JAY-Z - D.O.A. (Death Of Auto-Tune)

That’s because JayZ had one of jazz music’s best young drum cats on the scene; in case you don’t know. Aka Tony Royster whose father was a jazz great.

First HOV song I heard! I was 10 years old! Went back and listened to his entire discography 🐐

[@WelcomeToThe92503]

Lol...that's crazy. I believe I was just turning 30... and HOV was pretty much if not number 1 on my top 5 list..he was somewhere lingering in the top 5 list.. I remember BEING SUPER HYPED ABOUT THIS SONG WHEN ALL THE BLOGS POSTED IT...and pulling up to my then girlfriend.. now wife's house ......going on about how dope it is.. and that ALL THE EMCEES WERE BACK. This that.... and asking her little brother if he heard the song . He was around 14 or 15 at the time He said NO. THEN I DID SOME MATH IN MY HEAD and then asked him..."DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHO JAY Z IS???" As if I was in disgust at the notion that he might possibly not be familiar with him He then responded..."I think so" "Aaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwww MANNNNNNNNNNNN... cmon dawg. You serious?!?!?!...hova...jay z ... YOU KNOW BIG PIMPIN...HARD KNOCK LIFE???." he responds with a blank stare and I HAD AN EPIPHANY about how lucky I was that my evolution as a man has almost been synonymous with hip hops..and I've been around and been a fan of almost every era..except it's super infant state in the late late 70s. This song was definitely a Moment tho. As was/is most of jays singles when they first drop

2009. What a time to be alive. I was only 14. This record hurt T-Pain and others that were riding the Auto-Tune wave. Even though Pain did it better and can _actually_ sing.

This song is still a classic & it was back when Jay used to let his hair grow out when he was working on a new album. Once he was done recording it, he'd cut his hair.🤴🏽

Am so glad Jay Z is uploading his videos from a central place and making them more accessible. This is one of my favorite videos but before you really had to look hard for it on the internet ...I hope he does the same for the rest including his live performances...
