this mtv unplugged with jay-z is pretty good. jay doesn't have his pals like memph bleek and beans, but... ooh, wait. in kara's words: "... mary?" wow. helen and autumn thought it was terrible though, being bothered by jay's use of a teleprompter. though i didn't mention this at the time, it seems like he might've had to do so in order to have mtv-ready versions of the lyrics.
