Little red book in my father's breast pocket, the ground shook
History movin' under foot, I was on his shoulders on tenterhooks
The leader spoke slow and focused, powerful pauses
Flanked by soldiers with dead eyes
The sun catch his wire rimmed glasses
Told him roll the boulder, lo and behold
Lazarus was alive
Squintin' in the light, stinking of death
Mouth dry, red dust, a ghoulish prize
They never say what happened after, no surprise
Coulda guessed what happened to us
But at the time, mesmerized by MiG-23s in the sky
Sonic boomin'
I'll never forget the rush of pride

like what the F*** my nigga

Jay Elec verse is dope

Noname let jay elect go defcon 3 on the jews on her own record??

operating on a whole other wavelength, it’s not even fair

not really lol.

more people are probably gonna be mad at the Zelensky bar.

It's moreso the fact that you can literally predict what he was gonna say + the fact it had nothing to do with the subject matter of the song that has me just like

Talking abt Zelensky meeting with the rabbis and pope ... he truly is a follower of Farrakhan

I was so excited to talk about this album but the Entire convo about this album is about jay eject verse. Why artist do this to themselves is puzzling to me. Verse isn’t even great enough to receive this much attention.

I still don't like her rap voice after all these years, a lisper (lisp whisper)

Very well written album, superb subject matter throughout
Kendrick beef continues
I feel for that lil nigga who is the baby referenced on toxic, that song had shook similar to the first time I heard We Cry Together

Intentional choice to isolate all the (sensitive) white listeners I expect.

I respect it

I just wish the verse was better man this was the s*** I was afraid of happening in the snippet thread.

Song about black love

Elect: synagogues of satan tryna catfish the apostles

me whenever namesake comes on

Never knew she could get into that bag like that.

Noname discography looking insane.

Toxic is crazy. Probably my favorite right now.

Between that & Potentially I've never heard her so angry.

Really drives the album cover home.

Jay Electronica is no longer a god level emcee to me. I’m not falling for the oakie doke anymore. I remember I would salivate at his verses and now it seems like he lost that it factor he had.

Dude is obviously sttill super nice but something missing.

it's called having something to say.

bro has 5 topics at most to talk about on every verse now.

the character arc has been dope to witness.

Don’t Forget About Me got that spot in a vice.

Billy Woods cooking my favorite rappers.

He's phoning it in on these features he's been doing since AWT. He's defaulting to his usual subjects on songs that have nothing to do w it because it's easier for him to write about.

He did say he had writer's block on AWT and It's telling when bro is reusing portions of decade old verses that were unreleased for some of his recent feats.

That's why I really fw his verse on the rory album cause he stuck to the topic drop a good verse

going from innocent to "fuck you nigga" bruh noname is really here to stay.

Black mirror might be my favorite

and even there bro had to make a michael jackson reference.

also that beat was kicking his ass

MJ ir star wars reference just a jay quirk atp

Good ass album. That woods verse was thunderous.
