[QUOTE=GOBB]Good writeup :cheers:[/QUOTE]
Thanks for checkin it out. Glad u enjoyed the album.
I don't understand all these faux ass artists, critics and ppl who think they have an elevated musical palette knockin it for being 'commercial' or 'corporate' just because Jay-Z used his vast resources to promote and get reputable producers. The final product is damn good.

Critics and artists need to differentiate themselves somehow and playing the pure art angle is just one option. I dont agree with that as a criticism but its not a hard motive to understand.
Re: Magna Carter Holy Grail
I downloaded and listened to it.
I'm not really feeling it but I was never a Jay-z.
Re: Magna Carter Holy Grail
I give this album 3/10, Gay-Z's WORST PROJECT.
Re: Magna Carter Holy Grail
album has been on repeat since it leaked... I am starting to believe there are subliminal illuminati messages in these tracks for real... too infectious.

Jay Z isnt with the Illuminati. I think you are listening a bit too deeply in the lyrics.

nah bro, I was just joking. I didn't actually mean that. On another note, Jay-z and Justin Timberlake were in Toronto yesterday for the legends of summer tour, did a trayvon tribute to Forever young, pretty dope.

I could have got a pair of front rows for $390, but passed on it. I dont mind Justin Timberlake, but I wouldnt pay to see him. If it was WTT2 though...

[QUOTE=heavensdevil]Yeezus is not a rap album, and should not be compared to this. You pretty much agreed with what I said... hot beats and Hov spitting about what he knows best... [B]what more can you ask for?[/B][/QUOTE]
How about lyrical depth? Once you listen to the songs enough times to remember the lyrics it starts to become really one dimensional.
