Holmes caught a good little loop right there!
I'm sure this thread'll be full of "meh"'s and "Jay's too old" comments, but I'm really looking forward to this album. Mike Dean and Frank Ocean? I'm excited!

Kinda stripped down, this beat leaves a lot to be desired, where are the drums? They are coming with some nice energy on the verses, dig the back and forth. Don't really see this particular cut having a lot of replay value but still look forward to hearing the rest of the LP.
I thought that beat fuskin sucked.
Like a really lazy jdilla bite.
Goin H.A.M. was a lot better.

That was garbage. That wasn't even a beat. These are the top dudes in the game?

Hov, all things considered, I'm pretty sure you aren't going to kill anyone. What do you say we drop the act, huh?

This is horrible--it just never kicks in. Rapping over vocals is annoying as hell.[/quote

Based on my fb feed, I'm the only person I know who's not loving this. Knew I'd find some other hatteurs here! Really gotta shake my head at everyone talmbout "finally, someone's bringing hip hop back!". GTFOHWTBS.
Lazy-ass beat, and as far as rappin over vocal samples, it's worked a couple times over the years, but this is not one of them.

"Kanye took a familiar sample in Otis Redding???s ???Try A Little Tenderness??? and gave it the most skillful chopping and reconstruction we???ve seen since Just Blaze put his hands on ???Super Freak??? for Hov???s Kingdom Come"
That's the journalism equivalent of this song's beat.
