I skimmed through 500+ posts to say I hate some of y'all

Some of y'all stay trying to mess up the vibe in good threads. Y'all don't adf anything of substance to the convo one bit

And no I'm not naming names because I don't want them lames continuing to mess up a thread. You know if you a fuck nigga or not
 
Album is pretty good. Much better than the other albums he put out over the past decade. I would still probably put it in the lower half of his catalog.

If Jay knew Kanye was leaving Tidal weeks ago the Moonlight song could even be about him at the end.

"Guess we will talk when u behind on your taxes, pawned all your chains, & they ran off with your masters, took em to BeverlyHills while we in Calabasas"
 
This album becomes a more and more undeniable classic the more I listen to it.... Favorite track changes everyday today it's smile that'll probably go down as one of my favorite Jay tracks

I'm enjoying this album. But I've seen some people on social media defending the album against the "Where's the club bangers? I need some slappers! I don't get it." people.

I'm not surprised a lot of people were putting down TPAB (a classic masterpiece) and Untitled for the same reason.

And let's play devil advocate - Is this album filled with boring "Soul/Jazz Beats" too? (I have no problem with laid-back production with soul). Is Jay-Z getting a pass on this for being a legend in the game and being on a level Kendrick and Cole have not reached yet?

You're pushing a narrative nobody said. Alot of people didn't put down TPAB.

I'm not pushing anything, just talking about what I read on this board and other social media outlets. TPAB is a great classic album, but a bunch of people (not everyone) was shitting on it because of its style and not having a lot of radio/club friendly songs like Damn (another great album).

But overall, I'm glad a mainstream artist like Jay-Z released a project like this.

I think more ppl shitted on it becuz it didn't appeal to have much replay value not saying it wasn't a great album but it just wasn't a album you could just put on repeat or at least that's the narrative I got.... That's not the case with this album you could play this back over and over with or without a club banger becuz it has a lot of replay value to it

Way more people said TPAB is a great album than not which is why it's silly to focus on the small portion of people who don't like the album. Not everyone will love an album...but it's not a bunch of people who hate TPAB

Because it wasn't...niggas take a handful of opinions and then turn it into "A bunch of people said..."

I think more ppl shitted on it becuz it didn't appeal to have much replay value not saying it wasn't a great album but it just wasn't a album you could just put on repeat or at least that's the narrative I got.... That's not the case with this album you could play this back over and over with or without a club banger becuz it has a lot of replay value to it

The bold is where most of these opinions they're talking about lie. Not that the album isn't good, but that it's not an album that you can just put on randomly because of how heavy most of the songs are.

I think with TPAB the message outweighed the music itself where with 4:44 the music and message go hand in hand so it plays better..... If that makes sense
