Jay-Z Shouts Out Axl Rose On Kanye West 'Power' Remix

August 20, 2010
Jay-Z Shouts Out Axl Rose On Kanye West 'Power' RemixJay-Z gives a shout out to Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose on a remix of Kanye West's new single 'Power'.

The rapper appears on the track, which West debuted on his blog earlier today (August 20), alongside Swizz Beatz.

Referring to Rose, Jay-Z raps: “F*ck all these labels, f*ck what everybody wants from you. They're trying to Axl Rose you, welcome to the jungle.”

West goes on the rap about the ongoing war in Iraq during the song, which also features a sample of Snap's 'I've Got The Power'.

'Power' is the first song to be taken from West's as-yet-untitled new studio album, which is due out in November.
