lonesomexloveus Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 i had to google this. i figured their collective ego would explode from working together for long enough to make an album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexH. Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 This rules. Best rap album of the year for sure. First half is better than the second, but overall I'd put it on the level of MBDTF, and leagues ahead of Jay's last album. Also inb4 Kanye is a douche, rap sucks, they don't play real instruments, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiggs1441 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 This is a great album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cesar11 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I'm loving this so hard. Also really glad "The Joy" is on this. Well, on the deluxe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acorren1 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 This album is so damn good. I've been listening to it all night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 i cant say if i actually like this album yet, because i could very well just be saying "zomg its new kanye!" but it could very well end up being one of my favorite albums of the year. one thing. one.. small thing. the way beyonce says "stars" makes me cringe. all 9,000 times.

j4m35 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 pretty excited to listen to this. only other rap album that got my attention this year was goblin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdwell Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 i dig it thusfar...sounds like a Kanye record with Jay Z on it more so than a Jay Z record with Kanye on it to me...just production style and feel of the music...but I like it, gonna keep in rotation and see if it grows on me like MBDTF did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santa Bateman Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Not a fan of Kanye or Jay-Z atm. Only the old stuff so probably won't listen to this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrangerwithcandy Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I feel like this album is underwhelming. Kanye is ok on it but I still can't stand Jay-Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Downloaded and listened to a few tracks. Seems like there is a lot of Black Pride lyrics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostapostle Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 far from the best rap album of the year This. This feels more like a mixtape not an album. No continuity. Songs are all over the place. Its good, but I was definitely hoping for more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
000000 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 working on my first listen of this, and it's pretty solid so far. been on a huge Kanye kick lately so this is helping that haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lipmyreeds Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Not sure why, but for some reason when I cued this up last night, I was completely underwhelmed 3 songs in a row. I'm going to call it a false start due to how tired I was/the headspace I was in and try again later. I have to be in a certain mood to enjoy most hip hop these days anyhow, so it's not surprising.

fitterhappier Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I thought it was mediocre at best. It's kinda sad to listen to some of these terrible verses by Jay-Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
