Have you listened to the album? JayZ nut huggers are going to like whatever junk he puts out. Personally, I hate his songs where its a slow melody and he tries to make it sound like 1930's jazz or whatever that tune is called. I want real hip hop songs. The beats are like 1930's style. No beats at all. If you like this album, you probably like R&B and soul music or something.
Im not a jay-z hater jay-z is my folks but I think he should have stayed retired I read somewhere that everything he spits he keeps inside his head well his songs sound like it ,they all sound like freestyles maybe he should try writing down his raps. Hip-Hop is Dead !!!
aw man jay is the best...I am a little scared to peep his new album tho....just cuz I have real high expectations of the man.
"The Watcher 2" (feat. Dr. Dre, Rakim, and Truth Hurts) on Blueprint 2 is the definition of "classic"hip hop
shit and if he can go from broke to havin' a bank account of over $500 MILLION (in just 10 years) he must be doin somethin right. Plus he ownes Armandale Vodka, Roca wear clothing, Rocafella records, Def Jam, the Knicks, what more do ya want?
..oh and he's bangin Beyonce...The man cant lose regardless of what NAS says (I respect NAS too)
peeps that hate I think a lot of them just dont understand Jay...You kind of have to know all his music to understand alot of what he's sayin....maybe some dont like him regardless...thats fair, I'm just a huge fan (sucks to hear his newalbum may not be any good tho)
i find his last few releases have grated against the ears, sound bit too jarry, he's still rhymin about coke and how he moved keys or whatever it gets lame and has a habit of making silly noises along the chorus with yelps here and there. not really thought much of him since his blueprint album. gotta respect him for being so rich and fucking beyonce but i bet its only because he's supposed to have a 'pepsi bottle sized cock' for that bootylicious rear.
I respect everyones personal views. But I was trying to stir some shit about the Arian Bobble head doll. Given away at the Cannibis cup this year. The tittle really refers to that Budweiser commericial Jay Z made.
As far as Arjan...I don't know him personally, but I seem to like Shantibaba more. From what I've read, he's not too big on ethics.
As far as Jay-z, I've never liked him as much as everyone else seemed to. And as far as The Watcher 2.....Jay-z, Dre, AND Rakim have all put out better shit than that song. And in my opinion, Rakim will smash any other rapper out there. Listen to "Flow Forever" on his "The Master" album.
