Rollies: He's saying they have a smooth hack ie insinuating that they're real

Audemars: They're losing time because the diamonds are holding them back...

Rappers, lol

On a side note though, as many know, JayZ has an insane watch collection

You're not supposed to know what it means because it sounds provocative... The lyrics get the people thinking!

It means he has a bunch of Rolex's and AP. The rollies don't tick tock because he isn't wearing them and they are an automatic watch. The audamers are in more current rotation, but are being rotated so they are losing time. Jay-z is rich as f@&$, but too slow to buy one of those super duper multiple winders.

No, no, no, people. It means he has two quartz watches. Consequently, one does not 'tick tock.' The other watch simply needs a battery.

Watch your back Craig, I'm always near when it comes to quartz watches...you wouldn't like anything unfortunate to happen now do you?

Love Jay-Z and watch the throne. Quite a few watch brand mentions on there, wonder if they actually get any free samples? The blogger for our site wrote a post about the Otis video from watch the throne. Jay-z sports a Hublot and mentions it as he shows it off right at the beginning, and Kanye wears a Daytona. With jay-z a huge Audemars fan with his own Royal Oak, our blogger though it was a pretty big deal that he was promoting Hublot in that song lol!

Rolex Music

Artist: Toddy Tee f/ Ice-T, Mix Master Spade
Album: Rhyme Syndicate: Comin' Trough/The Ultimate Collection Vol. 1
Song: I Need a Rolex

[Intro]
If you got the time, I got the time..

[Toddy Tee]
Yo, what's up, man?

[Ice-T]
Yo, what's happenin?

[Toddy Tee]
Man, I went to this party last week, man
This girl cold dissed me, man, cause I didn't have on no gold, man

[Ice-T]
Are you serious man?!
That's tough, tell me what happened

[Verse 1: Toddy Tee]
Went to a party, freaks on the wall
DJs and Emcees and everybody was havin' to ball
And as I walked through the party my mind flipped
I left my gold at home and I tripped
Goupies, skeezers, girls glore
Everybody was movin' the body on the dance floor
Looked on the stage, two guys there were rappin'
Gold around their neck, this DMC stuff is happenin'
Looked to my left, spotted a freak
I mean man.. she looked that good, that I was scared to speak
My homeboys, they begin to brag
Put your money on the table, would you go for my drag?
I said: honey hi!, I wish I was you, so I can make love to me
She said: you serious?
I said: yes, my name is T&T,
She cold dissed me, wouldn't give me respect
No golds on my neck, I need a Rolex

[Hook: Mix Master Spade]
I need a rolex.. I need a rolex..
If you got the time, I got the time..

[Verse 2: Toddy Tee]
That's right, I said Rolex, you heard it my friend
What did it cost? ---> King TEE
Put it like this, I could've bought a Benz
But I said to myself, I need to look up class
I need somethin' that it stand out, somethin' that it last
So I went to Salavix, this saleslady: said what's up?
I said: yo, I need the whole damn hook up
18K, bought a watch and chain
And a necklace with diamonds and grayed with my name
Now, I'm lookin' deaf, ultimately cool and in a mall
I shopped at the and bought me a bunch of dress codes
Gorche and Slacks, I won't wear a Vila, too many people wears that
Now, I'm drapped in my Alligator Shoes
And that's a real, that if you touched them they'll bite you
It's '88, now, I'm rockin' the house
So clear the way to the stage, cause I'm steppin' out

[Hook: Mix Master Spade]
I need a rolex.. I need a rolex..
If you got the time, I got the time..

[Verse 3: Toddy Tee]
Now, I'm back at the party
A week later they let me through the doors
My Alligator Shoes, cause I screwed, the people drool
And the guys in the back are sayin: You're so cool
Now, I'm standin' on stage, hands gripped on the mic
Rolex shinnin' and blindin' them in the light
And as I rocked them and begin to shout
Yo T man, you looked pimped out
So I said: yo thank you, my show is about to over
They said we want more, so I looked over my shoulder
And there she was starin' in my eyes
Ms. material girl, was hypnotized
By my jewelry, I couldn't understand
I knew right then, the Rolex was in command
She said: I love you with all respect
There's no gold on your neck, girl, you need a Rolex

[Hook: Mix Master Spade]
I need a rolex.. I need a rolex..
If you got the time, I got the time..
