Moments in Timelessness

Rap Life PLAYLIST ∙  Apple Music Hip-Hop Is JAY-Z’s verse on DJ Khaled’s “GOD DID” one of the best the MC has ever delivered? DJ Khaled certainly thinks so—or that it’s in the conversation at least. The DJ and producer turned music mogul recently said as much in a Complex interview, claiming, “If there was a greatest hits of JAY-Z verses, it’s on there.” It’s a strong opinion to be sure, but it’s also one that all true JAY-Z fans—even the ones he collaborates with—are entitled to. Listen to “GOD DID” on Rap Life, the playlist at the forefront of hip-hop culture today, and you be the judge about where it ranks in Hov’s catalog. This playlist is updated regularly, so if you hear something you like, add it to your library.
