Na na na!!! I'm glad they named it "Otis" because he's all I can really hear throughout most of song biggrin . Was that James Brown thrown in there at the end????

I'll have to listen to this song a few times to actually hear what Jay and Kanye are saying - for real. You can't have Otis AND James on a song and expect to not get overlooked - in my opinion.

I like it.....

Can't listen to it right now, but I'm just wondering who had the best verses, Kanye or Jay-Z. I was gonna immediately assume Kanye did until I remembered that Jay-Z isn't one of those shitty rappers so it could go either way... lol .

I like it, it's okay. I love to hear Kanye over Jay-Z any day...I just think he possesses more creativity than Jay does in his verses. The beat is okay but I think they overkilled on ole' Otis. lol The James Brown bit at the end, I could've done without. shrug

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

It's cool. Sounds like Ye took the track back to his "Blueprint" days. The ending is annoying as hell though. I am expecting more than this from this project.
