Yet, he gave Pharell the :rudy: when he played Allure for him 10 yrs ago, and Allure shyts on all those mchg beats

allure is a sleeper but no doubt one of jay's best songs all around. maybe blue told him to stop 'frontin'.

People go crazy when he performs "Allure".

Saw him to do it on the "Heart of the City" tour. Dope ass lyrics and beat on that one. Definitely classic Hov there. My favorite collabo of his and P's.

In Jay's defense the Allure beat is kinda moist and emotionally tinged. Hard to really lock in on something like that when the producer is all up in your face on some :noah: :noah: :noah:
Plus usually Pharrell gave Jay more groovy type stuff so he wasn't expecting to hear dude play him the theme music to "The Young & The Restless".

It wasn't that Jay thought the beat was weak, it's just that a real n!gga has to take that one home and sit with it for an hour or two before deciding if he can f^ck with it.
