New Video: Jay-Z – ‘Empire State Of Mind (ft. Alicia Keys)’

Published: Friday 30th Oct 2009 by Trent

Literally moments ago, Hip-Hop superstar Jay-Z released the video for his smash hit single ‘Empire State of Mind’ off his #1 album ‘The Blueprint 3′. The highly anticipated clip features R&B songstress Alicia Keys.

I love it. The video captures all of the best images of NYC and the black and white effect gives it a very ‘epic’ feel. Although the song has yet to grow on some people, I personally really like it and I can’t think of a better way to translate the energy of the record onto the screen. Like him or not, Jay-Z continues to redefine himself as the #1 Hip-Hop artist time and again. Yup!

What do you think of the video?

    Two days ago you said: “As mentioned in previous posts, I’m not as big on the song as everyone else seems to be”

    Now it’s: “personally really like it”

    What a difference 48hrs makes…
