Jay-Z - A Billi (Freestyle)
Artist: Jay-Z
Producer: Bangladesh
Album: Unreleased
Label: Roc Nation/Universal Music Group
The self-proclaimed “Barack Obama of the hood,” Jay-Z, has officially become the billionth rapper to jump on Lil’ Wayne’s A Milli beat and spit a freestyle. Due to the amount of artists who have already tried their hand at the Bangladesh-produced street record, Hova openly notes that he was late to the party and changes up the title to A Billi. Spitting rapid-fire lines about his friendship with Bill Gates, the parallels between Sean Bell and Shawn Carter, and his newly formed Roc Nation label, the ‘East Coast Carter’ proves that he will always have something to say about that “best rapper alive” title that Wayne has casually thrown around the last few years. On that note, Wayne’s C3 album finally drops tomorrow on Cash Money/Universal Motown.

LOL....yeah, I heard this a few hours ago. Jay-Z came off pretty straight. It wasn't as hot as I thought it was about to be, but nevertheless, the Milli Freestyles have to be done now that Jay has laced it...lol. Just put the t-shirt over the mic and retire that! (Not before you check out my version @ http://www.myspace.com/youngsnmixtapes). Dang, just putting in shameless plugs. Shame on me. But yeah, I'll throw this in rotation.

Let the Automac-Rap style spray all day every day Jay'z runnin this Mug. This is a millie remix was perfectly touched up by Jay and not to mention he murderd this track. Stick a fork in this one son...I think it's done. Well Done!

4 give me if I say that my man Jay- sounds rusty on this one. I'm sure he would agree. Much respect either way.

This joint is pure heat right here...I can't understand why some of you feel otherwise. Hov always incorporates current events into his rhymes and unlike Weezy doesn't keep the repetitive mantra of "I'm the greatest" going over and over and over on a track. It was a great move to freestyle over this track and THE SITE IS PURE PIFF NOW. GREAT LOOK

How should I start...When 50 does a track over, r&b or rap..he always makes sure he murders it..If you gone take a lil Wayne track that Wayne already murdered originally, a not do better than the original, then how can you call yourself JAY-Z? Just a question.

I think I should rap over this beat and throw it up on the DJBooth. What do y'all think? In all seriousness, though, Hova has some dope lines here. If this was an original piece of work, my rating would be hire.

Jay-Z is alright on this track but not at his best. It's gettin annoying with so much people doing freestyles like papoose, k dot,jadakiss, jay-z now. This was solid though I cant lie although i think the original with Wayne and cory gunz was the best. I would of added another star to this if the background dude would of said a billie, a billie, a billie instead of a millie. I give it a 3

It's nice. The beat's too damn annoying, though. Coulda done better, I agree. But after so many years, what can ya say? Since he was with Big L and all. Track's nice.

jay-z has the good curse, becuz we expect so much of him we put this down if sumbody like swizz beats said these lyrics we be like yooooo swizz nice now.... but yo about the beat the beat is being used so much because its easy to rhyme to and its about a easy word a milli i could say milli gunz, a milli dollaz, a milli girls its like so easy to rhyme off of, shoot i even wrote a verse for this jawn and it was done in like 10 mins and everrybody said that it was fire becuz i used the flow of the song and thats y it is used so much its so easy to flow to

Jay Z did NOT murder this. Sorry, but I feel Jay is not a good Freestyle-ist. I doubt that this is actually a freestyle.
