Yall gon' learn today! Jay-Z, who is fresh from his trip to Cuba surprises us with a new song, which he premiered on Hot 97 this morning. The legendary Hip-Hop icon teams with both hit makers Swizz Beatz and Timbaland on "Open Letter".
Hov goes on a bit of a rant on this record, not holding back at all. He addresses the recent hot topics including his "controversial trip" to Cuba with Beyoncé that is now under investigation (America is so sensetive!) Jay raps "I done turned Havana to Atlanta"/ "Obama said chill you goin get me impeached". Hov also addressed his ownership stake in the Brooklyn Nets. Recently Jay loses his share over the Nets but he told us in "Open Letter", "I still own the building, I’m still keeping my seats". He then rapped about his new deal with Universal Music saying, "Got an onion from Universal, read it and weep".
I honest heard better songs and verses from Jigga, like his verse in H.A.M ft. Kanye West. I thought the production was hot and the message was powerful but I would not download it. It's a 2 minute rant about his life, why do I need to hear that everyday. But if somebody askes me "What song does Hov rant on about his life" I would blast "Open Letter". Jay needs to this though, he has been all over news these past couple of weeks. Go ahead Hov, do you! People better realize that Hov ain't playing around, he is taking over like he said, “The world’s under new management"....may be we need to stay tuned!
