Here is new music from Jay-Z featuring the eccentric singer Santogold. I love the song! its catchy and you know I can't help but love a song named after my borough! I could have done without Jay's rendition of a Jamaican accent. There are somethings some artist do well and then there are things artists would do best staying away from; Jamaican accents would definetly qualify as Jay's kryptonite.

I was surprised at the collaboration between him and Santogold. I just can't imagine the two of them sharing similar sounds. He has a thorough hip hop sound with a touch of Cipriani class and she has a rocker meets M.I.A. sound. I guess thats what makes music so beautiful; you can combine opposites and make them one wholesome sound. Check it out!
