You’ve probably seen it already. The much-anticipated music video for Kanye West and Jay Z’s “Otis,” featuring Otis Redding, premiered last night across all cable music networks. The artsy “Otis” was directed by Spike Jonze, and it’s being called the video of the year.

@Sandra
Just for contrast to these skinny yt chicks can you post Common’s “Ghetto Dreams”? Your loyal readers would like to see Bria Myles. Possible morning glory?

Happy Friday!! I like the song, but then again, I love Kanye and JayZ so…..
the vid was cliche and kinda disappointed in spike jonze made vids way better than that one. the only thing good about this is otis redding snippet.
good am and ish
OK, I do have something. Anyone notice how when Jay-Z’s part was on, Ye have him respect and stepped back and let him have his camera time BUT AS SOON AS YE’S PART WOULD COME ON, Bubbalip would straight steal his camera time, be it in front of Ye or on the side of Ye (lip singing) Ye’s versus????
JUST SOMETHING I PEEPED!
goes off into the
don’t care for either one of them and never heard the song
morning and what not tho
HEEEEEY LAKES. How you be???? This weekend is my wife’s birthday so we are going to her mom’s for a bbq in the afternoon and then in the evening, our friend has a strip club here and we are shutting down the VIP w/food, alcohol soaked fruit, champagne, etc. etc.
What you doing, Lakes?!
Why they acting like NEW MONEY! this just set them back 10 years! *rolls my eyes*
@TATT OOOOW SKRIP CLUB
UR CHICA IS A LUCKY GIRL 
GOT A DAM CAR NOTE AND STILL HAVE TO BUY MY LIL MAN HIS SCHOOL SH1T SO MAMA WONT DO CHIT FOR A MIN
TELL ME WHY IM HAVING THE HARDEST TIME FINDING HIM JEANS!!! UUGGH!!
EH NO PLANS ON THIS BROKE SH1T THIS WEEKND WELL THE REST OF THIS MONTH MOVING AGAIN
@Tatted
Jay Z ain’t ever did nothing but try to steal shine. From Foxy Brown, to Biggie, to Nas, to Damon Dash, to Beyonce, to Kanye West…
Nigga is a straight duck rider. Who is a fan of Jay Z and why???
mmm kay…I’d rather see the video of Kanye busting his azz on stage the other night
@MAN MORNING
@ Lakes….Yeah, I’m not jealous in that area, plus she has a favorite one we’ve kinda hired to be “attentive” the entire night! LOL – As long as those hoes are not disrespectful, I’m good! We were @ one about a year ago and one had the nerve to say to her “if you tryna spend some money AFTER the club, i’m tryna make some” as if my baby gotta & will buy some puss! I basically told that heffa “be lucky to be getting some ones, that’s the change I don’t want! But as far as buying some puss, she can do that w/me and will @ least get a meal the next morning, now beat it!”
Sorry about the no plans wknd! I have plenty of those, trust me!
@JAZI65
MOOOORNING
:jack:
Just for my fallen ladies:
FeFe
Mirs
Yso
@ MAN, you are sooo right about that! I remember when Ye first came out and he was on 106 & Park and mostly all of Rock-a-Fella was there, including Dame Dash, on the stage w/him while he performed and basically I saw Jay in the cut mean muggin’ him! I talked chit on him for months after that! PLUS, he didn’t even want to sign Ye. He just wanted to keep in doing beats. He didn’t want anyone to be more famous or as famous as he is! UGH!
This song gets me in the mood to slow bubble wine in the corner, could just be Otis Redding. Good morning everyone and Happy Friday, hope those that are sad can smile because our tears always dry on their own.
@TATT NO THE BISH DINT
THAT IS RUDE AS FUK KNOWING DAM WELL SHE WITH U… C I DONT MIND BISHES DANCING ON ME OR THE BOO BUT IF SHE WOULDA POP OUT WITH SOME CHIT LIKE THAT.. WELL I WOULDNT BE ALLOWED BAK IN THAT FUKN SKRIP CLUB “BISH STAY IN UR PLACE HOE AND PICK UP THESE ONES!” 
Looks like they had a ball shooting the video.
I like the song because I love Otis Redding still on the fence about getting the album I may just download this song…..
@ Man… why are you always offering someone something? Especially your not approved FDA moisturizer?
Nobody wanted to sign Ye as an artist. He worked with them Bad Boy producers for a couple of years ghost producing. I’m sure he made it known he wanted to be an artist. Everybody just wanted the beats.
@ Lakes….TRUST WHEN I SAY, I HAVE A MEAN MUGG OUT THIS WORLD & I can be known as a BISH! I’m sweet but I keeps a bish in check! I remember when I thought I had a friend and me, my wife, her & her girl and about 5 or 6 others use to go out to the clubs ALL THE TIME. Dayum near every weekend (I was sooo much younger). Well, her and her girl broke up and it was just me and my wife out. Well, my “supposed friend” comes in and we are all talking, etc. My wife is a pretty good lucking girl to be a stud & she looks over @ me and tells me “you better be lucky you’re my friend” talking about my wife. I FUGGIN’ LOST IT, TRUST! I had to go pray after that because I was a holy terror that night!

gm 
Heard snipets of the album last nite
Morning Folks
Not feelin this song or video
GM Honycoatd. @ Sam, you are right about that! I bet a bunch of them are kicking they ownself in the ass right now, because if anything, he knows how to make himself & you some money!
Good morning Tatted Diva
I loves it… and I agree with Eastpoint vet…. most expensice low buget video ever. Yes the epitome of Sophisticated ignorance!!
Nonetheless, go Jay and Ye!!!!

@Tatted
I’m just saying. I fvcks with Jay. Not so much to not admit that I think his performance on WTT as a whole was disappointing, but to see how much hate the nigga gets for everything that everyone else has done is crazy to me.
Side question: How do I change the default picture? The face is not making me happy.
I will be getting my physical copy of WTT today. I hear they donated the car to aid in the East African drought disaster. Is it still worth anything after they messed it up?
SHOUTS OUT TO FE,YSO & MIRS!!!
@2know
the video is cliche and thats the point. i can imagine spike jonze video pitch was like yall gonna strip down a maybach and make it at go cart and yall gonna be smiling and happy and chit. i think its dope on a simple level
@ Sam, you definitely have a point there and @ one time, no one wanted to sign Jay either.
@ Hony – you click on gravatar, either register or login, download a pick and voila!
Shouts out to YSO, Fefe & MIRS….MISS YOU GUYS!

How old is your pookie? Old Navy is having a jean sale…
It’s Friday.
Who shakin’ somethin’???
@ 2know the ledge, eastpointvet
Piggybacking on the cliche comment, everthing was predictable omg look what they did to that car, why the only have white girls, yada yada yada. Could’ve been a check for a blaq girl but oh well, if that’s how you feel…
Good to see Jay z looking like he had a good time, sorta. Not really used to him trying to steal the spotlight, on some Beyonce chit.
@sam
so you must think kayne performance was underwhelming on the album if you think jay was disappointing. ye outshined jay on 4 out of 16 songs
Good Friday SR fam!
And….Sandra, I too would like a post of Common and Nas’s Ghetto Dreams. Not because of Bria’s cake shots tho.
The beat and flow are hot and Common is def pullin off that scruffy look.

I think mine had one wonk eye with a monocular and a frown or something… I try to never default my pics.

Hell yours look waaaay betta than the one I first got when I started..
I love this video. It reminds me of the Old Jay and Old ‘Ye….Love these guys can’t wait to see them in concert!!!
@WUT HE IS 4 GOING ON 5 SHORT AND HUSKY!! HE DONT GOT A BELLY HE JUST GOT THESE HUUUGE CAB AND THIGHS

Hey East!!!!! (cough)
Laker, hem his pants yourself. Mine is short too and that’s what I have to do.
Recently I have been doing them myself without using a needle.(I am old school and grew up using a needle to make my stuff fir me proper). Singer’s sells a “liquid stitch” at walgreens or cvs about $5 and all you have to do is have little man try the pants on inside out and cuff them to rememeber the spot. Then get scissors and cut the extra jean off spread the glue (which is what it looks like) and let them sit for 24 hours.
Then tada you have custom tailored pants to fit little man.

Oh that’s not a problem girl! Walmart has husky and so does Kohls. Or you just get the jeans that fit the waist and cut, and sew a cute cuff. Get him some cute tees and nice fresh sneaks and he ON! If you can’t sew, some of the little chinese dry cleaners will do them for like $5 buck a piece.

@YALL THANKS IM GOING TO TRY THAT SH1T!
HE IS NOT ONLY SHORT BUT HE THICK LIKE A SOCCER PLAYER THICK LEGS AZZ SO I HAVE TO GET HIM A ZIZE BIGGER THEN TOO DAM LOONG… BUT THE GLUE SOUNDS LIKE IT WILL WORK FOR HIM 
@East
ION know. Ye has more charisma when he says what he says so it just sounds better. Tupac wasn’t the best rapper but he had the presence that commanded attention. On a couple of tracks it sounded like Jay was like a tenth of a second off the beat. I do think lyrically Jay went in on a couple of them and if people heard his verses come out of somebody else’s mouth they’d think the shyt was hard but the Jay hate is at an all time high right now.
Dawn Sheen tweet your boo (in your head) and request our bishes be freed
You know them three ain’t never hurt nobody.
@dawn
hey boo lol
@nhere
did you see the tribe documentary?

I forgot about the liquid stitch that stays put too even when you wash them. I have the opposite problem My little girl is lanky.. When the pants fit around the waist they are too short.. If they fit length wise, they are too big in the waist. She is the belt queen. I had to get creative because I can’t afford to tailor and buy her cute fun belts (waist tailoring is much more expensive)
——————————
Also, as far as cliches go, you never hear anyone say nothing when a backpack rapper does the video in the smokey, riot filled streets that are ALWAYS depicted when they want to show the “revolution that will not be televised”.
Good Morning all,
I’m a Jay fan, & have been since RD,, he hot, spits better than most & he a damn good business man, Jay set the blue print for most of these rappers,luv the song, will b getting cd as soon as I get off.
Loved the video!
The song is just okay…if that…
Video>>>>>Song
Wut, my son is thin in the waist too, which is why I really like the pants/jeans with that “inside belt” you know the elastic that you button to make them fit.
Maybe you can stitch an elastic band in at least her favorites
But remember to cut the elastic shorter than you need so that it will hold or else it’ll be loosey goosey after a minute.
Old navy and Gap outlet have sales going on.
@eastpointvet
It’s opening this weekend in Cincy. Call me crazy it’s about a hour drive but I am there if the storms aren’t too bad this weekend.
I
some Tribe, so far I only heard good things.
@sam
and i think the exact opposite lol. jay got one of the most versatile flows in the game period thats why he still on top at this point in the game. the thing that i think attracts people to ye more is his emotion along the same vein as pac. he cant rap better than jay but in ways his flow is more accessible to people. jay lyrics a little more complex and somebody who not into lyrics wont catch a lot of what jay says passed the surface level. but on a song like who can stop me on WTT ye could do nothing but take a seat and watch his big brother shine
@nhere
yeah its a dope documentary i have seen it about 3 times now. went to the theater with my low end theory shirt on lol.
I am indifferent abt this video
but I like the song
Common and Nas looked GOOD in the ghetto dreams video
Good morning SR Fam
I can’t see the video but the song is growing on me. At first, I was against it, I don’t really like new songs over known classics. Like I still can’t get into that Chris Brown song that’s over the SWV/MJ beat. I always just want to hear the original.

Hey BBW! ION like Chris Brown on the dat song either. I’m still waiting for dat boys voice to change.
@ east I think I’m used to spike interesting vid’s and this to me was the cliche vid. even though I don’t like the song at least thought spike and ye would put together an interesting vid.
oh well C’est la vie
I like Kanyes verses better on #wtt and I have seen Jay fans say the same thing on other sites. Granted I stans for Ye but still
I see Mr. And Mrs Carter is in the building. Yall stay holding down that FIRST spot.
You know who you are…..
this song is so wack.. both of them have done better verses in their prime… Drake would of been more creative i believe wit this old school classic… But im tired of these rappers talkin about how much money they have, where they dining and what cars they driving the ladies around in… OK WE KNOW THAT!
I guess its called growth im more on my R&B flow, Neo soul and more inspirational music.. I enjoy hiphop but this is just a corny song!
drake would have tried to sing and mess up the whole song. hiphop is an artform built on excess and celebration of fame. even though they drop introspection on the album if i wanna hear somebody talk about money and fly chit i want it to be somebody like jay and ye who i know living that life. not somebody who talk about racks on racks on racks and i make more money than them. but believe it or not that serves as inspiration to people.
It’s growing on me…
@eastpointvet…I agree with you about Drake
@Man I just..Kayne really is a GENIUS. Happy Friday : )
Yessss I love this video and the song! Can’t wait to see two of hip hops greatest MCs on one stage!
LOVE Jay Z’s swag…Love this song only because i LOVE that Otis Redding song…
drake would have tried to sing and mess up the whole song – EASTPOINTVET
