"LOL at Jay Electronica ALWAYS missing studio sessions."


          

From an interview with Alchemist:

Alchemist: My two favorite rappers that are new are Blu and Jay Electronica. I wouldn’t even say they are new because they’ve both been around. They’re so incredible because I feel like they still have that artistic integrity, which hasn’t been compromised by getting a big deal or catering to the radio, which I can’t say for this new crop of artists. But it still feels like labels are mad at those two. I like the rappers that are making the labels tight!

AllHipHop.com: And Jay Electronica?

Alchemist: He is like the wind. He is not a rapper! He is like a spirit. The first time I met him he was supposed to come over at night. Didn’t show up at all. Next morning he’s knocking on my door. So I’m like, “What’s up?” He’s like, “You want to just go for a walk?” It was the weirdest s*** ever! I was like, “Uh…Word! Hell yea!” We rolled up some weed, it was a Sunday morning and we walked all the way to the West Side Highway just chopping it up about life and everything. He asks mad questions and acts like a student, but he’s a teacher.

Just, Alchemist, Questlove, Puff... ALWAYS LOOKING TO GET THIS GUY IN THE STUDIO.

this cat is on some Pootie Tang shit at this point.

He don't even put out mixtapes really anymore.

He's gonna just 'be' his way to a 'what coulda been' music career if he ain't already there.

You can applaud that shit if you want, sounds like a waste to me.

In response to Reply # 8


  

          

Can you insert some phony dialogue here, using your inimitable homoerotic slang?

Alchemist: He is like the wind. He is not a rapper! He is like a spirit. The first time I met him he was supposed to come over at night. Didn’t show up at all. Next morning he’s knocking on my door. So I’m like, “What’s up?” He’s like, “You want to just go for a walk?” It was the weirdest s*** ever! I was like, “Uh…Word! Hell yea!”

Alchemist: His asscrease whistles like the wind. He is not a rapper! He is like a asshole affiliate spirit. The first time I met him he was supposed to come over at night. Didn’t show up at all, and I was man-hot for him and disappointed. Next morning he’s knocking on my door. So I’m like, “What’s up, dickdrainer?” He’s like, “You want to just go for a walk, maybe homohuff a bit?” It was the weirdest s*** ever! I was like, “Uh…Word! Hell yea, creamycock!” We had a crackcrushing good time, I tell ya!

rapping your job, stands to reason you might actually wanna put some shit out.

If your thing is not recording, then don't record shit in the first place and then later not show up to a studio you're booked for......it amazes me the levels some of y'all will go to ride for cats in the face of common sense.

I don't think that dude 'belongs' to me. I think he's a good rapper. It'd be nice if he actually did a bit more of it and wasn't ghost whenever his previously scheduled arrangements come around.

If he wants to wander the earth rapping when the spirit hits him, just stay that and stop wasting everyone's time.

how do you know rapping is his job, please tell me how? do you know if he makes money outside of rap? do you? the man has hardly even performed on stage. and i doubt releasing songs free over the internet is making him money. this comment extends past JE. its like yall bitching about D 10 years later, or askin Erykah when is part II droppin? WHENEVER THE FUCK THEY ARE DONE AND FEEL LIKE RELEASING THEIR MUSIC! artist like erykah can release an album only sell 300k and make money off touring. they dont need you to cry and wine over new product. cause that's how she makes money. do i want music from all three used in the example YES, do i need them to? NO. there is other shit out there.

if he's a carpenter or plumber than let's stop talking about him rappin' then......because I and most other folks were under the impression that's what that dude does for a living or at least is 'trying' to do for a living.

Shit, if he ain't gonna put out music even as a sidejob, why start courting record contracts?

D'Angelo's is/was a drug addict who's ruined his own career, were you trying to make a point with that example?

Ain't no reason to bring Badu into any of this. Badu has established herself, released music, tours, works, raises children.

The fuck are you even talking about?

this entire "Rapper" thing like they aren't any other artist like a painter or a photographer or poet that MIGHT or MIGHT not publish, sell...whenever they feel like it?

that's just STUPID.

Art is art and it was art before record deals and soundscans.

other people in this thread who are either dumb or trying way too hard to play devil's advocate.

Ask Alchemist, Ask Quest, Ask Mos Def, Ask Just Blaze, Ask Any Motherfucka Still Waiting on A Mixtape He Promised Two Fucking Years Ago.

Those are just a few instances I know of, what neither one of us know is how many there's been in addition to that.

Only thing we do know is that this cat apparently ain't in a hurry to put fuckin music out.......which is his right. But please stop with the bullshit.

Half these posts are realistic, other half...?

I think a big reason that artists and musicians get like that is people treat them like they live in some other dimension and don't have to follow the same laws of time that the rest of us use.

If you work at an office, and you never turn in work or turn it in when you damn well please. Well my brotha you will get fire.

If you decide to take 8 years off work for no reason...the boss will probably laugh at you when you finally show up.

If you are a student, and you're supposed to meet with the Dean/Principal about some important issue, but you say fuck it, and then you go to his house the next day and knock on his door and say "hey let's go for a walk and just talk and share."...?

But an Artist can do all of these things and half at least a few people saying "Oh let him be, let him live his life."

Let's just remember that behind every aloof-but-successful artist are several people that put in work EVERY DAY.

creativity or talent.

And who is to say that the said lazy artist is not putting in work somewhere else?

Before folks knew him as a rapper the man was a teacher.

Because one excels at something does not mean it is their life purpose.

And the 40 hr work week is a joke people are really not working for anything other than money in many of these menial jobs.

A noted producer was sitting in a studio waiting on his dumb ass and that ain't the first, second, or third time the shit's happened.

Don't book the time if you can't spit the rhyme.

you have a beef with capitalism and its culture of compulsion to diefy certain parts of the population as special for having talent. where as in the "real world", one has to work. well, we are all living in the "real world" it just so happens in this world some people can do whatever the fuck they want, whenever the fuck they want to, while other like you and i have to work. its our fault for not nutring something outside of a skill that drags us into a 9 to 5, not artist who work on their own schedules...

no one is saying jay electronica has to submit to some routine
he can be 'him' all he wants
point is HE SCHEDULED TIME with alchemist then didn't even show the fuck up
i mean presumably alchemist took time out of his life, prolly waited there the whole time, maybe even wasted money on studio time,etc
and jay electronica didn't respect alchemist or the art of hip hop enough to even fucking call
and yall niggas wondering why hip hop is dying?
when THESE are the niggas who are supposed to save it, no wonder
soulja boi woulda been there 15 minutes earlier
thats probably why his net worth is 4 times that of electronica at damn near half the age
as far as only caring about the 'art'
thats retarded
so u care about the art but in essence the artist is denying u the art by being a lazy weed smoking piece of shit

In response to Reply # 34


  

          

....niggas can blame the media all day for why "real" hip hop ain't being exposed but all in all, there are a lot of "real" hip hop artists who don't have any drive that are hindrances to their own careers. I can't see how anyone could defend Jay's behavior. As stated before, he can do him all he wants but when he's involving others, he's being disrespectful. Art is not an excuse to screw others around. If this was Soulja Boi or Flo Rida, I bet'choo most if not all of these niggas would've called them unprofessional and losers.

You're not that talented. That's why you don't have that opportunity.

If you had a penny for every time an artist missed an appointment- important or not- you'd be a millionaire.

lament from Jay Electronica, I'm going to laugh my ass off.

You don't want to show up for studio time and record? Hey, that's cool. You don't want to release any material of you rapping? Hey, that's cool too. You want to go off and live and be a "human being"? Whatever's clever. Go write poetry on the beach. Take long walks through the woods. Study interpretive dance. Take a pottery class. Study medicine. Communicate with the Great Bison Spirit. Do you. I just don't want to hear somewhere down the line you complaining that you never got your shot at the big time, and there are all these rappers blowing up that aren't as good as you are.

The rap game is littered with dudes like Jay Electronica.
He has his chance right now to be remembered for being an MC and a musical artist. If that's not for him, cool. I just hope he enjoys the alternative, which is musical obscurity, if being remembered for being a rapper at all.

In response to Reply # 66


  

          

Now if this was 1998 and someone skipped out on STUDIO time....then showed up at my door the next day asking to just take a walk....

Well you already know I'd be pissed.

But what's interesting to me is that Jay Electronica has captivated EVERYBODY with his "image"...the whole mysterious, master teacher, GOD EMCEE thing....

Producers know he's shifty but they still wanna fuck with him.

Fans know that he doesn't put out music EVER but they still wanna ride for him (see: half the people in this post, especially FireBrand, who's riding JayElect's dick a bit too hard)

For a guy who doesn't put out official music, he sure seems to have figured out the nature of PEOPLE, which makes you wonder what he could do if he actually *did* stuff. I don't care if it's public speaking, rapping, photography, consulting....shit. He's obviously a guy that makes a SERIOUS impression on people. I just wish I could have more of it.

And maybe that's his plan....

I'm not super blown away by the guy anymore but I do enjoy 3-4 songs out of his catalog. That said, I trust that if he's got something to say that we'll hear it. In the age where being prolific is both necessary and the norm, he's got a lot of fan trust to build back up.

commented on publically.

And he still ain't close to having his first record out.

So pointing out that this dude's dedication to rapping is questionable ain't really about catching feelings, it's really just acknowledging something that's pretty apparent to anyone paying any attention.

It's his right to not put much into this.....but don't bullshit people while you bullshittin.

It's that simple.

They're probably crossing their fingers, praying to God, and watching for black cats simultaneously. Just hoping that this isn't a dream....that this raw ass rapper is REALLY about to spit something on their track...

Seriously, guys....this dude has had EVERYBODY in the *industry* sprung for a minute now. Yes, his rhymes are dope as hell, but I don't think that's what sells him to these people.

Apparently he has one of the most sincere personalities to have hit the scene in a while. I don't know what that says about other rappers, but people really wanna work with this guy....be associated with this guy. The Alchemist just mentioned him as a top MC, THEN decided to tell the story about him NOT showing up at his place that night. Like he was happy to let people know that he associates with Jay Elect on that level

This is all some really strange shit, honestly.

And when Jay Electronica finally decides to release an ALBUM....shit...when his album gets LEAKED....the internet will explode. Puff Daddy will be just as excited as Mr. Fat-Ass the Internet Critic to get their ears on that shit. And this is coming from a guy with ZERO product available.

That's wild. Or maybe I should just put this shit away.

*EDIT*

Oh, and I won't touch on the fact that this guy has managed to have a child with Erykah Badu during his brief time in the....uh...."spotlight."

'The man, the myth, the legend' is how they say it, I think.

nigga just walks the earth like cain in kung fu!

fuck outta here.

don't make it more than it is, ppl. a lot of rap niggas just be on some lazy, unmotivated, unprofessional weedhead loser shit. period. and i love (LOVE) jay's music but a spade is a spade.

i'm hoping there's a happy ending here - the guy's talent in phemonemal. but like bomb said upthread, @ this point i'd put the guy closer to pootie tang than terrence malick.

even more interesting was how it wasn't really a blow off...he came the next morning early in the morning to build,and take a walk..(who does that anymore?)...i mean if you gonna build you either would do it in studio,or maybe in the whip...but just taking a walk?...my guess is jay is a people person...and all that energy comes through when he eventually works with these people...i don't think there is any laziness,or foul intent behind it...but than this assessment probably makes me "blind to the facts"...lol...



guaranteed when his album drops it's gonna be ridiculous...

Wrong.

An artist substantiates their craft however they deem appropriate. Albums and Album sales are how the recording INDUSTRY help define an artist.

You can't tell me that Townes Van Zant isn't one of the greatest folk singer of all time and most of his great shit isn't even recorded.

lol @ Buzz.

lol @ recording artist jargon and industry bullshit.

At the end of the day being an artist is enough in itself. If you want to partake in his artistry, that's got nothing to do with his expression itself.

NOTHING.

Maybe he doesn't care to water down his art to where he'd have to in order to make it marketable.

Maybe he wants to work on his live show, which, it seems, is wanting.

You don't know what he's doing as an artist in terms of preparing, growing, honing skill.

All you know is you heard some leaked material and you want more.

That means nothing in the grand scheme of things. You have any idea how often this sort of thing happened in the past before internet and lay-"expert" buzz?

FOH.

You don't know.

I don't know.

Nobody but him knows.

And that should be enough for you until time reveals.

93. "You're hypothesizing while Im talking facts"
In response to Reply # 87


  

          

the fact is *he* promised us Act 2 on Christmas Day of 2007. I havent seen anyone do much more than expect him to stick to his word.

I said nothing about substantiating his craft. I said he had a buzz built up and the way Hip-Hop typically works is showing and proving through putting out albums. it especially works this way for newcomers. show me where Im wrong here

(I know, JE isnt typical Hip-Hop, he's an enity from another world. my reply: FOH)

Blu kind of just showed up out of nowhere with a stellar debut, all Jay Elec has givne us is strings of bootlegs, outtakes, snippets and the cosigns of people we respect who have really made their mark already.

Im not calling his quality into question, I happen to think he's very dope. But for all of your maybe scenarios, maybe he's unmotivated and complacent. You dont think every dope producer that knows of him has been dying to get him on a song?

I'll be surprised if 1 out of those 5 or 6 projects named from thae sweeneykovar piece ever sees the day of light

2008 it was like "he's magic, he has a masterplan that we just arent ready for yet", going into 2010 it's "you need more people"

and i've yet to see an explanation for the contradiction of being stauchly against corporate hip-hop and somehow being BFF with Puff Daddy

this is all hogwash until proven otherwise

again though this was the first time they met..who's to say they haven't recorded some classic tracks together since than?...and maybe the building helped influence that....i don't honestly believe the point of alchemist telling this story was to shit on jay electronica..but moreso to point out that his approach to recording is different,and fascinating...
