You're serious with the Conway thing :lol :lol :lol

But I agree with your assessment. I am cutting some portion of like 6 tracks on the album.

Dude, I'm going to edit the album to my liking, lol. On the Conway thing, it comes from G.W. Bush JR. That's what he called him in national TV, lol. What's funny is that Conway is a cheap department store, lol.

Saw Hov on his way out. Me: "Is Jay E gonna have an album soon?" Jay: "Yes!" Me: "1st quarter?" Jay: "Yes!" "Can I hold you to that?" "Yes!"

What's the deal with this long ass tracks? And why the hell did he let Rick Ross on the Devil In A New Dress, track? Homeboy ruined it. And I thought Conway West was doing a Boom Bap album with all this talk of Primo, RZA and other producers saying is the truth....Not feeling this at all. The production is all over the place, his doing to much on certain tracks..If you want to go with a different style of producing, stick to a theme...Like the Roots did in their new album. One of the best albums produce this year, it has a great flow. Conway West is falling into the same path as RJD2 and DJ Shadow in production. I didn't include Danger Mouse, because his rock projects have been really good so far. Shit, KNO went with a Euro influence sound but still manage to capture a solid sound that wasn't a mess(Like the Runaway track)

And apparently, Conway West discover something call "Distortion" because he went heavy with it for this album...Shit, I almost didn't recognize Raekwon on "Gorgeous"(Love this track BTW)"Lost in the World" was greatly produce, but again, too long..That breakdown should have come sooner. Conway West needed someone to call him down on this album. Look at Lucas and Kojima for example, they have nothing but "Yes" man around them, and that's not good. And that's what Conway West has around them.

Man, I'm a big Lupe stan and even I admitted that The Show Goes On sucks. SLR and Go To Sleep are leagues above that coonery. LISTEN to SLR. TELL ME IT'S NOT DOPE. If you say no you're not invited to my clubhouse you jive turkey.



Yeah, you're right. I remember nahright posting something recent with Lupe and they actually called him "Loopy Fiasco." :lol

I don't know. As long as he released good shit, I'll be a fan. I hope Lasers is good too, but The Show Goes On was ... abysmal. I'm hoping the other tracks from the album are better. I'm still waiting for State Run Radio and Beautiful Lasers.

Wait people don't like the Show Goes On? I mean its not the best song ever, not the best Lupe song, not the best Song of the Year, or any TITLE you might assign to songs but wtf its a good intro to the album song. Its not like he is rapping about bitches, money, or how gangsta he is. The beat is radio friendly but thats about it.

lol @ me waking up today and seeing every hip hop site completely gushing over Friday Nights Lights, and Kanye's album. I feel like I'm missing something with these 2 releases. I honestly am not feeling either one that much.

Oh well.

IMO, the beat is a real disappointment and I'm not a huge fan of Consequence either (just throw Q-Tip on the track)...But Friday Night LIghts and Kanye's album are fantastic. Next thing you are gonna tell me is that you don't like Lady Killer.

Does this mean we'll ever see an album now?

This deal makes no sense. Jay Elec has zero mainstream appeal. He's not young and handsome, he doesn't really do swagger rap and he's on some next level new age hippy shit all the time.

He makes good music?

Trust me, I don't WANT to not enjoy these 2 projects, but they just aren't clicking with me. I definetely am not calling them "bad" but I just don't get it. Maybe I'm broken.:lol

Chain Heavy needs a fucking harder/scarier beat. Something loud and just hard as shit. A lex luger-esque beat. Something Waka and Ross would feel at home on.

Most likely he likes it. I was JUST complaining that I hated Talib's voice yesterday, but I loved his contribution to Chain Heavy.

I'm eating crow right now. Tastes like chicken...

Damn, J.Cole's new mixtape is fire. Dude is really good, thanks for all the recommendations for The Warm Up in this thread. Been listening to a lot of his other stuff, he just is so consistent with it.

I notice Just Blaze hasn't said anything about the Roc Nation deal; wonder what he thinks about it.
Click to expand...
Just Blaze can barely run his own label, remember Saigon?

He'll prolly contribute some more beats based on one-hit wonders.

Vizzy Zone is hopefully a fluke misstep

He posted about there being new music next week. Probably just another freestyle.

I like Vizzy Zone (Familiar/Isn't It Awesome/Best is Yet to Come are all really good.) I wanna see XV win.
