BBC: Jay-Z dissing the dollar in "Blue Magic" Video

.

Hey Hip Hop,

I love Jigga as a rapper, but I'm not sure why he named his company "Roc-a-Fella" after fellow New Yorker David Rockefeller and the family that's run the world into the ground for 100 years, including the drug trade.

(See the "Iran-Contra" shoutout in "Blue Magic" for more, where the U.S. government admitted they sold crack to pay for Latin American guerillas.)

I don't know if he's trying to warn us (see: "D'Evils") or not, but I do know he's hella hot and Chamillionaire's not, especially with singles "The Evening News" and "Hip Hop Police" not getting half the Grammy-winning shine he got last year.

Yes Jigga's a far better rapper who says "F--k Bush" once in a while, but still, it's too bad details fail.

(In a New Yorker story he was quoted as saying "I was meeting with Bill Gates, he told me what the world was going to look like in 5 years and I got scared, I'm not getting into it..." too. Crazy.)

Anyway, here's the BBC News story, they have a video clip too. Think whatchoo wanna and I'm not sure myself, but if America goes broke we go broke, they're Canada's biggest customer...

Peace,
BK

Rapper Jay-Z dissing the dollar

Rapper Jay-Z appears to be endorsing the euro

Wads of dollar bills are usually as much a part of rap videos as fast cars, diamond-encrusted jewellery and scantily-clad models.

But in an apparent nod to the low value of the dollar, rapper Jay-Z's new video Blue Magic features another currency.

He is seen cruising the streets of New York in Bentleys and Rolls Royces (now owned by Germany's Volkswagen and BMW) with a briefcase of 500 euro notes.

It follows reports that the supermodel Gisele Bündchen also favours euros.

The catwalk star's twin sister and manager Patricia told Bloomberg in September that: "Contracts starting now are more attractive in euros because we don't know what will happen to the dollar."

The US currency has been ticking off historic lows over the past few months as falling US interest rates make other currencies more attractive.

It recently passed $2.10 to the pound, reached parity with the Canadian dollar and set an all-time record of $1.4752 to the euro.

Other more conventional market-watchers have also been snubbing the dollar, including the billionaire investor Warren Buffett.

There have been no suggestions that Jay-Z's fellow rapper 50 Cent could be considering a move into a different currency.

Cutting Through The Matrix

Beat: AllInTogetherNow by AKS


Sometimes what I find,
Sublime in my mind,
Sometimes what I grind,
Spend time on my mind,
Hey Alan -
Watt’s going on man?
What’s the diff?
Are we just part of the plan?
Part of the scam?
Ham and cheese it up?
Or get down on our knees?
Bow down and look up?
Throw down?
Or give up?
Live it up today?
‘Til we cryin’?
‘Cause we dyin’?
From what they spray?
Grab an AK?
And spray all day?
Or just throw away a day on a J?
Still a day anyway?
Any way you slice it,
They can dice it up,
Any way you play it,
Roll the dice or give up,
Any way to see,
Is all we get to see,
So may as well play,
With you and me,
So may as well play,
In the world we won,
One world for each one,
Once we’re done…

‘Cause we’re -


(Chorus)

Cutting Through The Matrix,
Mind just play tricks,
Grind away a day,
‘Til I’m flyin’ in The Matrix,
We’ve all seen The Matrix,
Brain chip, play tricks,
Cut Through The Matrix,
They can’t just play tricks…

(x2)


Minds playin’ tricks on me,
Watchin’ flicks all week,
Getting weak,
And forgetting how to speak,
How to seek and find,
A kind mind of mine,
Or yours,
Take tours,
Of the world I find,
On DVD,
Old TV’s in style,
Forgot how to smile,
Remember for a while,
For a while had a chance,
Danced the Devil’s romance,
To advance the cause,
Pause, rewind and get yours,
Or sit back and say:
“He shoots he scores!”
But who’s he?
And why aren’t you gettin’ yours?
In the cheering section,
Hard to get erections,
Unnatural selection’s making sure,
We wait for the elections,
Interjections are brief,
So I’m a thief in time,
Injections a crime,
Find relief in rhyme,
Find grief in wasting,
Time, women and song,
I’m not saying it’s wrong,
I’m just saying stay strong…

‘Cause we’re -


(Chorus)

Cutting Through The Matrix,
Mind just play tricks,
Grind away a day,
‘Til I’m flyin’ in The Matrix,
We’ve all seen The Matrix,
Brain chip, play tricks,
Cut Through The Matrix,
They can’t just play tricks…

(x2)


Left-Right,
March to a different drummer,
Better to be different than dumber,
And get hit by a Hummer,
Full of black-clad, kids,
When the next fad, hits,
Feelin’ bad ‘cause your last job,
Didn’t pay tips,
Feelin’ mad enough at who?
NAUseless eaters zoo?
Monkeys throwin’ poo?
Aim up and follow through,
At the same eye,
Starin’ from the dollar bill,
Tell me, what’s a dollar still?
Once you’ve O.D.’d?
On them Red Pills?
Chills, up my spine,
When we’ve seen the lyin’ before,
We’re still tryin’ to forget the war,
Over there, here,
Bombs’n’tears, switch gears,
For flashmobs of fear?
Got a better idea?
Get a better gear than first,
Principles, we thirst,
For the truth, tell the youth,
They growin’ up feelin’ cursed,
We throwin’ up our blood’n’guts and goals,
So get a goal or get cold,
And stop doing what you’re sold…

‘Cause we’re -


(Chorus)

Cutting Through The Matrix,
Mind just play tricks,
Grind away a day,
‘Til I’m flyin’ in The Matrix,
We’ve all seen The Matrix,
Brain chip, play tricks,
Cut Through The Matrix,
They can’t just play tricks…
