Anyways, don't be too hyped about this album, last time Jay was making hot music was 8 years ago .. you heard the result for that Em/Royce EP , very forgettable .... I expect the similar outcome for WTT , just with much better production ... plus the 4 tracks we've already heard are far from being impressive
Are you guys all smoking crack? Kanye West just has released one of the hottest mainstream hip hop albums of past few years. His production gets better with each album. I am not a big fan of jay-z but the man is a legend. He has tons of albums and all of his albums have been platinum (correct me if i am wrong). He still delivers clever rhymes and can hold his own on the mic unlike other vets who have fallen off (snoop dogg, hate to say it but ice cube as well). This is going to be a hot ass album. All the tracks I have heard personally have been banging and have more replay value than royce and em album (the only song I liked from that album was fast lane.. everything else put me to sleep).

^ Hmm, that's crazy.I thought American Gangster never made it to platinum.
