Empire State of Mind

There's two versions of "Empire State of Mind". The first one is by rapper Jay-Z featuring R&B singer Alicia Keys, released in October 2009. The second version is performed solely by Keys, released in February 2010 for her fourth studio album The Element of Freedom. The solo version, known as "Empire State of Mind (Part II) Broken Down", is used as a background song in Home Soil, the first episode of Manilow Hate. Despite using the solo version by Keys, the title was simply shortened to "Empire State of Mind".
