The long-awaited Dr. Dre and Jay-Z song: as gay as a three-dollar bill
At least a decade late, and long ago forgotten, aging rappers Dr. Dre and Jay Z finally release that “epic” single. I’m going to let my blog brethren Byron Crawford say it since he listened to the track and I didn’t:
I guess it makes sense that if Jay-Z can’t write good raps for himself anymore, he can’t write good raps for anyone else.
The production is crap, too. Jimmy Iovine must have told Dr. Dre that if he wanted to sell any albums in 2K10, he had to make it all teh ghey and futuristic-sounding. Maybe techno-style synthesizers sound especially good in Beats by Dr. Dre headphones.
If only he really had looped up the Queen and David Bowie record.
My old friend and former colleague eskay has it streaming. It’s got some dreaded n-word screaming over it, but there wasn’t much enjoyment to ruin in the first place.

DANG! I’m at the gig! No speakers….how is it everyone?
jay killed his verse but this is not the mastered finished version
I am glad I clicked on the comments link, because I was getting ready to asked was “Gay As A Three Dollar Bill” the name of the song.
@ Tyzgurl
How you going to do my folk Dora like that
WOW this just hit all the blogs at same time….. its not a finished song, but yeah its not that good. jayz never disappoints me though.
Jay verse was tight! And I’m so ready for the futuristic sounds to go. I blame Kelly Rowland.
It was terrible. Why is Dre working with Jay Z again?
you mean why is jayz working with dr dre again
I blame Beyonce for this shyt
@Ebony
Lmao. I didn’t do it!!! I swear…I love Dora too. This was actually a part of an article I was reading regarding immigration issues.
@SPONGE BOB FAN
“you mean why is jayz working with dr dre again”
______________________________________________________________________________
No, why is Dre working with Jay Z. Maybe Jay pizzed off Kanye and was tryin to find someone else to live off of.
@Man, Jay-z wrote songs for Dre’s Chronic 2000 album. And he’s a star in his own right.
@Man
I co-sign I clicked the x in the upper right corner at .25…smdh
The song is alright, but not as bad as Ne-yo’s “Beautiful Monster.” Or Nicki Minaj’s new song.

LMAO; Kelly is probably happy to be blamed for something…anything…musical.
If they’re so old, washed up, and irrelevant why posting on it?

That “Beautiful Monster” track was absolute garbage. The label kept emailing it to me hoping I would post it. But they forget to send the check.
The long-awaited Dr. Dre and Jay-Z song: as gay as a three-dollar bill
but gay or straight they have enough money to make a $3 bill!!!
________________
OK… Jay Z did say some things but I had to play it three times to hear it because i could not get past the sorry beats!!! EPIC FAIL!!!
@ Sandra,
I can’t wait for this electro-techno-disco-dance mess to end. But it probably won’t cuz they’re making a ton of money.
I don’t even like the idea of Dre and Jigga working together in the first place. What happened to good music?
I started to listen but had to stop & remind myself that this is the unfinished version
Jay is not the problem it is the beat. Dre needs to do better than that
@Cinderalla did you see my Miss Sophia comment to you the other day I love shim and will miss shim on V103 #teamMissSophia
@topic Jays verse was decent/straight I have heard better from him
That Ne yo track was so WACK and I
Ne yos music I hope that was a demo for somebody else cause that is 
what I have been waiting on from him
@ Daisy, Miss/Mr Sophia comments on SR?
I actually like the beat…but I also wouldn’t mind hearing a remake of “Planet Rock” by Afrika Bambaataa & the Soulsonic Force.
@Daisy
team mr/ms sophia
lol @ sandra saying they forgot to send the check
i really wanna know if thats the real song title because that title makes no sense and make them look gay
Um dont care about the topic.
Gravi check
It didn’t sound bad at all Sandra. It didn’t make me get up but I did wait until I had finished checking my back accout before I turned it off
It’s Mama H-Townmama!! Is that what it is supposed to be?
Jay is not the problem it is the beat. Dre needs to do better than that
_______________________________________________________________________________
Jay is always the problem.
Hey Gyps! Yes ma’am!!! That’s my mommy. She just turned 48 last Tuesday!!! I felt inspired to post her after the Gabby post. LOL
How are you ma’am? How’s the new job coming? How’s the babies?
@Man-What do you like? You seem so negative. Not coming at you but I have never e-met such a negative man in my life. Sit on mama’s couch and let me know what’s really going on because damn!!! What makes you happy? Sending rainbows and sunshine your way!!
All is well with us. Job is going good. Just tired a little. School and work is kicking azz but that’s what I chose. I hope the girls are doing well.
Mom
It isn’t my favorite and I have heard much better from Jay, but it does beat anything coming from Whacka Flacka or Akon. I am not a Dre fan at all though, and I live in Cali.
I hear you. Im back in school as well now. What are you going for? Im going home this weekend for a surprise party for my pa-pa and Im going to take her shopping for her b-day gift.
Long Awaited??? By who???
When will this old azz camel retire for real???
Heyyy yall!!!!
Why can’t yall just let Jay be great? Who do yall think wrote Dre’s coldest versus? Jay been ghostwriting for Dre.
Mirs – if Jay has to retire then so does Dre since he’s OLDER than Jay
I was in taking regular college courses but switched over to take sonography. The older I get the more impatient I get.
what did I do? @ Shauny
@EPV, I knew someone other than me had to catch that this was not the final cut of this. ok. i can leave back out now. and i like it.
Umm totally off topic, but I think my baby thinks she is Shakira because she has started dancing and shaking her hips like a grown woman. Mind you she is only one and I dont allow them to watch music videos, nor do I dance provacative in front of them.
@MIRS MOMMY
“When will this old azz camel retire for real??? ”

@ Mirsmommy thanks
going to look for it right now!
Why would her mother allow him to live there? Child or not!
I wasn’t thinking about having a boyfriend at 10! I was too busy playing with my Barbie townhouse and chit. I still thought boys were kinda gross at that age. So she had the baby at 11? Jesus Take The Wheel. Reading this article is great birth control for me. By the time I have kids they will be
at 7!? 
Maya_Marie says:

________________________________________________________________
The same reason her lil young azz got pregnant at 11. I’m glad the girl is okay, but that situation is one big mess.
Jay can do no wrong in my eyes, never been a huge fan of Dre’s tho
@ Mirsmommy
I’m willing to bet my mortgage she will be pregnant again before she turns 16. The little boy, the baby daddy, is on the run. This is some crazy stuff.
I dont wanna listen if it’s not finished plus I can’t stand Jay so no comment on the topic
@Mirs I’ve gotta go find that article because that mess is crazy. I
for the younger generation cause something just isn’t right
Uhhhhh is that for real? Is that what we’ve been waiting 10 years for?
MAD!
Two thumbs DOWN…..I haven’t liked Jay Z since the Black Album….I’ve always been a Nas fan though
no one heard of the transeuro express???? it’s been sampled in hip hop a lot. And!! this track is dope bc dre chopped it up like i never heard before. btw, this is jay’s second time rhyming on this that i know of. the first was when he rhymed over the original. i wanna say it was w mop, but i forget.
I like both Dre and Jay and I liked it!
Seriously! Maybe it’s one of those “it will grow on you” songs.
