For those that care, Jay-Z's latest album leaked this week, and its incredible. Its scheduled release September 11th if you want to actually buy it, but you can easily download it today.

Not sure how many hip hop lover we have here, but I think there's something for everyone on the album.

This really isn't one of those albums you'll instantly like, I had to listen to it in its entirety a couple of times before I really liked it. Playing it in order is also important to the album, more so than others i'd say. Takes a while to grow on you.

notable songs (aside from the singles):

A star is born
Empire state of mind
off that
so ambitious
young forever

Heard the whole album.



Overall, it's SUCCESS not FAIL like many suggest. SF has horrible taste in rap so it goes without saying.

First I'll like the say all the singles are hot.

-DOA
-Run this town

Are pretty good.

-What we talking about
-Thank you

Are potentially classic.

-Reminder (even with the corny hook)
-Hate
-Already home
-venus Vs mars
-Off that
-Next one

Are good.

- Young forever
-star is born
- Real as it gets
- Empire state

Are meh to mediocre. The type of thing you would expect from another rapper.

Empire is current fav. but i think that's just because its the most easy to listen to for me. It's pretty "pop-ish" imo. Alicia Keys has killer voice.

Rest is growing on me.
