20 Jay-Z Songs You’ve Never Heard

6. Sauce Money Feat. Jay-Z - Face Off 2000

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0nWweY9zAg Despite the fact that Sauce Money was around Jay since the inception of Roc-A-Fella Records, he did not end up releasing an album on the label (though, we€™re assuming he could have if he had wanted to). However, he did (finally) release an album in early 2000 tastefully titled €œMiddle Finger U€. The album was solid enough. The lead singe €œFor My Hustlerz€ is still bound to get a positive reaction out of the average hip-hop head. And yes, Jay did contribute to the album. First on the track Pre-Game (which you€™ll also remember from the Belly soundtrack as well) and on the track Face Off 2000. The song is a sequel of sorts to their previous collaboration off of Jay€™s In My Lifetime album. The song is pretty much what you€™d expect. Money, women and more money.

5. Big Daddy Kane Feat. Scoob, Sauce Money, Shyheim Jay-Z, Ol' Dirty Bastard - Show and Prove

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpMpjrxNhB4 If you're an old-school hip-hop fan then you're probably already familiar with this track. However, we're living in the VH1 "Love & Hip-Hop" era so who knows what these young whippersnappers are listening to nowadays. Show & Prove is a single and posse cut from the Big Daddy Kane 1994 album Daddy's Home. The song was produced by DJ Premier and while the song wasn't a commercial hit it is still considered a classic till this day. The music video contains all the aforementioned seven rappers, as well as Slick Rick (in the beginning), a young Busta Rhymes, and Junior M.A.F.I.A. at an unknown location in what seems to be a New York City park. Jay-Z was unknown at the time but was still able to hold his own among his rap peers effortlessly.
