The Black Album is a personal classic, but this is easily the worst song on there

[Mike the Executioner]

I like every song on this album, but "Change Clothes" is the worst one just because it's the most disposable.

What's crazy is "Dirt Off Your Shoulder" was playing in my head this morning.

 

[UpAndComing]

Jay has some of corniest songs of all time if we’re being real. Nothing tops this

I actually liked the song

 

[JustCKing]

The crazy part about this whole thread is the defense of "Justify My Thug", which was looked at as a bottom tier Jay song from the jump and that song is only mentioned as anything worth talking about on here. Yet, a song that Jay Z STILL performs and is one of the most performed songs in his sets is the worst song on the album. The Booth stays having some of the worst takes ever.

I would say its the worst take ever, but some people have even ran with and co-signed the following:

2Pac "America's Most Wanted" has a wack beat

Biggie's "Juicy" has a wack beat

"Ether" has a wack beat

I will NEVER take this board's opinion on what passes for good production seriously. Posters stay clowning Nas's beat selection, I'm thinking this board is overrun with rhythm less, soul less posters who critique music more than they actually listen to and enjoy it. Basically, Pitchfork type white folk.

nikkas saying justify my thug? Was it the hook because the verses were fire

just people telling on themselves

 

[big bun]

I have never been as disappointed in a beat as I was when I heard Justify My Thug. Shyt was and still is fukking trash. And I love Quik. And Camel spit hot garbage on that song, too.

 

[Dolo]

Overplayed but no way its the worst on the album

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Justify my thug is worse

Yep

 

[Tasha And]

I just realized that I don't like any of the singles from The Black Album even though it's one of my favorite albums from him.

 

[Da King]

Cacs LOVE that song, that’s why and you to stay away from the track

 

[ECA]

All the singles minus PSA are trash

 

[deeznutz]

Nah.

Change Clothes by far.

Change clothes is the only song I refused to listen to after first listen. Song is ass cheeks

 

[GUCCI C0ND0MS]

Black album is overrated af. I like blueprint 2 a lot better.

 

[KnickstapeCity]

what about

I fukks with this.
