Definitely put the message out for all the people who can't listen. LOOSE THE CHAINS, LOOSE THE FLASHY CLOTHES, speak with your lyrics people who claim they're in the rap game. This video made me actually realize that Jay isn't trying to eliminate these things completely, but he's calling out the people who are drowning themselves in all these things when there's nothing behind it to back anything up. I was a little clueless at some of the things that relates so much to Kanye, but now it makes sense. Kanye has earned his shit and has proven himself through lyrics and everything else he's done for the music industry.

>---------------->Lyor Cohen as the butler, the bling blowing up, sitting solo at the restaraunt eating dinner (jay is the God father)the non bubble gum vibe but very pop (catchy hook la la la la hay hay hay good bye) Jay is definetly the king of ths shit and will not be headed.

JazzellWilliams | June 29, 2009
Its **DOPE**
But the whole rumor on MTO about him shuttin down chris's performance is foul.. Nobody can do an MJ tribute like chric Brown.
And DEATH OF AUTOTUNE. Yeah I'm with it
But only death of it to the people who don't do it justice.
So if you're not Kanye, T-pain, Lil Wayne then stfu
Seriously
W/e..
I don't use autotune
I rap and sign with my own voice! =P

MightyMos | June 29, 2009
cutting the hair is like a new beginning, bring the rawness back into rap... this is dope
xXxUnderGroundxXx | June 29, 2009
he just blew up slimshady's clown suits HA! he is saying stop with all the flash and spit it! HA its a great video, because i think hip hop is not about what u have, but what u say. they should break hip hop up into different styles like they do everything else, cuz to many people make 40 rap and call it hip hop
VicSkywalker | June 29, 2009
WEAK SONG...WEAK VIDEO.. Sorry
000 | June 29, 2009
Well well well Jay I can def understand the whole meaning to this "ya T-paining too much" but the "lala hey hey hey goodbye" shoulda been repeated twice! But then the whole point hit me while He was performing like THIS AINT NO SING ALONG SONG! ha clever funny clever ass song but Overall good performance. Are we going thru sumn with the hair? lol or does that signify shits old!!!? hum
000 | June 29, 2009
But um.....RIGHT!!!!...so Im glad others think 4themselves cuz Jamie foxx was WASTED at the lil 'after' show n he was sayn Jay gotta give him a pass cuz if not he'd be out of tune w/out Autotune! ha had me laughing but If sum1 were smart with the marketing it'd be like 50vs.Ye cuz I know a hella lotta people really aint AGREEING with the song! (the streets but cuz the streets recognize respect THATS JUST WHAT IT IS...cuz Hove got people feeln and or talkn CRAZY halol about D.O.A). It's cool though we luv ya Jay.oooh by the way WHATS U WITH ALL THIS BLACK ATTIRE?
000 | June 29, 2009

QueenKourtney313 | June 29, 2009
I am SO embarrassed and disappointed
1.) BET can go to HELL!
a. so much for my M.J tribute
b. hot, ghetto mashed up MESS!
c. Poor Joe Jackson. Was last night payback for how he treated Michael most of the years?
-why wasn't Mariah there to sing "I'll Be There?" She does it best.
2.) a. No acknowledgement/real respect for our new President
b. could've mentioned Motown's 50th atleast once dammit!
BUT since I did watch the worst BET awards show to date...
*Beyonce- beautiful performance though I'll always favor Aaliyah's rendition of Ave Marie :)
*New Jack Swing!!
*I almost jumped through the screen to dry hump Trey when they were singin Stairway To Heaven lol
*Proud of those who did recognize M.J properly and stayed focused on him. We really do love you Mike. RIP
*JANET!!!! my poor sweet Janet. I love her
3.) Im STILL waiting on the REAL tribute, fuckerz!
QueenKourtney313 | June 29, 2009
death of hair clipperz too apparently. decent vid. still a hot song :)

I hate that Jay can't make an album without a gimmick. Song isn't that great. Everyone just loves it cause it's Hova. The beat is overdone. The whole things feels contrived.
fashhh | June 29, 2009

Great idea to use this sample of Janko Nilovic.The beat is crazy and cool vid by the way
Bandito2510 | June 29, 2009
the whole thing is great! Great concept, great video, great song, great visuals... this is how it's done! It's been a long time coming for someone to call this everything out... kinda like NWA did way back when...
KanyeNnotKayne | June 29, 2009
THIS IS NOT POINTED AT KANYE...KANYE EARNED SHIT WITH COLLEGE DROPOUT, LATE REGISTARTION, N GRADUATION
mikec | June 29, 2009

MrGoldCub | June 29, 2009
Ye you should have been hooping with Lebron & Jay. This song is dedicated to Weezy.

You sound like Kanye haters. Maybe you just a HOV hater. If you don't like the song then you have to respect the beat. It's HARD.
