “con edison” what? at least 10 and the internet!!! new york rappers stayed talkin bout stuff that only new yorkers (or possibly visitors) knew about. so i imagine i would literally still be in the dark not w/o knowing what con edison is, were it not for the net.!!!!

  224. james says:

    when niggas say that drake flow sounds the same i dont think they mean he should rap different (as in he should change his voice or rhyme scheme) i think they mean that he always has this same average ass flow n lyrics and he needa step it up and i agree. but Jay-Z straight murdered this shit

  225. The Truth83 says:

    @killakev

    entendre means something that sound like something but means something else.

    Ex. Oooow = noise made when hurt, excited, or w/e *sounds like owl
    Owl = bird
    hour = sounds like owl.

    so in turn hov said 3 things that sound the same but mean something else based on context.

    Triple entendre

  226. yaboitone says:

    wow.
    i officially give up on blogging. im dead ass serious. i may comment every now and then, but it has OFFICIALLY become obvious that MOST people here are too stupid to converse with. And by most people i mean all of you simple minded Dr. Seuss reading morons who said Drake killed Jay?
    wow. lol. simply wow.

    Also more evidence explaining why people who don’t know why jay is hands down the greatest…..he simply goes over there heads.

    ignorance is bliss.

  227. yaboitone says:

    p.s.
    most songs so far aren’t bad, but they aren’t making me wanna spend the money either……guess ill take the time to snatch it off the net because of this ONE song so far. lol. “Over” grew on me and then grew off pretty damn quickly.

  228. yaboitone says:

    Drake is nice. dont get it twisted. Top 10 percentile of those who do it. Just not the Almighty Music Messiah he has been built up to be.

  229. "SOMEONE EXPLAIN THE WINDOWS 7 LINE" says:

    Have you seen the dozen or so Windows 7 commercials, where different people from around the world are explaining how THEY created windows 7? just google windows 7 commercials if not i guess, but they are on like every 10 minutes. kinda hard to miss.

    its that simple though . Lotta people like to believe they are the reason jay is who is he or why he has gotten to where he is at. “let em tell it they swear, that they invented you.” It’s probably also safe to assume that its aimed specifically at people like Dame and Siegel.

  230. maniidakid says:

  232. Whatever says:

    Booooooring.

  233. G says:

    This track is average at best. same flow from Drake and Jay’s flow sounded lazy. average at best.

  234. G says:

    @chitlin coon

    Oh wow that line was so complex..it caught me off guard so much. I can see where studying Nas and Andre three stacks paid off with his rhymes.

  235. Lu says:

    To be honest…this was the only song i was waiting for on the whole album….I am now concerned…It didnt deliver..I thought it would be a punchline fest

  239. the one says:

    It was good …. I Probably set the bar to high ….Still a dope track.

  240. illaDeuce says:

    i dont understand why you think drake killed Hov. i completely disagree. Almost every line Hov dropped was a subtle punch, and his flow was proper. Drizzys verse was so BLEHH same flow he always uses. His punches weren’t even that nice.

  241. Mars Blackmon says:

    Drake got bodied. This album is going to be a HUGE disappointment.

  242. reef says:

    People be always think jay is dissin rappers wit subliminal lines… he dont say anything about 50cent he say he on his G450 (Private jet) watching the fight… And ya still not catching the double entendre he says on “i Run this town. i dont do too much joggin” He really says ” I Run this town i dont do too much JARGON”

    Jargon basically mean Talkin

    so he saying He run the town and he dont do too much talkin like braggin or wateva

    ummmmmm it was iightt

    The best line in HOV verse may be this one:

    i dont do touch much bloggin
    i RUN THE TOWN
    i dont do too much joggin <<<<<< NO NOT JOGGING BUT JARGON (in relation too blogging)….its crazy how HOV play with words!!!

  254. illaDeuce says:

    hov had so many subtle slick references that hit hard once you actually pick it up. Drake came with the simplest shit, and the same flow hes been using ever since nickelus F stopped telling him how to flow.

    _________________WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?_________________

    I really wish I could meet the type of faggots that like Drake. And by that I mean me being able to put them all in a huge stadium just to see how all his fans dress, talk, and act. I bet I wouldn’t be surprised.

    PLEASE, for the love of fuck, tell me what you fans see in this guy. I don’t say rapper, because he brings the SAME-FUCKING-FLOW, SAME-FUCKING-STYLE, and SAME-FUCKING-TONE in EVERY-FUCKING-SONG. His “style” is comprised of a string of punchlines that lack substance and verses that end up being hollow. He makes up imaginary “haters” and pretends he is receiving hate from all sorts of people who he never mentions (because they don’t exist).

    Let’s put it this way, if this guy sells 250k, I’ll be DAMN surprised. If he is still around in two years, I’ll be even more surprised.

    People say he has all this hype right now, and he does, but that’s only because people think he has more to give than what he’s already given. Dude has nothing else, he’s a one dimensional artist.

    HE SUCKS REAL TALK.

    JAY Z EMINEM KANYE > DRAKE

  267. Mikey Haze says:

    @drake S’s D

    Shut the fuck up you hating ass fagot. I like to put a group of hatin ass faggots like you in a stadium and blow it up!

    Drake substance you just to ignorant to see it He speaks on real life that poor niggas like you should actually be able to relate to. Women is his main topic and unless your a fag should appeal to you. Fuck outta here bitch

  268. nushay says:

    jay’s verse is amazingly smart..drakes verse was ok..but honestly the song is booring

  269. okdoagg says:

    Why would you even listen to Drake, and worse..comment a 10000 times, if you already think he’s a gay ass r&b singer who you don’t like..then dont fucking listen lol!

    And why always the comparing? This is Drake’s first album coming up..Jay/Em/Nas have a BIT more releases aint it? So y’all can’t compare..

    I can’t recall any debut album being both hated and anticipated this much at the same time (by diff people ofc) so he’s doing something right, isnt he? I guess he’s going to sell a shitload of album even tho 3/4 of his album leaked..since all those 12-15 y old girls who liked “Best I Ever Had”, “Find Your Love” cant find their way to all these kind of sites..so they dont know any of these songs. Is nothing wrong with appealing to that kind of people..shit, it sells..

    And besides that there enuf people buying this album anyway just to support him, like me

  270. […] collaborations and more. At about the 4:12 mark, Drizzy reveals that Lil Wayne spit a verse for “Light Up” over the phone from Rikers and says it’s one of the most incredible Weezy verses he’s […]

  271. illaDeuce says:

    you motherfuckers want people to yell on tracks for it to be a nice verse. Jay’s flow fits his image, he doesnt scream or get angry, he’s chill and smooth just like his image. BUT EVERY LINE HOV DROPPED WAS FUCKING CRAZY! If you think drizzys verse was better its because you need simplistic lines with straightforward metaphors and references. Jays metaphors and references take a little bit of knowlege.

  272. illaDeuce says:

    like if you like uptempo shit, go listen to high energy uptempo shit. Drake’s direction for this album is slow and smooth, so why would you waste your time thinking drake is gonna make some high energy bangers like 50.. used to.
