What many may not know about Jay-Z's D.O.A.

Many current hip hop fans with their swag on, swag off and stanky leg dances can never really appreciate this song. The beautiful thing about this song is that it pays tribute to The Notorious BIG and takes you back to the “Versace shades: stretch Lexuses” era in hip hop. All throughout the song with Jay-Z saying “Unn” just keeps reminding you of those classic Biggie verses that began with him saying “Unn”. In addition to this, there are quite a few references to Biggie verses.

“Stop your blood clot crying” ( Taken from You’re Nobody Till Somebody Kills you ) “Am might bring back Versace shades” ( Biggie was known for rapping about and wearing Versace shades ) “Biggie vowed to Style on us” ( paraphrased from another Biggie song, don’t remember the exact one ) Damn, I miss Biggie. Love how Jay-Z his keeping his memory alive.
