Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter has done it again. The classic lyrics the rapper has created over the years continue to dominate pop culture. The most recent example was seen at the 2016 Emmy Awards. When Sterling K. Brown accepted his award for best supporting actor he proclaimed that he’s got the hottest chick in the game wearing his chain.
Jay-Z wrote the lyric to describe Beyoncé. It’s from his 2003 release, The Black Album. It’s amazing to see how influential the rapper has been. The song was a major hit over 10 years ago and every one remembers the lyric like the song was released yesterday!
I Got The Hottest Chick In The Game Wearing My Chain Lyrics |
In the following video, producer, Just Blaze explains how him and Jay-Z created the amazing track:

Fellow Americans, it is with the utmost pride and sincerity that I present this recording as a living testament and recollection of history in the making during our generation
Allow me to re-introduce myself
My name is Hov, OH, H-to-the-O-V
I used to move snowflakes by the O-Z
I guess even back then you can call me
CEO of the R-O-C, Hov!
Fresh out the fryin’ pan into the fire
I be the music biz number one supplier
Flyer than a piece of paper bearin’ my name
Got the hottest chick in the game wearin’ my chain, that’s right
Hov, OH—not D.O.C
But similar to them letters, “No One Can Do it Better”
I check cheddar like a food inspector
My homey Strick told me, “Dude finish your breakfast”
So that’s what I’ma do, take you back to the dude
With the Lexus, fast-forward the jewels and the necklace
Let me tell you dudes what I do to protect this
I shoot at you actors like movie directors {*laughing*}
This ain’t a movie, dog (oh shit)
Now before I finish, let me just say I did not come here to show out, did not come here to impress you. Because to tell you the truth when I leave here I’m GONE!
And I don’t care WHAT you think about me—but just remember, when it hits the fan, brother, whether it’s next year, ten years, twenty years from now, you’ll never be able to say that these brothers lied to you JACK!
Thing ain’t lie
I done came through the block in everything that’s fly
I’m like Che Guevara with bling on, I’m complex
I never claimed to have wings on
Nigga, I get my “by any means” on whenever there’s a drought
Get your umbrellas out because that’s when I brainstorm
You can blame Shawn, but I ain’t invent the game
I just rolled the dice, trying to get some change
And I’d do it twice, ain’t no sense in me
Lying as if I am a different man
And I could blame my environment but
There ain’t no reason why I be buying expensive chains
Hope you don’t think users are the only abusers
Niggas getting high within the game
If you do then, how would you explain?
I’m ten years removed, still the vibe is in my veins
I got a hustler spirit, nigga, period
Check out my hat yo, peep the way I wear it
Check out my swag’ yo, I walk like a ballplayer
No matter where you go, you are what you are player
And you can try to change but that’s just the top layer
Man, you was who you was ‘fore you got here
Only God can judge me, so I’m gone
Either love me, or leave me alone
Now, back to our regularly scheduled program, L’Album Noir: The Black Album
