http://usershare.net/dx8p9yvg5cbn im diggin it...

Jay goes in and Drizzy chorus is cool.

beat is cool too...

i dont see why everyone is clowning this..

but to each their own...

 

[gone in 60 seconds]

Not bad to me, my only gripe is his flow is simular to something 50 would do

But it didn't leak

 

[hueyp in louiev]

I'm not disappointed....

Because I expected this to be wack.

Timbo's new vibe and Jay's new vibe just don't mesh.

Jay need to holla at Pete Rock and 'em going forward. Pull out the horns & strings and fall back off this techno s_.

In the larger scope of things, this could be the "Jigga that _" of BP3. Skip sometimes, let it rock other times.

Its a cool party joint, just not my twist.

Maybe it'll grow on me....but the next leak needs to be a vintage heatrock.

 

[do be doo]

here is the thread for TC3...

Maybe I'm wildin, but something seems weird about Jay-Z's damn near 40 year old self rapping over this beat. Like i can't see old heads orsomebody within his age range bumpin this, ever.

Not saying the song is bad, but it just seems like maybe he's trying to hard.

'can't bring back the future'

I'm glad I wasn't on NT back then...
So is everybody else.

DEAD.

I didn't want timbo anywhere near this album. Off That is an example why.

I will say, I haven't heard Jay this energized on a track in a while.

I was feeling good about this album after doa, but run this town and off that has killed my excitement for BP3.

 

[olvera23]

flow is on point and so are the lyrics, but i still DON'T like the song. Could have been much better but i still have high expectations for BP3

::


Didn't wanna make a whole new post to say this so I figure it's somewhat relevant here

but I usually don't pay any mind to posts/comments about how everybody wants Jay and Nas to only work with Primo and Pete Rock,
always thought "Hey I'd love it too but we don't control their choices"

then I heard the Red Cafe/Pete Rock joint "Heart and Soul of NY" or whatever it's called the other day
and was like
"Damm...Jay and/or Nas needed to be on that"

Not a fan.

*waits for ABH to break it down so I can appreciate*

[true 3 blue]

*sigh*

Not feeling Off That. I'll give it more listens throughout the week but definitely didn't grab me.

 

[deuce king]

I like it, but beat could have been better but overall this is a solid track.

 

[seymore cake]

^ you would

 

[blackbenz]

just heard off that and it does nothing for me, for such an anticipated album its really a weak track

It really isn't...

Would you prefer me to say that the track is wack G?? Again, the track isn't great, but it's far from wack, it's a solid track.

 

[airjordan jb23]

Not into this track, but im impressed with the other tracks so far. This 1 doesn't do it for me though.

 

[illfrozn]

So, I was thinking, Jay said that this album would be influenced by the music his parents/he grew up listening to and instrumentation. *@$ were his parentslistening to? They had to be literally from the future then. Marvin Gaye, The Temptations, Jackson 5, Smokey Robinson weren't singing over this ...
