[00000000]

Can't wait!

 

[1440ski]

Has anyone been able to find a leaked track listing?

 

[whoa-dere]

"the idea is to really finish the album and drop it" you don't say

 

[Spinoza]

did you hear those beats though. sound wicked

 

[lukewalnuts]

can't wait, some real musical geniuses in that group...

don't want to sound stupid but who is the guy with the beard

 

[Chubz.]

possibly album of the year right here.

 

[blazer258]

cant wait to see what he comes up with, style sounds the same and the beats seem on point

 

[Rafiki]

soooo much good music is coming out between june and july. have a feeling this'll be the best

 

[captainslack]

I think the emphasis is on just dropping it all together rather than letting a few singles out before the whole album.

but it does sound dumb

 

[HWW]

Rick Rubin

 

[Spinoza]

^ AKA the fucking man.

 

[Brenone]

Not to mention the founder of Def Jam Records and one of the early architects of hip hop music.

 

[Mr.Sloth]

Ahhh fuck yea

 

[Spinoza]

i remember reading a rolling stone article about him a few years ago. dude is living the life. and is super interesting

this isnt the exact article, but still sick http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/rick-rubin-behind-the-beard-20011217

 

[danderson.]

Rick Rubin.

This is gonna be real good. Jay's still got it.

 

[Heart]

This, Kanye and J cole in the same year... DOPE

 

[turducken]

What have we done wrong to be burdened with such horrible music....

 

[youngdtay]

Not saying I disagree with your opinion, since I don't when it comes to those two, but it's not really your call to make about what's horrible and what isn't.

 

[1337]

stoked

 

[AwR]

dude rick rubin is so cool

 

[Inline.]

*modern music

If you think of a good album, chances are Rick Rubin had a hand in it. This list is crazy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Rubin_production_discography

 

[Heart]

 

[SFB]

i really hate all current hip hop but ive always like jay zs stuff.

 

[waveydavey]

Extremely pumped about his new album. The beats are insane

 

[Toaster-Tony]

Pumped for this, those beats sounded awesome.

Also, I fucking loved your post in the "Why do parents drop so much money on their kid's cars" thread where you quoted Heart of the City, I just had got done listening to it when I saw it.

 

[BChaps1209]

that video made absolutely no sense

 

[vermontana]

God damn, I can't get over how ill that first beat is.

 

[Auzy]

On iTunes it says it's expected July 9th now....sad day

 

[will_powder]

Pharell's in on errything right now

 

[Ben.]

I wont have time till after the holiday weekend to give it a good listen, but theres "leaks" or whatever you want to call it of the stream Galaxy owners had access too. I think its just 160 kbps but if you dont wanna wait, its out there.

[whoa-dere]

dling right now, heard a sample it doesn't sound low quality at all

 

[DirkaDirka]

Jay Z sucks at life, and so does his wife. Cocky, obnoxious people. He's way past his time and is using Obama to gain popularity these days. That is all.

 

[whoa-dere]

meh

 

[Calb3rt]

 

[Ribss.]

I'm normally not a big Jay-Z fan but those beats sounded dope. Hopefully his lyrics can keep up.

 

[Spinoza]

Only youtubing from mobile at work right now. Wicked so far though.

Oldscool jayZ sound in this one: http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=b8X2PuIue_0&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Db8X2PuIue_0

he's dropping N bombs for fun

 

[BornyHusby]

La Familia is the best song on MCHG imo, but damn. Jay-z dit an awesome job on this one.

 

[JeremyB]

Thanks for the link, i'm also at work!

 

[Mathieu.fr]

Picasso Baby, Oceans, Tom Ford..: so good.

And BBC ! Perfect song for a summer edit.

 

[Byron_tha_gr8]

i just i just got it on my galaxy s4 for free

 

[1337]

1 song in and I have super high hopes. So sick!

 

[Mag]

Am I the only one who actually dislikes this? it's just boring me for some reason, maybe it's just my mood.

 

[Swankmaster_Raww]

putting out a commercial like this was kind of bad for the album because now everybody is hype and thinks it is gonna be amazing and if it isnt an instant classing like Blueprint or Reasonable doubt then everybody is gonna think it is way worse than maybe it actually is. However, the initial sales will explode due to this. Also not sure if naming it Magna Carta Holy Grail was a good thing for the expectations either, I mean the two things arent even related.

 

[bo0b]

Rick rubin didnt actually help produce it he was just there for listening sessions. Gonna dl after work.

 

[danbrown]

he'll never top reasonable doubt

 

[Daski]

Stupid name, agreed, but the album is GREAT. Not amazing, but still really, really good

 

[Daski]

No, "Yeezus" should have been titled "Ego Instead of Songs."

 

[Mag]

what's your favourite song from it?

 

[Kazabazua]

Production sounds top notch, that first beat was filthy.
