The rumor mill has it that Jay-Z is aiming to release the much anticipated The Blueprint 3 on December 2nd, which puts him in competition against 50 Cent, Dr. Dre and Eminem. Anybody else realize that the three artists I just mentioned are from Aftermath? They’re definitely gonna be doing big things. One of the alleged tracks that is suppose to be on The Blueprint 3 is a remix of “Swagga Like Us” which is going to feature Nas, Andre 3000 and Young Jeezy, seriously that remix is going to be ridiculous.
