Empire State of Mind" is an anthemic hip hop song with influences of electropop an orchestrapop. It features a sample of " Love on a two way street" by The Moments. The title is a reference to New York's eponym "The Empire State", and may also be a reference to Billy Joel's " New York state of mind". Jay-Z's former rival Nas titled a song from his debut album, Illmatic, "N.Y. State of Mind" in 1994. The song is an anthem to Jay-Z's hometown, New York City. The song also mentions NBA superstars LeBron James and Dwayne Wade and teams New York Kicks and New Jersey Nets. It states that New York is "the home of the hip hop", name checking Afrika Bambaataa, a DJ from the South Bronx, New York who was instrumental in the early development of hip hop throughout the 1970s & 80s.

This video is a similar to the one I and my group want to make as it kind of has the same concept. Its talking about a specific area and uses freeze frame shots in orders to represent different places and objects relating to the song. It is also shot in black and white. In this song the freeze frame shots are used in line with the instrumental we will be aso be doing this.
