The History Of Jay-Z’s “Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem)
Posted by mdavis on Mar.11, 2010, under Entertainment
Jay-Z’s “Hard Knock Life” was a genius song when it came out due to the contrast between the sample (hook) used and the current subject matter that he was communicating. That subject matter was his life prior to music super stardom in the Marcy projects of Brooklyn. Check out this two part video from a Swedish documentary featuring the people who made this possible, including the DJ who made the track, 45 King.
