Vevo made an official statement on the deal through a statement. (Death of Autotune).” Access to the videos began at midnight on December 4, Hov’s birthday. The “Young Forever Rapper” announced that he would team up with Vevo through his label Roc Nation to officially release a large piece of his music video catalog on the popular network.įans can now watch some of those classic videos, like “Young Forever,” “In My Lifetime,” and “D.O.A. Veteran rapper and business mogul Jay-Z gifted his fans on his 52nd birthday with more access to his hits. Too good.Jay-Z is “Young Forever” despite turning 52 and Vevo made sure to remind fans. So a no-show and hurt feelings started the whole thing and Jay-Z's mom ended it. It just pushes everybody to sharpen their skills.
I don’t feel you can compare his career to my career, but that’s just my opinion. I didn’t go in the studio to make a song. “I didn’t know it was gonna be the official battle of the beats, seven-hour marathon. “Freestyles usually go away in two weeks,” he said. It was really like, ‘Let me meet your level of disrespect with this level of disrespect.'”
“I felt like I didn’t think about women’s feelings or feelings, or even my mom. HipHopDX - “Mom put in a call and said, ‘That went too far.’ And she’s never, ever called me about music. In an interview with HOT 97's Angie Martinez (who had helped pour gas on the fire by debuting Supa Ugly on radio, and routinely played it and Ether back to back round the clock) Jay-Z regretted everything in hindsight. He also used the title track of The Blueprint 2 to continue the grudge. Jay-Z responded with mixtape diss "Supa Ugly" and went too far by getting extra personal (Pusha T style). On the contrary, it actually rejuvenated it for Nas and he came back with a vengeance on "Ether", which again, took things to the next level. People legitimately thought that it was a career-ender for Nas and he might never recover. I remember when this track dropped that the buzz was insane. Stop in Philly, order cheesesteaks and eat Beans fast, Then Jay-Z protege (and big time underrated rapper) Memphis Bleek hits the scene and takes some indirect potshots at Nas and Nas fires back hard on Stillmatic. Nas was originally supposed to be featured on the track, stood Jay-Z and his team up, so they sampled his verse instead, and Jay-Z never forgave him.
Whats crazy is Jay-Z might outdue Pres in grudges because this all stemmed from Nas no-showing to a recording session for Jay-Z’s track ”Bring It On” from his debut record Reasonable Doubt. Jay Z had famously sampled some of Nas' lines from the song for the chorus of his record "Dead Presidents II", and claimed in "Takeover" that he sampled it because "Nas was using it wrong" Most notably because Jay-Z referenced Nas' famous song from Illmatic, "The World Is Yours". Again, even though the first two verses of "Takeover" were intended for Mobb Deep, the main focus was on the third and final verse (which was 32 bars as opposed to the 16 that the first two each were). Mobb Deep responded with "Crawlin" but nobody really noticed.
The song received critical acclaim and really took the feud to a new level. (It was the first track of Jay-Z's that Guru ever mixed down.) The song was mixed by Jay-Z's now right-hand man Young Guru.
