Album is dope on first listen, both are killing verses. Jay Electronica just has a unique ass say of wording shyt and some of his quotable are insane.

Also I see the Coli still can’t tell when a rapper is off beat. I still see people here, in this thread, tryna say nas was off beat on Adam and Eve and bonjour, show me where.

I might be the only person who loves Flux Capacitor :manny:

I fukk with it too. It hit me in the same way 'Massage Seats' did on 'Bandana'

Also dug the fact that Hov looped back to the Exhibit A "'Get The Gat, Get The Gat' was a popular phrase....'" bar.

"Though I tarry through the valley of death, my Lord give me pasture
If you want to be a master in life, you must submit to a master
I was born to lock horns with the Devil at the brink of the hereafter
Me, the socket, the plug, and universal adapter
The prodigal son who went from his own vomit
To the top of the mountain with five pillars and a sonnet
The autobiography read Quranic"

"Jay Electollah Flomeini mainly is support mainly
The fatwa he issued on al-Shayṭān was delivered plainly
It's the day of Qiyāmah
To the believers, I bring you tidings of joy
But if you want beef, I'll filet mignon ya
You could catch me bummy as fukk or decked out in designer
On I-10 West to the desert, on a Diavel like a recliner
Listen to everything from a lecture
From the honorable minister Louis Farrakhan
To Serge Gainsbourg or Madonna or a podcast on piranhas
What a time we livin' in, just like the scripture says
Earthquakes, fires, and plagues, the resurrection of the dead"

Nah. This ain’t it. Mad disappointed.

That nicca Jay Elec said “I’m hot like a tamale”

:francis:

I wait 24,875,865 days for a Jay Elec album and get 30 minutes of Jay-Z overshadowing him. Plus there is no continuity on this. This can’t be life.

:mjlol:Yep Coli has been quiet on that, considering other emcees that have been singled out for less on here it's rather disappointing to see these agenda's unfold.

"The son of slaves, true, I started out as a peasant (Uh-uh)
That's why I build my temple like Solomon in the desert (Uh-uh)
The Lord is my rock, I speed dial through salat
My trials in the fiery crucible made me hot
I glow like embers of coal, born with a touch of gold
My mathematical theology of rhymin' a touch the soul
I spent many nights bent off Woodford
Clutchin' the bowl, stuffin' my nose
Some of the cons, I suffered for prose
My poetry's livin' like the God that I fall back on
And all praises due to Allah for such an illustrious platform
The teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad's my backbone
When I spit, the children on the mothership bow on a platform
The true history of Jesus comin' to age
I wore a ski mask and glove to the masquerade
Uh, I got the Roc on my shoulder (It's the Roc)
Somebody should've told you, I'm a motherfukkin' universal soldier"

Amazing dense album


Perfect balance


It could have been nothing but soul beats and traditional boom nap

But they wanted to stick out as you should as artists

The off in beat nature of flux made me want to catch the hi hat they was chasing but they did it with their own flow


Interesting album :wow:
