Official Watch the Throne Thread...

[tompetrez3]

can somebody tell jay z its 2011 not 2010. this nigga stay riding trends. i thought he was an innovator. first he tries to recreate BMF with HAM now he is making a nothing on you part 2 with a nigga that Bob did a song with LAST YEAR. WTT seem so fake and phony this will surely be a let down. and co sign with wordsr. Jay Z trying to act like niggas dont remember them first 2 singles they dropped. they can reword the shit all the want but at the end of the day you have the tranny king and the gayfish telling us to watch the throne while they make hip pop records with bruno and beyonce. keep in mind on BP3 jay z duped all these faggots by railroading T Pain career and clearly said "niggas singing too much" "get back to rappin". now look at the camel contridicting himself. Pop Producer+Pop Artists=Pop Song which makes WTT a pop album. They the niggas that billed this album as a return to hip hop and you dumb motherfuckers fell for it AGAIN.

and Bruno Mars choruses never fail to chart smh... this was a smart idea.

Wouldve been nice to see a better single than HAM by just them though..guess that shit unrealistic to make a song that charts on the radio in 2011. Big hooks only shit that work.

This song is pretty much guaranteed to debut high just based off the names on the song:

Beyonce is about to drop a new album. Even though this is just a feature, it's new Beyonce music for the fans and builds hype for the new album.

Bruno Mars has some big singles w/ "Grenades" and "Just The Way You Are" on top of being featured on "Nothin' On You" and Travie McCoy's "Billionaire". Not to mention, he co-wrote Cee Lo's current smash that has been riding high on the charts most of the year and late last year.

Add that to Jay Z and Kanye being superstars themselves and that's pretty much a formula for a smash single.

how the fuck are they superstars when they need 2 non hip hop acts to give them chart position. and why you so worried about chart position when you the main nigga always whining that the radio is wack dissing other motherfuckers on the radio now you wanna talk that chart bullshit. so you basically telling me you need everyone to like it before you embrace it. u on some follower bullshit right there

 

[FyHunnit]

H.A.M was the first single off Watch the Throne...

lol at niggas tryna act like it didnt count because it flopped like saggy titties

Heh ..

This is JAY FUCKIN Z AND KANYE we are talking about, they can put out anything together and people will take notice.

You talk as if they are some struggling artists, Jay and Kanye could put out a dope song and it will go no1, however they chose to put out doo doo pop shit liek this because thats what they are feeling right now

its safe to say these niggas are on some pop gay shit and rap music dont do it for dem anymore

 

[Kame]

Haven't heard the album...but niggas (Jay + Ye) have to stop billing shit as straight hip hop albums, and changing their minds to shit they arent expecting, and maybe received badly beacuse of it. Just say yall putting out an album.. dont label the shit when you arent finished/ Yeah they artists and have to right to do what they want but still....

Niggas werent feeling Ham and that didnt make top 25, All of the Lights at this exact moment has barely cracked the top 20. and its been there 16 weeks. Runaway stayed in the top 10 for a week and dropped below. Even Wayne cant make a single on hsi own that makes the top 10 and stays there. Ye is on that Katy Perry song, and that did go number one...but that isnt his song. Its Perry's. Hip hop aint on the charts like it used. AT least the people we think of. That shit might change, but as of now nah them niggas cant existon the radio charts without pop hooks

Show goes on = pop hook and beat
et remix = pop hook and beat
etc etc

 

[andre_1024]

I'm sure it'll be straight..

 

[Kame]

HAM debuted at 23 my bad... but it just dropped from there

 

[Kame]

Shit I just hate than nigga Bruno Mars that much though....imma give it a fair listen.. but that I just dislike that mufucca with a passion

 

[Authentic100]

Jay-z was too damn old to be making a song like HAM

 

[andre_1024]

Why the hate for Bruno Mars? I'm more annoyed with Beyonce being on there..

They are superstars because they could sell just based on their name and own merit which is why I initially said the song is calculated, which it is. I am not worried about chart position, I was merely stating that the because of the names on it, it would be hard for it not to be hit, which again goes back to my point of it being calculated. You obviously have me mixed up, because I don't recall ever saying that the radio was wack. Personally, I don't care what position it hits on the charts. If it's dope then it's dope. If it's garbage, then it's garbage. There's not a chart for that, only the ear.

I agree. I think dude is pretty dope.

 

[rip.dilla]

I'd love it if the album had no features.

Just Ye's production and him and Jigg rapping

It'd make more sense than bringing in features and it'd have that hip hop feel to it

I mean, these guys have done it all. They shouldn't be bothered or worried about charting and shit, more especially Jay

Just drop a solely duo collabo effort on the whole album

 

[dontdiedontkillanyon]

LOL, Bruno be getting people vex

I just think it's funny how they're claiming this will be the first single, like they're trying to airbrush the shitacular embarrassment of H.A.M. from history and all living memory

 

[stupot0607]

Yeah Beyonce & Jay songs annnoy me, every one of them. my expectation for this record is through the floor. haha

still give it a listen though.

i have hope

 

[Food & Liquor]

Am I the only one looking forward to this? I thought Beyonce was awesome on See Me Now so it can work and Bruno Mars ain't that bad

How much of this is Ye actually producing though? We've had Luger and now Bhasker; maybe he'll just be on co-production? Not doubting Bhasker though, his work has been solid from what I've heard

 

[coolc31]

Cats are complaining about a song they haven't even heard yet. It might be dope to me. It might not be. I'll give it a listen and see. I liked H.A.M. so to each his own. I just find it hard to complain about something I've never heard.

Exactly, I liked H.A.M. and so do most people I know. Just think they should have cut the song off after Jay verse, didnt need all that extra. But yea to each its own.
