OUT NOW Jay Electronica "A Written Testimony" Album Thread

[SeaSnake]

I'm listening to this shit shaking my head...

Niggaz not liking this album is everything that's wrong with the world
..

Dope beats, dope Rhymes, what more do y'all want?

I thonk people like the album. Just it wasn’t what was expected. You want a Beans album with Freeway in every track? (Bet it would be fire af tho)

 

[SeaSnake]

On shiny suit theory I feel Like Elec didn’t keep the same energy throughout. He should be ripping every song before this to shreds. Still one of my favorite songs by him

The funniest shit is sum of yall think your novice opinions hold jus as much weight as experts in the field lol

would you give a surgeon pointers on how to do surgery cuz you've seen a few seasons of Grey's anatomy?

Music is subjective

Being a surgeon is not





Try a better analogy big homie

 

[SeaSnake]

Niggas trying to grandstand in this thread cause an album not getting the reaction THEY feel it should.








“Nba 2k was trash this year” - random nigga


“Do you know anything about video game programming or animation!?!?

 

[BRIAN B.]

this is silly. When artists make music to sell records they open themselves up to criticism. The opinion of their peers is cool but you making a product to be consumed. Are consumers supposed to give Lupe more respect than their own ears?

experts in the field are the consumers and lovers of the craft. period

smh

show me where I said you have to like it?

I haven't heard the album yet can't speak on it

but as consumers you either like it or not, otherwise if you knew better & could do better you'd be a supplier

& most of yall ain't master rappers

so as far as degree of difficulty structurin bars & the levels (or tiers as Lupe said), everyone's opinion doesn't hold the same weight

 

[SeaSnake]

We wanted Solomon’s Temple level shit

GFK ain’t a damn grandmaster btw

The hell you doing in here then if you ain't listen to the album yet

 

[12bitCounsel]

Lupe said you can’t accurately judge the mastery of rapper ( which is a harmony of technical and creative ability) unless you a master. Not that you can’t have an opinion on his songs or album.

We wanted Solomon’s Temple level shit

[SeaSnake]
