Some cats in the music forum dont know how to fully appreciate music because they don't know how to listen and digest music. Cats on here listen to musicsorta like the same way a music critic would and this is not exclusive to Jay-z albums im talking all artists period, example... some cats when they listen toan album the first time they rush through it so they can be the first to summarize the album.. you'll see a cat rate an album by just the production andlyrics... not acknowledging the theme of the album, not acknowledging the synchronization, the flow of the album and etc there so many key things lost when youjust breeze through an album the first time. Also as with how a music critic views an album the first thing cats do is highlight the negative about the album so the reviews of an album seem sightly skewed because the bad tracks are highlighted more thanthe good tracks. Lastly the thing is see most common with alot of people is how they judge albums there's no longer no in between its either an album isclassic or trash, like an album just cant be "solid" or just can't be "okay". With some albums yes its possible to rate it just off 1or 2 listens based on the album being that good or that bad but still you gotta give time for the music to digest. You know how long it took for some albums tobe appreciated by fans... Reasonable Doubt for exmaple, nobody was even paying attention to that album when it first dropped now thats most fans fav Jay albumand considered a classic.
