I agree that it's got great beats/rhymes/even rock - I can appreciate rock sometimes! - though it's a bit too clumsy/lurchy for me to really really love, but my point isn't that it's bad, it's that...his other songs are so much better, and not exactly lacking in the great beats & rhymes. I can't see any reason why 'Big Pimpin' isn't up in the top 75 as well, for example.
Also it's historical in no context except Glastonbury '08, which in the context of Jay-Z's career isn't really hugely significant.
Fuck people who only watched Jay-Z because they heard about him on the news and then switched off after one song. Fuck them. Idiots.
