Good question.

people are lying to themselves

I hope this isn’t the only thing we get from Jay this year

just an observation

 

[CrimsonTider]

Never claimed it changed anything. I'm just saying it's not easily digestible upon 1st listen or at all if don't have some kind of knowledge of things outside of the street, or trying to catch a vibe, pills, getting high, or chasing women.

Much like Lupe, Royce, and now this, you can hear the difference in sober music with some thought compared to most of what's coming out.


And it's hard to appreciate it without being versed in a variety of things or having knowledge outside of drugs and street stuff.

I can completely understand someone putting this on and not liking it.

Good music is good music

Think Crooked I said it, but I'm happy with the way it is, I like the concise nature of the album, I think I've listened to it in full well over 40 times now lol. Been on repeat almost constantly.

Yup, had it playing in my airpods while I was out shopping yesterday. Must have heard it at least 5 times back to back. I fukks with the album HEAVY.

Anyone who don’t like it just keep bumpin lil uzi vert

Why uzi catching a stray?

 

[Cladyclad]

This shyt hard.

 

[Woodrow]

Why uzi catching a stray?

i fukk with both albums heavy. uzi’s an easy target for the “hip hop is dead” set, but it’s their loss.

Easy thing to say when nikkas don’t agree with something they like. nikka accused me of being an Uzi Vert fan and I haven’t made one post about Uzi in my entire posting career. Lol

So basically Jay Elec still hasn't dropped an album yet.....

 

[BK The Great]

Album is dope.

 

[TheNig]

If you have to be versed, studies or reset your ears to like something then it’s trash fam

I fukked with this album heavy but what you're saying is so true. I hate when nikkas say they have to listen to something about thirty times to fukk with it. If I didn't like it after the first listen, I'm not listening to it again.

nikkas did that with Views and More Life. Nah... shyt was wack.

 

[Danie84]

You ain't keep the same enerGy for the Du Ponts and CarneGies

 

[trillanova]

[Edub]

Dope album.... Jay Z shines here, tho it’s not his album ......or is it

 

[Secure Da Bag]

I'm comparing this album to Exhibit A, Exhibit C, and Watch the Throne.

With this said, this gets a .
