Albums Jay Electronica - A Written Testimony (Discussion Thread)

[The Mad Titan]

Really really really really good album.

Not perfect but that's part of what makes jay electronica I feel.


Definitely a classic, it's not something you gonna constantly listen to but it's High quality material.

 

[BUSINESS AS USUAL]

Only took 14 years for this to drop so I could skim through it in 2 mins and not listen to it ever again

Lmfao DEADASS

 

[ThaEruditious]

Nas should have been on that bih, hell even Lupe would suffice

A definite 9 out of 10.

Breh, I would kill a nikka for Lupe to get that spot

 

[CrimsonTider]

Can't wait to hear what y'all dramatic ass nikkas is saying about this album in 3 weeks.

this is still going to be a badly produced album 3 weeks from now SIR

 

[Suspicions]

Just started listening. Why he let Hov start it off smh

Exactly my thoughts. This nikka is talented but hes so p*ssy

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

I'm not understanding the arguments that the beats are trash. The overall theme of this album is what "Untitled" should had been. I'm talking wickerchair 38mm camera rough rugged soulful beats with gems being dropped on them. My only issue is the random sound effects on the album. Kids cheering and some dude making gibberish noises and shyt

yeah don’t get me wrong I’m loving hovs raps on this. But Elect should at least start his own shyt off lol

 

[CurrencyChase]

I just noticed that shyt while reading this

This is Hov’s Experimental Album and another testament to Jay Elec’s greatness to bring that out of a great 25 years into his career. Still want that Just Blaze project and couldve done without that Get the Gat song but I fukks with this heavy. Someone said it earlier but its like watching a master and one of his most gifted students training.

The production is nuts.
Hov is nuts.
JE is inconsistent ranging from meh to dope.

I'm not a fan of the production on this album, sir. I already said in here that the production is mostly just ok. The rhyming is what saves the album. My point was I bet these dudes acting like this the best album ever will be crickets or singing a different tune in 3 weeks. This AT MOST is a 4/5 album (I'm leaning more towards 3.5) but these dramatic dudes in here acting like it's Manna from Heaven. Predictable Coli first day overhype.

 

[Majestyx]

shyt cool.
Elecs verse are cool. Jay's verses are funny to me. Breh spent the last 20 something years on some rap Sam Walton, Warren buffet shyt, no he on some Sim sim salabim shyt. It's cool, his transformation has been interesting.
