SONG REVIEW: Kanye West & Jay-Z- H.A.M.

Earlier today Kanye leaked the lead single from him and Jay-Z's collaboration album, Watch The Throne, which is set to release on March 1st. He leaked the album artwork sometime last week and had a lot of the online world thinking that the whole album was set to drop on the 11th. I figured it wouldn't, and it didn't, but instead we got the first single and the actual release date so I still feel like we won. I was kind of surprised to see Ye and Jay pick up a Lex Luger beat, so it was interesting to hear the way that they would handle it.

I think a lot of Lex Luger beats sound the same, and this one doesn't really stand out from the rest of his collection, but I do like the way it drops during the chorus. I like Kanye's portion, he drops a typical cocky verse. Some rappers have some of their best verses while gloating, and I think he's one of those rappers. With lines like "Just forget it, you talk it, I live it.", you could tell that Ye was feeling himself on this one. The verse was solid, but I like his part of the chorus a little more. I think he would be a good featured artist for someone rapping over a Lex Luger beat. Jay's verse is in the same context as Kanye's, a lot of gloating and different ways to say that he's living how a lot of rappers just talk. I also like the way he closed it to lead into the chorus similar to how Kanye did. I like the way both of them handled the beat and rapped over it, Lex is known more for working with southern artists so it was good to see two big artists from different regions get a beat from him.

Overall I think this is a good lead single for their album, they both sound good on it and it has big commercial appeal. We'll definitely be hearing it on the radios in the oncoming days/weeks. I can only speak for myself but I'm really looking forward to the release of the rest of the collaboration. How about y'all? Any other producers you'd like to see them work with? Let me know....
