HOLY SH!T: Jay-Z Is An Illuminati Time Traveler?

May 16th, 2013 James Shotwell

Okay folks, calm down. That headline was meant to be ridiculous and no, we do not believe Jay-Z is a member of the illuminati or an actual time traveler. Everyone knows the Stone Cutters rule the world anyways.

A few years back, actor Nicolas Cage got a nice boost of press coverage when a photo surfaced of a civil war era soldier who bared a striking resemblance to Cage. This image spawned a wealth of knockoff images placing Cage and other notable celebs in various points in history, but then the fad quietly slipped into obscurity (until now, of …

May 6th, 2013 James Shotwell

Just a day after teasing the release of The 20/20 Experience Part 2 Justin Timberlake has announced plans to embark on the ’20/20 Experience World Tour’ later this year.

The XX Stream Their ‘Great Gatsby’ Contribution, “Together”

April 25th, 2013 James Shotwell

Is it possible for another 2013 film to have more hype for its soundtrack than The Great Gatsby?

No, that is a serious question. Is it at all possible? I feel like I can fully commit my love to this film, but maybe there is another seemingly perfect sonic journey awaiting me in another upcoming motion picture I’ve yet to learn about. Either way, with a handful of snippets and couple of full tracks, after today it is safe to say the soundtrack for the upcoming adaptation of The Great Gatsby is going to leave you with your jaw …

STREAM: Common – “Open Letter” (Remix)

April 15th, 2013 Adrian Garza

Common has partnered up with Jay-Z to release a remix of Hova’s latest track, “Open Letter,” which has also been called “Open Letter Pt. II.”

Of all of the tracks for the two to team up on, this one couldn’t be any better with the two spitting rhymes on Jay-Z’s recent controversial Cuba trip and Fox News’ distasteful coverage on Common’s White House spoken word set from 2011, among other things.

Follow the jump to listen to the song.

Jay-Z Returns To Music With “Open Letter”

April 11th, 2013 James Shotwell

Jay-Z hasn’t left the celebrity spotlight in two decades, but the man who gave us Reasonable Doubt in the 90s has been relatively quiet for the better part of the last year. There are many reasons for this, including the birth of his daughter with singer Beyonce (who also recently returned to music), but it’s an absence that has been felt nonetheless.

Well hip hop fans, it’s time to collectively dry our eyes because Hova has returned in glorious fashion with “Open Letter.” Featuring production from Timbaland and Swizz Beatz, the first solo track from Jigga in over a …

The Great Gatsby

The Great Gatsby Soundtrack Revealed

April 4th, 2013 Adrian Garza

After watching the following trailer that’s hit the net today, most viewers would agree with me when I say that The Great Gatsby is shaping up to be one of the biggest summer blockbusters of 2013. Along with a second trailer, info on the film’s soundtrack has been released as well.

Featuring songs by the likes of Jay-Z, Lana Del Rey, Jack White, and Gotye, things are looking to be pretty diverse for this novel-based film. Lana Del Rey’s track, “Young And Beautiful,” will serve as the lead single with a street date of April 23, …

STREAM: Kendrick Lamar “Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe (Remix)” Feat. Jay-Z

March 19th, 2013 Jacob Tender

It’s here. After being previewed at SXSW last week, the official remix for Kendrick Lamar‘s hit “Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe” has reached the Internets.

With Hova on the track and a reworked bridge, the Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City single reaches new heights of hotness.

From the mix, we get two new verses from Kendrick himself, touching on his sophomore effort’s success. Jay-Z preaches on being rich and famous for making rap music. It’s two ends of the rap spectrum on one tune.

Despite what Lamar says in his second verse and in my opinion, he beat out Jay …

Beyonce and Jay-Z’s Financial Records Hacked

March 12th, 2013 Anthony Galasso

Recently, a hacker has been outing the financial records of celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Ashton Kutcher and more. The latest victims of these hacker attacks are none other than Jay-Z and Beyonce Knowles.

According to MediaTakeOut, Jay-Z owes about $800k on the $5.6 million mortgage for his Tribeca penthouse apartment. He also owes roughly $235k on his American Express card and has an old $800 phone bill in collections alone.

Beyonce, on the other hand, has a $30k credit limit on her HSBC credit card and is all paid up on her bills and mortgages.

Justin Timberlake disses Kanye West on Saturday Night Live?

March 11th, 2013 Mike Sacchetti

If you caught Saturday Night Live on March 9, you may not have caught one of the lyric changes Justin Timberlake threw in during his performance of “Suit And Tie.” While performing, Justin Timberlake changed the original lyrics in the second verse from “Shit so sick, got a hit and picked up a habit” to “My hits so sick, got rappers acting dramatic.” The lyric change was a sly yet nationally aired diss directed towards Kanye West’s comments made on February 23 in London, where Kanye West told the concert crowd, “I got love for Hov, but I ain’t …

STREAM: Justin Timberlake – “Suit & Tie” (Dillon Francis Remix)

March 8th, 2013 Dayton O'Connor

The material that electronic music producer Dillon Francis generally doesn’t fall within the scope of what we cover here at Under The Gun Review, but a track that bangs this hard is tough to ignore. Never mind the fact that source material Francis is tweaking is a song we’re big fans of.

Apparently there are a number of admirers of Francis’ rework of Justin Timberlake’s comeback hit “Suit & Tie”, including Timberlake himself. Earlier this week the producer took to Twitter to spread the good word that his remix got the “Official” tag from JT.
