If it's a classic, that's dope. But it's hard to name something a classic after 15 hours. Sit with it a minute, see if it steers the culture a bit. Classics are about more than music.

Put classic talk aside. On first few listens, it's his best album since either AG or BA.

By comparison, on my first listens of MCHG, my reaction was "this is aight", mostly because the production was on point. My initial reaction to BP3 was that it was wack. I thought WTT was uneven. So this is the first time I've reacted this strongly to a Jay-Z album on first listen in a really long time. Lyrically and flow wise, he hasn't sounded like this in forever, and in fact, he's even developed his style a bit here in a way I haven't heard before.

And the production is great, obviously, it's No I.D., but it's more experimental than maybe any of Jay's albums ever. Which is dope.

True indeed. The last time I felt like this was AG. I can't put this over AG yet. I got 2 listens in last night. I'll see where i'm at in a week or 2. AG might be my favorite jay album though, that joint was toooooo smooth.

I think he's talking to himself.

allegedly Jay gave Ye 20M to stay loyal to Tidal. He obviously didn't

In turn Ye went on stage and ranted for 20 minutes about Jay and their relationship.

This album goes.. pleasant surprise. Jay shows the maturity of an elder statesman with this shit. Without sacrificing lyrical ability. This totally makes up for Holly Grail IMO.
