Last month, rumors surfaced that Lil’ Kim joined Jay-Z’s Roc Nation. During her interview this morning on Power 105.1, Kim skirted questions about rollin’ with the R-O-C.
Word is Jay-Z wants to rumble with the Bee. Allegedly, Lil’ Kim has signed to Hov’s Roc Nation and is set to executive produce her next album. We did it again, Brooklyn?
Wale, in this track, shows once again his ability to blend different genres. He doesn't limit himself to hip-hop, but enriches it with R&B nuances, creating a familiar sound. This fusion is not only an exercise in style, but serves to intensify the emotional impact of the song. And then there is his ability to rap. Wale is a master at playing with words, creating complex rhymes and modulating his voice to best express his emotions. In 'Blanco', his rap part is an explosion of words that intertwine with the melody, creating a hypnotic and relaxing effect. His ability to go from moments of pure energy to moments of deep introspection is what makes this track so engaging; it reminds me of when you would slow dance, hugging your woman.
