Jay-Z ft. Swiss Beatz: 'On To The Next One'

Jay-Z ft. Swiss Beatz: 'On To The Next One'

UK. Release on Friday, April 16 2010 
In a recent interview, Jay-Z revealed that his aim for the third and final Blueprint album was, well, to "set the blueprint" for the next phase of his career.

However, after the dream team urban pop collaboration that was 'Run This Town', an anthemic ode to his native New York in the form of 'Empire State Of Mind', and some Mr Hudson-assisted musings on staying 'Young Forever', it's only until now that Jigga's mission for The Blueprint 3 is fully realised.


'On To The Next One' sees him up with Swizz Beatz, who pitches in on vocals as well as fulfilling knob-twiddling duties.

Over pounding beats and a looped vocal sample from Justice's 'D.A.N.C.E', Mr Beyoncé firmly reminds us why he's leader of the hip-hop pack: "N***az stuck on stupid / I gotta keep it movin' / N***az make the same sh*t / Me, I make the Blueprints."

While it may not be his most radio-friendly moment, this certainly proves that Hova has no intention whatsoever of relinquishing his King of Rap crown.

"They were saying they wanted to take it from a different perspective of somebody on the rise. I appreciated that."
