You know how much i love Jay but even i was :avbusure: @ that Picasso Baby video. I'm a Jay stan but Jay been a douche, that's part of the reason why I fukk with him. What I can't get with per se are the adlibs, uhns, and him doing this high art rap thing. yea Jay has been namedropping art since Reasonable Doubt but we don't wanna hear about his relationship with anything like that unless he's dropping a No Church in the Wild type verse.
Based of Jay features in the past couple years I'm convinced that the best way to make a Jay album in 2014 is to trick him he's doing features for guys like Rawse, Jeezy, Jay Electronica, Kendrick etc, etch their name out, and drop albums non stop. If you pair him with Kanye, he's lazy. If you pair him with Beyonce, he sounds way too poppy.
Dream swansong from him is something with lots of brass and orchestra and put together by all the biggest producers of his career: ye, guru, blaze, pharrell, timbo, preme, etc. And less 'fast' beats. Give him some stuff with some space to rap over
