Newest Review: ... track is quite well done. The next song Encore produced by Kanye West is a typical Kanye West beat soulful and energetic ... more

... again Jay-Z's flow is the main highlight of the song. The following two tracks kick off with terrible Change Clothes and would be a terrible addition to any album the next song called Dirt Off Your Shoulder is much better than Change Clothes however it still has a monotonous electronic synth beat and Jay-Z transforms into a typical commercial rapper its a shame that even on his last year resorted to such blatant commercialism, perhaps I am going over the top in my criticisms and I believe it will succeed in the clubs I am...more

Onto the album, it starts out oddly enough with a track ... Read the complete review
