Jigga Please

October 9, 2006 by Marc Lamont Hill

Last week, Jay-Z’s new single, “Show Me What You Got,” was leaked by someone inside of Def Jam. I received a copy from an employee at the record label this weekend and was extremely surprised at the track. After two years of retirement, I expected Jigga to come with something creative, inspired, innovative. Instead, it felt like more of the same old stuff. Listen for yourself and tell me what you think.
