word. i dig that my dude. i'm still in the grieving stage so that one hit serious.

i know i'll come back to it to help me get thru things. music is that powerful

Yes I feel you bro, condolences and hope you heal well also. And no doubt, music is so powerful, I needed this album right now, much more than entertainment, everything was the production, lyrics, content and general vibe was a real experience. I honestly haven't stopped playing it since it came out, can't remember the last time I've replayed any album over and over again like this.

Y'all are easily impressed. The rap game is so weak that people are going crazy over oversampling, Farrakhan talks and decent bars from 2 of hip hops most prominent figures. If it wasn't Jay Elect and Jay and it was 2 other dudes with the same beats and the same bars, nobody would blink.

I've been a Hov Stan my whole life and still in disbelief I woke up to a full legit Jay Electronica project but to be honest I could barely get through it.

a dangerous assumption you are makingt there..

A MUSLIM is not color/racial restricted..

JAY ELEC claims he is muslim..

if you are referring to NOI classification, maybe you have a point but check this..there are several members in the NOI with white wives..including one of farrakhan's son's..

EDIT look what i found..

JOSHUA FARRAKHAN WITH HIS FARDIAN BRIDE AND YAKUBIAN BABY..

so are you implying there are emcees with the same vocal tone, lyricism and display as these two?

your point is invalid, a definitive artist has their own display and touch to where the listeners/audience will embrace their unqieness.
