Default Kanye West, Jay Z - Watch the Throne

Their collaboration album. Biggest hyped up bollucks for a while. Nothing innovative what so f- ever about this album IMO.

I felt that way after I listened to Twisted Fantasy, actually.

It's an enjoyable and fun album, but it was always going to be badly received given how hyped up it was.

I agree, take the album on its own - it's a good representation of them both, musically. But yes, the hype ruined it IMO.

The hype definitely didn't ruin the album for me. While it wasn't amazing, it was pretty solid and as a whole it was a lot better than I thought it would be, especially after seeing the Otis video.

Yeah, really good beats. Bound to be the best commercial rap album of the year already.

Album does some original things production wise-i wouldnt say its completely devoid of innovation

I think it's great.
I've really enjoyed it the times I've listened to it, and while it's not my favorite album of the year, so far, I do enjoy it thoroughly.

Good album but can't get over the fact that no credit was given to FP for sampling his song "I Can't Stop"

Do NOT listen to this album then. Completely pointless if you didn't even like "Twisted Fantasy"
