I can't help it...I like Jay-Z

From Rolling Stone:

Why is Jay-Z one of this year’s most fascinating people? Here are five reasons one can deduce from this snippet of Barbara Walters’ interview with Jay-Z for her 10 Most Fascinating People segment.

• He believes hop-hop guys can and should act like adults.
• He understands the code of the street.
• He used to write beats by banging on the kitchen table as a kid.
• When Barbara Walters asks him if Beyonce is “bootylicious” he neither mocks nor smacks her.

I realize there are only 4 reasons there. Rolling Stone writers can't count apparently. Or maybe not mocking Barbara is reason number 4 and not smacking her is reason number 5. Anyway...

Here's the interview.

I love his new song. Here's the AMA performance.
