New Music: Jay-Z releases, "Open Letter" - Response to Cuba Trip Criticism [Listen]

Bwahaha!

Here's a little background:

Jay-Z and wife Beyonce caused media outrage earlier this week when they were spotted vacationing in Cuba for their 5th wedding anniversary. So much so, a couple of Capital Hill's finest have spoken out in opposition, stating their trip is against a U.S. Embargo. And now the internet is in a tizzy!

As a result, the Brooklyn Nets co-owner responds in the only way he knows best, through his music. Open Letter sounds like a large LOL. He speaks about his attitude towards politicians, making money with the Nets and his casual relationship with the President: 

"Obama said, 'chill you gon' get me impeached. You don't need this s**t anyway. Chill with me on the beach.'"


Even more hilarious, the topic of Mr. Carter's lyrics were brought up during a White House press conference. (See video on below)


Do you think its appropriate to use lyrics from a song as support for a White House inquiry?

Seems like a good distraction from all the truly important issues going on.

The White House certainly have better things to talk about than this. On top of that, Jay will mostly likely laugh all the way to the bank courtesy of media hoopla.

 If Open Letter burns through the charts, he will stand to make a pretty penny essentially from a diary entry.
