I gotta, let you niggaz know the time like Movado/My motto, stack rocks like Colorado

/Auto off the champagne, Cristal by the bottle

Dont expect to hear Jigga utter those exact bars at his performance this Sunday at New Yorks Radio City Music Hall. As previously reported here at DX, Jay will celebrate the 10th anniversary of his seminal debut Reasonable Doubt with a performance at the legendary hall. But with all that has transpired with Cristal and the racist remarks by exec Federic Rouzard, Jay will no longer be name dropping the pricey champagne.


Jay-Z spokesman Ron Berkowitz said: "You can bet that Cristal will not be in Jay's lyrics on Sunday. What will replace it, only he knows at the time, because he rhymes on the fly - so don't be surprised to hear something different."


Jay-Z names Cristal in four songs on Reasonable Doubt, including Cant Knock The Hustle, Feelin It, Dead Presidents and the Biggie collab Brooklyns Finest.

In other Jay news, he will be headed on an international tour this fall that will span from Ireland to Russia and through Africa. Peep the flyer here: http://www.universalnewmediatools.com/flashmatt/jayz.gif
