Saludos, Hovito.



At Kanye West's Glow In The Dark Tour show at Madison Square Garden last Wednesday, Jay-Z came onstage, and spit some new tracks: this little number right here, and a song called "Ain't I". These are potential tracks for The Blueprint 3. There isn't much to go on besides rumors, but Timbaland is slated to produce the majority of the album (EDIT: Several sources have brought to my attention that this is no longer the case; No ID and Kanye West will do some too). There are also talks of a collaborative record between the two; if you have talked to me in the last two weeks I have mentioned this and quoted Timbo as saying that it would be "like ten Big Pimpin's". Let me remind you how incredible this song is:

Seriously, holy shit. This is the apex of party rap, rivaled by few and equaled by none. Imagine an entire album of it. You'd run out of Cristal to pour on the legions of video vixens who follow you around everywhere. So let's cross our fingers and hope that it happens. Blueprint 3 could potentially come out as early as this December, which means the other album can't be too far behind...
