Albums Jay Electronica - A Written Testimony (Discussion Thread)

This is pretty good. A 4 is about right. If I was a stan i would not be happy as this isn't worth a 10 year wait.

I’m on Flux Capacitor. Jay Elect was more off beat than Nas been in years but nikkas aint gonna say nothin. Also. Fruits of the Spirit one of the best tracks and it’s only a minute.

Difference is rappers who are weak lyrically CONSTANTLY get called out and labeled as being inferior lyrically (mumble rappers). No one calls these emcee's for their terrible ear for beats to the point where they should be shamed for it.

Lupe Nas Em get talked about cause their beats. There’s threads on here about how you can’t “vibe” to lyricist music. People complain all the time about how they don’t want to think about metaphors and just want banging beats when a person says literally nothing on them

The album is good but still a let down. Mainly because the level of solo songs he's giving us. Nothing on here hits you like exhibit A or C.....or Ghost of Christopher Wallace or Road to Perdition. I feel if he would have gave us at least 4 strong solo songs along with Jayz on here it would have really did the job but this kinda missed the mark not like a complete let down but expecting a bit more.

How do these triple A artists end up having a product mixed poorly than a Soundcloud mumble rapper?

Nah. Maybe for mainstream albums? Maybe.

And this is not what I remember. I remember people was talking about financial literacy, people was talking about the money phone diss to Future, how personal Hov got, the videos were amazing, everyone was remixing Family Feud.

Y’all gonna revise history that it came and went now

Me , the nikka I quoted, and that c00n Billy r talking about the Coli.

Your talking about the media and celebs/rappers. Read the post no one is doing any revising of history here.

And for the record outside of the media and Jay fans, alot of regular people felt that way about the album.
