Jay-Z – Run This Town (ft. Kanye West, Rihanna)

Jay Z   Run This Town (ft. Kanye West, Rihanna) listen
Jay-Z has been hitting the news rounds quite a lot lately. First came the “Death of Autotune,” then an All Points West headlining spot (Jay-Z replaced the Beastie Boys because one of their members has been diagnosed with cancer. Get well soon!). Also, an interview will Billboard shed light on an upcoming collaboration with MGMT.

And now, the official second single off Jay’s The Blueprint 3, has hit iTunes and select radio stations. “Run This Town” features Rihanna on a live-giving hook and Kanye West assisting his big brother, doing what he does best. With a roster like this one, did I have high expectations? Yes. Does the song live up to the hype? Probably not. But it’s a nice track, nonetheless.

  9. clays girl

    All u people r wrong. Rihanna is an excelent singer and u guys r just trying to bull shit her 2 make ur self feel good but u guys r just messing around with shit. FUK UP ALL U IDIOTS

    I dont understand why people like Da Best Bitch ever dont realize that Rihanna CAN’T sing very well at all, just look at any youtube video of her live, she can’t hit ANY high notes, her singing is a joke. Shes just a pretty marketable package.

  11. i really enjoy this song. first listen, i thought it was ok. but it grew on me after a couple more listens.

  12. Alphableat

    Rihanna delivers the best part of the song. It’s really very good.

  13. gbaby

    “im just trying to change the color of your mood ring”
    how can you go wrong with that?

  14. lp

    is it sad that ive racked up almost 24 listens on the cudi snippet in my itunes?….how sad haha. it definitely reminds me of bep’s “i gotta feeling”… only its actually good, haha.

  15. Dru

    Oh man, Rihanna fricking slaughtered that track. She is actually wailing like a dying animal. Sigh. What happened to the opitime of Good Girl Gone Bad? EH? I am saddened. At least I still has the Blueprint to loop .

    And the Snippet sounds BEAUTFUL. CuDi is going to keeeel it with his debut.

  16. naeem

    the track is straight, can’t wait until we hear more from blueprint III.

    also, the snippet lp posted is veryyyyy good. cudi is going to kill it with his debut, thanks for the snippet.

  17. lp

    this song was my jam… until i stumbled upon the new kid cudi clip floating around. holy shit this song is going to BLOW UP! i can’t stop listening to the damn snippet!! find me the full version luis!! please?

  18. anon!

    hah, i’m actually inclined to agree with “Da Best Bitch Everrx3″ (although i probably would have phrased my opinion a little differently).

    i think it’s pretty good! also, i like rihanna’s part…

  19. South

    Not a fan. I would say it might grow on me, but as of now it doesnt seem likely

  20. Da Best Bitch Everrx3

    Ya need to shut the fuck up !… This is a qreat ass sonq. Matter of facrt i like Rihanna’s part the best. Ya niqqa’s dnt know shit about qood music . Ya some dumb fuckersss !!!

  21. jeramimi

    i have this on repeat, agree riri coulda gone harder though

  22. @DeezyG

    “Ruins” might be too harsh, but agreed

  23. DopeBoyFresh

    Rhianna’s moaning basically ruins what could’ve been a good song.

    • You know what, I was about to say that… but I decided it was too harsh. Her hook could have been great (read: “Live Your Life”), but it was really lacking here.
