While on the Florida Legislative House floor, Rep. Alan B. Williams (D) erroneously referenced a lyric from Jay-Z’s “99 Problems”. Representative, Dean Cannon (R) fired back and corrected Williams, with the proper rhyme. Yep, it’s politics as usual.

[vodpod id=Video.16119318&w=540&h=350&fv=] Biggie may be up in the Heavens, but during Hov’s concert at Carnegie Hall a few weeks back, he took to the balcony and paid homage to the Brooklyn Don with “Juicy”. This is all good. Better late than never, YN.

The show continues on.

[vodpod id=Video.16104576&w=540&h=350&fv=] With his successful collaboration effort with Kanye, countless business ventures and sold-out concerts, one half of the Throne takes the numero six spot on MTV‘s Hottest MCs. YN demands a recount. “If you talk about the Throne, yeah, top five, no question. But Jay himself? From January to August, what was going on?” asked Rahman Dukes, MTV News’ director of hip-hop news, pointing out Jigga’s inactivity apart from WTT. “Kanye was moving.” Previously: #10 Wale l #9 Wiz […]

Fall back, Paps. Nearly a month after Jay-Z and Beyonce gave birth to their daughter Blue, the proud parents released the first photos of their baby girl. Check out more pics after the jump. Sweet! lifeandtimes | helloblue

You gotta love, B-Side Hov. When Jay made his way to the balcony in Carnegie Hall on Monday, he performed 10 seconds of “So Ghetto” before diving into a medley. Should’ve left the durag on. dynamics

Hov and his celebrity friends celebrated the grand re-opening last night of the 40/40 Sports Bar in NYC. Even Warren Buffett stopped by. Weren’t on the guest list? Well, check out some pics after the jump.

Folks of all races skated to one song and this one song only. Over Hit-Boy’s heavy drums and electrifying bridge, Jay and Ye displayed their balling antics on tilt that made even the poorest man wanna dig in his pocket to cop a bottle of bubbly. The Will Ferrell Blades Of Glory-sample during the break was actually quite fitting since we needed a time out from all the kinetic energy. Thankfully the bars were as strong as the bounce. From […]

Before the album even dropped, this song was a movement by itself. Son! Do you remember how this pass-the-mic, soul sample-packed lyrical exchange shook the rap game up? Over Otis Redding’s “Tenderness,” this nigga Kanye told YMCMB to “tuck their whole summer in.” Crazy! Hov’s callin the paps on himself? This shit still give me chills. Run it back! Maybe Flex likes this shit more than me. But not by a lot. Ha!
