i really think u need to have a good look on some of jayz's interviews after that song came out and what he meant by it coz there was autotune used in bp3 as well. the same way tpain completely misunderstood it a lot of the public did too.

Gave this the 3rd full listen with Beats Studio at high volume, so there's no excuse now (also likely the last one). This is a below average record. I was listening to Late Registration yesterday, and I wish Kanye would go back to whoever ghostwrote his lyrics for that album because they were actually good. As it was the outstanding production.

The first 4 songs of WTT, hyperbole aside, are terrible. Lift Off in particular is offensive to the ears. Gotta Have It is the first good song because the sampling is really great. New day is good too because Kanye and Jay-Z shut the hell up for most of the song and just let people enjoy the good beat. Who Gonna Stop Me is dope for what it is (electronic/dubstep-ish) beat and Kanye sounds pretty badass. Murder to Excellence has an incredible beat, and I like the melodic voice Kanye uses. The change in beat is also cool.

That's about it. The rest is overproduced garbage with Kanye spitting nonsensical shit, horrible shit, or bragging shit. Nothing clever. Jay-Z should hang the mic and go enjoy his fortune. Damn if this guy isn't boring as fuck.

For the record, I like every single song in MBDTF.

Just my two cents.

One day you could be Kanye's white bitch, he certainly likes to rap about them.

Coincidently, my fav track is 'that's my bitch'!

Were Jay and Ye lip-syncing to the song? If so, why not sync it up with the song?

Breaking news: I've just downgraded this from a 7 to a 6. Replay value starting to wear out already.

Fo real, Ferarri Boyz has some bangers. WTT is a 5.2/10 album.
Too overproduced.
Who want to hear a album full of beats that are sampled.
Fuck that shit.

And Jay-Z fell like DAMN
I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it.
Spent a million a track and went over my budget.
Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt?
I can't rap anymore, I just murdered the alphabet.

Just got back from my holidays so I haven't had a chance to listen to this yet, but it seems to be getting very mixed reviews, on this site and in general, which I'm surprised about....maybe the album fell victim to it's hype? Time for me to find out :sweating:
Same sword they knight you they gon' good night you with
Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified

"The Maybach that becomes the centerpiece of the Baphometian tribute becomes a sacrifice in the name of greed and darkness. The video depicts Lucifer and Kanye destroying the vehicle, turning the symbol of wealth into the dark personification of greed -- a hellish, grotesque, fire-breathing monstrosity that sprouts wings similar to Baphomet's. The vehicle then serves as a reflection of Jay-Z and Kanye's own greedy dark desires which have corrupted their souls."
