That's Jay Dee, who is great. I think a lot of people who dislike Jay-Z are gauging him by the singles. His albums offer a lot more. You can't not hear something in You Must Love Me, Song Cry or the political missive A Ballad For The Fallen Soldier. If you ask ?uestlove of the Roots who he most loved working with, it's not Erykah Badu, Common or D'Angelo, none of them, but Jay, as apparently he was always the most hungry to learn about music and the most honest about his craft. I found that interesting. And his benign approach to the Dangermouse Grey Album episode was interesting. Anyway, I sign off there!
