Jay Z & Santagold - Brooklyn Go Hard

Hmmm So I know this is probably the last place you expected to see bumping Jay Z tracks, and you're right. He's so big he doesn't need people raving about his output, if he wants to be number one then I'm sure he can afford to buy as many singles as he needs to get there. However I actually quite like this tune, it seems like he's got over his minor 'rock star' phase where he was spotted dropping verses on Coldplay tracks an chatting cobblers about Noel Gallagher (frankly who gives a rats arse?) whilst considering taking guitar lessons, maybe he has realized the average Oasis or Coldpay fan is closed minded enough to hate him even though he's now collaborating with them. Who knows? Anyway less of the random rambling and back to the point. This is produced by Kanye West, and yeezy has hit the nail right on he head. Looping up the 'Brooklyn We Go Hard' sample from Shove It by Santagold he lets the break do all the work, and whilst Jay Z chats, he's bringing elements of the hook in and out all the way through the tune... It's Nice, I'm gonna play it tonight!

So for your listening pleasure here's

Jay Z featuring Santagold - Brooklyn Go Hard

Ludacris - MVP

OK It's been a while since I stuck up any audio for you people to wrap your ears around and for that I apologise. In my defense it wasn't my fault, there hasn't been that many tunes I would consider worthwhile sticking online in the last few weeks. However, things change and DJ Premier has been back in the studio this time formulating a sick beat for Ludacris which means I got fresh new material for you.

Taken from his new album Theatre of Mind, Luda keeps it real with this tasty little number. Hopefully this will be the proof A&R's need stateside to get off the 808 driven dirty south sound and get back on the orignal hip hop tip.































Ludacris - MVP (produced by DJ Premier)
