Watch the Throne

Listening right now...

Gotta admit I'm not too hyped about this. Jay kinda bores me and Kanye is better behind the boards. I'll definitely give it a listen though, thanks for the heads up, I'd forgotten all about it.

The collab I'm actually pumped for is J Cole and Kendrick Lamar if and when it actually comes out.

Really like the track "Why I love You", and the album in general. The EGO is just so crazy from these two, and the production (being a producer) is just fucking crazy. The No ID produced track really makes me go.

Snowmayne · 08-10-2011, 02:11 AM

its weird, I see a lot of rap heads that I normally agree with on all types of issues, subjects, topics and share the same favorite artists as of whom are really loving this album, but honestly for me its just meh even after 3-4 listen throughs.

myxomatosis · 08-10-2011, 07:04 PM

Word aidz. I'm not sure that I've seen heads I agree with saying it's good, but I've seen lots of people I thought had decent taste giving it what seems to be undeserved praise. Don't get it. Granted I haven't legit sat and listened, but the handful of tracks I've sat down with have merely ranged from absolute garbage (Liftoff) to mediocre.

It's hyped but with good reason. It's produced fucking wonderfully. I don't know if they have awards for best production, but this album would be hands down the winner as far as I can tell.
Lyrically it's all right, there's a few filler songs and a couple that I simply don't like.
But the ones that are good, I find, are really damn good.

Common ft. Nas "Ghetto Dreams" (Official Video) - YouTube

Digging this collab much more than WTT.

Best Review Ever:

Ghostface Killah: “Watch The Throne” (Album Review) « Raps&Hustles

Quote:

11. Made In America (ft. Frank Ocean) – First of all son….Lionel Richie called from 1986 n said he wants his song back yo. Word. Sade jus holla’d on twitter to say this shit is soft as fuck namsayin. I think Elton John wants to conceive babies to this joint b. Drake said he gon soak in his lotion pool to this shit rite here for like a week son. I think Wiz Khagina is scissorin wit Amber Rose to this shit rite now as we speak yo. I heard this shit gon be used for the next Gwyneth Paltrow movie too. I dont kno how the same nigga that did Who Gon Stop Me had anything to do wit this shit but apparently he did nahmean. This shit sounds like two niggas hang glidin over the ocean together at sunset holdin hands son. I think this is bout to be on Yung Berg’s yoga playlist. I cant fuck wit this shit at all b. This shit is like audio lesbian comin out my speakers son.

huge LOL @ Wiz Khagina

Grieves · 08-12-2011, 01:33 PM

audio lesbian...

myxomatosis · 08-12-2011, 01:45 PM

LOL @ that whole review, but also at "First off they need to not be actin like Otis Redding is a “featured” artist on this shit. Since when do niggas sample a dude n then call that shit a feature. Son aint even been alive for like 40 years b. " & "This shit also got The Godfather of Soul’s voice all over it…but they aint put “featuring James Brown” on the tracklist for some reason. Guess they missed that one."

I take it back, lol hard at

Quote:

"Ayo Snoop Budden…nobody gon need to hear you gettin ya “One hand in the air if you dont really care” on durin the hooks to no joints ever ever ever again son. Jus go back to contaminatin whats left of Alicia Keys n stop cashin in those favors niggas owe you to get on these high profile joints you malnourished ass lookin muthafucka. Son been urinatin wackness on these songs for years now b…. so can we jus acknowledge that the nigga got no business actin like he kno how to put together a hook now n stop lettin this whippet lookin muthafucka get near a mic?"

More of his thoughts on Swiss beats:

SWISS BEATS Aka Snoop Budden. Aka the rap Pau Gasol. Aka the McRib of hip hop. Aka the human yeast infection. Get this niggas dusty ass the fuck outta here already. Son cant contain his softness. The niggas favorite color is rainbow. The nigga only has two facial expressions: Jus been raped or bout to rape somebody. The nigga always either looks like he bout to violate a broad/nigga or he looks like the picture on a missing dog poster. This nigga made the same beat for the first 4 years of his career son. Now he jus the only nigga alive tryin to duplicate Diddy Dirty Money. Get him the fuck outta here.[/B]

Grieves · 08-15-2011, 02:05 PM

that shit is gold

he only has two faces

jus been raped or bout to rape somebody

favorite color is rainbow...

myxomatosis · 08-15-2011, 06:25 PM

lol @ the above. However as much as I might dislike Swizz or his music that nigga always gets to pull his trump card which is that he's getting steady pussy from Alicia Keys. Can't really argue with that.
