Finally, after months of repeated listens and frequent radio plays, one of 20112s hottest singles and QM's favorite songs gets a video. "Niggas in Paris," which HOVA and Weezy notoriously played up to 10 times during last year's Watch The Throne tour, is a momentous proclamation of narcism and excessiveness. The video matches that. Packed with seizure inducing flashes, mirrored performers, and enough models to make Beyonce worried, it's a fulfilling compliment to the much loved song. Definitely worth the wait.

Kanye West and Jay-Z in "N*ggas In Paris" You are now watching The Throne in their long-awaited music video for their smash hit "N*ggas In Paris." Anyone waiting for a lavish clip of Jay-Z and Kanye West balling so hard in Paris is out of luck. Instead, the video shows the two rap kings expending large amounts of swag - and special effects - while rocking the stage during their Watch The Throne tour. In other words, it's pretty much a let down overall, but cool for fans [...]

Get ready for another 6 months of people saying " that shit cray" . Today Hov and Ye drop the visuals to what was arguably the biggest song of last year. Filmed entirely at the Staples Center (no love for Pah-ree??), the video features some crazy kaleidoscope shit, and some pretty ridiculous light effects. And yeah, if you're prone to seizures, please be careful when throwing this video on! You Are Now Watching The Throne [...]

As if the pummeling flow of "Niggas In Paris" wasn't already enough to induce a seizure, The Throne go for the home-run dropping it's nearly unwatchable video companion. Watch above at your own risk.

It has arrived.

Six months after releasing Watch the Throne , Jay-Z and Kanye West have put out a video for the album's chart-topping, overly-played single "Niggas in Paris". The Kanye-directed clip is a kaleidoscope of footage from the duo's tour stop in Los Angeles last December. Watch it below. Now imagine watching this 10 times in a row.

5-1 5. The Throne - "Otis" The two most egotistical cocky fuckers in hip hop show the world how good they are, just flowing off each other flawlessly. Talking about how much shit you have over the menacing Otis Redding sample will easily secure a place in the top 5 songs of the year. 4. Childish Gambino - "Freaks and Geeks" While I definitely enjoyed Donald Glover's hip hop moniker before, it was this song that made truly believe this man has some seriously good rapping talent. Punchline after [...]

Recently, a completely carefree NYC resident had his hater-blockers on and decided to break out in full spazz-mode to recite The Throne's world-conquering single "Niggas In Paris" in its entirety [...]

When we have to look back on 2011, there are a lot of ladies who entertained us. Adele was everywhere, Britney Spears released one of her best albums yet, and Lady Gaga tossed out bizarre yet memorable confections left and right — to name just a few. But did any make quite the same splash as Nicki Minaj? Entertainment Weekly and Billboard don't think so, as both named the recent birthday girl's "Super Bass" 2011's #1 Song Of The Year. Other artists to earn a spot on both lists: Beyonce, The [...]

Of all performers you might expect to take on Jay-Z and Kanye West's Watch The Throne track "Ni**as In Paris," Robin Thicke is not likely the first to come to mind. Yet the "Never Give Up" crooner did just that Friday night during his concert at Los Angeles' Key Club on the Sunset Strip, while also trotting out a number of songs from his latest album Love After War . File this under "Performances we never thought we'd see, but we're glad we did" and watch below. [...]

Well, if you thought this year had been a pretty decent follow up to Ye 's 2010 with his collabo with Jay-Z you'd be right, but it seems the pair are "in a great place creatively" at the moment and want to keep the musical ball rolling. These guys are looking like they want to have an even busier 2012 and in an interview with MTV, Hov hints that 2012 may see another Throne album hit shelves but not before he and Kanye both release solo records too! 3 possible entries for everyone's 2012 end of year [...]

If you couldn't tell from our collection of photos last week, we've covered plenty of live shows over the year. That's why we felt it was unfair to peg one band as the best live act for 2011. It's all about perspective, really. And genre. There's an inordinate wealth of talent out on the road these days. From the arena downtown to the neighborhood bar around the corner, it's a spoil of riches in any metropolis. As the music industry evolves, you're going to see more and more artists in your local concert halls. While not [...]

In an interview with MTV, Jay hints at his plans for 2012.

21. Benjamin Francis Leftwich 'Last Smoke Before The Snowstorm' - 2011's preeminent folk record (from a man). 22. Manchester Orchestra 'Simple Math' - Intense and tranquil all the same. Stunning. 23. You Me at Six 'Sinners Never Sleep' - Boys grow into men for prime pop-punk. [...]

Cray Sorry for the lack of posts. I've been working hard on some good year end stuff for you guys so make sure you stay tuned during finals season. For those of you who were't lucky enough to see the Vicky's fashion show, I can say that is a necessary youtube for anyone who wants to see how the above image of glory actually came to occur.
