''Kingdom Come'' is the title track from Jay-Z 's 2006 comeback album, '' Kingdom Come ''. The track's beat was produced by Just Blaze , and uses a chopped-up sample of Rick James 's '80s hit " Super Freak ," which was also sampled in MC Hammer 's hit single " U Can't Touch This ."

References to popular superheroes are made throughout "Kingdom Come." For example, Jay-Z says "The Bruce Wayne of the game, have no fear. When you need me, just throw your Roc signs in the air, yeah" which is a reference to Batman , who's real name is Bruce Wayne. Jay-Z also says "Peter Park Spider-Man , all I do is climb the charts," and "Up in the office you might know him as Clark, but just when you thought the whole world fell apart, I take off the blazer, loosen up my tie, step inside the booth, Superman is alive."


RELEASE HISTORY

It was premiered by page as "Bored" before the album was released and is still up there today. The song was released as a single in March of 2007 , and was the final single release off ''Kingdom Come''.

The Game had released a track entitled "Soundscan" over this instrumental track to diss Lloyd Banks and his poor " Rotten Apple " soundscan appearance.
