Jay and Kanye made rapping on some of those difficult beats look easy, this is what happens when you dont have the skill they got. Game couldnt even find the beat

RESPECT magazine is run by Elliott Wilson, a.k.a the biggest jockriding Jay-Z stan in the world... just sayin.

"A spider has 8 legs, and when they say "down came the rain" it's referring to the "Reign" of ancient Egyptians over the 8 Mayan tribes. "Up came the sun and dried up all the rain" is a reference to Jesus' resurrection (up came the Son) and dried up all the rain is referring to when Jesus plauged the the community with a drought, and also Jesus dried the "reign" because he let them know that he had the true power.
Dudes on here probably put more thought/ research into these lyrics than the artists actually do. No hate tho, if you like that then do you.

Watch the Throne is partially deep and partially not.
Half of it is about being rich and living lavishly; the other half is about the problems that they still have even with all their money.
Overall it's not terribly deep, but not completely shallow either. Simple as that.

You should call out specific interpretations that you think are reaches instead of rambling. Most of the breakdowns arent even that deep just little wordplay tosses for people to catch
But there is enough "ballin and bottle poppin" for the masses.
I think the problem is most people dont like knowing something went over there head. Especially since most people already dismissed it as flossin or bougee rap
You would have to have some knowledge in Philosophy to catch the Socrates/Plato lines
You would have to have be familiar with Genesis to catch the obvious Noah references.
But like I said you dismiss the obvious wordplay from a guy who wrote a best selling book about how he puts hidden meanings in his lyrics. Cool
