First off, its a pretty fucking good album. Production and guests are top notch. Jay-Z spits some good flow. Its a top notch album besides its small shortcomings.

But what I love about it is how popular and mainstream it is. I mean I know its Jay and Rhianna and some other popular artists. But I consider this a long awaited legitamite hip hop. And look, people know about it and are listening to it. I just checked the top ten on itunes. The top song was Empire State of Mind. Run this Town and Young Forever were also on the top ten.

Yea I understand, this album is still a mainstream album. It was built/produced that way. But come on, this is a huge step. Finally people are listening to at least some decent stuff and not this Soulja boy shit.

I don't know maybe I'm just excited because its the first time in a long time since the stuff that I've liked has become popular.
 
i feel you

but are they all gonna turn shitty in like 2 months when every single fucking radio station plays them like 3 times an hour?

thats what happened with kid cudi here.
 
interesting, my opinion is that this is a main stream album, the quality could be better, its almost wack but i still can listen to it. his old stuff id twice as good as this
 
Jay Z is a very smart business man and he knows exactly what hes doing. as for my favorite song, its On to the next one
 
I only like ESOM, Run This Town, the track w/ Cudi and Thank You. (great beats)

I can't endure the production on the other tracks. It's utter shit.

As for lyrics, Jay isn't at his best, but he's fucking talented.
