Treats #89 - Jay-Z & Kanye West's Watch The Throne Tour LIVE

Jay Swing — Sat, 05 Nov 2011 01:23:57 -0500

There are two concert this year that have me geeked out. The first is motherfucking Prince, and the very next night it is these two - Jay-Z & Kanye. That's right, Prince and Watch the Throne back to back. Throw in Pete Rock vs. Premier in town that same weekend and odds are I'm going to lose my fucking mind. Anyways, if you can't make (or afford) the Watch The Throne show then here is your fix - a recording of the whole concert from North Carolina. Hov & 'Ye Stans rejoice. 40+ songs. Cray!

Hello, my name is Stan. This may be my favorite Jay-Z/Kanye collabo yet. Produced by Q-Tip.

Jay Electronica "Shiny Suit Theory" feat. Jay-Z, The-Dream & Charlotte Gainsbourg

I'm sure you know by now, but Jay Electronica has signed to Roc Nation. That means its a lot easier to get Jay-Z to rap on his songs. Here goes the first one. And for bonus Jay Electronica I included the version of "The Announcement" that I jacked from TroyBlog that doesn't have the JFK samples in it.

Here is the latest Kanye joint. I know, I know... all I've been posting is Rap Treats and Kanye joints but fuck it. Kanye, Jay-Z, Charlie Wilson with Curtis Mayfield on the hook and Pete Rock on the beat (and adlibs). Happy G.O.O.D. Friday.

Kanye West feat. Jay-Z, RZA, Pusha T, Swizz Beats & Cyhi The Prynce

Another Good Friday joint, and another banger! Not sure who Cyhi The Prynce is, but I've heard of Jay-Z, RZA, and Pusha T before. They are pretty good. Thank you Kanye.

"So Appalled"

"I showed you your first tec on tour with Large Professor"

Jay Swing — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 16:03:22 -0500

I've always wondered about that Jay-Z line in "Takeover" that calls out Nas for keeping his "tec on the dresser". To refresh your memory it goes "You scribbled in your notepad and created your life/I showed you your first tec on tour with Large Professor/(Me, that’s who!) Then I heard your album bout your tec on the dresser". Thanks to MissInfo via NBC1979 (aka Noah Callanhan-Bever aka the dude who runs Complex) the back story has been unearthed in a very dope Large Professor piece Noah did for XXL back in 2002 (okay, so it was unearthed 8 years ago but I just caught wind of it recently). The story of that Jay-Z/Nas diss is below but I also suggest you click HERE to read the whole Large Pro piece.

Excerpt:

Main Source soon set off on tour, along with the UMCs and Jaz. One particular night of that tour came up recently in the very public catfight between Jay-Z (then Jaz’s hypeman) and Nas (who rolled with Main Source). During a show in Washington D.C. the sound system cut out, forcing the artists to do the same. The angry crowd rushed the stage and chased the rappers back unto their tour bus.

“We were figuring we were gonna have to knuckle down,” explains LP of the incident, which Jay has used to attack Nas. “Jay came outta nowhere, reachin’ in his gym bag like, ‘Don’t even sweat these niggas. I got that.’ He didn’t show [Nas] the gun like, ‘I’m gonna shoot you,’ but we were all just like, ‘Whew!’”

Jay-Z feat. Chris Martin "Most Kingz"

This is why twitter is dope. Green Lantern just unleashed this joint off his upcoming Invasion Radio mixtape (which should be out sometime today) on his twitter page.

Kanye West & Jay-Z "Monster"

Jay Swing — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 02:05:28 -0500

So apparently Jay and Kanye are doing a 5 song album together which is dope, what isn't dope is them putting 2 rappers too many on this song. Nicki Minaj? Are you kidding me? I can't believe people think this chick is actually dope. Anyways, enjoy.

Kanye West feat. Jay-Z "Power" REMIX

Jay Swing — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 11:36:33 -0500

Okay. This is that shit. Kanye and Hov murder this shit, and at the same time give all us DJ's a reason to play Chill Rob G's and Snap's "I Got The Power" again. The Roc is in the building, GOOD Music's in the building. Music like this is the reason I do NationOfMillions... and also the reason I don't post all the bullshit music that every other blog does. That is all.
