    LOVIN’ IT!! THAT WAS HOT!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/rajarabbit/ rajarabbit

    The video looks like a bad remake to 2Pac’s California Love. But Rhianna ass looks good. Jay and Kanye doing there thing. Not really feeling this song, but its better than most things out there there now.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/maddox2u2/ maddox2u2

    This was ONLY creative if you haven’t seen any of the thousands of gladiator movies like this. There was nothing new or creative at all.
    Even the music was tooooo similar to the gladiator music. JayZ saw
    a gladiator movie and decided to make a gladiator video. Ho humm, there’s just no creativity these days. I’m going to take a nap on this one.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/tajaunp/ tajaunp

    yea DIS GON hit #1 its betta than rest of dat garbage out there

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BlackPrivilege/ BlackPrivilege

    I aint tryna be the Hater but I aint really feelin this song and the video just reminds me of a lower budget Tupac California video wit the Mad Max theme….come on man

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/thickwithatwist/ thickwithatwist

    I love it. JayZ and Kayne West is the s#!T anyway and Rihanna looks really beautiful too. Its the Roc N!99@Z!!!!!! LOL -Barbie B***h

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/InSearchOfA/ InSearchOfA

    How come Ri-Ri couldn’t call one of her ‘boyz’ to kick Chris’ ass? Hot joint tho. Maybe if he used Foxy instead the hook might have been better.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Lil_Money25/ Lil_Money25

    sounds like a protest for a new world order, then again what doesn’t these days.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/DAREALRECKLESS/ DAREALRECKLESS

    NOTICE how everyone always says how “good rihanna looks”. you NEVER hear or see ANYONE compliment her singing!

    she IS a singer RIGHT?………..

    anyways, EYE’m one of the BIGGEST Jay-z fans but he disappointed me with this one.

    flow is ALWAYS sick
    Kanye ALWAYS overacting in EVERY video
    Rihanna sounds like someone is choking her……like ALWAYS
    video is cliche
    i give it a C+

    you BETTER not disappoint me with this album JAY!!!!!!!!!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/blksouthern_belle/ blksouthern_belle

    This song sounds like a bunch of noise… not feeling it. COllabs w/ kanye and Jayz still cant help rihannas alley cat voice…. lol

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SoularFlarez/ SoularFlarez

    i liked the video till have started rapping….

    the song and video dont even match lol

    plus Jay-Z is just BORING to me (sorry lol) always talkin bout same s**t.

    i seen the video intro thinkin this negro was gonna be actually SAYING something….. “im balling, i got money blah blah blah”

    Nas is still better MC

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/burgstyle82/ burgstyle82

    Forty year old rappers are funny. You’re d4mn near in AARP, Hov! Sit your azz down. Ghost write for Soulja Boi or some sh1t.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/AngryBlackMan2G/ AngryBlackMan2G

    Jigga man did his thing on the track as usuall. I dont really care about whats new these bros need to be rapping about. The beat is bangin the flows smooth and its a hit bottom line. Better than this other bulls**t thats out now. Who the f**k told gucci mane he can rap wtf?

    DAVIDS YOU A STUPID MUTHAF**KA IF YOU THINK THIS NEW BULLS**T CATZ RAPPING ABOUT NOW IS HOT. JIGGA IS ORIGINAL AS IT GETS.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/servicemaster/ servicemaster

    Jay seems to be on the dark side of things? Makes u wonder about the concept of video peeps pay attention….

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BIG_RICK_1961/ BIG_RICK_1961

    I agree too much like California Love, I tried to understand the song and line it up to the video…still cant…I think the FAB/JayZ collab better…running towns cant be done…giving dudes wrong attitude..

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/kingeorgedathird/ kingeorgedathird

    damn dat s**t was hard as hell. cant wait for the album.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Oriedo/ Oriedo

    This is a good article blog foreal.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/hello_mellow_yellow/ hello_mellow_yellow

    I like it!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SwaGOnPoint83/ SwaGOnPoint83

    Hip hop just ain’t what it used to be… whats the deal with Jay referring to him self as God? I’m glad he finally came out and said he was a mason(I think he did)… but this has illuminati written all over it.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/rogea86/ rogea86

    The New World Order is on the horizon and these three artists are small pieces of a larger puzzle being fabricated by satan and his fallen angels! All forms of entertainment are being used as a tool to brain wash our people with subliminal messages,into worshiping the beast!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Queenof214/ Queenof214

    Jay the music is great, and the concept of being a leader or the boss is great, promoting black leaders is great as well. However the actual words and the weapons SEEMS to comtribute to seperation of black folks/music, east,west, north, south etc…. This competition of style for music is a great tactic for sales. Money isnt everything unless ur in debt, which SEEMS that you are not. i was feeling the black panther vibe and was hoping it would present unity for the black race in america especially that Obama is president. You can still be hard and have swagg without promoting THE NEGATIVE which is also great for sales. Once again your well off Lead By Example, TAKE CONTROL of the ATTITUDE and RESPECT we have for ourselves and music. Blacks were once the main target for population control now the population of the world seems to be controlled due to the sudden world disasters. So before we leave this earth Lead with PEACE,LOVE, and INTELIGENCE. YOU can do it, b/c you said it urself “Im the BEST!”

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Da_Special_One/ Da_Special_One

    I love it!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Chocolate_Gul/ Chocolate_Gul

    I like the beat & the concept

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Yahshuah/ Yahshuah

    Yes There is always underlining with jay-z.. from d’evils(devil) (beachchair)kingdomcome.. lucfier.. i mean the list goes on and on ..no man or female in his her right mind will refer themsleves as a god to anything!!!Sonner or later he is just gona say he is god..ever since the black album visual he has become darker.. but lyrically he has always been dark..its as almost if satan himslef his speaking through him . like god(jesus) would do with a pastor.. just go back to any of his songs .. and really listen to his lyrics .. very demonic..he just was able to cleaverly say it what he needed to say.. but to some folks like i use to be .. you might say aww man that was nice.. but not really..

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/intellectuall1/ intellectuall1

    lyrically i think the song could have been better on ri-jay-kanye’s part.

    the beat is tight, but we have all heard something similar to this before

    the video in itself would have been tight if it werent for the many videos and movies out there already

    they all doing their thing though got respect for them def would listen to this over “jerk hits” anyday

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/GoinabilityINC/ GoinabilityINC

    It’s so sad that people are watching this video and digging it. Especially those claiming to be against the devil. This is some of the most satanic s**t yet people are so blinded by the fact that it’s a music video. This is a ritual, not entertainment. Hov must feel extremely powerful because he’s not even trying to hide his horns anymore. Wake up people.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Crazypink69/ Crazypink69

    WELL DAMN I LOVE DAT SONG

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/ms_difyah_nasty/ ms_difyah_nasty

    You are so right Yashuah ive been saying the same thing for years, when he started calling his self Hov i was like wow people eating that up and they dont even realize he basically figured out a way for ppl to call him God. People stop just going with everything because it sounds cool. Hov is short for Jehovah which means God. The man might be the best rapper but when you think your God i cant honor that. My bible says put no other man before me so idk the song sounds good but iam straight on Jay Z.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/EmLarry09/ EmLarry09

    STR8 up ya’ll gotta see the music in this man, it’s creativity from the best in the biz. This is the craft they have perfected, simple as that. It’s hot, look at simple as that.
    B-Ez

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BIGL1231/ BIGL1231

    Why are ppl reading so much into this its a music video. I mean does it matter if you call him hov, Jay or Jigga plz be serious. If your faith is strong in GOD then no man can detour you from him. So just enjoy the vid if you dnt like it keep it moving. I love Jigga, Jay-z or Hov or HOVITO what ever I know who my GOD is. I LOVE EVERYTHING HE DOES AND THIS VID AND SONG IS FIRE!!!!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/intellectuall1/ intellectuall1

    on an other note i think yeah i def had to rel isten to the part of him comparin him self to god but hey i feel the same way the person below feels..we know what god means to us nad nothing should change that just liek the word nigga..its a word we call each other nigga all the time but once someone else says it its taboo…we klnow jay isnt god he knows he aint god its a song ppl not a history or religion lesson

    YO ” BIGL1231 ” JUST SAID IT ALL. THANKS. I COULD NOT HAVE SAID IT BETTER MYSELF.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/JamakinBoy/ JamakinBoy

    lmmfao… its funny how yall talkin bout the bible this n god that but all yall preachin is hate… even if he callin himself god… plus up north dudes use the word god like “son” or “dude”… im almost certain he isnt sayin he is the creator… its god of the rap game… chill out n stop makin up s**t 2 complain about… by the way… The song n video = fiyahhhhh!!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/JamakinBoy/ JamakinBoy

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/ms_difyah_nasty/ ms_difyah_nasty

    WOW I THOUGHT THAT THIS WAS THE COMMENT BOARD, IAM SPEAKING FOR MY SELF NOT ANY ONE ELSE , IF YOU FEEL ITS ALL GOOD THEN THATS YOU. ALL I SAID WAS MY BIBLE SAID PUT NO OTHER MAN BEFORE ME , HOW IS THAT PREACHING HATE? AND I SAID THE SONG WAS OKAY . AND TO THE PERSON THATS SAYING ITS JUST MUSIC AND WE ARE READING TO MUCH INTO IT, YOU MUST DONT LISTEN TO LYRICS THEN. SO IF A BUNCH OF WHITE PPL WERE SAYING IN A SONG I HATE ALL N****RS , WOULD YOU SAY ITS JUST A SONG? PLZ BECAUSE YOU WILL ROCK YOUR HEAD TO ANYTHING NO MATTER IF IT GO AGAINST YOUR BELIEFS THEN U DO THAT.IAM SORRY IF I LISTEN TO WHAT PPL ARE SINGING AND RAPPING ABOUT THATS ME AND THATS YOU.I GUESS IAM A MORE DEEPER PERSON THEN YOU ARE.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/slice_8706/ slice_8706

    Looks just like Jeezy’s video “CRAZY WORLD”!!!!!! Looks like Nas’s “One mic video”!!!! and the same concept as Nas’s ” HIP-HOP is DEAD” for all of you calling this creative and original are truly blind! Jay-z spits some of the weakest bars ive heard from him in a long time! How can you “Run the Town” when Kanye got on the track and ran you off it! I hate to say this but Jay may need to sit down and rethink if some of his works are truly as good as he thinks they are, because clearly they’re not. NOTHING WORST THAN A MC GETTING ON A RECORD AND ACTING LIKE ITS THE HARDEST SHI T OUT, AND THE PPL YELL BACK WE DONT BELIEVE YOU.
