    Right I can see that and I respect u for ur perspective. As compelling as the personal narrative is on 4:44 something about it is just underwhelming me. Whereas tlop def has flaws I'll still dance to ultralight beam

    But as I said deep respect! Might change my mind etc

    somewhere between 3 and 3.5 mics. good, not great. it's the right direction for him at this stage but it lacks style and spontaneity.

    Love this album, feels like some true artsy spoken word dad rap but in a good way this time. Looks like to me he's made an American Gangster tier album.

    Big Fish Theory was refreshing in the age of Vince Staple's double album debut.

    It's quite subtle for a Hov album which is what threw me off at first but I'm appreciating this one more with each listen. The opulent rhymes are always his trademark but the one consistent thing about Jay is how he always can resonate with you when he gets introspective, like Lucky Me from Vol.1

    First listen thoughts from last night: One of the albums strongest and most refreshing qualities is definitely the fact that Jay-Z is practicing some restraint. The last decade he's basically been trying to fit into whatever sound is popular at the time, and usually relies on larger than life production that almost always overshadows him. Glad the album is short instead of bloated and Jay-Z is returning to production he is comfortable with, it's great to hear him make music without awkwardly trying to appeal to younger audiences. That being said, this definitely had a bit of that familiar Jay-z bravado that he's basically been coasting on the last decade which slowed the album down, but also a lot of confessionals and legitment effort that makes this feel immediately better than MCHG or BP3. Good to hear him turn inward a bit more so he actually sounds relatable, and looking forward to listening more this weekend

    Only thing that's bugging me in the mixing, other than that, the s--- slaps.
