JAY-Z ~ 4:44 (Discussion Thread)

Funny he got NO I.D but No Ye

 

[Still FloW]

I'm skeptical of Just Blaze at this point.

The last thing we heard from him was 'Freedom' on B's album, and while it was good, it sounded dated and a little out of place.

He's arguably my fav of all time, but right now he's not one of the first 5 people I'd go to if I was a rapper lookin' for beats.

Wale ''88'' & Drake ''Lord Knows'' put some respek on Juss name

I can't imagine running up in an album anticipation thread from an artist I don't fukk with just to hate. I would just ignore the project before and after release. Seems like a waste of time

 

[thaKEAF]

That No ID part is interesting if true.

If the best songs from a producer are 4 and 6 years ago, respectively, I wouldn't call it a red flag, but maybe an orange one lol

Glad Jay coming out, but Im not ready for the constant comparisons to him and Nas this year. This topic is gonna be allllll fuhking summer

Not in the real world, sign off from the Coli if you want to avoid Nas stans cause I've not heard Jay stans mention Nas and Jay-z in the same sentence since they dropped a dope song together.

For most people it seems like they are too good for that discussion, it's all about taste and no one really compares them. Like pizza and burgers can co-exist. That small click, I don't even know if they are Nas stans or just internet trolls, will probably never stop that shyt they started in 2001 though.

as long as there's no trap or southern style beats this will be, at worst decent, at best really good

Jay z is still one of the best rappers ever

He's worked with Zaytoven as of recently do we might be getting something like that along the lines.

 

[B!tchuoffendingme]

Jay made Beach Chair. That was one of the best songs of the last decade, of any genre.
If he puts out an entire album of songs on that tip, it could be something special.

Hip Hop is for the youth...

This ain't been true since the 80's, early 90's when the vast majority of artists were teens/21-22 and the fans were around the same age.

The most popular best selling rappers are 30, or above and everyone is a fan from 12 to 60.

They better not be playin!!

It's funny to be anticipating a Jay-Z album, knowing I'm only gonna bootleg that bytch. That's the era we in. I don't do streaming. I sure as hell ain't gonna get a sub to Tidal. I don't care if Jesus makes a record with Beethoven and Ras Kass. I'm definitely gonna see if I can make some cake selling those CD's.

 

[SAJ!!]

No ID behind the boards?

I'm officially interested.
