Before the official video was released, Jay-Z performed his latest single, "D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune)" on the BET Awards. The song features a shout out/dig? at Drake and Lil Wayne, who performed their Auto-Tuned rap on the show before Jay came out, and the Jay is backed by the band from the video and some special effects footage. He can still really dominate a stage. There's also some weird close-ups on Beyonce, who apparently knows all the words. I get it BET, you want to remind us that Beyonce and Jay are married.

Jay-Z The Blueprint 3 is due out on Sept. 11.
