Why are so many shocked that Hov is getting Jay Elect on every track ( which I don’t agree nor disagree with)


Like Jay-Z isn’t regarded as one of GOAT Rappers or something :gucci:


You ever WANT something to be true so bad but it ends up not being true ...:ehh:


That's how alot of people feel about Jay-Z

they want him to fall off or say he never been good hense the "Benny is better than Jay thread that have tumble weeds in in right now after this album

Your post was trash, nothing needs to be explained :hhh:

What the fukk is lazy about Flux Capacitator ?
Jigga sounding lost ? You sound lost breh
How the fukk does he sound lost on this ? He rode every beat perfectly and was spitting

And you do realize 2.5/3 = 83% which is way above average right ?

Man jigga does not come off as believable rapping the way he has on this or 4:44, as a listener I don't buy it, doesnt sound authentic at all coming from him. Forced is the word here.

Elect is a Fisher Price version of Killah Priest real talk, nothing amazing about duke at all, cats listening to this shyt like their plugged into the matrix when its nothing new at all. Elect should be criticized for dropping this after the long wait. Breh is lazy period. Last concert I went to of his he milked 3-5 songs from catalog for 2hrs talking for most of the time. If I'm not mistaking it was supposed to be a combined dilla tribute as well/piggy backing of another legend.

If you don't think the production on here is bland then there is no use of even going back and forth because we will not see eye to eye.

lyrically it has a lot of great moments as expected. jay elec really got in his duffel on the neverending story and hova caught a fukkin hommy lyrically on flux capacitor (i'm surprised some nikkas ain't like his hook it's high grade puday to me)

production is very good but not blow-me-away great keep it currency wit you. beat i love most is fruits of the spirit, and my hands down favorite song, but why the fukk this nikka only gave us a minute and a half? second favorite is probably the blinding, jesus christ these brothers put on a clinic. but goddamn wtf is with travis scott and that wack hook b? and please keep dream out the goddamn booth too with these off brand reggie hooks lol


criticisms aside i'm happy with this and will be bumping this brazy for the next few months. but lol @ nikkas acting like hov wasn't capable of gettin busy though. it's cool. i'm not shocked at all, i loved every verse he spit and am now looking forward to the inevitable collabo with him and griselda at some point. and i hope he convinces jay elec to come along for the ride too. if vast aire, doom, royce, bad lieutenant, skyzoo, and all them other nikkas can make fire shyt with griselda ain't no doubt jay elec can too. been waiting a decade for this. unbelievable. but i'm ecstatic yall. jay elec is a fukkin verbal nightmare. an elite lyricist without an elite rap career, go figure
