Image
Jay-Z’s song of DJ Khaled’s “ GOD DID “ track resulted in a 12-minute break-down by MSNBC’s hip Hom-quoting anchor Ari Melber – and the song is now available through Hov’s official accounts on Apple Music, Spotify, and TIDAL. The track that was released in the early hours of the 2nd of September (September 2.) in the form of “HOV DID” – is essentially a direct replay of Melber’s meticulously thorough analysis. “As a journalist, I report on an interview many artists,” Melber stated to HipHopDX. “But having JAY-Z publish the report we wrote on his song as a track is the first time – and a great honor. JAY-Z sharing the report with his listeners enhances the meaning to the public domain, making a beat story into a sort of audio-guide to accompany his incredibly dense and profound lyrics about his life and the absurdity that is the battle over drugs.” He went on to say, “And as Jay might say, he sampled my voice, and turned it to ‘a hot song.’ As for whether I was using my voice ...

Charlamagne stated, “I believe that’s what makes people amazing.” “Cause to my mind, the verse sounds really amazing, but here’s what. JAY-Z is truly great. He has been consistently great for a very long time.
