Gwyneth Paltrow & Jay-Z Trade Intvws.
Jay-Z and actress Gwyneth Paltrow traded interviews today on their respective websites. For Life And Times, Hov asks Gwyn about her musical taste.
SC: Personally I was very surprised at your extensive knowledge of hip-hop songs. Particularly how you can sing ’90s hip-hip songs word for word. I can’t even do that! How does a girl from Spence discover hip-hop?
GP: I first was exposed to hip-hop when I was about 16 (1988) by some boys who went to collegiate. The Beastie Boys were sort of the way in for us preppie kids. We were into Public Enemy, Run-DMC and LL Cool J. But then I went to LA the summer between my junior and senior year of high school and I discovered N.W.A which became my obsession. I was fascinated by lyrics as rythym and how Dre had a such different cadence and perspective from say, Eazy-E, who I thought was one of the most ironic and brilliant voices hip-hop has ever had. It was an accident that I learned every word of Straight Outta Compton and to love something that a.) I had no real understanding of in terms of the culture that it was emanating from and b.) to love something that my parents literally could not grasp. But I was hooked. I can’t remember what I ate for dinner last night but I could sing to you every single word of N.W.A’s “Fuck Tha Police” or [Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock’s] “It Takes Two.” Go figure.
As for her site, Goop , she asks Hov five questions including his musical inspirations.
As someone who has walked through museums with you, eaten with you, heard music with you, I know firsthand how creativity in all areas lifts your consciousness. Do you feel that as a cultural figure of importance it is part of your responsibility to share what inspires you?
I think it’s every human’s job to inspire others, to feed one another’s senses. Inspiration begets inspiration times infinity. Imagine if the person that was inspired to create the phonograph didn’t share it with the world.

Aw. This is so cute.
Yeah right. I always have a hard time believing these crackers when it comes to shit like this. They only mention the obvious artists n hits, only the shit EVERYBODY knows about. Go back to your hickville country shit Gwenthy.
“Crackers?”…Belize broaden your horizon homie.
1 – she ugly as fuck.
2 – her movie career is dead.
3 – the only reason her music career is even half relevant is because of a teeny bopper show that will be laughed at in 10 years time
4- she called her child ‘apple’….’nuff said
5- coldplay are overrated as shit. ain’t got shit on radiohead and other british rock groups.
