How did the two Jay Z/Beyonce/Khaled tracks flop so damn hard?

1. They were trash records
2. Relying on Khaled to get you a hit in 2017 :scust:

3. Jay can't seem to rhyme on beat anymore. I don't know what his problem is. His flow is just :hhh:

4. Why is Beyonce spitting harder than anybody?

5. Future's hooks are the worst on these songs. Just the drizzling shyts. After Jay said no Autotune, he turns to Future and then he doesn't even deliver.

Shining was ok but Top Off was just trash. They always have had an awkward, try hard feel to the songs they do together even when they're good....
Shining is a classic song compared to that top off shyt, then again it was mainly the trash ass future hook that ruined the song.

@gator_king Future Hendrix might be on his way out as well, his last couple features was trash and that young thug project came and went the day it was released.

Beyonce and Jayz aint really radio monsters like Rihanna and Drake.

These days they can only make waves when their music is blm related or about their relationship

Top off was straight trash. Track sounds forced as hell. Future on the hook was awkward too. But Family feud is a straight classic :ohlawd:

They only really have musical chemistry when it's an upbeat Beyonce pop-ish record and Jay drops a verse at the end :yeshrug:



Handle like Van Exel :banderas:
Part II says different.
They stay trying to make an event, instead of starting with trying to make a decent song
Yup. They're too cognizant of their status and play up to it instead of letting their status do the work for them.
