you dont get it.. old school jay could rap over some wack ass beats and you would still pump that shyt because he was so fukking nice with it.. can you say the same now?? magna carta is nice, no doubt but this time the beats are carrying the album not the other way around.. he fell off something serious
Honestly fam I'm not sure. Because of his flow I am actually following his lyrics/word play. And I am impressed; he is very charismatic and enticing on this piece. FUTW on repeat.
Nobody in this thread has said what they consider lyrical and why this isn't it yet so i'll wait for that before I delve. It's pretty obvious that nikkas are trolling/letting their love for nas and hate for jay-z misguide them. Some people are honestly disappointed and thats fair. Maybe i had low expectations and thats why. Forgot this shyt was even dropping until i woke up and logged on here.
edit: And also I'm not sure that wack beat assertion is correct. People on here will have you believe Jay hasnt had a hot verse since the Blueprint and that Justify My Thug is a trash song. I listen to some of the wack boring nikkas dudes jock on here and it is obvious that ppl are blindly hating Jay-Z
