MySpace Today meets Jay Z Part 1



You know what they say about artist being their own toughest critic.


Alright I've said my piece, now cut me up if you want, I really ain't scared.
And with a tip of my hat, I fade into the back...

Let Me Clear My Throat.

For all y'all out there who still listen to the radio and watch Much Music or MTV for the fifteen minutes a day they are actually playing music, you'll have heard the new Jay-Z single, Run this town.
Now on the real, I first found and heard this track near the beginning of let's say July. And decided to hold off on saying a whole lot about it until I was sure just about everyone had heard it. Now that they have, I really have to say that the song isn't all that good.

Now initially it comes off as cool. However, for the intention had for the song and the initial imagery portrayed in my head. The message they said was behind it... it's just not showing up for me.
Now I love Jay and for that matter Yeezy and Rihanna, but the lack lustre performance was seen across the board. I really don't see Jay pick it up until the second verse and even that is only okay to me. I just see as a bunch of posturing to look like you are the thing to rally behind when the world falls apart.

In case you didn't notice Jigga, you kind of already Run things, so when the world falls apart and people turn to find a new fresh leader, it won't really be you.

Now I know that I can be a tough critic, but I give you the truth, from time to time I want to listen to something that's gonna enrich me, make me better, teach me something.

And that VIDEO!!! Ugghh!!! Initially looked Cool, but again, bored shortly after. The grungy, run down distopian apocalypse where mankind is rebelling forced to remake the world has been down too many times and too frequently now, Why do you think Terminator Salvation seemed boring to a bunch of people (apart from the fact the story was a bit on the lame side). I had a friend who I watched the premiere of the video with after only listening to the song for the first time only five minutes earlier. Yeah, she wasn't impressed by it and in fact it made her like the song less. All in all, it wasn't a good look.

My First Song

The track I puttin in your laps today for my very first song posting that i intended to post on Friday, but got too busy.The newly dropped tracks by Jay-Z. I've been told by multiple parties different stories, that this track will be on The Blueprint 3 and others saying that it is a track that didn't make the cut, but another one of those unreleased tracks artists have that didn't make the cut and help give them some promotion for the upcoming album. Regardless it's just more fine work from Mr. Mosely (Timbaland), droppin a beat that you can't help but bounce to wherever your at.

I gotta say though, like a lot of recent tracks I've been hearing from Jay-Z, they're good, but not Fire to me. Something which is expected from this Vetran. I mean most club tracks really don't say much of anything, they are just there to fill dead air while tha beat gets you movin. But I really like clever and witty tracks, I don't know it's just me. The only part of the song I remember and just about everyone else will, is "Now everybody raise a shotglass".
If "Off That" (which really should have had a verse from Drake on it to put it over the top for me) is all about movin on and not talking about the same old mess we've been hearing, which is stuff like ( I'm so cool, I'm so rich and I pop bottles all day and night" etc. etc. etc. Ghetto Techno sound like a contradiction to that and therefore I can understand it being left off the actual album, if that is actually the case.


On the real, though, I'm glad the released it simply for the fact that it's a Timbaland track, you can't let a beat like that go to waste.

All the money in the world don't make it painless

This track covers crazy ground with the topics they're spittin about! Its kinda old now, but until it shuffled up on my ipod today I forgot how damn good it is. For me it easily one of the best tracks of this new decade when it comes to the lyrics. Lupe talks about the shallowness of being materialistic, Kanye acknowledges stories of fame that are rarely spoken about in mainstream hiphop; all the people that almost make it to star status but never quite shine as bright as the musical guests on SNL or get stalked by TMZ, and then Pharrell just takes to it to another level! He compares a kitchen chemist cooking up crack to major pharmaceutical and chemical companies, discusses the intelligence of the new young and rich, talks about the Virgina Tech shooting as well as the general craziness of these times, and he does it all in one verse! Now thats LOCO! (Lyrics are here).
I really hope the album rumors about these guys are true!

Also, heres a classic track from Dead Prez where they say what they think about the public school system in the U.S. They're straight up about their Black Panther-style politics and militant roots, so if your easily offended by some hardcore revolutionary music...listen to this because it gets you thinking a lot more than most bubblegum rap. Theres a music video for this track on youtube as well but the audio and picture quality isnt that great so I put up this one.

New Joint from the best in the Game

Back at it again, its Dj BoNeZ here with possibly the biggest track of the Summer
Drake has done it again but this time with the best out there. This is the first track Lil Wayne and Eminem to ever be on together and i think Mr. West as well. After listening to it for the first time i thought Em killed and then listening to it over again i think Drake killed it hahah. Let me know who came harder on this track?
Anyways enjoy!

Is this the End Of A Legend?

all mommies with mind freeze please line up please,
all bloggers with comments, please I come in peace

This is ur boi- Dj BoNeZ doing his thang on his first blog

Well, well well....The Blueprint 3 is the eleventh studio album from arguably the greatest rapper of all time Jay-Z. The album promises to be his sickest work eva! And the end of the trilogy to the blueprint saga. The executive producer is no other than the hottest rapper right now Mr.West.

The track I've decided to feature is possibly the most hyped up track on the album. The track is produced by Thomas Crown himself Timbo and features Drake (a.k.a drizzy) some say its the passing of the torch.. BUT it lacks a verse from Drake which doesn't make senses, styll prop--errr!! tho. Anywyas Jay shows us that its not the END. Just changing things around haha

"Ya'll steady chasing the fame, we off that

Oversize clothes and the chains, we off that "

Tuff tune!!
I'm Off this!!

Best Pit-Stop Ever

Offer Assistance, Not Resistence

Hey it's yo boi $leezy Weezy here with another update. I just heard this song a few minutes ago and wanted to share it with all you guys out there.
A lil backgrond information:

Emmanuel Jal was born in war-torn Sudan in the early 1980's and was sent to fight in in Sudans bloody civil war with the rebel army. This song is about someone who helped him through his struggles and took him away from the war.
