JAY-Z ~ 4:44 (Discussion Thread)

[Mr. Negative]

man pushing 50 playin with new flows and dropping fire like this.....i'm just at the greatness

he's a true musician.

his voice is his instrument.

He JUST figured it out. (that's not a slight or a diss)

 

[CrimsonTider]

at you accusing others of "doing too much" while you're on some unnecessary wet blanket shyt.

I'm talking musically.

The ones that are inspired by Jay are the Drake, Coles, Meeks and Wales and those are old now

Only 4 songs in but the lyricism is

I had to rewind every 20 seconds. I mean Jay Z always had layers and layers to his rhymes, but this one stands out... I feel like I could bump this shyt for 3 months and still discover new things. Production is solid... I gotta give it a proper spin

Yeah so I'm listening again. Kill Jay-Z he addresses the Ye situation and how he felt. The next track is The Story of OJ. To me OJ is a metaphor for Kanye because not only do they sound the same but Kanye is going through the exact same shyt forgetting his blackness, running around with Kardashians ect ect. Why would Jay talk about OJ in 2017 when Ye is really who everyone wanted him to address. Jay would never outright make as song about Kanye with his name in the title so I feel like it's his way of sneaking it in. You have to read between the lines. I could be wrong but even if he only did it for himself as his own inside joke I think The Story of OJ is The Story of Kanye 2017 just subliminally done

hmmm im gonna listen again,see if I can catch a few things

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

[beenz]

I think you may be presuming things that aren't true. A 20 year old kid was old enough to remember Jay's black album-AG era run.

Smile

The story of OJ

Great album but it is overwhelmingly racist. And I'm scared to listen to it with my white friends so I canceled our planned listening party. We cant bop to this as a group.

Every part of this post

[Marci-Senpai]

Sucks tidal isnt available in my country this aint on itunes?

 

[Gravity]

Is there a way I can buy the album on tidal or otherwise????
The trial version of tidal won't like me play the album

Youve got to be a sprint customer to get it officially right now.

 

[the kid]

This is actually what Blueprint 2 should have sounded like. Soulful but adult. Gonna give it a few more spins to digest, but so far this sounds like its at least in the top half of Jay-Z's discography.

 

[CHERUB]

All this album lets me know is KID CUDI was fukking right all along and yall shyted on him for telling the truth

 

[REAL6]

If so

• "Family Feud" features additional vocals by Beyoncé.
