I get that Jay Elect gotta defend his music. But he gotta understand why people have a problem w the album. Is a good project, but niggas been waiting for this dude SOLO album for years and he decides to jump in the ring w arguably one of the greatest MCs of all time after a 10 year delay and make it his DEBUT.
BTW, Jay elec need to put more material out before he gets compared to rappers like Joe that put out ALOT of shit

lol nah fam. Niggas on here till this day think I hate one of my favorite rappers (Nas) cuz I called out his last 2 weak projects.
Read the first few pages of the wayne thread, I was ready to kill Funeral.
I'll never understand the stan shit, cuz you're doing yourself and the artist a disservice by hyping up shit you know is trash. They're just gonna continue droppin more trash.

Nothing. I'm not sure what prompted the convo I'm just saying....Elect may have never heard a Buddens project
Never listened to any Drake project outside of Thank Me Later
Or was that for Elect?

I don’t even like Joe and I agree. Dude actually dropped material. Elect don’t even got over 40 songs

J.A.P.A.N.
Unbiased listener here just joining the convo. I don’t think he should have called this a solo album. Definitely a joint collaboration. Dope album, but I would think an MC of the caliber people make him out to be would do their own project for a debut, not one supported by arguably the greatest rapper of all time.
And I thought his content was dope, but his flow and delivery was lacking at times. Luckily I can enjoy it because I’m not caught up on shit like that, but those are factors in how good an MC is.
I expected much better from him given his hype, but he was solid. Just solid though, not God MC level.

Nah you dont understand.
Out of Joe's own mouth, there was a missed opportunity for him to sign with Rocafella.
Jay E has trumped Joe's music career with damn near zero effort. Whether or not he deserves a Roc Nation contract and tons of Hov verses, point is he got it all and Joe, even in retirement, feels slighted. Props to him for admitting it is "rapper hate" and not real man hate.

Far as Jay goes, he need to back up all that "Say my name, WW3" talk.
Peter Rosenberg is one thing but Joe Budden been lowkey calling out Elect for over a year. He want that smoke.

if you are paying attention, people arent saying that the songs are wack.
they are saying that they are disappointed that they waited 10+ years for a solo album from dude and instead got a joint project with Hov and they think that Hov outrapped him.
thats a majority of people's problem with the album and i'm not debating those points. be mad at that if thats something you want to be mad at.
nobody is talking about what was SAID on album for real, if we keeping it real.

Check yourself, what percentage is you?
Exactly. They rapped about the same shit on "We Made It". That got hyped cause it was actually dope. The drop off from that song to this album is crazy. This album is mediocre bars from both rappers and mediocre beats.
