not just by chance...
Jay-Z is simply following in the steps of so many other artists these days...paying homage to real music via imitating it 4 remember - imitation is the highest form of respect Jay-Z Outkast (Andre 3000) Kylie Britney Spears (just listen to her new CD and last CD!!) Beck Erakah Badu Meshell Moby etc..etc The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.

Imitation is fine - you here it in every artist. Just check out Prince's songs, you can hear everything from James Brown to Parliament to the Beatles even up to Queen... Sometimes subtle, sometimes very obvious imitations... | |
