I’m sure this was one of the more anticipated songs when the tracklist was revealed.
Drake’s just on the hook though. More futuristic Jigga and Timbaland to go around.
H…O-V-A…The Blueprint 3 on its way…

Sir Run Run Paw Says:
This is so hot, it’ll burn the pubes right off your nutsack.
________________
pause B2B you’re wrong.
This album is getting worse as time goes
DOA>Run This Town> This shit
*hands Dunce hat to Paw *
I knew this would be hard to deal with when I saw Timbaland was producing.
He gave Jay-z a Missy Elliott beat.
That shit is awful.
It ain’t that bad but I’m expecting a Blueprint 2 type of effort. Which I enjoyed.

This song prolly had auto-tune on it originally….it woulda sounded better if it did…
Paw went too far. lol
meh…
I feel like some of yall are going too hard on it… its a dope song… let it be what it is…
It’s a good jam y’all.
Compared to that Rolls Royce feat BZ joint this is slammin’ like Shaq!
OK, it might not be Grade A Carter, but it’s decent enough.
Flammable like JoJo Dancer’s Balls. Is that good or bad? I have no idea, but See No Evil, Hear No Evil is not as funny as I remember it being 20 years or so ago.
This needs a remix though, preferably The Tricky Stewart and The Dream treatment.
Peace out!
@Paw how do you go from that homoerotic first comment to “it’s decent enough”
you don’t believe in your opinions?
shits wackasabitch
@Khal, there was nothing fruity about my first comment, maybe you perceived it that way, because you like to eat bananas as well as apples? Hmm?
As for my opinion, well opinions are like drops in the ocean, often insignificant, when one looks at the bigger picture. Or on the other hand significant, like a bottle of ice cold Evian Water in the middle of the Sahara Desert. It just depends on what angle you look at it from.

^^^^^^^^^^ a hit record with autotune ^^^^^
I like this shit. Nice club banger, with that futuristic vibe…
cool track.jayz n timbo good track. not the epic track of their collaboration. let we see the cohesiveness of this one on whole album nevertheless. hey
if that is that new single.. a video would come this september huhm humm!
Nah. It’s garbage. Will it be huge? Monsterous. Jay-z + Timbo + Club DJ’s + Drake Stans = It’s a wrap.
Just Wack !!!!
@ legoland
i knew that someone will put autotune on it.
but probably only the chorus… cuz jigga don’t need no t-pain !
Mediocre ass tracks from legends who we expect to do better.
We off that.
Dear God,
I pray that this is the worst song on BP3,
in Jesus name
amen
….with that said, I can live with this song, another attempt at ending trends… wish the music was better, sounds like a throw away but that equation ^Jay-z + Timbo + Drake =^ sounded 2 good 2 be true
I can honestly say that if I never hear a new Timbo beat again, I’d be happy. Not feelin’ this at all.
the best hope on this album can be da track ft J.Cole ; Real As It Gets
and and and Jay’s version of Warrior Song !
cant wait to heard this lp nevetheless.
No lie, people are gonna love this shit. As long as the video is decent and the DJs play it, it’s gonna blow. White folks gonna dance to this shit.
The beat is bonkers. And if this is the worst song, we in for a classic. *DS said it*
there is no thing futuristique just a timbo beat… Jigga Man he’s starting to be overrated and we surrestimate the trend he started and ended…
Anyway a good track by a good rapper but the future is definetely not here
I’m not impressed…
Jay wasted money on Drake’s feature. I could’ve sung this hook for him in that tone for half the money, and wouldn’t have even asked for a feature credit.
We’ve heard better from all three of these guys… this is some real simple shit. I blame muhfuckin’ Timbaland. I haven’t heard any crack from Timbaland in I don’t know how long.
Timbaland you are no longer a “superproducer”. I strip you of your title Timothy Zachery Mosley. You will now be known to the hip-hop world as “Rockport”.
GTFOH with this BS.
material so far not great but solid. this joint is best out in my opinion. don’t understand all the controversy.
*does The Robot*
co sign Howser.
After reading my last comment, I feel as if it comes off kinda mean…
… but at the same time, this kinda pisses me off. With the help of Sean C. & LV (two relatively new producers) Jigga puts out an album easily worth 5 cigs.
Then… this! C’mon man! I was planning on buying this album!
I could’ve beatboxed for Jay and we would’ve made a better song than this.
shock value had dope beats.. after, songs ain’t beats, it’s more… and so
timbaland ain’t an artist as singer/songwriter, he’s a producer, a musician even. thus people didn’t judge shock value’s beats but dey critic the hits. but now a hit is a hit, timbaland wants also that commercial success and had it with his last lp. but don’t forget who is this dude, behind the machines… if u switch some people and give the beat to the right persona, the appropriate artist to killed it, it’s a wrap.
^ I hear ya Greums, but a “superproducer” is usually in charge of the overall direction of the track. Timbaland just let Jay-Z down IMO.
Take a look at the movie Fade To Black. When Kanye is in the studio with Jay, he has the beat ready… he has the rhymes scheme and melody already set, and like half of the hook. “Rockport” doesn’t do that anymore. He’s getting lazy.
Well its ok. I think he has surreal hype going right now. I think next time around, like 1 year from now. Jay just needs to drop an album with no hype, or singles, just a release date. Hell, leak it randomly. Everyone will be like wow this is hot. But the hype is just too much for this cd. I promise Forever Young better be like the song of the decade.
This is a good track.
It’s the blueprints third installment…..how can anybody but jay-z say how it’s supposed to sound.
And I’m not saying you have to like it. I personally can hear this song playing too much. first time around good track, good message ok next. I’m not hanging from the scroto
Off That = Hovi Baby Part 2
“Got mad at it and don’t want it no more”
Hovi Baby >>>>>>>>>>> Off That.
sounds like jay sippin that hater-ade sumn serious wit this album…yall too busy pole jockin him to notice, of course
LMAO @ “Rockport”
Sounds like some Heineken commercial joint. Its not great, but not horrible yall need to calm down..haha. Seriously, how long into the song did you decide it was the most horrible thing your ears ever heard? 4 seconds?
here’s a question, Is TImbaland a beatmaker or a producer? I always looked at him as a beatmaker.
He’s definetely a producer. Futuresex Lovesounds anyone?
these comments remind me of early jordan photos with the ugly color scheme. then once your color scheme was shown you had your love back.
Wow I see a trend and I don’t like it; this is 2nd straight weak single. Whatever happened to that Swagger Like Us part 2 with Dre 3000?
This nor good or bad a definite maybe
And if this is the worst song, we in for a classic. *DS said it*
———————————————–
….thats what i was saying..lol
Timbaland=producer. beatmaker is more like say a Zaytoven or these lil myspace n soundclick “producers”..they just make the track n send it out, have zero input on the actual song and more than likely, dont do any post production.
to me primo is more a beatmaker than timbo. no shots. but now off that Gangstarr’s experience, tha preemo’s shine was with nas, jay and dope artists with a massive impact. when it’s with his underground circle it’s not fucking amazin’. i talk about his beats! sorry. and i know it’s different type of artists. reks and co are way underground dudes, dope nevertheless.
BUT a beat it’s a beat. i don’t think that Reks would say Not for a Nas is like type of ish. Preemo’s last AMAZING beats please ? to me it’s from that 90′s era with the nasir’s, the jayz’s… no shots, i repeat ! i know he killed it with his christina’s work. he’s tha dude. incredible touch. it’s primo!!! but… i hope yall heard what i mean
Being a huge fan of both Timbaland and Jay I’ve got to say this is a massive disappointment. Where’s the trademark Timbaland neck snapping beat? The nasty synths? It’s a bit of a non-event.
and did Jay drop a verse? I don’t remember….
So far DOA is the best track from BP3 and that was pretty average.
jigga is the futur
[www.youtube.com]
…flow digital.
Ehhh it’s alright. Hopefully the album has much better tracks on it.
pretty disappointing…but its not horrible…kinda yawnish
He’s definetely a producer. Futuresex Lovesounds anyone?
=====================================
I’ll give you that. Can I get his last “classic “hip-hop track though. I’m sure you’ll have to dig a lot farther in the crate.
Sounds like some Heineken commercial joint. Its not great, but not horrible yall need to calm down..haha. Seriously, how long into the song did you decide it was the most horrible thing your ears ever heard? 4 seconds?
======================================
Believe it or not I downloaded it…. I’m still looking for a reason to like it more. I’m a HUGE Jay-Z fan, and actually like a good portion of the music that he gets criticized most for.
It’s not Jay-Z’s fault. It’s “Rockport’s”.
LMAO!!!
Like the great Greums said, Shock Value has some great production. I’d say “Way I Are” is a classic, but it’s Hip-Hop card probably gets checked @ the door.
Truthfully: he doesn’t make Hip-Hop beats no more. He “off that” lol
as if Timbo did Hip-Hop (typical) beats… lol! nah i heard you True Client !
Whatever happened to that Swagger Like Us part 2 with Dre 3000?
==========================
Great fuckin’ question.
@ Shail
if that SLU part II exist, jayz must to drop it, this christmas !
Umm way off subject, but did someone sell Maino and Joe Budden the same beat?
not jays best effort. I think if he’d stop tryna dead so many trends and shit I’d enjoy this track. whatever tho. Still wanna hear the rest of the album
*does The Robot*
————————————
*goes back to worming*
I am not impressed w/the short bit that I listened to.
I only listened to it for a split second b/c I’m determined to wait for the whole album.
Timbo needs to retire. Pronto.
Jay shoulda stopped after American Gangster. It was a good album and he could have went out talking about the same sh*t he came in with.
Redman & Timbaland – Put it down!!!!!!!!
Do my ears deceive me or is this a Timbaland beat?
It’s not your ears. It’s your eyes.
real talk gotty i aint even heard run this city except for in passing because im waiting for the complete shit.
…jiggas so old he performed at the boston tea party.
sorry…i coldnt help myself
before I listen to this joint…..
I gotta say…..
will Jay-Z even give a fuck what we have to say?
look at who Jay-Z is targeting w/ this album…….
obviously not the folks who wanted a Slaughterhouse album that wasn’t paid for…haha.
Jay knows what he’s doing….he’s going to make his $$$, his songs will still blow up and what we have to say will have lil to no impact whatsoever.
now…to take a listen….
im a jay of fan n im just smh…. i wouldnt even put this as a bootleg mixtape filler…. Kanye Should take Run this town for his next n jay should scrap these songs cuz im startin to think game is right n i dont feel game as much either.. they aint as good as they used to.. Not sure ill b listenin to drake….
and after listening to this….
it’s very….basic. I can understand why yall would think basic = bad….but still…Jay-Z + Timbo + a lil Drake = massive spins from DJ’s.
Honestly, this is some nice material for the club. If you disagree, you probably don’t listen to music from any place other than from your headphones, car…or your computer screen…haha.
shit bumps!!!!
hmm, at least things are looking good for raekwon’s new album…
i’ll have to give this another cpl chances perhaps
I don’t even wan to talk about this song. One thing I really liked about American Ganster is how it flowed well and how it sounded nice put together as a whole. So far out of the 3 tracks we have they all sound way different, kind of scares me. I never really enjoyed the album that had different songs aimed at different markets, cohesive projects make for classic records. I didnt hype this album up as much as some did but…..we can only hope for the best
I really wish that there was a Drake verse on this. The hook is okay but not the greatest. It could be an unfinished version though [thecorner.co.nz]
does anybody scroll down this far?
Pretty Weak…Run this Town was better.
yuck !
I am considering TImbaland as a good producer as well as an excellent beatmaker.
“Off That = Hovi Baby”
What a joke… haha
Maybe he shouldn’t of named it BP3, this album is gonna be shit.
WTF! Is it me or is Jay Z constipated “Ahh” “Ahh” this shit was horrible. greatest rapper alive i think not. Ugly ass big DSL having devil worshipping clown: we off that. he needs to go head and save face by retiring wit his ancient ass
