kool scenes…Jay got something with this album..the energy is right…the lyrics are good but the delivery for a 43yr old is incridible…no other aged rapper still has that new flow..half the youngings dont either… Just let me be great
so word is he was playing this song for six hours or still is…?
Jay a smart dude got the world viewing him doin a video,shows how much people look into a album when your a multi-Millionaire. http://www.reverbnation.com/phillycashcutta and twitter @letphillybang check me out.

Lmfao at the old lady with the leg cast on riding the bike lmmfao

Does this nigga know basquiat was a bi sexual sex worked slash herioin addict whom had homosexual affairs with Warhol?
Which doesn’t mean shit but jay z only lik few yrs younger than basquiat, nigga was already selling coke when basquists relevancy died, so why now hovi?????
Your late on that shit, no avant garde.
he’s dressed like a fuck boy.
i hear roc nation looking into these cats as the next addition
video looks dope
The video will be based on performance artist Marina Abramovic’s exhibition at the MOMA where she sat silently and spectators took turns sitting in front of her. I think she totaled over 700 hours. about That is her in the black going head to head with Jay…. Video willed be dope.
@Gambino
he dressed like a fuck boy ay? While you sitting at your house probably wearing a throwback jersey, that man dressed like a “fuck boy” got millions, how much you got bitch nigga?
OH What a feeling lollll

man oh man when an artist gets slandered for things outside of his music and his dick riders come out the cut that is the most annoying shit @ohWORD get his dick out your mouth and just enjoy the music, people gon slander all day, but the pointless dick riding must cease he ain’t worried bout neither one of you
Name ONE RAPPER that could sit there in spit at an ART MUSEUM with nothing but art fans and white people around and still BE SO SECURE with himself… and doesnt need to have a bunch of his “niggas” around tryin to look tough.. Yo I thought it was just a little sayin to promote the album but fuck #NewRules is right..
im pre-embarrased for any of the niggas that are gonna even try to do some shit like this..
^he’s performing kiddo calm down,,,thats what he gets paid to do…stop reaching.
shut up IM730
Marina Abramovic, that is fucking incredible. This video will be very interesting/dope. Hov!
Fuck it, if y’all won’t say it, I’ll say it… JAY, YOU’RE NOT KANYE!!! When did this nigga EVER really truly like art? Like, seriously… Put a Basquiat painting in his face during his Blueprint days, the nigga would have slapped you silly and told you to get that shit out his face. He’s too hood for that… Fuck out of here Jay.
@ charlamagne the lord ……………….. tell them how u feel bruh ……………
[…] Behind The Scenes: Jay-Z “Picasso Baby” […]
haha yall the type of niggas that get uncomfortable being surrounded by white people.. cause yall not secure with yourselves.. No shit he;s performing.. I said name a rapper that wouldnt need all his people there. dummies.. Niggas always wanna speak but aint sayin nothin…
@IM730
You’ve tried & failed to make an interesting point TWICE.
*Shouts in Jay’s Imaginary Player voice*
‘DICKRIDERS!’
marina abramovic
That’s who Jay was dancing (?) with at 1:28 – 1:41 with
AND
who JAY LIFTED THIS IDEA FROM
I’m sure a lot of you finally figured this out after reading it somewhere from someone who knew this form the jump. Or follow my Twitter.
I knew who JAY Z was wishing he could be , no biggie
Get it?
No biggie
oh yea, fuck a @b dot
@p0is0nedkoola on twitter
Jay Z, the man who became king by stealing everything from everyone
I covered Holy Grail. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aYxz9SFR0o
looks interesting!
jay z cant do no wrong
great artist
great album
great music
great presentation
good stuff
this is inspiring to find the best that u can offer to this world
now im inspired to do something dope
^^^^^
Finally…. Someone who gets it….. It’s meant to inspire….. Fucktards would rather hate all day…..
I didn’t expect for this to be a single.Seems like more of a street single.Tom Ford seems like a killer single.Ppl gravitated to it naturally.It’s been trending for days.The Justin joint or a few could have been better singles IMO, but what do I know?
Loch J Cole @jcolenc Ft. TLC Crooked Smile Freestyle: http://youtu.be/YvFJjY0asSQ
So what if Jay didnt appreciate art back in the day? At one point he wasnt making music either and then he CHANGED. Then he went from music to business. U want his old shit buy his old albums
Hater logic <
I Love the re-invention of Jay. Always re-inventing himself !
And it’s always interesting… The fact that he did all those interviews and now dropping behind the scenes when you know he don’t have too…is so good for hip hop.
It’s as if he’s switched up the rules. but still stays grounded by giving us BTS looks and interviews and commercials.
This should be very good. Dope track.
and TOM FORD could be a single too, its that new dirt off ur shoulders, its his swag record.
ONLY IN AMERICA is the best record tho/
2 BLACK THUMBS UP. #MCHG
CAN WE ALL AGREE, HIP HOP IS BACK FOR 2013….ya.
JAY-Z TRIBUTE
“gotta bop like this/ can’t wear skinny jeans cus my knots don’t fit…”
