I really cannot see what is good about Jay Z. All his songs sound the same to me. Droopy the Dog has more pazzaz to his voice than Jay Z.

I love this song. The VMAs performance was brilliant.
I do agree though that Alicia Keys makes the song.

YAY!
Love it!
:hello:
And I disagree about the Alicia Keys comment, because Jay-Z preformed this on Jonathan Ross without Keys but with another woman singing her part and it was equally as good, if not better.

Yeah the replacement woman was good - but I guess I meant that her part of the song 'makes it', if that makes sense.

I missed that, must have a look on YT. Is she famous or is it like a backing singer filling in?

Didn't recognise her at all.
I think she's probbly just one of his backing singers or something.
She was very good tho.
