Kanye West & Jay-Z - Watch The Throne

[ameraal]

i just can't get into kanye and i don't even care about him being a cunt of the highest order
in my books jay has at least half a dozen classics (can i get a, izzo, empire, on to the next one, 99 problems, hard knock life, etc) and the only kanye songs i care about are gold digger and monster

See I'm the opposite as (ESOM aside) none of Jay-Z's stuff does much for me whereas Kayne does have quite a few great tracks (Through the Wire, Diamonds, Stronger, All of the lights and almost everything from 808s)

am you know I love you, but you obviously haven't given any of his albums a real chance, because they are basically all really good; especially the last two. He's constantly evolving and finding his identity as an artist.

Jay-Z just doesn't have that level of depth: It's all swagger (love him as well though).

I prefer Kanye over Jay Z. I think that for the most part he works better alone. As I like MBTDF and 808s better than WTT, Which feels very uneven.

[POP!]

While time and time again I can sit down and enjoy/appreciate a Kanye album (especially MBTDF), I don't feel I ever get the URGE to do that with Jay-Z. Although I think I listened to and rather liked The Black Album years ago.

funny you say that because i actually think kanye is painfully shallow
but i'm up for a challenge - hit me with 3 kanye songs, i'll give them a bash over a week and see if i change my mind

does anyone still think this album is amazing?

not warming to it at all, apart from otis and the frank ocean track (despite the pretty rubbish lyrics)

[POP!]

Video for "No Church in the Wild" is out

Did anyone go to the WTT tour? It was pretty amazing. I much prefer Jay to Ye so it wasn't my favourite Jay-Z gig of all time (IOW Festival 2010 would be that). And I still can't really get on board with the WTT album. I think it's pretty lazy for both artists.
