Jul 01st 2017
208
                               the muddy pass filter, the trap drums, taking the bass from the vocal
Jul 01st 2017

Particularly since the inboxes didn't start coming hot & heavy until Friday, the day it was released, and at that point it was easily available.

Meanwhile the day this post was made, I couldn't find it anywhere without having to first "unlock" the download via the completion of some spam survey or whatever. I'm sure it was on Pirate Bay or whatever but everyone isn't about that life.

So it's funny that your smug ass reply was about "finding a Jay Z album" and not "finding a Jay Z album that was only available through a convoluted corporate marketing scheme the day before it's official release and right after the leak was known". Makes it easier to pull off your super bold internet swag.

Lastly, saying "inbox" is just another way of getting the album and there's no difference between typing "inbox" in a post and "Jay Z 4:44" in the search box of a pirate site. how do you think bootlegs spread before the internet? There's a communal aspect to it that always has been and always will.

Seems you ordered your Medium Smug with extra Dumb.

In response to Reply # 371

Is it just easier for you to accept that I'm somehow "offended" by the fact that you were a smug jackass than to simply accept the fact that you were a smug jackass?

For the sake of argument, even if I were "offended"- to be clear, I'm anything but- it still wouldn't change the fact that you were, and apparently still are, a smug jackass.

The fact that you're a smug jackass exists independent of any offense anyone may or may have not taken as a result of you being a jackass.

I don't need to be offended, upset, bothered, or negatively impacted in any way to point out arrogance and stupidity when I see it.

So try again, again. There's only one acceptable response

Im not rushing to believe he cheated just because he says he did (he also claimed he sold his mother crack on You Must Love Me, which was false) 2017 is about getting people to talk and gossip, not music. he's aware of this

Im glad he still has glimpses of the old him, but it's far from flawless

I do prefer it over DAMN after one listen though

65. "You get 10 songs of introspective Jay"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          


It's the "grown up" album I've been waiting to hear from him,
reflections on his career, himself, relationships, the industry, society, ...
Also, I think first time he's kinda "singing" hooks, I remember an interview where he said he'd never do that.

Judging by the beat samples I just heard, on top of what I've been reading here and elsewhere about the tone and content ... whew. I can't wait. Did not expect to be hyped for this album.

in the distance, it might be better than AG.

i don't care for the beat to Caught Their Eyes, and Smile is cool. everything else is excellent. incredibly well written. no bangers (maybe Bam).

If your email address is Dudebro@gmail.com you can sign up for stuff using:
D.udebro@gmail.com
Du.debro@gmail.com
Dud.ebro@gmail.com
etc

All of those will go to your main email address and most systems will recognize them as different email addresses. Free Tidal for life.

I'd pay that 7.99 per month just for YouTube Red without Goggle Play to be honest, just to watch YouTube content commercial free, without having the app open, and for offline downloads. Google Play is just gravy.

RE: and shit like this is why tidal will die in 2 years

As time is flying by, I'm seeing Jay and Diddy in a different way. They've created a ton of wealth for themselves and for the ones in their crew. If we don't support these dudes, then we're really not supporting the growth of the culture that should be owned by us.

As a supporter of these brothers, their success is our success and vice versa.

That's just how I see it. So, instead of thinking the business is gonna fail in 2 years, jump on the bandwagon and let's do something to help sustain it instead of watching more and more of the culture become commoditized and sold back to us by cats who only care about the dollars and not the culture.

this is how you get pirating


I mean, i hear you

but their onboarding strategy is pure dog shit.

just make it easy to get to the music

do you know how you compete with other streaming platforms like spotify, apple music, etc?

You be better than them

so far tidal has had nothing but a series of epic roadblocks

just let me get to the music

it shouldnt have to be this hard

I gladly support music I want. I use Apple Music but if something comes out I really want I'll pay more, like when Damn dropped, or the Purple Rain remaster. I still copped despite paying for streaming each month.

Making me go this route tho? Nah, I'm good. I'll pirate it since you want let me buy it without going through this mess.

You can't blame people for "listening" to the album through other outlets when he did this on purpose. It's not about spite and more about hearing this greatness.

when someone ate off your plate.

leave that shit in the car next time, player. lol

you don't dig the record. they do. you told them they only like it b/c the bar is set low. you don't know this to be true but you TOLD THEM that's true. so you said this thing they're excited about should not excite them really but only does so b/c they're starved for quality. so you shit on them, their taste, and this thing they dig. dismissively so.

like i said - you came w/snark. don't act brand new about it.

and what homie said wasn't even snark, really. lol he's right - w/music as w/all art some ppl dig it some don't. totally subjective. you tried to make it objective and in doing so brought that snark tone.

own it. or don't. lol.

fuck you.

In response to Reply # 135


  

          

I spent two days super excited to hear this since my usual source has been down all month, and after a few loops I'm shocked by the gas it's getting on OKP.

most of the best parts of these songs would've been better as part of an interview.

I like that there's a new, enjoyable Jay-Z album but I'm not somebody who felt he fell completely off either. MCHG was boring but it wasn't bad. I liked BP3 a lot, etc.

obviously there's money behind this shit, but it doesn't feel like it in a way no Jay album ever has. I still can't call if the DIY sort of feel works for him but it's definitely an interesting choice.

Fuck Tidal.


this is exactly why im not a big prince fan (took way too long to have his discography on streaming platforms)

this is exactly why Im not a tool fan

this is why my knowledge of De La Soul is not as deep as it could be (this is not their fault though, they have a different story, but still...)

the fact that Tidal signups after the 26th can't get it completely erased any motivation to get it. I signed up this morning and got the "nah, you need to head over to sprint for that" message.

I'll be canceling this evening.

always thought he was one-note, low-energy and boring.

i'm only four tracks in on this album and I'm sitting here rethinking my whole life.

Story of O.J. is a fucking masterpiece (especially the video).

The production is so fucking beautiful. raw. sparse. natural.

Jay-Z basically just invented the Senior Tour for older rappers. REAL grown man rap.

love this shit.

183. "Wise Intelligent gave a better review than I would have (FB swipe)"
In response to Reply # 0


          

The only thing I disagree with him on is
favorite songs although I like all the
songs. Wise' last hashtag tho lol.

(FB swipe)
OK, JAY Z has always been, IMO, one of the dopest writers/emcees to ever pick up a pen. He's ALWAYS been that dope to me, and has never released an entirely "wack" album. I am a fan (of a lot of emcees). Sometimes I'm a satisfied fan, and still some other times a disappointed fan, and critical from that vantage point - but NEVER a "hater."
THAT SAID, I've listened to the new 4:44 album. I thought it was dope (in a Hip Hop way). I tried to go into it without the influence of other people's opinions of the album weighing too heavily on my own. Firstly, the tracks I liked most were/are - Kill Jay Z, Caught The Eye, and 4:44. I found the album in its totality to be the same braggadocious Jay Z just from the vantage point of a more experienced 47 year old. I mean at his age, if you can't part some wisdom gained from past experience you shouldn't say shit in the first place. its like Chuck D said "At my age if I can't teach, I shouldn't even open my mouth to speak."
I WOULDN'T CALL IT, as many have, a "WOKE" album. I know for some, songs like "The Story of O.J." played a part in helping them formulate that opinion of the album. As well as referring to himself as Nat Turner, and suggesting the rich white and powerful are going to kill him for saying "too much." However, I don't think he said much. He invoked Lauryn Hill as an example, but Lauryn challenged the Pope on pedophilia in the Catholic Church - AT THE VATICAN on CHRISTMAS!!! She denounced American capitalism before a federal judge. Lauryn courageously peeled the skin off of white racism, police terrorism and the oppression of black people and women LIVE ON MTV UnPlugged. She literally forfeited the commercial lime, deliberately and conscientiously, because the lifestyles of the "rich & famous" did not bode well with her psychosocial, psychospiritual and or political orientation. 4:44 couldn't have been a skit in that reality.
APART FROM the recordings that addressed his personal life in detail the album was Jay Z, i.e., dope, witty, clear and lyrically unparrelled as he always is. As far as the "WOKE(NESS)" he didn't expound on anything he hasn't peppered his schemes with in previous offerings. He's always had, and occasionally invoked, the knowledge he displayed on this album in his past works. He's never been stupid, or oblivious to the racial politics of the USA. Many black people not considered "woke" are aware of the racism they face day in and day out in this white power-structure, its hard not to be.
IN CONCLUSION its a dope ass album! No I.D. delivered. Jay Z delivered as he does more often than he does not. But for me, if the album strikes you as "WOKE", either you've awaken in the second level, second phase sleep in the same dream (ala inception), or I've altogether never understood what it means to be woke? In short, I thoroughly enjoyed the album...

197. "I'd say it depends on whether or not that first step is the last..."
In response to Reply # 184


          

and how many more are taken.

For that reason, I don't get excited about
halfassed 'wokeness' or 'consciousness' or
whatever. I was the same way when David
Banner made Death Of A Pop Star. While I
dug the album, I didn't believe him until
he proved himself to really be about it.
Halfway activism/wokeness can serve to
seriously confuse and/or make people lazy.

This applies to people outside of music in
things like "white privilege" discourse where
we think white people are doing us some favor
by admitting they're privileged. Nevermind
divesting themselves of it. Then again, that's
what happens when you let white people create
the discussion around "anti-racism", but a
very good example of damage/confusion being
caused due to the first step becoming the
entire movement.

a "dope ass album" in his take on it.

In response to Reply # 198


          

This feels different, sounds different. One producer, 36 minutes long, quality content

I think all the extra is being lumped on this because it's the first time I think we have heard this Jay Z.

Shit is refreshing.

No ID said he pushed Jay on this album and I definitely think it was a different type of energy this time around.

203. "see, I think this is pretty WTT/Black/Kingdom Come amalgam"
In response to Reply # 199
Sat Jul-01-17 12:01 PM by Nodima

  

          

"Kill Jay Z" sounds like a Kingdom Come song beat-wise and feels like "Dec. 4th" while referencing "PSA". There's talk of growing up and being a better person which was also the theme of Kingdom Come. There's mild addresses of black dysfunction, white priviledge and social injustice same as half his content on WTT.


For me, the "haven't heard this Jay-Z before" feeling comes from songs like "The Story of O.J." that are basically spoken word with a vague inference of songwriting, or when his voice sounds like he's working out of the same studio as the King Geedorah "Take Me to Your Leader" sessions, or the Stevie sample that feels...actually, it feels modernly obvious the way his "Forever Young" sample did but it's a dope song instead of a corny song so it's easier to ride for.

In response to Reply # 208
Sat Jul-01-17 01:05 PM by Nodima

  

          

I don't think it all the way works for that particular sample. I like the slight AM radio filter on the vocal to be honest, but it's definitely all part of that aesthetic and for me it's the one song that feels like Jay is playing 2017 games with this album, whereas a lot of the rest of it feels like he wanted to put out an underground rap album circa-2003 with a Jay-Z in 2017 budget.


That's me though. I also think the song jumps out of the gate a little awkward like its cutting "Story of O.J." off at the knees, same with "Kill Jay Z" which feels like it's the 2nd or 3rd song on the album rather than a starter pistol.


my favorite part of the beat is that brief moment the bass drops out and then it kinda comes back with that Late Registration feel for a few seconds (2:30 - 2:50)

211. "That rollingstones interview"
In response to Reply # 199


  

          

was a little too much. He woke up at 4:44 and wrote that song, come on man.

>minutes long, quality content

>I think all the extra is being lumped on this because it's the

>Shit is refreshing.

People wanna believe it's more but this is Jay Z riding the Lemonade Seat at the Table wave. Repackaged and re-branded Jay Z

>No ID said he pushed Jay on this album and I definitely think
>it was a different type of energy this time around.
>

Jay Z is a good salesman he got No ID to buy it. If Jay is about helping the community why make people jump through extra steps just to get the music.

In response to Reply # 211


          

What's so unrealistic about that time stamp? Is it the numbers or the marketing?

and let's chill out on the whole "why is this exclusive" if he is for the people

It's like y'all change the rules depending on who the artist is.

he woke up and starting writing at that time.

He's saying on the album support black business and then he adds an extra step.

Nah P.E. is giving away the new album. If Jay is sincere he could use another album for the Sprint deal and just make this one the regular sign up with Tidal deal.

No not during ITANAM and all that but from the start of mp3's blowing up he never made an issue about people downloading it.

My presence is charity!

It'd be nice if he'd officially retract that
statement, but he did help bail fathers out
of jail on Father's Day, so he is actually
doing things for the community beyond a couple
of songs on an album.

277. "Here's the IMPORTANT part not in the FB post"
In response to Reply # 183


          

"FOR THE RECORD, in this assessment of the record I intentionally avoided going in on the several, usual, on time and on schedule contradictions, like say - the billionaire “field nigga” with maids, butlers and no underground railroad or Bacon’s Rebellion to free other “field niggers” (his being black stopped that comparison just short of a Bill Maher moment) - almost suggesting that the acquisition of wealth by an individual in this oppressive system is black liberation, and or “collectively” surmounting this racialized, antiblack power-structure is as simple as having “credit” after all that’s how “the Jews did it” (but did they?)
I chose not to point out how the album - like all Jay-Z albums is rooted in economic determinism as the ONLY measure by which to interpret the world; and or how the album does not seem to address racism from the vantage point of an entire people vs an entire antiblack power-structure, rather on the individual & personal level only.
In my assessment of the album I decided to let the incredible emcee that Jay Z is - live, and not diminish that by addressing what many of us know Jay Z is not, and has not been - by deliberate, conscious and intentional choice, and not because of ignorance nor “sleep.” That being - a BLACK NATIONALIST!"

In response to Reply # 0


          



...that a lot of folks have their own baggage just from listening to some of the responses to this album....

For the record, this is a very good release...And the lyrics are Jay-Z's strongest (and most thoughtful) I've heard in ages...

But I get it...Jay-Z is not an easy artist to root for...For much of his career he has been a bit manipulative in how he has communicated to the fans.....He has been brazen...on some late age Rolling Stones shit--- I'M ONLY RELEASING THIS MEDIOCRE ASS MUSIC TO TO TOUR...

But I'm not hearing THAT from this new album....This is close to the most naked I've heard from an artist (pop, rock, hip-hop, etc...) in a minute....

I'm more than impressed....

GOAT of his era......long live Prince.....God is alive....

He had no choice. His wife and sister in law released GREAT LPs last year. No way he could put out another cruise control album. This is easily his second best post retirement LP. I'm sure this will end up top 5 Jay album over time. Bring on the physical release!

I see why you might think that. He refers to Beyoncé as "my wife" multiple times throughout the album rather than "my bitch" as he did on previous albums.

It's a noticeable change in how he writes. Got 3 kids now that can circle back to listen, learn, and judge.

I'm not gonna even do the "better than Damn" thing. I can't rate albums that quickly. I rate them on how much I want to listen to them as time passes. I still listen to Damn all the way through, so we'll see. This is magnificent, though...and just like Damn, I've been listening to it non-stop since the first listen.

if he cheated, that confession wasnt aired out on this album. he was careful enough to not air their dirty laundry

increasingly I think the whole thing is fiction - from the elevator to 4:44. All of it to sell records and concert tix. Good stuff. I dig it.

265. "i dunno."
In response to Reply # 256


  

          

there was no audio so i dunno what she said if anything. maybe she's a better actress than i thought.

considering how tightly controlled Yonce and the Carters' images are...for that tape to 'leak' the way it did?

and then little word about whatever happened...just a vague statement. and a throwaway line on like a remix or something.

so we all wondered.

b/c since she doesn't talk much about her private life and the glimpses we get seem so carefully planned this stood out.

then like a year or so later there's Lemonade.

which i said then and i still say - no way the Yonce we've known since 1997 when 'No No No' dropped would open up about something so private and which makes her so vulnerable. not like that. i just don't see it.

and that's okay. i'm fine w/fiction. i don't need song lyrics to be ripped from the pages of the writer's diary. it's cool.

i think they've been spinning a story for a while. and they've got some plausible deniability b/c i'm not sure if either of them has come right out and said "Jay-Z had sex w/another woman while married to Beyonce". it's mostly been innuendo and ppl have strung together a story rooted in lyrics and images. but maybe i haven't followed it very closely and i missed the part where either of them came right out and said it.

but anyway...the elevator thing i don't know what that was about and that's part of the beauty of this entire thing. they've kinda put this stuff out there and allowed us to project whatever we want on it. it's kept us tuned in.

this is how 'music' entertainment is sold in the public sphere these days though. it's gotta be more than just songs. there's gotta be a 'brand'. a story. something more than just songs. b/c songs are 'free'. ppl need a reason to buy in. this story has given ppl a reason. it hits all of the right notes - it's drama. it's messy. it's 'reality'. it's even become somewhat political. high art, even. (see: the reaction to Lemonade). they're doing it right. i applaud it. i just doubt it's based on real life facts that happened to Beyonce Knowles Carter and Shawn Carter, that's all.

fuck you.

but I agree, I dont believe that album was about Beyonce. I think it's a tribute to all women who can relate

I think having a daughter made Jay Z into the man that's on this album but I dont think he's dumb enough to commit infidelity with nothing hitting the press. He cant breathe outdoors without paparazzi catching it

Including her mother. And maybe some of her past relationships. And other ppl she's known. Or it was all made up. But I don't see that whole thing being the Carters.

and i agree w/you about the paparazzi.

if Jay-Z had sex w/another woman while married to Beyonce...where she at? these days there's no way that goes down w/o that woman selling her story to some media outlet. she'd get PAID. she'd be notable. infamous. who is this woman who resisted the temptation to tell HER side of the story? after Yonce put her on Front Street? she stays quiet? (see: the women who Tiger Woods boned. they were out there, even the one from the Waffle House http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1233559/Tiger-Woods-8-hour-diner-waitress-deal-kept-affair-news.html).

nah, b.

fuck you.

In response to Reply # 269

were biographical.

everyone bought into Beyoncé (the album) being about this woman so deeply and happily in love and sexually satisfied and devoted to her first born child and the children she'd lost along the way, coupled with the first time (IMO) she released a legitimately great album and everyone wanted to do it all over again.

If Lemonade doesn't put Jay in the movie then it's just a bunch of songs same as all the others she's done about breaking up and getting on with it (what, really, is so different about "Sorry" than "Irreplaceable" other than its not surrounded by a bunch of torch songs and club freak anthems otherwise?

I admit I'm a bit blinded by the fact I thought Lemonade was Beyonce getting back to making perfectly fine, barely good definitely not great albums and never bought the hype in the first place 'cause the music just didn't inspire me to dig into it too deeply, but I find Jay's stuff here more specifically about his life than Beyoncé's there. Maybe I'm biased in that way as well, rap vs vocal and all that.

Interesting.
Have you expanded from applying it to
anyone you disagree with? Anyway...

She makes great points about Black politics,
and the REALITY of "Black wealth."
If you're worth taking seriously, address the
points she makes in the video instead of
resorting to the immaturity of namecalling.

take the title track (4:44) for instance

dude spit the most uninspired rhyme scheme ever conjured

I mean really, a stop and go cadence on a beat that fucking fire...dudes corny now and folks just too caught up in & jonesing off of nostalgia to admit it, yall desperately want a savior, foh.

me and my boys ran thru that whole instrumental using the same rhyme pattern and it was literally child's play

now, imagine that same beat in the hands of a, yes you guess it, ANYBODY touted in the circles of REAL lyricists as the REAL torch holders of this shit called hip hop.

I agree No ID boxed him in on the 4:44 song. The flow wasn't impressive but the content was definitely on point

I ain't tryna convince anybody of anything...by all means, tout it as the best thing since sliced bread. I'm just aghast at how many folks both on here and elsewhere are calling this mailed-in bullshit brilliant. Nah baby, I ain't gon be able to do it...and I ain't gon hold my tongue neither foh.

I liked it enough and wasn't turned off by anything I heard, but I had to force myself to listen to it twice so I probably won't play it again. I'm not invested in it enough to love it or hate it, and honestly that's a place I don't like to be in when I partake in art.

will you at least admit it is in reference to the Future/Russell Wilson situation?

maybe not a direct shot (i mean...), but it is in reference to that. Jay is slick with it.

what proof is there?
cuz he uses the word "future"? lol. That would be too obvious to be a play on words. You said yourself you wasn't aware of any beef. lol

y'all can really be fans. y'all can't even enjoy the music without injecting your own theories. any man {taking care of his children} would tell you how much it hurts to have another raise yours. Which matches what he's talking about in that particular song.

enjoy the music..

to illustrate his point. I don't think there's beef with Future, but everyone knows about.

with that said, future may have beef since Jay mentioned his name like that.

In response to Reply # 294


  

          

it's not that deep, Jay just reppin for his generation against mumble trap rap
and what better way than to go against the father of the mumble style

It's the same hip hop story all over again:
someone innovates a new style
gets bit to death by lesser rappers
new style becomes old played out everyone hates it style

or specifically I think about the people I grew up with who were drug dealers/hot heads who cooled down and gained knowledge with time

i also see it as, I guess taking account of where we are right now in history and trying get folks to start thinking differently, aka "wake the fuck up"

I'd argue that part of Jay's balling out has always included that business mindset. I think the bragging on his business acumen has always been a part of the persona and, arguably, part of that ball so hard recipe.

To that end my only critique is that he might be a little deluded as to how much of a unicorn he is. Talent, vision, right place & time, right team, etc. He's a perfect storm of elements and very, very few are cut from his cloth to take full advantage of opportunity, whether self-made or simply taken.

In response to Reply # 309


  

          

when I hear 4:44 I contextualize it in the time we're with the small grouping of conscious releases from K.Dot and others

It's a small wave among others that are running counter to the dominant messaging having to do with excess and consumerism

of course you could go deeper with financial literacy but I see this as a bread crumb, if someone resonates with the messaging then I would imagine that they would want to go down the path of finding other bread crumbs that could lead to some awareness of how money works.

it's about Jay's message but its also about the influence he could have with other rappers assuming the style/mode hes on sticks

I'm thinking its just saying "think long term, spend your money in other places, be wise". Its a fine line between making a broad statement with a good beat that will catch some heads vs. a preachy "conscious" rap album

who are these ppl?

i don't think they exist. i think they're as real as the welfare queens folks railed about in the 80s. both spring from the minds of ppl who have very cynical ideas about impoverished ppl. except y'all mean well and those folks in the 80s didn't.

just dig the record b/c it makes you feel good to hear rap that's about something other than bitches and switches and hoes and makin it rain.... that's fine. but this idea that Jay is gonna save the hood b/c he told them to buy million-dollar paintings or to buy a building hoping in a couple of years it'll be worth millions s just doing too much. b/c #1 real estate is risky investment. my grandmother's house was deep in the hood. i say was b/c the shit has been torn down. it's an empty lot now. and it has been for at least a dozen years. it hasn't gained in value. ain't nobody gentrifying her part of the hood. if any wanna-be mogul had sunk money in her house he'd have lost. if he'd have sunk money in that lot he'd have lost. this story is what happens in MOST OF THE HOOD. a few spots got lucky. a FEW. most ain't got shit. but Jay didn't say that b/c it doesn't sound as good on a record.

fuck you.

but even if it's just one that's better than before.

While you joke about those jerseys it definitely shows Jay has/had influence over the hood. Would be nice to see if Ciroc sees a jump in sales next quarter.

Y'all joke if you want but the numbers dont lie.

Jay talks about hoes and money and biogas complain. Jay talks about legacy, real estate and investing and taking chances instead of advances and y'all complain.

Smh... okp.

i am not complaining about Jay-Z dropping a throwaway line about real estate investment. in fact i have repeatedly called it 'good rap'. w/your dumb ass. fuck you, nigger.

i am saying that Jay isn't dropping knowledge w/that shit. b/c it ain't shit.

try to keep up.

you're probably the type who might learn som'n from a rap record.

In response to Reply # 321


  

          

the hood is finna be snapping up Basquiat paintings left and right b/c Jay-Z!

Christie's will have to install metal detectors.

next thing you know lil drug dealers will be all up in Re-Max offices w/wads of $5s and $10s tryna buy up buildings b/c Jay-Z!

which will depress the market.

but Jay-Z didn't say shit about that so it's not hood reality.

nevermind that most property in the hood isn't gaining in value.

Jay didn't rap about it so it's not real.

my bad.

fuck you.

In response to Reply # 316


  

          

2. it seems like you're only referencing 'the story of oj'. check out 'legacy' where hes specifically talking about the effects of generational wealth. wait, have you heard the whole album yet?

i dont think its a one to one thing where Jay says one thing and magically the people are doing what he says. No. Like I mentioned its a wave and a counter action to the dominant messaging prevalent in rap.

the whole suzie orman, save the hood, buying up basquiat paintings stuff is all you.

If I were to imagine a best case scenario for a listener who considers the message I see someone simply being aware of where dollars go.

In response to Reply # 326


  

          

i've only heard Story of OJ.

hell, i've never heard an entire Jay-Z album excep

no, i've not heard an entire Jay-Z album. not even Reasonable Doubt.

wait...maybe i heard RD.

i haven't heard anything from Jay that made me want to sit through an entire album. and he made this one so hard to get i haven't bothered or wanted to.

for what?

nah.

but if your point is beyond Story of OJ then ok.

fuck you.

In response to Reply # 331


  

          

I haven't heard anything about the record that's made me want to hear it. I'm not here for lectures on finance that barely scratch the surface of the shit. And I don't want deep lectures on finance either. Bc that topic doesn't do shit for me. I don't want to hear Jay getting winded tryna rap fast. No ID doesn't do much for me. I can hear Stevie and Nina records on my iPhone. Frank Ocean ain't nothin. I know he didn't actually fuck Becky.

This ain't my record. Unless I hear 3 hot songs from it. That's a longstanding rule - 3 songs I like and I'll go buy the record, probably. So far I've heard one.

fuck you.

Antagonizing me like some 3rd grader on a playground, posting made up stories about drug fueled gay orgies...not like this, man. The more subtle approach might work. But I dunno what you look like and I assume you're kinda like Fred Berry (http://inamerica.blogs.cnn.com/2011/12/22/little-rock-nine-elizabeth-hazel-margolick/) and I'm not really into chunky dudes. So it's a firm 'no', player. Not happening.

In response to Reply # 291

he's not dissing anybody, he's just saying Halle/Ciara/Beyonce are all on that level and he didn't want to lose what they lost.

Benet reference probably plays better with his audience so he played it up more but that's all he's doing with the Future thing.

If you wanna argue argue about whether it's cool for him to talk about these women like trophies but the lyric itself is pretty straight forward and clever.

366. "This sounds like what a 47 year old man should be rapping about"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Call me age-ism but I think Busta Rhymes or whoever sounds silly in their late 40s rapping about tearing up the club and fcuking chicks and what not.

Kanye isn't that old but there is a disconnect between his wife and rapping about fucking models who bleach their assholes.

I would resist the woke title because I think this is just the bare minimum that a near 50 year old man should have on his mind, legacy, investment, kids, marriage, etc.

I also wouldn't be surprise if this doesn't do anything for the under 30 set because they are just not at that stage in their life. Jay-Z had his pop bubbly in the club stage, these younger folks will too. Of course the shit young boys do on instageam seem silly to a grown ass man.

Subject matter was dope but I do believe some of lyrical skills were below Peak Jay-Z (did he really just say the Eric Benet line twice) and some times he could have been a little bit more subtle with his point, but because my expectations were so low this album was a gift.

This is exactly what I told a friend yesterday.

As far as him talking about saving money and investing wisely,
Larry Elder would tell one to do the same. There's nothing
particularly "woke" about financial responsibility in and of itself.

I don't like that theory. We can be our own enemy.

like, what if I have knowledge of it but don't subscribe to it...can I still be woke? What does this "wokeness " look like? Cause where definitely not building empire anymore...

or am I misunderstanding things again lol

ankh-right is the play on words for the Alt Right

like extreme OKPlayery ...
like using crystals and potions to solve world hunger


woke is pretty much a catch all for 'I'm in the know' or the ability to read between the lines

I guess it's the trump era we're living in
where jewish stereotypes just fly and there's no outrage
10 years ago ADL and them would've called for a Sprint boycott
now? crickets

or maybe it's because he works with a ton of Jewish folks and makes them a shit load of money.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*

389. "So what's the verdict on the 3 bonus tracks on the purchase DL today?"
In response to Reply # 0
Fri Jul-07-17 12:02 PM by auragin_boi

  

          

JAY-Z’s 4:44 Tracklist
1. “Kill Jay Z”
2. “The Story of O.J.”
3. “Smile” Feat. Gloria Carter
4. “Caught Their Eyes” Feat. Frank Ocean
5. “4:44″
6. “Family Feud” Feat. Beyoncé
7. “Bam” Feat. Damian Marley
8. “Moonlight”
9. “Marcy Me”
10. “Legacy”
11. “Adnis” <--Bonus
12. “Blue’s Freestyle/We Family” <--Bonus
13. “ManyFacedGod” <--Bonus

I held off on hearing this until today as I wanted the bonus tracks so I'm going to cop today. Curious what people think of the 3 bonus tracks though.

396. "I'd kinda hoped one or two of them would go at the top"
In response to Reply # 389


  

          

I haven't heard them but probably my strongest complaint with this album is that it has an in media res feel that doesn't feel right, "Kill Jay Z" works as an album opener conceptually but sonically it feels like the second or third song.

398. "From a conceptual point, that would have been dope"
In response to Reply # 396


  

          

I don't think I've ever seen a bonus track change the order of the original release before. However, once you hear the 3, you can always flip the order. I armchair executive produce all the time lol.

I thought that immediately. Doesn't have the impact of an opener from a production standpoint.

between The Black Album and American Gangster.

The space between 4:44, American Gangster, and the Dynasty is actually very close for me. I feel that the Dynasty has some all-time great Jay-Z songs on there but is slightly less cohesive than the other two.

400. "it'll really depend where I fall on the songwriting"
In response to Reply # 392


  

          

right now, I feel like I'm settling on a real strong 3.5, which would slot it at #6 between American Gangster and Hard Knock Life.

I really enjoy the album so if the flaws start becoming more endearing than just tolerable it could wind up in the neck-and-neck American Gangster/Black Album 4/5 slot.
