There were a few tracks that were fairly decent, but overall, this was a true disappointment.
I listened to all of it while working out today and didn't really like too much of it. But then, (after a ridiculous, unprofessional delay) I head MCHG. Also, there were all those galaxy promotions and videos that gave inside looks on the album, and it sounded very soulful and personal. It had been about 4 years since Jay Z's last solo album, so naturally I was very hyped for this. I enjoyed Jay's last album, Empire State of Mind, and his duo with Kanye West "Watch The Throne. It had Overall, a colossal disappointment.

And two for hip hop, because this album sonically almost brings hip hop full circle, lyrically seems to attempt to stay in touch with typical mainstream fans taste, which is the only negative about this album, while re-introducing an old-school style/theme and both expand ever so slightly to again introduce new ideas, and is a last contribution/gift to hip hop to point the genre in the right direction. He's rapped 17 years and put out 15 albums, 12 solo and 3 tandem albums which is just about the maximum that any artist should really do. One for Jay-Z, because I think he maxed out his ability to put out a significantly good album at the perfect time in his career. Magna Carta Holy Grail is important for multiple reasons. This album is a major improvement upon his previous album "Watch The Throne" that he made alongside Kanye. The lyrics aren't great by any means, but they have FEW great MOMENTS and are good enough to keep this album at that important status in hip hop history.
This is honestly the best produced album I've heard in a while, but the lyrics just couldn't take it to that next level. The production and sound takes you back a little bit and even shows some new possibilities. Even though I don't think it is a great album, I think it is an important one for Jay-Z's career and hip hop in general. Even though I don't think it is a great album, I think it is an important one for Jay-Z's This album should be getting more love than it is. This album should be getting more love than it is.
