For those of you who have always wondered, “how would Jay-Z sound on a reggae track?” we here at the DJBooth are proud to answer that question for you! Taking up a majority of the remix to Mavado‘s underground hit, On The Rock, Hova shows off his ability to handle producer Baby G’s powerful low-bass beat with ease. Naturally, the Roc(k) holds a lot of significance in S-Dot’s life; from the drugs he used to sell on the streets to the label with the legacy. Versatility is the sign of a great emcee, so if there was ever any doubt that Jay-Z is the definition of a great MC, On The Rock should create some new believers.

Very interesting to hear Jay paired up with a reggae artist, but damn was I impressed. His flow was really on point with on this track. Movado felt like he was the one actually featured on this song though. Jay outshined him easily, but definitively a great vibe. Any fans of the show The Wire, tell me why Movado looks like the stick-up pro Omar?

Movado is a hot Reggae artist right now coming from under the wing of Bounty Killa! I am happy that Jay-Z didn't try to pull off some fake Rasta accent. He stays in his element and flows nicely on the track. Movado is cool on here. It can go into rotation, but I don't think its a banger or anything!

Man, I enjoyed, Hova murdered this track like no other. Like I have said before anything with Jay is fire. It's The Roc.

I am a huge Jay fan, and he holds his own on this of course. Y'all need to really hear the original though cause this song was already hot before Jay touched the remix. I love the riddim and the other artists on it...Name of the riddim is Mission Riddim.

IM FEELING THE TRACK! "IM NOT ONE FOR INTERNET TRASH TALKING BUT I HAD TO MAKE AN ACCOUNT JUST TO TELL "DA BOSS" BRO ITS ONE THING TO NOT LIKE A TRACK AND LABEL IT AS TRASH BUT TO TALK SHIT ABOUT MOVADO LOOKING LIKE HE JUST CAME OUT THE CRACK HOUSE! FOR ONE YOU DONT KNOW WHAT THAT MAN BEEN THROUGH IN HIS LIFE AND SECOND YOUR IGNORANT ASS WOULD HAVE A LIL MORE RESPECT FOR HIM IF YA EVEN KNEW WHAT HES CONTRIBUTED TO THE REGGAE INDUSTRY!

Movado is the best thing on the market for dance hall music in my opinion This man has a strong American influence. Check out "Dying" he does tupac entire so many tears song on there and you may not even recognize it! This Is a hot track! Jay-Z is what he is! One of the greats!
