Hot take: "Sunshine" by Jay-Z was fine and got an unnecessarily bad rap. Actually holds up better now than it did then.

Looking back on this, I realize that it was the attempt at the Diddy effect that made us criticize this video and single as fans. Be clear, I always enjoyed this song and this album. 3 of my fav Jay-Z songs are on Vol. 1. twitter.com/WillWashington…

@bryanmichaelcox Shit aged beautifully I've always loved this joint

@bryanmichaelcox Man I am a sucker for any track with the Rockin It sample ❤️ 3LW - More than friends is *chefs kiss*

@bryanmichaelcox Not really even the Diddy effect, moreso the Nas If I Ruled/Street Dreams Hype Williams video rollout; it worked for RD for CKTH

@bryanmichaelcox What are your 3 favorite Jay-Z song Bryan?

@bryanmichaelcox @MatthewACherry Same. Where I’m from. Imaginary players. Friend or for ‘98. Face Off. Who ya Wit. I even like What Girls Like. My fave Jay album.
