December 4th is a special day in Hip Hop. It marks the birthday of Shawn Carter…or as we would call him…Jay-Z. Some call him Hov…some call him Jigga…and some call him Mr. Beyonce *growls*. Overall, we can’t deny the impact Jay-Z has had in the Hip Hop culture…and listen…the music he’s given us isn’t up for any discussions.
It’s been endless conversations about Hov in the MPN Headquarters, so in respects to Jay-Z, we have some throwback content. First up is a DJ mix Mr. Al Pete did some years ago. Second, Mr. Al Pete and Smell Good Family boss Dedrick Hicks, Jr. have a dope podcast show about How’s recent stellar verse from DJ Khaled’s album GOD DID.
After you check these pieces out, spin some of Jay’s music for the culture!
