"eating ya'll food leaving dishes"
Tuesday, September 01, 2009
if you've been roaming the internet in the past day, you've probably managed to snag a "copy" of the blueprint 3. i've been sitting on my pilfered jay-z goods, but i decided to give it a listen last night. without getting into great detail, my first impressions are as follows.
some listening material to begin:
+ oh, the powers that be deleted my joints!
+ "what we talkin' about"
feature luke steele of empire of the sun
producer kanye west, no i.d.
notes production is quality. jay-z appears to be in top form and effortlessly moves through the track. i've never heard of luke steele and it won't be too soon if i ever hear him again. overall, a more than solid intro.
first look score 4/5
+ "thank you"
feature none
producer kanye west, no i.d.
notes once again, the production is quality. the kanye west and no i.d. partnership works. jay-z sounds right at home and delivers both quotable and well constructed verses. his flow is flawless. he lays rest to his detractors, of the competing mc's sort, with the third verse. "thank you" might be my favorite track on the blueprint 3.
first look score 5/5
+ "d.o.a. (death of auto-tune)"
feature none
producer no i.d.
notes i've enjoyed no i.d.'s production since "d.o.a." was released. in contrast, i haven't thought too much about jay-z's contribution. i think it's kind of corny and "salty old man" like of jay-z to pull this card. the first verse is "meh", but jay-z marginally improves the quality through to the end.
first look score 3.5/5
+ "run this town"
feature kanye west, rihanna
producer kanye west, no i.d.
notes the beginning of this track is epic as rihanna croons out the hook as gritty guitars get pulled in. kanye west and no i.d. deliver again. unfortunately, jay-z comes out flat and uninteresting. the second verse is a complete throwaway. the third verse by kanye completely steals the track. it's reminiscent of eminem's turn on "renegades". like nas would say, kanye murdered jay-z on his own shit.
first look score 4/5
+ "empire state of mind"
feature alicia keys
producer al shux
notes can't say that i've ever heard of al shux. he provides standard, but inspiring work. jay-z does an adequate job. he doesn't say much of note. it's soothing to hear alicia keys' voice. her tone and inflection on "empire state of mind" remind me of chris martin of coldplay. it's odd, but it works.
first look score 4/5
+ "real as it gets"
feature young jeezy
producer the inkredibles
notes oh, this is tight! young jeezy ad libs can make anything better. the production by the inkredibles gets me pumped up. this could be the next "roc boys" is marketed properly. jay-z and young jeezy both deliver on their verses.
first look score 5/5
+ "on to the next one"
feature swizz beatz
producer swizz beatz
notes if you've been in a club in the last two years, you'll immediately recognize the justice sample. subsequently, you can recognize any swizz beatz production within seconds of it coming on. not a boring track, but swizz beatz is pretty formulaic. jay-z flexes lyrically and the flow is vintage. subliminals at weezy? sign me up!
first look score 3.5/5
+ "off that"
feature drake
producer timbaland
notes lmao.
first look score 1/5
+ "a star is born"
feature j. cole
producer kanye west, no i.d.
notes finally, a misstep by kanye west and no i.d. "a star is born" is a negative! the drums are horrid! in a reverse moment, jay-z does a commendable job until the middle of the track. the flow is reminiscent of "my humps" era black eyed peas. j. cole performs clean up and does well. considering he's on roc nation, i think he's one to look out for.
first look score 3/5
+ "venus vs. mars"
feature none
producer timbaland
notes chorus is pathetic. production is sad. jay-z is near perfect. it's hard to like this track because of what's wrong with it, but jay-z murders it. individually, i think this is his strongest performance.
first look score 4.5/5
+ "already home"
feature kid cudi
producer kanye west
notes frankly, the strings are incredibly annoying, but the horns are perfect. with that said, the balance simply works. kid cudi could become the no auto-tune version of t-pain or better yet, the next akon. i can see him crafting a career on choruses and hooks alone. lyrically, jay-z is on a roll as he puts in another strong performance.
first look score 4/5
+ "haters"
feature kanye west
producer kanye west
notes the productions sounds like a leftover from the 808s sessions. that's not necessarily a bad thing as i think the production is quality. "haters" works best when jay-z and kanye west are going back forth. i have to say that "eating ya'll food leaving dishes" is a classic line. the singing at the end was unnecessary and odd.
first look score 4/5
+ "reminder"
feature random singer that sounds like rihanna
producer timbaland
notes finally, timbaland has production that's not horrible. i'm glad that hov put the stops on a solely timbaland produced album. the production is fairly strong and sounds nothing like timbaland, but maybe that's a good thing. side note, the chorus is awful, aww! jay-z steps on the toes of prospective haters and declares himself the best, after the beatles that is. jay-z is on the preemptive here. he doesn't want the internets hating on him
first look score 4/5
+ "so ambitious"
feature pharrell
producer the neptunes
notes if this is what the neptunes were submitting, i think jay-z you should have considered replacing the timbaland productions. vintage neptunes. i'm looking forward to what else they gave to the clipse. i haven't decided if this is a complaint or not, but "so ambitious" reminds me of a lot other tracks. jay-z gets a little introspective and handles his section while pharrell absolutely murders it on the bridge. the last verse is memorable. this is a combo that works.
first look score 5/5
+ "young forever"
feature mr. hudson
producer kanye west
notes another 808s leftover, but i can't say i like this one as much. the synths sound like a programmed loop. i don't see what the big deal with mr. hudson is. i don't think he adds much to this track. the idea of this track is kind of humurous considering jay-z is old as shit, but he is still trying to remain relevant. could that be what's he's going for? i wish this was an itunes bonus track because "so ambitious" would have been a perfect closer.
first look score 2/5

Hahaha i love how u rate all the good tracks poorly and all the bad tracks well. This album is a class a pop culture shit. sounds like every other shitty album out their, way to go with the crowd.... Pick up Drake so far gone or Cudis album or mixtape if u want some actual music.

i guess this review came off as more positive than intended. to clarify, i did not like blueprint 3 that much. i think i touched on that in my follow up review.
