Forgot to post this Rhapsody commercial that Hov made for the Blueprint 3 (which dropped two days ago and is highly dope even though it aint that lyrical and aint that boom bap).

As Jay is wont to do, he reminded me of MJ here, specifically Mike’s “Let Your Game Speak” commercial that knocked it out the park with a somewhat similar endeavor in recreating classic and engendering kickass nostalgia.

So many parallels between these two undisputed G.O.A.T.s of their crafts.
