Jay-Z, "Oh My God," meanspeed=83.1 beats per minute, meanemotion=Loneliness

Jay-Z released his new album Kingdom Come last week, and we at Meanspeed Music Trust purchased the album in its entirety on iTunes. The second track is called "Oh My God" and was written by Gregg Allman, J. Smith & Shawn Carter and sounds like a sample from Whippin' Post for the Allman Brothers band was used as the harmonic base of Jay-Z's song.

meanspeed=83.1 beats per minute.
