Big Sean feat. Kendrick Lamar x Jay Electronica – “Control”
August 13, 2013
This is the song that damn near shut the internet down last night & STILL has people talking today. This “Control” joint produced by NO I.D. was supposed to appear on Big Sean’s upcoming “Hall Of Fame” album but it was allegedly pulled due to sample clearance issues. I feel Big Sean & Jay Electronica did a decent job, but it’s extremely clear that Kendrick Lamar bodied this joint something terrible. Just what the game needed.

New Video: Jay Electronica – ‘Dimethyltryptamine’
May 1, 2011
Jay Electronica doing the smart move of reintroducing fans to visuals of songs that have been released already & breathing new life into them with brand new videos. This video is kinda ill too! The video was shot in Kathmandu Nepal in the fall of 2009. This chess strategy makes sense to me for an artist like Jay Electronica who’s obviously the most anticipated artist to release a brand new album. Whether consciously planned or unplanned, its a winning strategy in my opinion of continuing to perfect the first official album while giving the fans new looks on previously released material. I can dig it. …..By the way….this is another J Dilla Dilla Beats Beats Beats
