I know Kanye had nothing to do with it, but Beyonce and Jay Z’s collabo album is fucking awful.
Of course it is. They both suck. All Jay has done for the last decade is ride Kanye’s coattails while simultaneously being a huge prick to Kanye. Fuck that guy.

I agree that Kanye's output for the last decade has far surpassed Jay's, but Jay hasn't just ridden Kanye's coattails. I think that because he's not a producer himself, he has taken the more conventional rapper approach of "everybody send me their ten best beats, then I'll rap over my favorites." It's lead to a lot of divergent sounds and styles. Plus he's getting old, got caught cheating on his wife, is losing on the Tidal thing, etc...
Regardless of how I feel about Kanye's output, there's no denying the dude has a vision. I don't think Jay Z's had any sort of vision for like 15 years now.

Yep. Which is why he just steals Kanye’s. Look at the album art for 4:44. It’s lame Kanye imitation. Or the entire aesthetic of the “APESHIT” video. He even wears a different color version of Kanye’s Runaway outfit at one point.

Shit, I can't argue any of this 'cause I don't know about it. RIP Jay Z I guess.
Jay never had anything to say. I wouldn't be caught dead listening to Big Pimpin within earshot of another human. Nas said all that needed to be said on Ether.
