THROWBACK THURSDAY: "Otis" ft. Otis Redding by Jay Z and Kanye West

There is no doubt about it, Watch The Throne is a classic album. And on that album one of my faves is "Otis." I like how Jay and Kanye fused an old school artist with Hip Hop. Otis Redding was one of the greats and to use his sample was pretty genius.

I think Kanye and Jay are already rap gods, they will always be on my Top 5 Best Rappers Of All Time list, but unfortunately as of recent years, their relationship has been strained. That's really too bad because I was really hoping to get a Watch The Throne 2, 3, and possibly 4 album. But by the looks of things, that might not happen.
