Zay Hilfigerrr – Juju On That Beat (TZ Anthem) Ft. Zayion McCalll
Oh Yeah! Walk in the party, and these girls looking at me, skinny jeans even though my head nappy, heyy heyy heyy okayy okayy okayy.Oops, I was just busy in listening to the song. This song literally made me a BIG FAN of it because of its great charming lyrics.Well, the lyrics doesn’t look cool if the music is extracted from the song. I’m literally speechlessbecause the combination of the beats with this perfect lyrics does make a PERFECT SENSE! Personally, I didn’t like two aspects of this song.First one is that I literally didn’t like the way theystarted the song. “Do that one dance baby” was in a quite low pitch and I think that sound is created by some type of computer technology and personally I didn’t like that because these 24 seconds of conversation literally wasted the 24 seconds of the song.Zay Hilfigerrrand Zayion McCall should have included the same rapping right from the start because the rest of the rapping is like a masterpiece for me.I always think that why the thing that looks good and that feels great is small in size and less in quantity (You can take any example for this statement). Same is the case with this song. I think only the 2 minutes of this song are not acceptable. They should have a minimum length of 4-5 minutes. I always have to put this song in my media player and have to set it on auto-repeat manually so that it can repeat after 2 minutes.Usually, we also mention the popularity of the songs in our reviews, so let’s have a look at this dimension as well. The 21,203,173 views up till now clearly show that this song does have some visible space in the hip-hop industry. Well,the official video also has almost 200 thousand likes. Well, the statistics are the real proof of its popularity and fame

Henson, the glue still holding that show together, took to Instagram to express her love forDavido’s latest single, “How Long”, with Tinashe.ANYBODY who knows me know I LOVE MUSIC!!!especially WORLD MUSIC!!! Thank you @tymwallacehair for turning me on to another heater!!!A photo posted by taraji p henson (@tarajiphenson) onOct 30, 2016 at 2:01pm PDTDavido – not one to carry last – quickly took to Instagram and Twitter to thank Taraji and ask for a chance to bring “that African heat” to an episode of the show – and we already know that Cookie Lyon always gets what she wants.With the hype surrounding Empire not anywhere as strong as it was in it’s debut season, injecting the infinitely-hyper Davido could be just the jolt its lacklustre third season needs.Big ups@TherealTaraji..
