JAY Z & Kanye West - Watch the Throne (2011)



Gave it one listen through. More stuff like My Beautiful Dark....blahblahblah. The album opens and closes with Frank Ocean features, I didn't expect that.

Revision: Not so much like MBDTF, it's less thematic and less sayad. The songs are mostly about Jay and Ye bein' baller and not past their peak. They rap over Flux Pavillion's 'I Can't Stop' on 'Who Gon Stop Me'. So far my favorite song is 'Niggas In Paris' and my favorite line is 'Doctor said I'm the illest because I'm suffering from realness'. Also here's their video for the song Otis directed by Spike Jonze:


Watch the Throne:
01 No Church in the Wild (ft. Frank Ocean)
02 Lift Off (ft. Beyoncé)
03 Niggas in Paris
04 Otis (ft. Otis Redding)
05 Gotta Have It
06 New Day
07 Prime Time
08 Who Gon Stop Me
09 Murder to Excellence
10 Welcome to the Jungle
11 Sweet Baby Jesus (ft. Frank Ocean)
12 Why I Love You (ft. Mr Hudson)

Bonus tracks:

13 Illest Motherfucker Alive
14 H*A*M
15 That's My Bitch
16 The Joy (ft. Curtis Mayfield)


Decided I'd start providing pay for links because I like extending that courtesy, not because these two particular artists need more money.

notice the conspicuous absence of metallica albums on here?

...the fuck?! i'm surprised he let bassnectar get away with the remix and in turn TJ and Paul.

maybe he knows that TJ and paul's bleak childhoods will eventually manifest themselves, providing all the revenge necessary.
