Albums Jay Rock - Redemption (Discussion Thread)

[Ukbrotha]

Y'all think we are getting extra verses on King's Dead ? The og track always sound like they cut Rock off (a random line out of nowhere) in favor of that Killmonger beat switch with Kendrick at the end


Where the Jigga track . Kinda shocked he got Cole on this - I know Rock about to eat his lunch on the track though

I'm so ready for the 15th


The TDE general finally getting his just due brehs - its been a long time coming

I don't know about eating Cole's lunch though. Cole usually brings his A game when he's featured.

90059 is my shyt. Rock was the 1st one I was listening to real heavy as far as TDE is concerned. Back when I watched that low budget blood walk video, lol. That being said, like somebody said, he's clearly been bitten by that Kendrick experimental bug. The change in his adlibs, vocal alterations, Freeway like rhyme scenes (taken to the next level), and more. Now, it's working for his flow and bar wise. 90059 shows that tremendously. 90050 still gave you that Jay Rock feel along with that though, like he wasn't too far gone.

That's not to say he's too far gone now but I feel he bout to fukk up the balance he had on 90059 and go full throttle in one direction. I hope I'm wrong though. King's Dead is a dope track. I just need a Future-less version, I'm sorry. I'm not really feeling "Win" like that but I understand what he's trying to do. We'll see though. I don't need him morphing into Kendrick lite tho. Sometimes, all I want Mr. Kung Fu Kenny to do is just shut up and rap like he did on Nosetalgia with Push.

i feel you, but these snippet videos prove otherwise. sounds like he's in a good lane to stay true yet have some broader appeal.

regardless, rock is a talented rapper so i'm always in for his projects...really all TDE projects, that label got too much talent in so many different lanes

Snoozeberry Cole been letting me down for years


I used to Stan for dude back in the day, so if he can come through with that heat


Rock underrated in his camp as a spitter , he usually kills everybody on the posse cuts.

I hope he raps his ass off and flames Cole so he can get more shine

Yup.....one thing they have in common with the previous successful labels.........great in-house production, taking that and mixing in a track or two from a big name. Its a solid formula.

F*ck a Jay-Z feature....What track getting that Black Hippy remix treatment

I don't want to hear Sean Carter next to Rock, y'all can keep that.

 

[Cloud McFly]

Hopefully the Hov track is still there.

[L@CaT]

Ima need that feature Jay Rock a little bit more on that album... The one that eats everybody present on a track with him. Didn't see him like that in 90059 even though this was a very solid project. Based on the snippets I'm not worried... But I can't with Win Win Win Win, not my cup of tea.
