“LISTENED: 5/21/2026 Really boastful, loud, with some very nice wordplay from the chemistry between Jay-Z and Kanye. Although I think the latter half of the album takes a really dragged out turn, repeating the same beat for 4-5 minutes, making the bars really mind-numbing to listen to, there are some quality tracks with the use of trumpets, drums, and unrestrained bravado from two of the biggest hip-hop artists ever. It’s okay.”

“Once again there are some great songs on here. Murder to excellence is my favorite song on this album. Loved No church in the wild Ni**as in Paris and Otis. But once again from an album standpoint it’s alright.”
