Is his new album any good? The soundtrack for "American Gangster" was impressive. Anybody hear his latest yet?

I did and while it wasn't on par with American Gangster, it certainly wasn't disappointing experience. out of 5 stars I'd rate it around 4/5. He also takes a different route musically than before but it all works out to be a wonderful album.

To everyone else How could debuting at #1 hardly be an accomplishment? Have you seen the state the music industry is in? Nothing but bootlegging and significant hit to record sales all over different genres. Debuting at #1 especially for the 11th time in a Row is nothing to snort at.

Another thing Jay-Z will be remembered much longer than Elvis was. Why? Simple fact he's not only taking care of himself Physical and financially meaning he will be around for a lot longer than Elvis but it's also because the genre of Music he's in is much much younger than Elvis' and with him making this kind of History will be on the forefront of everyone's minds for decades while Elvis' legacy slowly fades away.


So, you are saying Jay Z will be more remembered than Elvis? say that after 50 years. Also, I could name 50 artist that are better than Jay Z without any effort.

Muse being one of them ^^


Yeah, by far too.

And I agree with SciFiBoy

Never liked Jay-Z's music at all. But meh... I hate most mainstream rap.

@Seece Ment to say Tell me Why You Don't See Rap as Music. And for those saying Rap is nothing but talking shit over a tune I could easily say that Rock and Roll or Punk or Heavy Metal is nothing but Screaming obscenities over an electric gutair.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

Damn right Muse being one of the many artists better than Jay-Z!

Can't wait to see them in just over a month :D

And we could tell you that it isnt.

Punk, Rock and Metal have melody in their songs, complexity varies in each one. Lyrics are not the same, they depend of the type of song.

Also, rock/Punk/Metal would be SINGING(screaming depending on the genre) over one or 2 electric/acoustic guitar, a bass, a drum set, maybe a piano or violins, anyway you look at it these 3 genres have a lot more complexity that rap does, hell even the pop rock bands that everybody think  are crap like the jonas brothers and tokio hotel are better even if they suck.

:O They came here a year ago and I couldnt watch them, I hope they come again with their new album out.



Congrats for the 11th straight number one. The last one I bought and listened to was The Black Album. Never really bothered with anything after that.
