+++OFFICIAL JAY Z THREAD+++

[flipnlu]

The problem many seem to have is expecting let it be what it is. Different perspective and vantage point some may not be ready but soon.

 

[andoneflip]

Production is on point album of the year

 

[kickstart]

All I know is Jay Electronica said he got next.

 

[tyonenine]

I think bound 2 and blood on the leaves are better than most of these songs.

Just saw this while checking out some reviews online. And for those who missed it when I posted it earlier:

 

[phillysuge2k13]

why is jay still making albums?

 

[thunderchunk69]

Yet another underwhelming Jay-Z Nas collab. I wonder if they will ever make a good song together.

it's Nas, he sucks when you need him.

he only has the spark on "theme" tracks.

 

[trilluminated]

hearing that MCHG at the strip club in ATL.. -

hov >> kanye >> me >> God >> the Pope

 

[stillin729]

I've never been a Jay Z Stan nor hater but this album is pretty damn amazing

 

[krazy88s]

to me this the first nas verse where he lackluster, look at the the song, nas aint no BBC type dude

 

[gllahone84]

I'm on the verge of never wanting to hear these dudes on the same track again. 

Nas came harder on the carter iv, and if he wasn't feeling the beat why jump on it?

You're better than that Nas.

that Timbo interview is dope. he very well might be the best producer in the game right now, no questions asked. other producers should take notice like Dr. Dre. he's reinvented himself and made himself hot as ever before. from 20/20 Experience to this album, and now he's got 20/20 Experience 2 dropping soon. damn

 

[theboxstacker]

My biggest gripe about the album is Timbo & Co. not letting Mike Will shine. Tim probably heard that track & got all kinds of shook and got Jay to cut the verse short.

 

[216301baller]

Lol you think tim really got pull like that

Timbo is better than Mike Will, and always will be

 

[Remy LeBeau]

The album is cool but not amazing at all. It didn't really pick up for me till track 5 (Oceans) and that's when it became enjoyable until "Versus" and "Part 2" but "Beach is Better" (too short) and "BBC" are cool. I personally don't really see the replay value unless it bumps in the whip.

Side Note:
"Reeboks on...I just do it"

 

[216301baller]

Oceans sounds like some ish you would hear in a secret agent movie or is just me

 

[theboxstacker]

If you watched the interview posted earlier, he basically explains his role and how he oversaw the majority of the production, and I would assume the general direction of the album also. And yes, production wise Tim has major pull, dude has had his name on every JT track for the last 2 albums, you don't think other major producers were trying to get work to JT? And I say "had his name" on every track because it was obvious that Danja handled the majority of the production on FSLS. Timbo is in just about every studio pic taken during the making of this album, including Mike Will's. Dude Will couldn't even get a full 16 worth of bars before he got cut.

watch the tim vid again. He said "its gonna be a song" beach is better is definitely not gonna remain just an interlude. Jay got ears..

 

[cragmatic]

[Peep Game]

[dt43]
