CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS:
Does "
inauguration
" rhyme with "
intervention
"? Maybe not,
however
, an intervention of the style-kind is exactly what the homie
Jay-Z
needs. This is troubling on a myriad of levels, particularly because Jay-Z has been
Hip Hop's
leading standard-bearer of all that's well and good with regards to style for over a decade. I will readily admit that, judging from the pictures of him performing alongside
Young Jeezy
jacking the "
My President Is Black
" song @ D.C.'s
Club Love
, I had incorrectly assumed that he'd "
manned up
" and had kicked the horrible outfit habit. These new pictures from the actual inauguration and the star-studded "
Neighborhood Ball
" which followed later that evening have since forced me to revoke
any
temporary praise and immediately pull this nigga's card!
Listen
, as an eclectic hood fellow myself, I can respect and even appreciate a touch of this "
The Huxtables
" meets "
hustler
" aesthetic, but, this "
Revenge Of The Nerds
" trend is getting
waaaaaaaaaay
out of hand and, with Jay-Z's co-signage, I only see things getting worse.
No bueno
.

Yes
, "At Last" indeed.
P.ost S.cript:
Yeah
, Jay-Z's performance was alright, but I've decided to add these additional videos from the
American Music Awards
rivaling inaugural "
Neighborhood Ball
" in the hopes that these pleasant visuals might take some of the edge off anyway ... lol. You're welcome.
You're all welcome
