Alicia Keys discusses her World Series live performance of “Empire State of Mind” with Jay Z. Can someone explain to me what the big deal is with this lame track? Do you have to be a New Yorker to understand the hype?

Gotta disagree fly..NY is hot to those who know! I’m straight outta DC (PG now) and I LOVE NY!!! Don’t wanna live there though!
aint she from tx or something? i guess. i dont really care for the song, to be honest. i agree with #1. ny folk are the only one’s who care about this song. and no, i didn’t like that welcome to atlanta bs from luda and jd either. i dont claim sh!t i dont own or have rights to. black people please stop it.
She looks like Mya (yuck!) in that pic.

Not true. I love New York. As Lena Horne said, it makes my heart beat faster!
Uhm I don’t know. Do you have to be a new yorker to love Frank Sinatra New York, NY
Or JD’s Welcome to Atlanta?
Alicia Keys stay on ya knees cause you’s a skeez and Moshanda needs. To kick your behind because when it comes back. you’ll be crying why oh why… Its called Karma baby and it goes around and around.
Lmao sorry about the corny freestyle.
Man I used to love Welcome to Atlanta! I ain’t from there either.
I’m not feelin it either, but I also don’t understand the Jay-Z hype, period. But that’s me.

iscream let me find out u a rapper on the side *side eye*
The top pic is very pretty
I
Empire State of Mind ever since I saw the MTV performance (minus Lil Mama though)
Very Nice-n-Lovely pic of A-Keys …
AND “Welcome to Atlanta” was TIGHT & I LUV that video
u need to ask lil mama wut the hype is…
@point… I KNOW you think Luda only Yells
And that NY song STR8 SUX-AZZ to me also AND it has nothing to do with my feelings for Jiggles (Real…)
Oh I JUST read @Krysi comment… DEAD
Snoop is doing a re-mix to that track – I wonder what it will be like?
I’m from NY, I feel the track, but it ain’t allathat… it kinda loses it’s flair after you’ve heard it about 2-3 times.
MOVING ON!
Oh as for the Hype… that dude that wears the pillowcase on his head – SWAY is his name. He said that that night at the MTV awards was really strange…he said the atmosphere was weird, and compared it to one of Mariannes (True Blood) parties – LOL! And it was worse when Jay came out!
Jay Z AKA Bophet had everyone mesmerized!
It’s a New York thing…my Babe is a New Yorker and she LOVES this song:)
I’m not from NY but I love that song. Ya’ll are really some Jay Z
‘s on here. Wow!
did she say anything about worshiping the debil?
DID anybody say they hated the song because of Jay-Z ???
Sandra needs to ban b*tches from posting when they on they periods and sh*t.
Cosign “I Empire State of Mind ever since I saw the MTV performance (minus Lil Mama though)”
I lived in NYC as a college student at and alot of what he is saying speaks to what I went through and saw friends going through.
@kat – People don’t want to see beyond the Jesus line and that’s cool. Its a great song – I am from Jers and can appreciate it!
Salaams @ RTB and I :cosgin: that minus the B’s though
I’m a New Yorker and couldn’t give two cents about that song. Who cares???? I can’t think of one new song I’m crazy about right now.
WORK BISH! Keep SLAYING and STAYING on your JOB! Gone brush ya shoulder off..get that dirt of ya shoulders!
The song is FIYAH and I am not from NY!
Can’t wait to get Akeys cd next mth!
My fav song out now is Have a baby by me Fiddy and Neyo thats my JAM!!!!
I’m from NY and don’t like the song.
I understand the energy. It’s hard living here the hustle and everything is constantly moving. There is always something to “get into”. There is always a way to make money. And there are more straight men than Atlanta offers since we want to diss cities.
LOl @ CandiApple but that is true, from what I heard 88% of ATL men are How U Doing?
This hooker…
Well being a hooker is an option however not Necessary.
Point, She is from New York.
Do you have to be a New Yorker to understand the hype?

I’m so GLAD somebody else can SPEAK on MY behalf.
@ #39 and #38, Yall are Right On!
Number 38; JayZ is right about, “life begans when the church ends”….JayZ knows so much more than you all think.
And what’s up with Atlanta having sooooo many girly-males??
Alicia Keys will forever be a candidate to be impregnated by The Doc Jam…
And I’m not from New York at all…but that song is simply beautiful. Alicia Keys shines tremendously. Classic.
