I don't get this whole "this shyt been said before" shyt

99% of what people rap about today been said

But what other rapper can deliver lines like Jay? So much charisma and delivery, that mic presence is impeccable.

Like he said something along the lines of
yall think small, i think biggie (Correct me on this if im wrong)

Not a good line at all, but the way he said it made it passable
It's kind of like when prime wayne said some weak lines but the way he said it made people like it more than it should have been

U do kno this type of track has been made a million times bro. Jay just put his spin on it. It's in the same vein as DOA


Plenty other artists made this type track waaaaayyy before we knew who Kdot was breh

Big difference between a track ( nickel and dimes) and a whole album. Concept and all.

Jay Z died in the intro.

ignorant Kendrick died in beginning segment in tpab. ( Transformation = butterfly )

That's code for
"Im a cac and i dont like all that black talk"

 

[Concerning VIolence]

"Especially if they from the same hue as you"

Jay-Z gave a state of the address to hip-hop.

I don't think people understand how important it is for the message that Jay-Z is speaking to be spread throughout Black America and planted in our minds.

Just

I know a lot of people are saying what he's saying has been said before but please stfu. Everything has been said before, this has been said less. Jay is bringing so much clarity here, it's not typical layers of meaning Jay, he's just laying the bars heavy but the content... I've owned every Jay album but this one is the first time i know what he's alluding too immediately.

And yet and still these bars! With so much ease, every track it's just like it's easy to him, second nature, muscle memory.

I like how other rappers will have no choice but to be effected by this. Usually the culture is on some fukk old nikkas shyt, but Jay owns so much and is so wealthy and got so much together it's not even cool to hate on him. This the type of music that spear heads the genre and makes peoples taste pallets change. Gonna be hard to listen to lil yachty hoodie when bars of this quality are available

I knew once he was unleashed into tidal he was gonna bring something new, might even have to sign up for six months of free sprint so I can make sure this man gets some of my bread

Finally got around to listening to this just now and I can't believe the main takeaway from this entire album seems to be about his Ye/Kardashian diss & him cheating on Beyonce. This generation is beyond lost.

This shyt is stupid, breh.
