Can't Knock The Hustle
I thought it was odd that 60 Minutes II would do a segment about Jigga. Maybe the release of 8 Mile let them to look for the so-called "King of Rap". And the piece smacks of shameless self-promotion, but, the fact remains, that Jay-Z has put out a new album every 8 months for the last 6 years, and Roc-A-Fella is probably the biggest vanity label in the industry. The amount of money they generate (somewhere around a half a billion dollars through records, movies, and clothes) definitely makes it worth studying.
