JAY-Z ~ 4:44 (Discussion Thread)

[L&HH]

fukk it I'm buying Tidal.

 

[Zero]

Hov came w some incredible bars, but some of the nikka's bars came off like Lupe lite breh
We aint trying to see Hov get washed by prime Lupe for anything more than an individual song. NO disrespect btw

It is what it is breh

 

[re'up]

These are the kinds of albums we want our legends to make, no pandering to anyone, no of the moment guests, just straight from the heart, it's not a perfect effort, but it's perfect for what it is. I hope Nas follows a similar approach.

I'm about to listen to this soon. I'm curious to see how this pans out, Jay albums have been mediocre for a hot second

 

[Rigby.]

It is what it is breh

Really we just need a track of Lupe going bout 50% and Jay one more time..... Jay been ducking Lupe for what 10 years now? I know them nikkas still know who one another is....Im sure Hov prolly heard T&Y. I know Lu gone appreciate this joint. It'd be a dope ass link up thats no doubt

4:44 is already one of the GOAT "I'm sorry I cheated on you" songs

[The Minister Of Culture]

"Glorified Seat Filler, Stop walking round like y'all made Thriller"


Hov Taking shots at either Drake or Kanye....

or Both

 

[Cadillac]

Black empowerment Jay is just

From what im hearing Jay is spitting like in his prime and production is laced solid by ID


Those two things alone. Make me want to hear this badly

[AAKing23]

Is Beyonce singing "Black Owned" in the background on Family Feud

 

[Insensitive]

I genuinely hope this album is dope as fukk and doesn't have the "Buy my old albums" vibe.
I'm all for artists growing and changing but I hope he comes hard on these tracks and reminds
heads how nice he really is.

I'm ready for this album release, I might even be able to see him this go around if he goes on tour.

"I wanted to rhyme like common sense...."

@ Jay-Z
Dope as fukk.

 

[OGBobbyJohnson]

LMAOOO

 

[iamduval]

He says the most complex shyt effortlessly. He's clearly the best rapper ever

 

[Bald Head Ba$tard]

Mane, fukk Magna Carta after this release. As a Chicago native, this album is just incredible. Based on the NO I.D. production alone.

It's like I'm hearing a Jigga album and a Common album at the same time. Why I say Common album? Because Jigga took a page out of his book by putting Gloria Carter on the end of the song reciting shyt just like Common's dad (RIP) Lonnie did on his albums.

AND the album is 10 tracks on some Illmatic shyt........Jigga know what's he's doing 4real this time, mane.
