Albums Jay Electronica - A Written Testimony (Discussion Thread)

[Family Lives Matter]

False, they use elements

I'm familiar with the NOI, they were my first introduction to Islam

Went to school with Farrakhan grandchild

I don't mess with them no more and I will admit that introducing Dianetic Auditing from Scientology was and is suspect.

 

[The Ruler 09]

Jay Electronica actually making people have religious/spiritual discussions on The Coli lol. Changed the game, classic album.

 

[Nostalgic]

Flux Capacitor sounds good in the whip.

Wish this album had New Orleans artists as features.

I always wanted a Jay Elect track with Christian Scott on trumpet and Frank Ocean on the hook

This shyt ain’t no damn classic. Lol. U nikkas crazy.

 

[Nostalgic]

Electronic is so average dude been on load management for 10 years. Imagine Drake or cole dropping this average shyt

Drake and Cole could only dream of making an album like this

This a grown man album, This ain't for the clubs

 

[Conscious Pilot]

Who are you to dictate to somebody what they consider what’s a classic or not?

you a music Authoritarian or control his ears?

 

[H.J.Duck]

Is there a version without Jay Electronica available? I just wanna hear the new Hov verses.

If Cole made this exact shyt he would get shytted on somethin serious. Bad mixing. A feature on every track. And one verse per track. They would get killed for making it. Kendrick would get praise tho.

Personal classic and Classic is 2 different things. Let alone the album just dropped.

I think it's a classic, I've actually heard a lot of people say the same after too. I know it's subjective though but I'm pretty conservative with my ratings, as they have to be authentic to how I feel. I listened to the album a lot before saying that, but pretty much listened constantly and enjoyed it and picked up more things with each listen. 5 mics and a classic for me, but of course others may feel different, but for me I'm clear on that in my mind now after listening as much as I have.

Just about every song on Madvillainy
Only had one verse, To some people that album is considered as a classic.

Sometimes less is more.

Madvillainy did something for the scene. And Doom carried the album himself. Didn’t need anyone else. And what he did on that album sounds deliberate. This album sounds thrown together. Def not polished enough for nikkas to have been waiting over a decade for.
