whole 2nd verse on moonlight is :wow:

Y'all nikkas still signin' deals? Still?
After all they done stole, for real?
After what they done to our Lauryn Hill?
And y'all nikkas is 'posed to be trill?
That's real talk when you behind on your taxes
And you pawned all your chains
And they run off with your masters
And took it to Beverly Hills
While we in Calabasas
And my head is scratchin'
'Cause that shyt is backwards
That shyt ain't right
Lucian is cool but Lucian don't write
Doug ain't this tight, so
fukk what we sellin'
fukk is we makin'?
'Cause their grass is greener
'Cause they always rakin' in mo
'

Family feud had me stuck for 30 minutes
First rapper this year to make me rewind to catch what he was saying before I finished the first listen :whew:

El rey de todas las cosas le bendic
"Al Sharpton in the mirror takin selfies/How are him and Pill Cosby supposed to help me?"

:damn: Those Sharpton pics went viral last week, this dude recorded this a few days ago.

:francis:On the mic these days Jay is in the same essence as those NBA cats in the 3 on 3 league trying to ball. Good enough to be entertaining but that's about it.

this album is the one grown Hov fans been waiting for, but I guess having a kid and all the stuff with his wife really matured a part of him.

I feel like this album is really grown man dad Jay looking back like :whew: I almost messed this all up.

Beyonce got to feel like a million dollars, Album is basically penned to her and his kids. As well as black america.


Album is fire tho, hov was rapping about whats relevant to him the entire album and nothing felt like a grab at whats popular now or trending now and it was refreshing.


And no trap beats:blessed:



The samples were on point to which always lead to strong albums.

I also feel like if you under 32 this album probably aint gonna touch you like it will older J fan's.

Or if you a still out in the streets immature or on some BS.

This album is pretty much anti immature shyt.



Hella props for speaking from a more black empowerment point of view as well.
