Nigga isn’t even Muslim and still wrapped him up in a Farrakhan bow.

Yup

A global pandemic was the reason a guy who teased an album for 10 years with a small fan base is the reason it flopped

Is it a lot of rappers, just joe budden lol

Hov outrapped him on arguably only 3 songs bro

who cares hov is arguably the goat, it’s not embarrassing to get out rapped by him

and the songs are amazing it wasn’t like Jay Elec was dragging it down

APIDTA song of the decade btw

Lupe said it too

Imo hov either washed him or was even with him on the first half and then on the second half, jay electronica washed or was even with him. to me, it seems like the “hov washed jay on his own album” take comes from how the album is sequenced rather than it being more even than one would think

That's not a popular opinion bro. Its OK if you think that but most ppl don't. That was literally the general consensus leaving the week of release.

Lupe and royce also said this

It's so crazy if you type in Jay Z washed electronica thousands of tweets come up.

Type it in the other way and the same tweets about hov washing him come up.

Never listened

When Lupe say that

I’m not sure if u would enjoy it but I’d say it’s worth a listen very good album imo

On ig live when it dropped

I downloaded it and was going to but I just never got around to it

Bro hov is by far the bigger artist of the two, of course that's gonna be the narrative that comes out of the album. If kendrick and lupe dropped a collab. People would say the same

i aint say all that, its just perfectly fitting how the s***tiest and most frustrating rollout of all time ended like it did

Ruuuuuuuuuuuuun & hiiiiiiiiiiide

Dis about a Discord cult leader?

Classic fr fr.

Yeah but then they’d be lying everybody is telling the truth right now

Lol at thinking kanye would’ve turned that down if Jay suggested it

great album. now hearing it just makes me think of the early Covid days

I think you read that wrong. Kanye and Hov already colllabed and Kanye didn't get washed

No one would say that bro. Elect just isn't who we thought he was and that's ok.

Hov outrapped Jay Elec a few times, even as a JAYE stan I’ll admit that.

But what’s the point of saying Jay Z is the goat or Jay Z is top 5 then when he performs like MJ we downplay the talents of Scottie pippen (teammate) or Stockton/Payton (if you want to see Jay e / Jay z as competitors on the track)

Bottom line is all that faith / black power talk Jay z spit would’ve never came to fruition without Jay E’s foundation and Jay E’s beat + sample choices

Peaceful teaching of Rumi, but don't confuse me
You mouth off for the cameras, I make a silent movie
Now here's some jewelry
No civilization is conquered from the outside until it destroys itself from within
Pen, put a pin in that, will come back when I fin
You can't talk like I talk 'cause you ain't been where I been

Hov started off the album spittin like his life depended on it
