Re: "Show Me What You Got" by Jay-Z Anyone heard this yet? Maybe you've seen his new "The King is Back" commercial to know. I downloaded the song "Show me what you got" and I think it's pretty good.What do you guys think?
Re: "Show Me What You Got" by Jay-Z I thought is was horrible. I like the beat and the music video was cool because of the cars and Beyonce. But the song in general just sucked.
Re: "Show Me What You Got" by Jay-Z The beat is crazy nice... but Jay fell off.He hasn't had a good verse forever. But the album still going to be dope. Kingdom Come and Hip hop is dead from Nas will either save New York or give it another loss.
Re: "Show Me What You Got" by Jay-Z im starting to like it since its played on every football game...but this isnt jayz at its best ill tell you that much
Re: "Show Me What You Got" by Jay-Z This song is very overrated. I really think it sucks, and the only reason some people like it is because it's from Jay-Z... his album better be a whole lot better than this...
Re: "Show Me What You Got" by Jay-Z Another thing... it's a single.Don't judge an album by its single
Re: "Show Me What You Got" by Jay-Z Sucks? This song is an absolute club banger. Lyrically it isn't typical Jay stuff but to call it horrible is way over the limit.

I just feel disappointed by the single. I was expecting more from Jay... but like I said, hopefully his album is fire, otherwise...

Even if they did, do you think Jay-Z would give a rat's ass?

Re: "Show Me What You Got" by Jay-Z All of you besides playa are wrong, he used a sample from a track of Public Enemy and the saxophone comes from Darkest Light by Lafayette Afro Rock Band.

Check the booklets of your rap and hip hop cds, more than likely you will find words such as "contains elements of" or "contains samples of" and then the name of the song they sampled from. Sampling is one of the reasons some people dont count hip hop and rap as "real" music sometimes, because sampling from other artists songs is so common.
