Mar 13, 2020 Feel like it started so much stronger than it finished. Kind of loses you when you hit the half way point. I feel like jay z’s verses pop out more than jay elec’s. Ezekiels wheel drags so f---ing bad too. Song should’ve just been cut. Feel he crumbled underneath his own hype bc this s--- ain’t ten years of hunger bruh. This your boss making money off your name and carrying your a--- through an album lol. Idk man. Just my first initial thoughts. He sounds great on a lot of the songs tho
Mar 13, 2020 This is not even remotely close to wtt Never really got the jay elec hype, he's talented but pretty boring. Hov was way more interesting here and even he couldn't interest me all the way through the album. Most songs are kinda ok I guess but not something I would revisit often. Its kinda funny and sad at the same time that shiny suit is by far my favorite song here. The Flux song and (lol) the travis scott one are cool as well tho
Mar 13, 2020 This is good. Obviously not ten years worth of hype good but better than it probably should be after such a long time. Hov is in rare form on this
Mar 13, 2020 “I gotta shine, it’s in my boood, I’m a Harlem kid, I treat my babies right, treat my ladies lady-like, hit ‘em with a remix to make sure that they play me twice” Shiny Suit Theory >>>
Mar 13, 2020 I'm all for lyrical rap that makes you think and go like "Woooaaah", but I don't see myself ever coming back to this. Maybe I'm not woke enough yet...
Mar 13, 2020 d---, reading the comments cements that JE just dug his own grave. I'm kinda not denying this but dude just dropped a fricking AWESOME album. We're just lucky that 60% was a different Jay. That said, JE remains a brilliant party of this release. However I can understand if people feel short changed. f--- that though...HOV!
Mar 13, 2020 First listen down... I need to digest this, listen a few more times. I can't help but feel disappointed in the context around this but both Hov and Jay E on absolute fire.
Mar 13, 2020 this feels like a type of album where i think its just ok, maybe give a few relistens, and never go back to it again
Mar 13, 2020 Hov def stole the show on here but I’m not mad at this. It was never going to be able to live up to the hype of a debut Jay Electronica album but it’s solid & has its moments.
Mar 13, 2020 This album is far from boring. It's an absolute masterpiece. But advertising this as a Jay Electronic album is verging on a lawsuit with Trading Standards. Not that I'm complaining, I'm always in for new Hov!
