Anybody Heard "Watch The Throne" from Jay-Z & Kanye? Just curious about how it actually turned out.... Because I know that everything that sounds good on paper doesn't always sounds good on record. | |

Personally I thought it was shockingly boring, it didn't capture the avant garde shock of Kanye's last effort or the catchy but cool vibe of Jay's last. This record just has no appeal to it in my opinion. 2012: The Queen Returns | |

- Depending on when u ordered you download links should have been in ua email a little after midnight this morning. My links where in my email at 12:06am Nick Ashford was someone I greatly admired, had the honor of knowing, and was the real-life inspiration for Cowboy Curtis' hair. RIP Nick. - Pee Wee Herman | |

I listened to it all the way...no skips.More listens are required but after one listen I give it 3 out of 5 stars. Kanye is in rare form though outshining Jay Z!
Love God and I shall 4ever Love u | |

It's decent. I knew it wouldn't live up to the hype, & it didn't. الحيوان النادلة ((((|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|̲̅̅=̲̅̅|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|)))) ...AND THAT'S THE WAY THE "TITTY" MILKS IT!

Awful album. I actually began to yawn half way through it.
kanye's last album was a masterpiece.........this sounds like a throwaway mix of songs he put together with Jay Z just for the sake of having an album together.

I like it. It's not a masterpiece but it's a good album. The only songs I don't like are "Lift Off" and "H.A.M.". | |

Heard the snippets but nothing really stood out to me except for "That's My Bitch". I'm not buying the album. I'd rather wait for Kanye's next album. Seems like he saves the best for himself. I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

Whoops, I did not see this thread before I posted mine.
Anyway, I really like the album so far especially "Who Gon Stop Me", "The Joy", "Gotta Have It" and "....In Paris". "And When The Groove Is Dead And Gone, You Know That Love Survives, So We Can Rock Forever" RIP MJ
"Baby, that was much too fast"...Goodnight dear sweet Prince. I'll love you always | |

Packaging for the album has leaked:
I only got one thing to say: this thing has ILLUMINATI written all over it!
As for the album.... It does nothing in both Ye or Jay's discography. The songs and concept is just boring. Ye definitely does his best when he's alone and Jay is way past his prime, so I won't be picking this up on the 12th. Check me out and add me on:

Tried listening to it today and it's quite bad actually. A few ok tracks and alot of Kanye whining and complaining as only he knows how to do. 3 outta 10 The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.
Remember there is only one destination and that place is U All of it. Everything. Is U. | |

I’ll try to pick it up this Friday (add to my collection) I heard it online already though people stupid thinking this was going to be as good as their solo efforts. I hope this is the first and last time they do an album together to be honest.

i made a thread about it called Watch The Crapper
The album was so dull, i wasn't expecting much but damn from Kanye to go from making his best album then 9 months later release HIS WORST. That has to be a new record!!!
Half teh songs where ego boasting anf that is getting so old form these 2, i suspect the album will do well first 2 week's then go down QUICKLY
Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

To be fair this was a joint effort Kanye doesn’t need Jay at this point.

Defintley! it's sad Jay had some good track's on MBDTF as well. But he has not made a great solo album since the black album.... Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

I think American Gangster was decent but yes I feel as well his better days are behind him . Reasonable Doubt, The Blueprint and The Black Album are my top 3 from him. Sad that they doing a tour and most of the people I saw rather see kanye by himself lmao.

As much as I like and have supported these MCs, the hood-to-riches storyline is getting tired. But I will reserve judgment on the album until I hear it. In the meantime, here's an interesting piece.
