With Hood Billionaire out and fellow MMG member Wale next up (The Album About Nothing drops March 31st; peep "MMG Under God" here) Rozay links up with Jay Z for the "Movin' Bass" visuals. Timbaland laced the track, Jigga laid down a verse, and now we're getting the official video some months later. Interestingly enough Jay ain't even blessing the video, as we find Rozay all alone around a NYC project housing community. Either way, Rick Ross does his thing. Check it out after the jump.
That awkward moment when a track leaks featuring people currently beefing. That's the case here, as MMG representatives Gunplay and Rick Ross go over a Timbaland produced track. Nonetheless, both Gunplay and Rozay hold their own over a complex Timbo beat. Peep "Scuffed Timbs" after the jump.
