I like Jay and consider myself a fan but I'm just not interested in hearing him rap anymore :manny:.

There's always a million threads on Jay but what y'all are expecting from him is not realistic for where he's at in his career. He's not gonna drop another American Gangster or a Hip Hop Is Dead type of album. He's just looking to make records that are hot for now where he can still make headlines and sell out shows.

nikkas just need to accept that and keep it moving

If you got a mac then iTunes is prolly better but on windows I know it's just a bloated piece of shyt that installs a bunch of services and things I don't need with a pretty ugly interface that doesn't mesh.

I tried out 11 to see if it'd be better. It was not.

More Just Blaze beats and he needs to put better subject matter.

album lacked any soul...I was listening to Pandora the other day and it played "The Ruler's Back" and I was like damn difference was night and day....can you blame him though? rap fans so concerned with 1st week sales then the actual music so nukkas gotta do what they gotta do to stay relevant (in the short term) :wow:

Very diverse subject matter. You had your stereotypical brag-raps Jay is known for (Tom Ford) and a very aggressive motivational-type track (FUTW). And he did touch on some boundaries he'd never before gone, like Oceans, Jay Z Blue, Nickels & Dimes.

I personally think the album is fine. Above all, it's a very FUN listen.

He needs to stop going for them Euro beats and need to get on the vibe of being comfortable being 40+ and making music that grows FOR HIM, not his record company.
