[Paper Boi]

See how you did that? lol..... Connected a memory to music? .....that idea of music is becoming a myth... Gotta preserve that!

lmao nobody said it went over well with em all.

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.

if my point was invalid, it wouldn't have prompted a question. this is my opinion...there is no need to take it personally. i think the project will stand because of the two main players involved, however, i just didn't feel like it was great. the only thing these 2 should be putting out together is greatness and it wasn't that.

If it was your opinion and how YOU feel then cool but stating that if some other duo made this record then WE wouldn't give a damn!

This is dope as fukk to me favorite joint so far is Ghost of Soulija Slim, The Blinding(Sounds very Watch The Throne'ish and then that beat switch ), The Neverending Story, Universal Soldier , Flux Capacitor, Fruits Of The Spirit, & A.P.I.D.T.A. (Great way to end the album) just great all around(Yeaahhh little kids voice).

However the album would've been perfect with having a joint or 2 from Just Blaze or songs like B.I.T.W.T.I & Exhibit C type of tracks just to round it out. Not having Just Blaze kinda does a slight disservice to putting this over the top, but that takes nothing away from this outstanding piece of work since they still killed it tho. Jay-Z sounds like Dynasty/ Black Album version of himself.

I don't care what anyone says, it's still Jay Elec debut just guest starring Hov; yeah it's the cheat code but so what, if you didn't have a problem with this classic

Then there shouldn't be problem with how A Written Testimony is laid out.

Jay Electronica for finally dropping hopefully this opened pandora's box and we can finally get a Nas/ Premo album & Detox. Great album overall i give it a 4.5/5

Was looking at Jay Elect's post on Instagram and reading the responses, from fans and artists too.

Papoose said the album was amazing. Pap also said it was flawless.

Kevin Durant said it was a masterpiece.

A lot of people calling it classic.

I'm not trying to tell anybody to feel 1 way or the other, but it's a real thing that most opinions on here don't line up with general consensus in the "real world"

Again, not judging. Just interesting

whats the consensus of the "real world"

 

[ℒℴѵℯJay ELECTUA]

you wouldn't

because we are not getting that sort of product or artistry display..

what world do you live in?

 

[verbaltelekinesis]

whats the consensus of the "real world"

What I've heard ranges from good to GREAT!!!

 

[Cadillac]

i think Jay only did better then Elec if your looking at this in a lyrical who is wittier, punchline, view

in terms of content, relatability. Elec has him imo

 

[Cadillac]

The whites and c00ns are out
