75% Bad
This is a song where jay-z brags about his money and talks about his mom being a prostitute. Alot Of Sexual Refrenses. The Swearing is not that bad they say the f- word once and say the n-word twice. not as bad as the sexual content. and talking about getting drunk.

Ok....
I think that jay-z is great music. LUV HIM. but he uses sexual content in each of his songs, BRAGS about his money and does what ever he wants to make people grow up to be like him. ask your son if he/she likes jay-z. second, ask him/her if she wants to be rich when she grows up. and last Where Did She Get It From? Just saying that jay-z Can be a horrrrible role model

Language: "N***a I be spiked out/I could trip a referee" "I made you hot n***a" "S**t I made the Yankee hat/more famous than a Yankee can" "But I got a gang of n***as/walking with my clique though" "Afrika bambaataa s**t"
Drinking/Drugs/Smoking: "Corners where we selling rock/home of the hip hop" "MDMA got you feeling like a champion/the city never sleeps better slip you a Ambien"

I purchased this single, and was dissapointed to find I don't particulary like Jay-Z. Alicia Key's had a good voice and rhythm, but Jay-Z was all out of time. Not my favourite rap. Few drug, sex references.

Better than other raps.

i like this song. There only 5 bad words for the whole song, and only these are enough to give it a 14+?

Everyone needs to know that this is normal jay z-whole song is about drugs with language splatterd around. So if your fine with young forever, be expecting something a little worse, this should be Ok too, but if youre not, dont look into this and further.

This song is so good. I only by clean songs so I can't really relate to what most people think about it.

Don't Let Young ones start with Jay-Z
Can't find a fault in the song, but don't let younger kids listen to it because if they do and they happen to like Jay-Z, then they'll start listening to some of his more "explicit" songs.
