Jay-Z doesn't get the chance to do many interviews now a days because of how busy he is so when he takes the time today to drop by Hot 97 to chat with Angie Martinez all of the hip-hop community paused the hear what the man himself had to say. Discussing everything from changing RIAA rules, his first week sales, Dame Dash, his daughter,
"Open Letter", Magna Carta sessions, Tweeting, Television, Money, Obama, his upcoming tour to
Yeezus and
Born Sinner as well as much more. You really get a glimpse of the humble attitude Jay has kept throughout his career while watching this interview and his insights on a few subjects that he may not touch in his music fully. If you've taken in
Magna Carta Holy Grail , this is a great follow up to an amazing album. Check out part one to Jay-Z and Angie Martinez's conversation and hit the link underneath to see the other two parts of the interview.
The 21st Century has given, among other things, rise to the most unlikely collaborations in all art forms. This one is no different. On paper, this team-up makes little sense: 2 brothers from the UK who make electronic/house/garage and a 16 year old dude from NY who got an MF DOOM cosign. However, press play and you'll understand immediately. The beat utilizes the trademark deep house chords but the drums sound like something straight from a Metal Fingers instrumental tape. It's a perfect marriage of new school and 90s Golden Era production, and creates a great playground for Nehru to hop around and demonstrate his amazing flow. This one definitely deserves the hype. Peep below. 
50 Cent drops a visual off Murder by Numbers, a free album he released on his website, to "NY". It's kind of obvious what this song is about and it's clear that 50 Cent has always been defined as a rags-to-riches New York rapper. Being a fan of 50 Cent myself, it's great to see that he hasn't stopped making music with all the success he's achieved. Be sure to check out the visual along with his album and I'm pretty sure you haven't heard the last of 50 Cent this year.
