    yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ! N***** in PARis is my fav song in this 3/10 album ! yes ! XD !

  2. trucie August 23, 2011

    Jayz is weak on most of the tracks. I just don’t understand Kanye’s reasoning for doing it other than trying to keep Jayz relevant. Just what else can Jayz bring to rap. Blueprint 3 was really good but only cuz he had good writers. His appeal these days have everything to do with Beyonce. And on this album his appeal has everything to do with Kanye. Idk just my opionion.

  11. Mariah2012..Come Back August 23, 2011

    Neither one of them could get a platinum certification solo, so they teamed up to get one together! I swear! A bad b****/n**** roll solo!

  12. The Throne BK August 23, 2011

    Why I Love You is my favorite track on the album. To me its all good, but itthink N***** in Paris will do good, but “thats my b****” , seems lke a good single. and Jay Z is not weak on most of the tracks. They both did hella good on the whole album.

  13. The Throne BK August 23, 2011

    @mariah2012 comback

  14. jeremydante August 23, 2011

    INSANELY EXCITED that there is a slight possibility for Ni**as in Paris.

  17. smokey August 23, 2011

    This CD is wack and people who bought it was buying it on their names NOT the MUSIC. Jay is finished his rap is slow like he is tired. Otis is a joke it moved to up the chart fast and fell back down fast just as fast on itunes

  18. BREEZYTHEBEST( AKA CHRIS IS KING) August 23, 2011

    N***** in Paris, one of the best off this album.

  19. kimberly August 23, 2011

    @ TRUCIE FOOLISH . JAY Z IS THE HIP HOP LEGEND . HE ALLOWED SO MANY HIP HOP DOUBTERS TO LISTEN AND GIVE IT A CHANCE ESPECIALLY IN THE WHITE COMMUNITY. STFU
    BTW I JUDGE YOUR IGNORANCE BY STATING THAT JAY Z HAD WRITERS. DARLING JAY Z DON’T WRITE MUSIC. HE FORMULATES IT IN HIS MEMORY. HIS MEMORY IS HIS PAD.
    IN CASE YOU WANT TO THROW SHADE TAKE SOME TIME TO FOLLOW THE HISTORY OF JAY Z AND COMMENT IDOT

  20. kimberly August 23, 2011

    @ mariah… Jay z has 11 solo albums and counting, what are you talking about ? You must be feeling like a jack in a box right now. Do your research darling you may just find out more shocking information about the legends

  21. YEABEY WON’T DANCE 4 U August 23, 2011

    Everyone loves N***** in Paris, even my aunt was bumping to that…

  22. YOOSONDALOOSE August 23, 2011

    Hmmmm… good choices.

  23. VA STAND UP!!! August 23, 2011

    That sounds about right. ‘N***** In Paris’ & ‘Why I Love You’ both seem to be fan favorites from the album, especially ‘N***** In Paris’. All I see on twitter is ‘that s*** cray’, that’s like everyone’s favorite new catch phrase! I think ‘Why I Love You’ will also do great on pop/Top40 radio. The chorus is catchy as f***.

    I think people just want ‘Lift Off’ to be a single just cause it features Beyonce like that’s supposed to gurantee it to be a hit. It got a lot of hype because Bey is on the song but there are obviously better singles choices on the album. Honestly Bey’s chorus is the best part of the song cause Jay & Kanye’s verses were kinda weak. Jay & Kanye are smart to go with other singles. I think they really have been listening to the feedback on the blogs & such and going with what people really want to hear.

    I wouldn’t mind seeing ‘Murder to Excellence’ and/or ‘Made in America’ as singles too. Those are two of my faves off the album. I’m actually surprised at how much I actually love this album. I first I thought it was just hype but it really is a good album.

    @Mariah2012..Come Back you are really ignorant Jay and Kanye already have platinum albums. They don’t need to team up to sales albums.

    I love both these songs. I was hoping Lift Off would be a single, but hopefully after these two it will be released. I’m not complaining though, cause I love these songs.

  36. Sallyone August 26, 2011

    the majority of the album is garbage and I believe Pusha T writes a lot of Kayne’s lyrics!!!!
