I think his "old man niche", or as i call it his mature rap is shown on this album almost to the same level as on AG. He definitely has thisgrown-and-sexy hip hop thing down, there aren't many rappers who make music that sounds like Jay-Z. As a 25 yr old hip hop fan who kinda grew up withJigga, I really appreciate hearing his music grow as he grows, KC the exception as that was a rushed Def Jam project.

I'm not feeling "Forever Young" at all. I keep thinking about Napoleon Dynamite with that weak +@@ sample. Maybe it'll grow on me like BeachChair

 

[DYNAMICS]

Taking it in now...

 

[eightysbaby]

Already home

Kid Cudi hook

This track is mad smooth...

 

[chozin87]

I'm here at So Ambitious and I'm very surprised I haven't skipped anything yet...Solid album so far

 

[awwsome]

Fire.

Im'a wait till September 11th to purchase the album because of the last two songs that leaked (above) and hearing NT talking about how great some othersongs that leak are. I want to PURCHASE this album... Jigga didnt let us down. Thank the LORD ALMIGHTY!!!

Nah, I feel you on the maturity thing...I'm 29, "old" by NT standards. I'm not talking about the content, I just prefer the instrumentationon AG. From the record to the stage, its almost a seamless transition.
