    Props to the K.Dot and Cole tho. Bringing conscience rap to the mainstream and being successful at it. Without them pushing the needle in that direction, I don't even think Jay makes this album. Which is good by the way even with the lazy flows. 4/5.

    Wait... so you actually like the album!? Why tha venom then?

    Lol, I never had any venom. Been bumping it all weekend. ? is just in their feelings in here. I'm not finna jump off the roof cause it took Jay 47 years and 3 kids later to be on something, ? been on.

    He's done it years ago already. Songs like Where Have U Been, Soon You'll Understand, December 4th...he's got more than a few songs like this...just not an entire album...and neither does Cole or Kendrick because not all their ? is on some conscious super introspective ? either. Hell "? Problems" was originally made for GKMC and ain't ? conscious about that

    The:

    ? the same chicks....
    Walking round like y'all made Thriller



    Im not sure if its about Ye, could just be a shot at the younger generation... Or maybe its both...

    I think it's against Bhris and karruche and co.

    Would only make sense since he legit hates Bhris and he was compared to a young MJ years ago.

    And karruche been passed around alot.

    Could also mean drake, meek, or insert random rapper that takes leftovers

    You said all that to say its not about 1 specific person lol

    Jay the master of sublims... I know it might have been mentioned before but employing No ID to produce the entire album and him being Kanye's mentor as a producer coupled with his angry rant at Jay which was of course highlighted in the album ...



    Proper sonning...

    'BAM' uses the same sample as Ye's 'Famous', i clocked it straight away and thought to myself that's surely a jab of some sort, but the producer picks the sample, that's more of a diss on no i.d.s part if anything.

    I don't know, but it doesn't feel coincidental in any sense, jay saying almost i can do the same ? better than you.

    Of course it's not every track, but it's been the majority with Cole and Kendrick and with Jay, it has not been until now.

    444 flipped upside down kinda looks like a 666, food for thought?
