167932, So, yeah, this is cool enough

Not re-inventing the wheel or anything, but definitely a good album, which is all I wanted. Jay's rapping is solid. Some of the beats bang. Shit like "SomewhereinAmerica" and "BBC" are just as good as anything out right now. On first listen, I'm decently satisfied.
I've got some issues with it: not loving some of the beats, "Holy Grail" seems like it has more Timberlake than Jay, him talking about his art collection in "Picasso" is kinda dull, and the "Mommie Dearest" samples in "Blue Jay-Z" are corny. But overall, I can probably fox with this.
