Watch the Throne by Jay-Z Kanye West Review

 

First of all I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not a big fan of either of these artists even though I respect what both have done more so, what Jay-Z has done over the years. I’ve often said that Kanye’s albums have declined in quality since his debut of the College Dropout and hit rock bottom with the 808s & Heartbreaks but the My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy album was better but still wasn’t a good album. Now with Jay-Z I loved his Reasonable Doubt debut album along with a couple other albums but I loved the Blueprint and Black albums. Ok with that said let’s get to the review. Kinda like the Source magazine I’ll go up to a 5 star rating where they do mics.

1 star- The album was ehh, don’t waste your time.

2 stars- The album has a couple of good songs but still not worth being bought.

3 stars- The album was ok and maybe if you have a few extra dollars you should check it out.

4 stars- The album is really good and worth checking out and have a little playback value.

5 stars- Absolutely flawless album and can’t stop listening to it and maybe you should buy 2 copies, have one to play and one to put up to keep.

15. Primetime- Like the track but I think Jay really killed this track. Like

The Verdict: I really liked the album and I consider it the Album of the Year so far and it’s a album that if you love hip-hop or just music in general this is a must buy. Check out the Watch the Throne album above.
