spotted @ Nah Right
Check out the premiere of Jay’s new video for ‘Show Me What You Got’ directed by F. Gary Gary. The quality kinda sucks but, you can still see it’s a neat vid…makes me like the song a tad bit more.

LOL @ #115 Nix…I guess I am kinda late. Anyway….
I just read your post…”@44 thanks for posting that boo at least now i can back up my point that lyrically that nigga jigga aint saying shit”. That was too funny!!
@Jscene – Thanks. Good to see someone agrees with me. And your welcome buddy! *singing…that’s what friends are for, keep smiliing, keep shining, knowing you can always count on me…for sure…that’s what friends are forrrrr”
I co- sign’s with #15 and 20
LMAO @ girl blue
I think that I liked the earlier Jay Z a LOT better than this new mess… I guess back then he was hungrier amd he wanted it a lot more but now a days he is just too damn comfy just like his boo and they are putting out sub par music. I really don’t see what all the damn excitement was about for the black album and this is pure BS. I am tired of rappers rapping about the same BS. RAP IS DEAD!!!!!! Jay Z helped Murder it.
Hatin’ ass niggaz!
Jay is as dope as he has ever been but because he’s bringing more light to africa’s/nigeria’s problems than all the humanitians combined. Niggaz just don’t know how to act. Espically when someone like is just doing to good. “the old Jay” my ass! that nigga don’t wear no damn jersey’s, he ain’t chasin’ no bitches. He chills with prince charles and koffi Annan. He is evolving and y’all need to deal with it. Oh and for those who say he ain’t that good of a lyricist. I know this is a place to post your opinion-but u gotta be honest with yourself first Damn!
Sorry last one but sometimes my people amaze me. Americans mad ‘casue not only is he respected worldwide,but he also gets to go back to ther motherland and then has a street named after him when he gets there in one of the biggest cities in Africa (it’s true it is a continent. I looked it up-it’s a bunch of countries-they got 54 of them shits). Africans are mad that some rappin’ ex-crack dealer is doing more for their country/continent then they can do for they damn selves. Don’t get mad at us ’cause the only good thing to come out of Africa on tv, is black people, Akon, and Angelina’s Baby girls. People critize the man for basically doing good and giving back and still making a hot video with no damn “pull a muscle or u ain’t doin’ it right dances” y’all are some hatin’ ass niggaz. Grow up and let that crab-in-a-barrel shit go
sorry I know I said last one but I’m high on that cali-green. Not to mention ain’t none a y’all can afford 1 million dollar cars (looked that shit up too). Most y’all consider college in the next state travelin’ so u ain’t ever gonna got to Monaco (unless u puff or 50,outkast or pharell) or get to go private parties and secret locations erego you should be happy that someone that looks like you and you can relate to (at least physically you broke-ass niggaz) is doing these big things. To me as a young black male that says to me subconciously. That yes it can be done. Maybe not racing boats with fine bitches in the south of france but at least doing better than what most people expect of me. That’s all he’s saying in his raps u know I did me now get off my dick and do u
Hotness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Song is mediocre at best, but it will grow on me. The video has a very grown and sexy feel to it.
It once again proves that he is on a level all by himself. The other rappers are okay but he is the one.
To them:
“Yeah you shinin but the only thing you’re leavin out you’re a candle in the sun – that shit don’t even out”
Plus, what other rapper you know can advertise their video and album during Monday night football ie the Undefeated Chicago Bears vs Cardinals Game.
There is only one. None before and none after. Holla
Hot song and hot video!
lmao of JPHATTY, u right, i’m still trying to figure out wtf he talking bout that’s new.
but I do like the video…..it enhances the song & make it sound betta, which is what a video is supposed to do. Jay is still played out to me …… I watched that Fade to Black crap and JAY Z really ain’t orginal at all, a lot of what he did at that show in NY & his tracks/concepts of his songs came from KANYE. The popular lyrics from other songs & previous albulms were clones of BIGGIE and i wonder where he got the “inspiration” for this albulm from?
hmmm……next please……will the real hip hop artists please stand, so this fool can sit down
Id like Jscene , Nix or Foxxy to tell me who the best rapper alive is?
And by the way Pac wasnt no lyricist , he could rap but he aint had no killa wordplay…his shit was tight cuz of how he said it and what he said (social commentary).
He’s not better than jigga lyrically, Pac’s music was delivered well ..he has that type voice that makes u stop and listen cuz he was passionate but his words were very simplistic.
Damn #129 do you even bother to stretch before you start reaching like that. lol why don’t you give me an example of originalty in a rapper. Taht’s an oxymoron far asI’m fuckin’ concerned

Not really feeling the video but since it’s Jay I guess I will give it a chance
The video is hot but the song sounds just like encore, with all the trumpets and shit.
YOU’VE BEEN HOODWINKED, YOU’VE BEEN HAD, YOU’VE BEEN TOOK, YOU’VE BEEN LED ASTRAY, LED AMOK, YOU BEEN BAMBOOZLED! (MALCOLM X)
OMG, I can’t believe this shit. What has happened to this dude? Somebody put a pin in his head? Bring back down. I have never thought of Jay as the GREATEST but I think of him as BETTER, better than what’s on the radio. Now, I can’t even get my thoughts together on this. I’m SHOCKED! This is no more than a mediocre piece of shit that will blend right in with everything else. Don’t blame Beyonce people. This man is responsible for his own crap. Jay-z is the EPITOME of what happens when you believe in the hype. Is it so crazy to HUMBLE? Or to have money and still have substantial music? Is That hard to do?
I’m not asking Jay to write raps about the hood, but when it seems that the world has put your ass on a pedestal, you could at least DELIVER. If this dude was a new rapper he wouldn’t be any better than T.I–he’s a joke, or lil’ Wayne or even Young joc–an even funnier joke, but just another bullshit rapper. Hell I would compare his ass to NELLY! Jay is hilarious, and a bit DELIRIOUS. THINK people Think! This is the monster y’all have created.
I have come to the conclusion, that maybe Jay-z was never the BEST and always MEDIOCRE. We needed a change, and he was a breath of fresh air. Now that he’s up there those TRUE fans are really watching his skills and are noticing that this is a piece of shit rapper. Really, he hasn’t been about anything since REASONABLE DOUBT. The last two albulms he made were WACK! What the fuck is he on? Or is it us? Well, Y’all not me. You folks are dedicated fans to both music and Jay-z if you think this “HOTT.”
MAYBE the majority of you who claim that Jay and the DAMN song is so hot are just hanging on to the OLD-OLD Jay-z. . . . .that probably never was?
Success can kill anything and anyone. Look at Jay-z as an example. He’s a product that was never really worked but it was better than everything else on the mainstream market. Put it back people. Be a sophisticated consumer. Don’t buy everything cuz everyone is talking about it. PEACE
@#135
Damnit! I Co-sign it! You said exactly what I was about to say. He’s all HYPE and nothing more. One day these Jay stans will see. 135, You forgot to add that he’s delusional too. Merely for not being humble and working hard at just being Jay but instead he running and I suppose you call that working with “greastest rapper” alive in his head. I call it shooting the shit because I’m the shit. And this is exactly what happens. An overrated rapper he is. JAY-Z=CRAP, and crap sells. I don’t know if you know that or not.
co sign with # 30, but it seems as if you hating on dude cause i came across 2,3, or maybe 4 comments made on your behalf. i mean i think jay said he’s retired and it should of stayed that way that is why i lost respect for him…..
he’s a sad sack of shit
jay only blew up after the deaths of big and pac..its the truth yall..if they were still here jay would not be where he is and he knows that..i can remeber back in the day when they used to play jay on the radio it was like nothing..big was always the king of the east and pac of the south..this song is not rite..its extra wack..i’m starting to hate the music industry bc they are just putting out anything..i been stopped buying cd’s
THIS SONG IS WACK!!!!!!
I like Jay-Z, but he could have come back stronger than this…
@ #4 MsMac1, I agree Jay Z is all about himself. That’s why him and Bey make such a good couple. Lyrically, Jay Z ain’t all that. Not saying he is a bad rapper but he ain’t good either. Think about it, where was he when Pac was here? hmmmmmmm Somewhere hiding behind a rock wishing Pac would never mention his name in his songs again. OK I got a little off topic here but anyway like I said earlier Jay Z is all about himself. But he will realize one day that when you are that way you won’t get too far in life. If God bought you up, he sure can bring you back down just so you can humble yourself.
jay came out as a solo artist in late 95 with in my lifetime(the song).his first album was released in june 1996,pac died in september 1996!!jay’s biggest crossover was hardknocklife and it became huge not because some ” fake comic book character” rappers died!!!!get it?even if your dead clowns were alive jay will still be this big!!jay in 96=owner of rocafella records,pac in 96=suge’s slave.btw:jay-z>pac follow jay-z on the “water for life tour” at mtv
hey ya’ll wut is up and ya i juss wanet to check diss site out so pce out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@66
How do you measure “greatest rapper”? Money? Record sales? Longevity? Awards? He would probably has a good case. Or do you want to use something subjective? Opinion based where you get and anyone who thinks like you gets to pick? By any measurable standard J has a legitamate claim in saying he is the best ever.
And tell me this…why do people who engage in a transaction think either party owes you anything additional than the implied agreement? I go to McDonalds, I give them $1 and they give me a cheeseburger. Or business is done! If you buy a Jay Z album, a movie ticket, a ticket to a basketball game, once you receive your merchandise (the disc or entry) the transaction is complete. You do not owe them an extra $5 if it is better than you thought it would be and they owe you nothing further. That’s life. If they chose to give you more it is nice but it is not owed.
