- I am so bad with names, once again.
- Jay-Z.
If anyone didn't get that, I'm unfollowing. (laughs)
- (FBE) Today, I'm gonna show you
photos of hip hop artists from the 2000s,
and you're gonna have to name them and name some songs.
How's that gonna be?
- 2000s hip hop. I listened to like 2000s hip hop,
pretty much, like, the big hits, for sure.
- Maybe I know some, but not enough to like,
confidently say I know it.
- I feel like with names and titles,
I'm just so bad, but I'll definitely try.

I definitely think that Jay-Z has set the tone
for current hip hop,
and so many artists nowadays take inspiration.
- Jay-Z.
If anyone didn't get that, I'm unfollowing. (laughs)

People throw around icon like it's just an everyday word,
but when I see Jay-Z, definitely, definitely icon,
definitely an entrepreneur, all of that.
- (FBE) Do you have any like of your own relationship to his music?
Is he a person who you've listened to?
- Definitely know that I've listened to his songs,
but I can't tell you like exact songs.
- I resonate with Jay-Z through Beyonce, and that's it.

- I don't know. (laughs) Probably not.
- 4:44, we got Smile, Story of OJ.
- Brothers in Paris, with Kanye.
We got Run This Town with Rihanna and Kanye.
We got 4:44.

- (FBE) So how was this game?
Was this harder or easier than you thought it would be?
- This was easier than what I thought it would have been.
Because the ones that I got were ones that still have longevity.
- I did better than I thought that I would.
It's like nostalgic for me, so when I was younger,
that was the music that I grew up with.
- It was easier than I thought it would be
in terms of like knowing the artist,
but it was like as hard as I expected
when it came to like thinking of songs,
just like naming things on the spot.
It's a little bit of pressure, you know what I mean?
Like, it's hard! (laughs)
