How many of you guys that don't like this album realize that it's not meant to be understood today? Now I'm not one to make excuses for music.
It's part of the BP series, he's allegedly setting up a new blueprint for hip hop albums? I'm all for a new lane in hip hop and a diff direction but I don't want everyone jocking him and doing this !%%# cuz all of this is not good music, no theme or direction. Just a lot of new sounds being used for him.
I thought I disagreed when somebody said right now he's only doing this for the love and nothing else but I'd seriously prefer that to him thinking he can make this a new movement in hip hop. I said it earlier but Jay isn't gonna be the one to usher in the new era of hip hop. If this is the music he wants to make now tho, fine let him do him. No reason to front on it and act like it's better than it is.
That's so false...
I'll say this one more time. I'm not even trying to convince anybody of anything. Let me use Jthgreat as an example real quick. That man has the same opinion of the 1st BP as I do. He just does. I didn't convince him or anything. Because he sees that album the way I do, he relates to why I see BP3 the way I do. I'm willing to bet that more than a few people agree with me. I'll use Reasonable Doubt as precedence here. A lot of Jay-Z's brilliance is under appreciated at first. I myself did not even almost like RD until after The Blueprint.
Were your ears not cleaned out? or were you heavily drugged? I can understand if you never heard RD and BP made you go back and listen to it but Idon't follow not liking RD.
I've experienced not feeling an album but giving it more spins and letting it grow on me but there's always the opposite where some songs are just notworth playing again.
As far as the theme on this album outside of a handful of tracks(Already Home, Reminder, Thank You, On To The Next One, and D.O.A.) what is the theme of thisalbum? It makes it worse that all of the songs not going anywhere aren't that good. I should've mentioned the tracks that do but for a 15 track album,no.
