Back up to No. 3 on iTunes. The AMAs helped sales.

Did this seriously miss the Grammy deadline by mere days? If it were eligible, I don't see any plausible way this wouldn't snag the Best Rap/Sung Collaboration trophy, but being overshadowed by other records a year from now could easily screw this out of a well-deserved award, if not a nomination altogether.

Yes it did, it wasn't released until 9/11/09, so it'll be up in 2011. I'm sure nothing will cross it's path, this is a guaranteed win for Jay-Z.

That`s so annoying... especially since the deadline has ALWAYS been September 30th... ugh... this surely would have won Best Rap Sung Collabo at the 2010 Grammys. By the time of the 2011 Grammys this will be old.

Has Jay-Z become NYC’s leading man? I remember when I first played Jay’s “Empire State of Mind” back in August and that first guitar lick which laid directly under a solid kick drum automatically separated itself from the rest of the material on “Blueprint 3.” Al Shux, the track’s producer, knew exactly what he was doing.
Well fast forward to November 25, the track hand delivered Hov his first #1 single on Billboard’ Hot 100, it possessed Lil Mama’s irrelevant ass to hop onstage during Hov and A.Keys’ monumental performance at the VMA’s in September, became the official N.Y. Yankees World Series anthem and has everyone from Australia to the Bronx praising the Big Apple.
With that said, MSG.com is letting the people decide whether or not “Empire State of Mind” deserves the accolades of “Unofficial Anthem” status for the city of New York. On December 4th (Hova’s date of birth), MSG will air Jay’s “Answer The Call” concert from September at 10:30pm and then follow up with Frank Sinatra’s, “Frank Sinatra: The Main Event” concert from October 1974.
After the concerts, you can head over to MSG.com to vote if you think Jay’s, “Empire State of Mind” should replace Sinatra’s, “New York, New York” as the Big Apple’s unofficial anthem. King of New York, 50? Riiiiiiiiiiiight. But hey, I still like your aggressive content. *Jay-Z Laugh* Hahhahahahahaha.
THOUGHTS?

This feels like it would have been Top 10 at Pop radio for over a month already. Better late than never I guess.

This is so old it seems like it's a recurrent already.... but it just enters the Pop Top 5 for the first time this week with a steady bullet.

This is below the Top 20 of Pop but wasn't removed as a recurrent. I would have never guessed this was too "new." It seems ancient to me now.
I LOVE this song and always will, but I don't want to hear it anymore. I'll like it again in 2011, but I'll be so burnt out of it in 2010
