Contrary to what you’ve heard, Young Jeezyhas no plans to appear on Bill O’Reilly. In fact, he simply addressed the talk show host in a new verse. Check it out in the “My President is Black” Remix with Jay-Z AND Jeezy below:
Jay-Z put it DOWN in his My President is Black remix that he performed live during Young Jeezy’s Presidential Status Inauguration Ball Sunday night. A few lil birdies finally sent me the link for the song so I’d thought I’d share it with you guys.
Jay-Z is hot on the campaign trail for Barack Obama. Saturday (Nov. 1st), Jay paid a visit to Virginia Union College in Richmond, Virgina where he gave an emotional speech about the importance of this year’s election. Tomorrow will mark a turning point in history. Hopefully, Obama will come out of this race on top, but it’s going to take all of our VOTES to get him there. You can’t sit this one out. VOTE!
While his wifey is hard at work resurrecting her career, Jay-Z recently completed at public service announcement for Democratic Presidential Nominee, Barack Obama in Michigan. Why Michigan you ask? Well…I dunno. Maybe they were the first to ask. Doesn’t really matter what state it is…the message is still the same. VOTE!!
BTW…don’t sleep. Beyonce has been doing some campaigning of her own and her custom-made designer Barack Obama t-shirts are still available!
Jay-Z and Beyonce attended the 2008 New Yorkers For Children Fall Gala last night. Jay’s finally flashing the wedding band and Beyonce was all smiles. Black LOVE is soooo beee-u-tiful!
Fresh off the heels of Kanye’s offical muppet video for “Champion” comes the un-official video for Jay-Z’s “Jockin Jay-Z” from his upcoming Blueprint 3. This song was produced by Kanye West and it’s rumored that the entire project will be his baby.
