Jay-Z Drops New 'Blueprint 3' Single
Jay-Z brings in Kanye and Rihanna for 'Run This Town.'
Another taste of Jay-Z’s Blueprint 3 has hit the Internet, as tracks from the album slowly trickle in; leading up to the eventually release of the album September 11th of this year. “Run This Town” features Mr. West and Rihanna (heavy on the Rihanna) with a slow tempo beat with some electric guitar scaling. All in all, the track makes us even more excited for the album.
Rihanna takes us off from the start of the track with her beautiful voice. She also performs the hook. Kanye sneaks a verse in at the end. With a trifecta of music superstars such as this, this track kills it. Makes me glad that Drake was ditched for this single, as any sort of change for this track would probably take it down a notch. So far “D.O.A.” and “Run This Town” makes Blueprint 3 drool inducing - weird, because Jay was feeling stale for so long up until recently. “Run This Town” seems like a perfect intro track to the album.
Some other rumored guests for Jay’s soon to be platinum album include Kid Cudi, MGMT, Drake and some others. Also check out this interview for more information on Blueprint 3. Expect a video for “Run This Town” featuring these three high profile stars coming soon. Too not make one would be a sin.
