Honestly I had no interest in a new Jay-Z album but I heard The Story of O.J. on the radio yesterday and it reeled me in.
This is the Jay-Z album I want in 2017. I have to give it some time but it's definitely his best work since American Gangster and I might wind up liking this more than that. It's very cohesive, perfect length and the content is what I want to hear from him at this point. He's not chasing today's sound or collaborating with who's hot at the moment for a hit. I didn't expect to like this but I am really feeling it after a few listens. Great job NO I.D.
This certainly will be a timeless listenthis.
too early to tell but this might be jays best album this millennium
Song is fuegoman i got smile on repeat just cruising through chapel hill
After "Nobody's Smiling" and the skeletal production on that Vince Staples album I thought No I.D was done.. but it boils down to sample clearance and budgets I guess.
Cuz Im forgetful amd I dont wanna pay the 9.99
Everything but Prince, breh. Everything but Prince.Yep budgets. Dude could probably clear or replay anything at this point.
That's about right.If I had to pick a Jay album for each era
Reasonable doubt
Black album
