The first verse alone says otherwise.
3.Kingdom Come: JB had this beat on his Myspace like a year before KC. Not wack but should not be on an album 3/5
So? Either way the beat is still bonkers, and Jay went in.
4. Show Me What You Got: That beat is just....greatness. Again, Jay is rapping about too much money. Snoozefest lyrically. 3/5
5. Lost One: Weak sauce. And who the *%%$ picked this for a single? 1/5
SMWYG is supposed to be more of a club single, not a lyrical kind of song. And you complain about Jay rapping too much about money, then diss what he does in Lost One? Wow.
8. I Made It: Have never been able to make it all the way through this. 0/5
Again, he doesn't rap about money here, and you don't even bother to listen to what he's saying?
9. Anything: LOL. 0/5
Eh, we can agree here.
12. Dig A Hole: Terrible. 0/5
Jay went here too. Especially seeing how the subject of the song's career pretty much became irrelevant since the mid 00s - it was almost too easy. "It's nothin' but a hobby to him/Simple like serve and volley to him"
13. Minority Report: I have no interest in hearing Jay-Z talk about Hurricane Katrina. 0/5
Aye. No comment.
14. Beach Chair: Won't turn it off if it comes on but will never go out of my way to listen to it. 3/5
Jay has always been one to close an album strong, and he channels his The Black Album introspection here. This is one of the best album cuts.
