New Jay-Z Video, "D.O.A. (Death of Auto-tune)

It's almost a guarantee that "D.O.A.(Death of Auto-tune)" will finish as my favorite hip hop track of this summer. Jay-Z, as we mentioned when the song first premiered sans video, is back to making the type of rap that got him to where he is today. In this video, Hova calls out the rash of auto-tune selections in today's music, and if that wasn't enough, he also eats at an Italian restaurant, plays poker in a back room, and manages to look a bit like Samuel L. Jackson in Pulp Fiction. Thoughts on Jay's new hairstyle? I think he looks a bit younger. In fact, I barely recognized him on the sidelines during the Eastern Conference Finals. Still a bit weird getting used to though. Check out the new video below, and look out for Blueprint 3 on September 11th, out via Roc Nation (like you actually needed that reminder).
