4:44 was a forced dumb-smart nikka album..

Only Jay haters say shyt like this. Killah Priest makes dumb-smart albums. 4:44 was just common sense wisdom from a near 50 year old man. Wasn't anything pretentious about it. It was mostly about his life, not life advice to adolescents anyway.

4:44 is very overrated to me. I think people were overhyping it as his response to Lemonade. I mean he only addressed his infedelity in like 3 songs. It also further reinforces my belief that if he wasn’t married to Beyoncé, he’d be seen as washed up and way past his prime.

I disagree. Nas is the better rapper and I prefer his delivery to Jay’s... I also didn’t like 4:44’s execution as a whole aside from 3 songs. I hated the used of some of the samples on the album.. like the Stevie sample on Smile. That song is overrated as hell to me. NASIR doesn’t have any songs that I dislike.. but then again it’s all about preference.

I dont think Jay ever was close to Nas lyrically. That beef is the reason why the two were ever compared to each other. If it didnt exist then I doubt anyone would argue that Jigga is better than Nas.

Nas is washed and Jay is as lyrical as he's ever been.
