SHOW JAY WHATCHA’ GOT!

Jay-Z is out of retirement and has returned with his new single, “Show Me What You Got.” I really love the production, I haven’t decided whether or not I like the song or not. I have to listen to Jay-Z’s verses more than a few times to decide whether or not I like them. But I’m a Jay-Z fan. I’m hoping that has album is up to par, because people have been saying that he’s trying to hard recently. I’m not sure what I think yet, but I’d love what you guys have to say about the single. I will form my opinion later, so I’d like to hear what you guys have to say.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HATE JAY Z AND HIS DEVIL MUSIC
Womp womp
I heard the song while driving home today. I don’t care for it to much. I hope he comes out with some records that sound like his older stuff. Because that’s really what I want to hear from him.
This is Good but could be better. Better than 99% of the bullshit on the radio.
2nd??
Anywho i like it…
LOL WELL THIRD AIN’T BAD…DAMN I NEED TO GET A LIFE!
It’s okay? Not what I expected from jayz though sounds like he just learning how to rap.
LOL NEITHER IS 7TH
OR NINTH
LMAO I’M TOO STUPID TODAY! MUST BE ALL THE WORK THEY HAVE ME DOING AT MY LOVELY JOB…..
what goes up,must come down im afraid, can’t wait for nas’s album though. sounds kind of ironic
not impressed
I’m not feeling that one. I haven’t really cared much for Jay’s music since Blueprint #1 with the exception of a couple of songs. I like the old Jay-Z style better.
Not really feeling it…
And yes, Sesame Street, you do need to get a life lol.
Lol, I can already tell I’ma just get pissed off in this post, so I’ma say my piece and me out.
Song is HOT. He came totally different with it. What song on the radio sounds like this? What rap artist has a joint out that is so different like this? Totally has a grown and sexy feel, and it’s something you can dance to.
The saxophone by Chad Hugo… the Wrecks N Effects sample. The Public Enemy sample. The drums. And the flow.
Sorry… but this song is hot, and you might not appreciate it now, but you will.
And it will be a number 1 song.
Yup!
Don’t too much care for any of Jay-Z songs. The only one I really cared for was “Song Cry”.
I can’t see ‘em comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry
I can’t see ‘em comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry
Good dudes – I know you love me like cooked food
Even though a nigga got move like a crook move
We was together on the block since we lunch
We shoulda been together havin 4 Seasons brunch
We used to use umbrellas to face the bad weather
So now we travel first class to change the forecast
That was my $hit right there.
OH BY THE BY…THIS SONG SOUNDS LIKE HOT GARBAGE! WHY THE HELL DID HE DO “RUMP SHAKERS” BEAT IN THE BEGINING? IT DIDN’T EVEN GO WITH THE SONG……WACK WITH A CAPITAL W.
I hope he doesn’t put this on his new album.
it’s funny, this song isn’t great but it will blow up just because it’s him…kinda like some of the stuff his girl has put out recently. i like her new song/video though, I must say.
Sound like a song leftover from the Black Album. It’s A’ight though.
also, based on # 15′s comment, i just remembered how it’s also funny that jay z has some serious male stans while his girl has some serious female stans…they really do have so much in common. people can’t stand an unfavoring opinion about them.
Wow Jay is my nigga but I’m not feeling this song at all. Hopefully it will grow on me.
This song sound like “what more can I say” I like the beat but it sounds like a repeat
LMAO @HONEYCHILE YOU AIN’T NEVER LIED…
I’m listening to it again, the first time it kept “stutting”(skipping)….anyway,so far I love the lyrics;no surprise there. Right now,at this moment…I will have to hear this track a few more times,to really give a heartfelt comment.I saved it so my husband can hear it. He loves whatever Jay-Z puts out. Someone did mention on a post above,that it sounds like a “leftover”- I will have to agree with that statement. ***But I’m sure he”ll have some heat,for the winter(that’s what he said) so I’ll keep waiting…………****RUBBING HANDS TOGETHER****
I like this. I bet Questlove is on drumbs.
I love to here really good live instrumentation with Rap.
Sesamestreet the sample is from a Public Enemy song called “Show Em’ Whatcha Got”. N2Deep and Wrecks n Effect used this too. I’m loving this song it could because it uses real instruments. It reminds me of “Encore” which was my summer jam last year.
The beat is hot. Although I’m typically a sucker for horns and percussion. I’ll have to give the lyrics a couple of listens to really like the song, but I’m feeling it a bit after the first and second listens.
“Shots of Patrón/ Now she in the zone/ I ain’t talking about the two-three/ Mami in the zone like the homie 23/ Jordan or James/ Makes no difference/ We all ballin’ the same.”
“I got a drop/ I just took off the top/ It’s your turn.”
i like it..
I like it. I love the instrumentation.
That Texas love is rubbin off on him. “Lil mama and shaw-tey”. That’s what dudes back at home call the ladies.
Not feeling it…He better come hard with his first single cause this track is garbage.
After listening to the first 30 seconds I thought . . . Encore Pt.2
Maybe it’ll grow on me
Wack, nothin new. Same ole dry lyrics “Mike Jordan of blah blah”. Sampled Wrecks N Effect’s “Rump Shaker” which is a sample in itself.
When MJ came out of retirement he dropped 55 on the Knicks 1st game. This nigga comes outta retirement and drops shit in a toilet bowel ist single. Stll that dude though. Im sure the album will have some shit, it better.
Booooooooooooooring.
that beat got so much goin on….its hard to flow on it…damn
jigga is goin hard this time tho…i cant wait for the album..
I hope Jay isn’t losing his touch…but this song is lil disappointing. C’mon Jay…
I hope Jay isn’t losing his touch…but this song is lil disappointing. C’mon Jay…
It’s a wack sample. This cat needs to just give the fuck up, because this is wack. Or maybe he should do this and flop, cuz he needs a wake up call.
The album is going to be hott. Cant wait to get my burnt copy. j/k
I’m not impresssed and believe me, I am a huge fan of hov but this doesn’t do it for me.
He on that beyonce booboo lol the background is louder than he is..i can barely hear him.
I ain’t impressesd, but it wont hurt his pockets tho.
And ppl sayin its hot cus its different, yeah right. Nelly did a song with a country singer and he got flack for it.
i love the beat
but wtf is he talking about.
i dont know…
HUGE Jay-Z fan, but since Blueprint #1, he has been dropin shit I don’t really like which is not good because I am one of his only ORIGIONAL fans in Los Angeles County LOL!!!
I think after BLUEPRINT, he got very comfortable and rich and stopped tryin. Or is it that he and his girlfriend are really good with the Smoke and Mirrors act and were never really all that good in the first place? I don’t know but what they have been droppin’ lately is a bunch of BULLSHIT (except for Beyonce’s latest white girl POP single that I am kind of feelin’).
But everyone must get a reality call eventually!! What ever happened to superstars like Michael, Janet and Madonna who travel the world, she whats new and incorporate different styles to their music, and only put out an new album every 3-4 years instead of this rushed SHIT everyone is feeding us now?
I like it, the horn reminds me of Rump Shaker
Jay Z the secret society corporate controlled hip pop puppet gets no love. The occult symbols are all around his clothing, label & music. Go cop KRS ONE’s LIFE cd. Peace
I like it.
IM READY FOR JAY TO COME BACK IM TIRED OF THIS DIRTAAAY SOUTH BUMPKIN SHIT
Come harder than that Jay…come on, don’t lose your touch
WHEN I HEARD IT WAS JUST BLAZE ON THE PRODUCTION, I THOUGHT IT WAS GONNA BE FIRE. BUT, THEN I WAS DISSAPOINTED.
Honey when you say you’ve retired! You suppose to retire damn bye!
Lol @ 15, i hear u…
But Anyway, i havent listened to it yet and i wont be biased jus cus its jay-z (ima fan), he better not disappoint!!
oh yeah…i can rock to this real nice w/ a little drink in my hand. It didn’t blow me away, but he’s proven himself for umpteen albums so I’ll give his album the benefit of the doubt. I hope there’s no Beyonce features on his album…it think those two make each others songs terrible.
I am so sick of down south music I’ll TAKE WHAT i CAN GET!
I AM THE MICHAEL JORDAN OF RECORDING…
i love this!
It prolly would make a difference if he really did “retire”. He’s been on everybodys music since he left. And being gone for 2 yrs is not a retirement, it’s a vacation! I never was a Jay-Z fan. I liked Nas’ flow more. Has better metaphors.
omg its so hot did you hear the horn when the beat drops?? His flow is so effortless when the bass hits you can feel the insouciance. The song feels right and its fun, I’m loving this one. Jay-Z is the best MC ever period, I said it.
for everyone saying they don’t like, wait until the video comes out and it is killed on the radio
I love the trak. It’s diffrent from anything that out there and it’s also has an ol’skool vibe to it.
