mediocre ass album if anything.. if it was another rapper that put this album out, same lyrics same everything..? would be saying it was wack specially jayz ? riders. But since its hova yall ? are quick to lable it a classic or great..smh
-
I dont give a ? this album is a banger, Hov delivered. I'm givin this 4 beyonce ? hair out of 5.
Lotta lost haters out there now, on some "But...the tracklist looked so corny. And, and he still looks like a camel right!" ? -
"Go head and lean on that ? blue ...you own it"

LMAO I thought something similar when first hearing the song
Song could have been so much better but he was lazy.
my sentiment exactly.. my least fav song on the album.. but i guess he was like hell, ? in paris had no real basis so ? it..lets look for something similar -
Damn Jay really said "Please Please let this guy go away"
Damn Jay really saw Nas as a threat -
Production on this album is good through out. Jay is coasting on some tracks. But overall it's a good album. Tom Ford is a banger to me. Some songs don't have to make sense it's just a feel thing.
Favorite track is probably Picasso Baby. Weakest track is La Familia. -
Jay really be having ? in their feelings.
meanwhile in the real world this ? about to do 1.5 mil in a week

I haven't listened to it yet, so what should I expect?

I haven't listened to this album yet I was going to pick it up later .I haven't listened to it yet, so what should I expect?

I suggest you go out to a club or party where normal people hang and soak up the music. Don't listen to these rap ? on here. Test it in the whip too!

Jay-Z in his own words:
"Right now i have it at #4, but ya know, its fresh, so that can change."
You can take that to mean it can go UP and pass RD, BP, and BA (he's not stupid)
Or it means even he admits once the newness wears off, he'll come down to earth. Just like I've been sayin.
-
This album is 5th on my list.. behind tba and AG.. yes I like AG better than tba..
-
Album ain't better than Vol 1 or AG
-
I'm about halfway through it and I think it's cool. Definitely a little awkward at times but he still got it.
Tom Ford and Fuckwitme are instant replay joints. I'm gonna listen to it a few more times before I make a complete judgment but certainly better than Yeezus and Born Sinner thus far. -

MCHG is easily than both those albums. MCHG has no bad songs on it imo, Vol 1 clearly has three (Sunshine, What girls like and Face off) and American Gangster is dope, it lacks the entertainment and balance than MCHG has.

American Gangster to me is his best album post-'retirement' .. And I still think its a good and not a great album
Nice smooth beats, crafty bars/rhymes and the theme/concepts with the film of the same name ..
That's the thing with Jay though, he kinda always makes you go back to appreciate his old stuff when the new music is lacking
I don't need to listen to an album more than once to "feel" it. ..
I've just saved 3 or 4 songs from MCHG - the rest have been recycled -

not comparing MCHG to these albums but everybody is different. every listener doesn't fully grasp the album on first listen so I don't give people flack for listening to albums multiple times before giving a final verdict -
Ruthless my style as a juvenile ran wit a gang slanged in the meanwhile bankinbi specialized in gankin whites mexicans brothas and others

I listened to that ? ONE time when I copped it and I knew it was a classic .. With a blunt of course -
When I was talking Instagram
Last thing you wanted was your picture snapped
-
Another thing with Jay-z albums is ? always overreact and don't let his ? soak in. To me rappers like Jay and Lupe takes some time to get the subtle ? they say because they layer their albums with so much below the surface ? .

Lol @ listening to an album once and making judgement...
I know for a fact I could go back to some great/classic 90s hiphop and pick up something I missed or have a completely different opinion on it, as I have a different perspective on life since I've grown. Always catch things when I listen to Big Pun first album...
Also don't get why people delete songs from albums and only keep their favourites...each album is a part of history. Who's to know how you gonna feel about that album in 10 years? -

Entertainment don't stick as much long term. Its just prisoner of the moment talk
I can bet money in 3,4 months i won't be listening to many of these songs. And not b/c their bad songs, but b/c once the thrill wears off, and there's no real lyrical depth to go back and 'vibe ' to....you gon be onto the next one. For example, when was the last time you proactively searchd and just HAD to listen to...On To the Next oNe?
On the flipside, I'll pop in Sweet, No Hook, Lucky Me, Imaginary Player, You must Love me, etc all the time just to listen to the deep ? he was sayin. This album doesnt have that as much, not even close.Another thing with Jay-z albums is ? always overreact and don't let his ? soak in.

Cmon man, you know beter than to lump old jay z albums with the new. He is not as layered lyrically as he used to be. -
There's only bout 3-4 tracks that are dope from jump in here. I'll listen again soon.
I'm not really feeling the beat selection, this ? sound a little like It and Yeezus were recorded around the same time but Hov put a little more effort
