I dont mind the neptunes.. Althou alot of they shit sounds ther same.. and the resutls of their collaberation on Jays last album well.. it was crap.. lol.. Hopefully the lights of Quik, Premo and Dre.. maybe even Eminem will bring out the best in Jay...

I get the impression your bein saracstic.. LOL

Jay will have a lot to live up to though.. Especally if Ra's album drops soon, and then Obies.. hes gonna have to do somethin special to beat them (thats if they are ne good lol) cause hes relasin it around the same time the album is gonna be compared to their shit.

Post by: Don Seer on July 08, 2003, 07:40:48 AM: nah i'm not... i'm just not a big jay-z fan.. never really felt anything from him.. even on the some of the real nice beats he's had...
Title: Re:Jay Z - Black Album Ad
Post by: Last Dragon on July 08, 2003, 07:46:56 AM: JAy has a lot to live up to. i always felt he put out quality work. RD was a classic in my eyes, andso was the first Blueprint. If this is going to be his last album, he better put in the effort to match, or beat, his two best albums.

Post by: smartass on July 08, 2003, 08:13:59 AM: no longer looking forward to it..he should've listened to quest..this isn't rd pt 2..what a fucking clown..
Title: Re:Jay Z - Black Album Ad
Post by: T-Dogg on July 08, 2003, 11:57:17 AM: From looking at the producers those could be 12 hot tracks, but not necessarily a hot album as a whole. An album is more than the sum of its parts IMO. I don't mind the Neptunes being there. I think Jigga sounds good with them, although their sound ain't for everybody... (U reading this, Snoop?)

Post by: infinite59 on July 08, 2003, 12:14:23 PM: Got my attention. Jay-Z has made a carear of fooling people into buying average rap albums. Maybe he'll get me on this one too. I've got his first three albums. All of them belong in the trash except for the 96' album because 96' was a great year and I like to remember it.

looks fake to me
Title: Re:Jay Z - Black Album Ad
Post by: Dj Eskimo on July 08, 2003, 12:39:45 PM: tryin to find out where its from but i presume its either the latest issue of XXL/Source or something from the Roc The Mic tour.
Title: Re:Jay Z - Black Album Ad
Post by: NewJack on July 08, 2003, 01:02:06 PM: I got a special edition XXL from the Roc The Mic tour, left it in my friend's car tho, I'll try and get it and if it's in there I'll let ya kno by the end of tonight.
Title: Re:Jay Z - Black Album Ad
Post by: PLANT on July 08, 2003, 02:57:51 PM: I havnt checked, but it could be an ad from the Rocafella website perhaps. BTW, I think this album will be bananas. Gone be off the hook, If Jays putting it out letting all those producers know they all get one track, all them producers will give Jay Z the absolute best beat they have to try and compete with each other. I think this album is gona turn out real dope and Im looking forward to it bigtime. 8)

Post by: Don Rizzle on July 08, 2003, 03:04:24 PM: i'm lookin forward to it. btw i liked his last. doesn't an advert defeat the object of the black album?

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too.. ain't no way Dre or Primo is gonna give him a leftover, if they know that there will be 12 producers with a track each..
They probably gonna give him the best of the best..
My only concern is the overall sound.. 12 different styles.. could add to the longevity, but as for the 12 tracks blending in with eachother.. hmm.

Post by: _That_Cracka_J on July 08, 2003, 10:49:52 PM: I thought the whole point of the "Black Album" is no promotion ???

Post by: NewJack on July 09, 2003, 09:22:33 AM: It's on the back page of the special edition XXL given away at the Roc The Mic tour.
