+

You don't know WHAT the + means on the album cover. It could be "and" or it could be "featured" or it could be something we have never even heard of. So you can't not say its co-billed. Arjoccolenty (talk) 20:16, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So stop changing it back to "featuring" and put in the "+". --Wolfer68 (talk) 10:37, 21 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nas & Billy Joel

Does anyone know if there's any connection between Jay-Z's "Empire State of Mind," Nas's "N.Y. State of Mind" or Billy Joel's "New York State of Mind"? I've listened to Nas's and Jay-Z's. So far it sounds like the song titles are just coincidental, but I thought I'd raise the question in case there is a connection. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Knightablaze (talk • contribs) 00:28, 9 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I would guess that the titles of this song and the Nas song are homage to the Billy Joel (1976) song, but I don't have any reliable sources to verify that. 86.41.33.224 (talk) 13:03, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
