During this time, a beef started between Jay Z and Jayo Felony for unknown reasons. It's been speculated that it may have been due to Jayo being released from the label (label politics). According to an MTV News article., Jayo took offense to Jay Z's perceived insulting of the West Coast hip hop scene and his arrogance. Jay Z also apparently attempted to get the song from getting released.[1]
Allegedly, a music video was released and aired on MTV or BET once. It's unknown why it was essentially banned, but it's been speculated Def Jam Records got it off the air.
