What...people don't like this song?
It's probably my favorite from WtT, the beat, the chorus and Frank Ocean?
C'mon son.

as far as I can tell from the response from my carefully crafted criticism, the first and only line of defense is "2 deep 4 u"
guess kanye is the kojima of rap

That intro is outrageous, since when do protestors beat up the police in their riot gear?
Its almost always the other way around.
I do love Watch the Throne however.

Really dude? You didn't even bother to listen to it, you literally said "lol autotune must be for hipsters". Fine if you don't like it, but stop asking people to make you like something you are already determined to hate.
So is the fact that that Kanye and Jay remain "anonymous" in the video intentional? I'm not really sure the video and the song fit that well though.

well okay.
Yeah I used to like him quite a bit. American Gangster is a personal favorite of mine.
half-assed attempt to be relevant
thanks
Just like Jay-Z talent.

They don't fit at all. Which is the problem. The second I saw it I shook my head.

Riots and protests represent one of the larger world-wide happenings right now. Whether Iran, Syria, Egypt, Lybia, Saudi Arabia, Greece, Spain, the United States..protests and riots have been a constant in news cycles for the last 1.5 years or so. It's only reasonable that those images and likenesses find their way to sober music and videos.
happy to help. I clicked on the middle part of Jay's verse and said, "what? woooooooow." several times.
My mind is still blown away.
Reminds me of the good ol' 90s Wu-Tang days when you needed a dictionary and encyclopedia to decipher the real meaning of the lyrics.
I soured a LOT on MBDTF after the first listen, this just makes me afraid to even try Watch The Throne.

it really did get worse over time, i only listen to about 2 or 3 songs now. this isn't one of them, autotune kills it.
how dare you listen to the song but ignore the lyrics

just in time for E3.
maybe one from when the cop riding the horse smacked the guy in the head with a baton too. lol
Where do you see illuminati satanic shit in the video?
The lyrics are fuck god we are the holy trinity and such. (I'm as Atheist as the next guy and I'm just trying to see what they're going for with their shit.)

I was THERE during the filming of this! Prague, downtown, next to my apt.
Thought it was an actual protest demonstration, then some Americans told me it was filming for some Jay Z, Kanye West music video.
Lots of smoke.

We'd say you have your own taste in what you're looking for in hip-hop and music in general. Different than some of us, in that we can enjoy *all of it* within its own context, time and place.
I wouldn't want Wacka playing in the background when I'm reading. I wouldn't want to hear Church In The Wild at the club. Time and place for everything.
to be fair nicki minaj has a big ass
I like all of those rappers and WTT
I'm joking with the Illuminati stuff guy.

click on the yellow lyrics to get the meanings. If you don't think what's being alluded to, discussed and suggested isn't deep, it's because you didn't know what they were really saying in the first place.

if you were to do just a little research on that, you would find A LOT of music artists now share that "belief". many have worn satanic shirts, and shirts featuring aleister crowley (the godfather of the occult) and his sayings. jay-z in particular has his whole fashion line (rocawear) with symbols alluding to crowley's beliefs.
I just like their shit. Soulja is all like I look so good. Flocka says make dat ass clap. And I heard Gucci say bingo once.
i'm reading over this and it's about as clever as those dudes in college who like to do poetry jam
in fact, this is literally a poetry jam over a shitty beat
yes yes cult of the me/it's not actually satanism but using lucifer/satan as a symbol of freedom blah blah
did kanye read the summaries of this shit on the rotten.com library articles too or what
maybe i should become a famous hipster rapper too and rap about gnosticism and the snake who actually gave us freedom from god's ignorance

I really like this video and WTT on the whole, to be honest; other than Kanye's mumble-singing on Liftoff and Swizzy's annoying shit on Welcome to the Jungle I thought it was pretty awesome.
Romain Gavras does good work.
