Dirt Off Your Shoulder is one of many amazing songs made by JAY Z and Timbaland. "Dirt off Your Shoulder" is the second single released from Jay-Z's 2003 album The Black Album.
In 2004, the song was combined with the Linkin Park single "Lying from You" and released as a single for the mash-up album Collision Course. On April 17, 2008, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama referenced the song in gesture, in response to sharp attacks from his then-rival Hillary Clinton.

A crowd of over 1,000 amassed outside of New York's Trump International Hotel and Tower to show their resistance of the President's administration on Wednesday, March 8. They were organized in solidarity with demonstrations that took place in more than 50 countries, as the world celebrated International Women's Day. Here in the U.S., many of the thousands who congregated in cities across the nation did so under a general strike promoted as a "Day Without a Woman."
School districts in such cities as Virginia and North Carolina were forced to shut down due to the limited staffing the exodus of workers caused. And while the numbers for Wednesday's events didn't come close to the droves who took to the streets the day after Trump's inauguration, the message was as loud and militant as it has been from some vowing to keep women's rights a priority of the administration, and others calling for an ouster of the Commander In Chief. "Hey, hey, ho, ho, Donald Trump has got to go!" echoed from the scores of women packing Columbus Circle. Outside of Trump Tower alone, 13 women were arrested, including the march's co-founder Linda Sarsour, for reportedly refusing to clear the street.
Later on in the evening, over 2,000 people were estimated to have come together downtown in Washington Square Park. A projector shined the phrase "Women's Strike!" onto the arch raising over the park's entrance. Participants held up signs and took in the messages of speakers blaring from a megaphone.
Despite the hostility espoused against him, the President would take to Twitter to honor the occasion, writing, “tremendous respect for women and the many roles they serve that are vital to the fabric of our society and our economy.” Former President Barack Obama also shared words of solidarity, releasing a statement that read: "On International Women’s Day, @MichelleObama and I are inspired by all of you who embrace your power to drive change."
I don't what it is about celebrities wearing yellow dresses, but stars love dressing up to show off at the Golden Globe and award shows. For another round of Celebrity Match Ups it's iconic yellow dress round with Jennifer Lopez and Alicia Keys.
Alicia Keys slipped out of her stunning lavender gown to change into an equally vibrant yellow dress for the Vanity Fair Oscar party while J.Lo brightened up the red carpet in a vibrant yellow ensemble, a blonde bob cut and fresh dewy makeup.
Here is a little about the two and why they like yellow.
The Secret Service said late Friday night that the man who jumped the fence did make it into the White House. The Secret Service identified the man as 42-year-old Omar Gonzalez of Texas. Gonzalez was taken to George Washington Medical Center for evaluation.
“The incident is under investigation and the U.S.S.S. will review the response, to make sure proper protocol was followed.” The First Family was not inside the White House at the time. A man made it very close to the front door of the White House Friday night, forcing a partial evacuation of the building.
According to witnesses, a man was seen running across the North Lawn of the White House. It happened just minutes after President Barack Obama and his daughters left for Camp David.

Is the world ready for the next Presidential running. Hillary Clinton gave a possible hint about maybe emarking on another presidential run. On behalf of America, I am answering. Hillary Rodham Clinton, I beg you: Please run again.
This prohibits former Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama from being elected president again. However, former presidents Jimmy Carter and George H. W. Bush (both nonagenarians ), having each served a single term as president, are not constitutionally prohibited from being elected to another term in the 2020 election.
Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton during an event over the weekend left the door open to a possible 2020 run, saying that even though she doesn't want to run, "I'd like to be president."
Clinton went on to say that "there’s going to be so much work to be done" after a Democrat "hopefully" wins the next presidential election.
"The work would be work that I feel very well prepared for having been in the Senate for eight years, having been a diplomat in the State Department," she said, listing off the qualifications that she often touted during her previous run.
She added that she's not going to think about a possible run until after the upcoming midterm elections. Hillary loss the previous race to Donald Trump.
