'60 Songs That Explain the '90s': Jay-Z, in the Past Tense
Briefly

Magna Carta Holy Grail....on and on and on. I was working at SPIN magazine when this album came out, and I had to work basically the whole Fourth of July weekend because of Jay-Z. It's possible I'm still pissed about that.
That song, 'D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune),' one of Jay's signature Get Off My Lawn moments, 'Death of Auto-Tune' is on this record, but you can't win 'em all. You see this video from early February, this media demonstration of New York City's new, automated, side-loading garbage truck next to a giant sign reading 'The future of trash is here' and soundtracked by 'Empire State of Mind'
