After a lotta talk of Kanye West & Jay-Z working with Pete Rock, we finally get proof. It wouldn’t surprise me if this track was for Yeezy & Jay-Z’s upcoming collaborative album Watch For The Throne seeing that they the only ones here who get verses (Pete Rock ad-libs while Charlie & Cudi provide hooks and bridge). The Curtis Mayfield sample used here has been used a lot in the past, but it’s still nice to hear all those involved rocking over it.
Sidenote: Looking at the image used for this week’s song, Kanye & I must have similar tastes.
