young forever is my favourite!

+1 for Empire State of Mind

ok... listened the album 40+ times, kinda got tired of it ... LOL

Bumping empire State non-stop since the album dropped..

Young Forever....

I hate how they sample popular 80s music. I'm acting like my dad. Just to show you how the producer of this track lacks the skill to be creative. Fuck. This reminds me of a pepsi commercial now.

I'm feelin the track with swizz

Top 3:
1. Real As It Gets
2. Empire State Of Mind
3. Run This Town

I like the reminder track

never believe the words coming out of a rappers mouth

empire state of mind..... Dopeness!

Empire State of Mind is a good track.

These are my top 3:
1.Run This TOwn
2.Young Forever
3.Venus VS MArs

I'd say Empire State of mind is the best! yay Alicia Keys

yep fricken sick

love the new album

my top 3 songs are
Young Forever
Real As It Gets
Empire State Of Mind

no street , too mainstream

mainstream is what sells...

ive had it for awhile and dont like any songs but it will probably grow on me

DOA is mainstream?
pretty underground to me
so is empire state of mind if that wasn't chosen as a single..too bad it's already mainstream since they performed it at vma

now that i've gvae the album a good listen it doesn't separate it's a pretty typical jay-z CD...way better than american gangster and a bit better than BP2...but it doesn't touch the original blueprint/black album/reasonable doubt at all

Lights is blinding, girls need blinders
so they can step out of bounds quick, the sidelines is
lined with casualties, who sip to life casually
then gradually become worse, don't bite the apple leaf
Caught up in the in-crowd, now you're in style
End of the winter gets cold, en vogue, with your skin out
City of sin, it's a pity on the wind
Good girls gone bad, the city's filled with them
Mami took a bus trip, now she got her bust out
Everybody ride her, just like a bus route
Hail Mary to the city, you're a virgin
And Jesus can't save you, life starts when the church end
Came here for school, graduated to the high life
Ball players, rap stars, addicted to the limelight
MDMA got you feelin' like a champion
The city never sleeps, better slip you an Ambien


swap "ball players, rap stars" for gangstars and I swear to god that verse is written for Kelowna

crazy how Jay doesnt write anything down and just spits off the dome

his verses in young forever are pretty fucking awful. shoulda saved that beat for someone else

why do most people consider Jay-Z one of the best? His voice is horrible..and it seems like he just talks when he raps...his flow is so boring.

you must be new to rap

do you fools listen to music or do you just skim through it :confused:
