He rejected Premo's beats but the Neptunes are on this? I thought Jay-Z was smart.

If this is a Black Album (which it obviously isn't anymore, the whole concept has been thrown away) then he shouldn't have a single or any promotion. You'd think with Jay-Z who will sell regardless would just be pure hip-hop on his last album.

what i dont understand is...if he wants to take it back to the days when he first started out...why the hell is he using neptunes beats...as many said before...every idea he had for this album has been thrown out...i like this track but from what im hearing im not looking forward to much else on this cd (except the 9th wonder track)

Which is kinda like Nas' original idea for I Am before the bootlegging problem.


And I just heard the Neptunes single for this album and it's horrible.  No way I would put a song like that on an album if I was attempting to make a classic.

Since when, those two get on fine. Primo gave Dre some drum loops for the Rakim album, and Primo said that Dre introduced him to live bass and drums and shit. No problems between those two.
