Did Drake Ghostwrite On Jay-Z New Single?!

Written by The Urban Daily on June 16, 2009 1:30 pm

VIA RU:

Jay-Z has the streets on lock with his buzz single “D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune).” Now the best rapper alive is preparing to unleash his radio single featuring the most-talked-about artist of the moment.

DJ Skee had the opportunity to preview “Off That,” Jay’s first single from The Blueprint 3. “I don’t want to really ruin the surprise,” the host of Sirius XM’s “Skeetox” radio show.

He reluctantly tells Rap-Up.com. “I mean it’s Jay, he’s killing it.”

While he didn’t disclose details, he did build anticipation for the record. “Jay sounds pretty incredible, man.”

Skee confirmed that hip-hop’s hottest newcomer, Drake, lends his talent to the song and that we should hear it in July, while The Blueprint 3 is expected in September.

Check out the ‘Disciples of Auto-Tune’ and get familiar on its history below:

    How in the f**k is ths article named “Did Drake Ghostwrite”? He is featured on a song by one of the best of all time. Not to mention the #1 ghostwriter. Is this the gimmick ya’ll use to get people to read?

    I would’ve read the article had it said “Drake & Jay-Z Team Up for Single” or something to that effect so I’m sort of pissed that the title was such BS and the article itself contained no evidence or even speculation of such. Hell, the title wasn’t even a sentence in the actual article! This has happened a few times with this site, stop it, you’re alienating your readership!!

    Don’t get it twisted Jay me up there in age however as far as lyrical content he is still one of the best… PLUS this ghost writing ISH Jay don’t even write his stuff down… Do the history he gets the track,hits the both, formulates his verse and then lays it in a few takes. Check his old album he learned it from Big it’s like an exercise remember… Check out fade to black also he lays it down in there. Come on ppl Hip hop needs us to keep the real artist wheter old or young where they need to be. All the BS songs out there we need to go back to Lyrical skill… Feel it, and love this ISH we call hip hop… Peace and blessings….
