Yep, listened to it this morning driving to work. It's definitely a solid album and I don't have any of the qualms I had after listening to Yeezus. What I love about J is how he disses people using subliminal verses.

Jay-Z - Tom Ford....that beat...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Satyr]

Not so sure about Jay-Z's lyrical content on this one, especially after all those interviews Young Guru did last year about it being the next best album after the Black Album. Too much hype in my opinion. I give the album 10/10 for production, though.

WTT 2 also in the works...

 

[madtza]

Don't see anything new on this one, would've been more impressed if it was maybe 10 yrs ago and I feel like it's sub par compared to Blue Print and The Black Album, he played it safe.

Agreed on the lyrical content, you can only take the "uh uh ohhs I got so much money" so far. It's a good listen but forgettable, definitely not in best of the year contention.

J Cole - 2014 Forrest Hills Drive. Classic. No features, no singles. Just a great album.

Saw an article on the forum recently on a study proving hip-hop rots your brain.

Just sayin"

J Cole - 2014 Forrest Hills Drive I have this album on repeat, constantly. J Cole really stepped up from his first CD.

So Lupe is a label bound Immortal Technique.
