so diddy producing ur album is going to make it ” gangsta” ………….give me a break, what i dont understand is jay havin southern producers unless he aint tryin to brick in da south, which h will sell , so do u jay fadeaway from the gimmick

I LOVE THE PRODUCTION LIST!

CAN’T WAIT FOR THE ALBUM!!

Already the G.O.A.T

You I cant wait for the album this shit is going to be fire but I got some music for peole sample trying to get some constructive critcism tell me what you think

I don’t know y some people think Jay’s album gonna be wack cause Diddy produced most of it. Diddy and his team produced most of Life After Death, Harlem World, No Way Out. Those albums were well produced albums. So, u know that this shit is gonna be hot.

Weezy go kill it!

HOW CAN JAY NOT HAVE NO TIMBALAND BEAT ON HERRE… HE GOTTA HAVE HIM!! JUS LIKE WITH KINGDOM COME, IT WAS GOOD BUT IT WAS DEFINITELY MISSING A TIMBALAND BEAT.. HE NEEDS A BEAT FROM HIM TO MAKE THIS CD BE OVER THE TOP.. BUT STILL JAY MY FAV RAPPER AND THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME AND HE’LL STILL HAVE A GOOD CD SOO FUCK ALL THE HATERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

NO-ID THATS WATS UP.

MAN-UP SQUAD!

The reason why Kanye didnt do any beats is because hes away on his world tour. In a interview Jay said he reached out to Kanye, Ye sent him a couple of tracks but he wanted him to be there for one of those one on one type beats. The album is going to be good.

first off let me say that everyone is entitled to their opinion, but you young dudes just don’t get it…

For all of the negative comments here I would like to say this… For the longest time Jay has experimented with different sounds and rhymes styles. He as always said that he could be more complex and intricate with his rhymes and subject matter but that shit don’t sell. He has always complained about having to dumb down his lyrics. That was the point he was making in ingnorant shit. He also referenced that fact on the Black Album.

So for all those dudes who really listen to music and don’t just skim through it, you would know that Jay is at the point in his career when he no longer has anything to prove. He doesnt really have to worry about selling records or catering to radio. True hip-hop heads have been begging Jay to show and prove what he was talking about. The movie American Gangster inspired him to do that.

A song like Blue Magic might seem weak at first listen but if you really break down every line you will understand what I mean. Jay has been making music that pleases both his true fans and the casual listener for years. Now he is going to show what he meant when he said, “Honestly I wanna rhyme like Common Sense; but I did 5 mil–I ain’t been rhymin’ like Common since.”

CATCH UP NI@@AS!!!!

I have no comment about diddy producing if he does (I wasn’t there so I can’t say anything) but “I kno what girls like” sucked ass. I was mad at Jay for that song. I think I turned off the cd thru half of his verse. Don’t get me wrong I’m a huge fan even tho I think he was better before. I want an album better than the blueprint and the black album. I miss that jay-z. And kanye didn’t produce? I’m shocked. I like hearing kanye. And weezie…I guess he accepted he isn’t as great as he thought he was. I’m curious to hear the album. Jay will still get my support so I can’t wait. Holla Hov!

This is JZs worst shit ever by a land slide, he went out and got all the namebrand producers and then put diddies wack ass shit on there, I use to ride all day every day for jay but get off his dick fools, this is horrible, I’m loyal but not this loyal.

And sure he’s going to make money and sell records, but that doen’t make it good, I might download a track or two for the fuck of it.

And I’m 27 fuck faces so don’t come on here sayin, OH’ the youngins don’t know shit and all that, I herd his first shit over a decade ago and now I’m just hearin shit.

What? Where’s Kanye? I’m disappointed.

Smiling in my face, glad to break bread with the god
Wearing Jaz chains, no tecs, no cash, no cars
No jail bars Jigga, no pies, no case
Just Hawaiian shirts, hanging with little Chase
You a fan, a phony, a fake, a pussy, a Stan
I still whip your ass, you thirty-six in a karate class You Tae-bo hoe,

From what I heard (Snippets) the album sounds like a mix of Blueprint, Reasonable Doubt, and Kingdome Come. Its gonna be dope only real Jigga fan accept shit for what it is and don’t complain shit the nigga money got bigger over the years what you expect him to still talk about slanging on the Marcy benches. But he still remembers those days thats why he came back, again. Peace

lmao yeah it tru trying to be gangsta n herb ass diddy producing half ur album and like BOL say when was the last time this dude said anything worth quoting with all those producer who would go platinum then ya wanna hate on cam and jim and dipset they never had producer or promotion n put out banger this shit is more commercial than anything i seen

I’m riding for Jay on this one. Call me a dick rider if u want but I appreciate good music.

Jay didnt work with the producers you niggaz say are missin because their sound didn’t fit the concept of the album… Why does everyone on this site get their panties up in a bunch over a list of producers? Jay has worked with every top producer in the game… He has the right to try something different if he chooses– he aint got shit to lose.

Why are ya’ll concerned about beats? Lyrical content outshines beats any day. This is why hip hop is considered dead.

Most haters on here from the soutn and can’t appreciate someone that raps about anything other than a new dance. People hatin in NY hatin because…well…even Jesus wasn’t wanted by the Jews…

Not too many legit rappers from the south. Nobody raps about anything that makes sense anymore. I’m glad I grew up listening to WU, BIG, Pac, Jay, Scarface, and a few others, nowadays who is it??…Souljah Boy Tellem??…Supersoak THAT hoe.

The album is going to be dope. Better than most the shit out right now. No one is on his level. Not even CLOSE to his level. Weezy had ghostwriters for The Carter and a different one for The Carter II. He doesn’t belong in the same sentence.

H-O-V-A

“A wise man told me, don’t argue with fools/
cause people from a distance can’t tell who is who/
so stop the childish shit/
nigga I’m grown/
Please leave it alone/
don’t throw rocks at the throne.”

Suprised no timbo or ‘ye beat. But hey, it cant be worse than kingdom come (sure, good tracks here and there but overall wasnt his best).

Jigga does great when he comes back. Resonable doubt, blueprint and black album (after blueprint 2 – his worst).

This shit will comeback.

Cant wait for nas track.

And what the fucks with lil fucking wayne. Was the worst part about graduation. Shittest verse ever.

Hope he doesnt do the shit here. I really dont know why he is talked up to the extent he is (and yes, i have heard Dedication 2 and i was like “meeh”)

CHRIS FLAME ON THE BEAT! THE HOTTEST UP AND COMING PRODUCER FROM ATL, DONT SLEEP ON HIM!

Yo DIDDY did not actually produce shit. LV and Sean C did. They work for DIDDY. They did Celebrate for Ghostface. They also did “Can’t Knock The Hustle”

Step your collective game up kids.

for those young catz that dont get this shit right here!!!!keep listening to the trash SOULJA BOY ALBUM.SHIT………DUMM FUCKS….this is the realist form of real hiphop………..R.I.P. down south music……it over….thank god….no more retarted hip hop……..take notes fools

First of all I want to let everyone that I am a big Jay-Z fan. I have bought every single one of his albums. But to be honest the album is not that hot. In my opinion his last great album was the Blueprint. Since then all his other albums have been medicore. I think he rushed this album and it has some medicore producers on there. When is the last time Diddy or Neptunes has produced a real hit. I bought this album even though I wasn’t really feeling Blue Magic or The Roc Boys single. I thought maybe this album might be better. The best album to me in my opinion is that Kayne West. He had 3 hot singles and videos before his album even come out. For the week of 11/17 on the top 100 Billboard, Kayne has 4 single in the the top 100. Good Life #3, Can’t Tell me nothing #34, Flashing Lights #62, and Stronger #63. Jay-Z has only 2 with Roc Boys #20, and Blue Magic #70. Even his first week album sales sold more that Jay-Z. Kayne album come out before Jay-Z and his older single are still ahead of Jay-Z. Jay-Z is still the man, he has made many hit records and sold millions. I just think that he is out of touch with his fan base and should of spent a little more time on this album. But right now Jay-Z is not what’s hot, I think he has lost it. I think he cares more about collecting a check than making good music. Plus this album is like a wanna be Reasonable Doubt but there can only be one. I thought you are suppose to mature with you music not go backwards. I’m not hating on Jay-Z, I think he is one of the Greatest rappers of all-time but I do think he is out of touch right now.

listen people… 1st thing… its not about east coast or south… cause it’s some dope HIP HOP artist from all conrners of the world. 2nd, until you drop some shit people consider a classic and that some dude buys and plays it through his fucked up life and is saved from it (hip hop music, ART) then don’t feel like you got an opinion on what Jay Z does or what any of these others producers are doing. 3rd as far as Diddy producing most of the AG album, apparently Diddy knows what he’s doing; he’s still here right ladies… most of ya’ll don’t know what good music is anyway…

Does anyone know the name of the beat that plays when Frank walks out of jail at the end of the movie?
it is also the second song that plays while the credits are rolling..
