    Bobby Shmurda hails from Brooklyn, New York and is representing the NEW NY. When I first heard the song, I just knew he was from Chi-Town. He's flow puts me in the mind of Chief Keef but more understandable. I was slightly hesitant to put this video up due to the lyrics and visual. But its my site, why not show love to new talent.The track is super catchy and I dig the dance. Check it out.

    Mannnnnnnnnnn!!!!! I should have been there!! (tears).. Thank God for the internet! Although I wasn't there physically, I'm happy that I was able to see MY ELVIS ROCK the Barclays stage!! Jay-Z is BROOKLYN, and he proved that last night!! SC held down the show solo, but brought out hip-hop legend Big Daddy Kane to join him on stage. That was a good look especially since Kane played a major role in the start of his music career. You know Jay had to rep for his brother Frank White aka B.I.G which was pretty awesome! As I watched I felt BIG's presence, I'm sure he was smiling in heaven- "Like We Did It Brooklyn". Hovie baby also blessed the crowd with a new verse spitting;
    “This is Rich Porter, part two/ You can stunt like that when you’re rich before your debut Money and the murder, rapper or the trapper/ Either way I’m gonna serve ya Shooters on my team… No really, I got shooters on my team Juan or Deron/ How you niggas want it, pick a arm They call me Lucky Lefty…/ Ball so hard I don’t respect the fuckin’ referees.”
    YES!!! Peep the grand opening video below then head inside to peep the rest. Jay-Z is definitely in the HOV lane!!

    Jay-Z's whirlwind through Brooklyn continues. In the same week that the Barclays Center opens to the public, Hov unlocked the doors to his brand new 40/40 Club for the first time on Thursday night.
    The new 40/40, located in the sprawling confines of the Barclays is a unique twist on the Manhattan flagship location. The ambiance is the same, but the new digs are tailor-made for the arena with the Brooklyn Nets hardwood in full view for club patrons.

    "I walked around here earlier and I just seen everybody busy and at work trying to finish up and it was a great feeling," Jay-Z told gathering press as he entered the 40/40 for its grand opening. "A guy stopped me in the hallway and said, 'Man this is a great thing for New York City." And that's what the whole thing was about."
    Rihanna, Angie Martinez, QuestLove and Hov's close friends and family all attended the first party at the eye-popping club. The opening comes just a night before Jigga will christen the Barclays with an inaugural performance on Friday. The multiplatinum rap star will follow with seven more shows.
    The Barclays features 101 luxury suites, four bars and lounge destinations, three clubs and of course Jay-Z's 40/40 Club and Restaurant. There will be eight retail shops as well. In the coming months, the multi-billion dollar complex will not only house the Nets, but also open its doors to an array of artists like Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Green Day and Barbra Streisand. College basketball and boxing events will also bring fans through the door. Not since Ebbets Field, the Major League park which the Dodgers called home until they moved to Los Angeles in the late 1950's, has Brooklyn had an entertainment complex of this magnitude.
