Business , Man. … Damn.

Diamonds from Sierra Leone (Remix), Kanye West ft. Jay-Z

Unfortunately this post was not ani­mated with CSS3 as orig­i­nally planned. In inves­ti­gating CSS ani­ma­tions, I found out that these type of non-repeating ani­ma­tions aren’t really pos­sible. This is prob­ably a good thing because this kind of ani­ma­tion should be Javascript since it has nothing to do with styles.

Even though the CSS3 didn’t actu­ally make it to the final ver­sion, I did learn how to ani­mate with CSS3 in the process. (The Safari Reference Library was very helpful.) I also learned how to make sexier hor­i­zontal rules to add a little flare (Jay-Z fans might rec­og­nize the Roc symbol).

I guess you could say this is the second in the series of hip-hop lyric posts. It bothers me a little that they feel so sim­ilar, but this lyric was calling for this treat­ment, and who I am to deny it the black, white and red look? You can expect more, so if you enjoyed it… sub­scribe!
