Ebjan posted:I know this but I think it was one of the weakness things on the album. I wish I had the ability to cut it from my CD. When I buy a music CD I just want music. I don't need or want some talking, skits, jokes, follow up or background ramblings. Pure music. I think the skit is part of the song really if on an artistic level he considered it a skit i don't think he would have made us sit thru it like that I mean if you gonna break up the interlude and who will survive you might as well have broken that skit out if it was just some throwaway thing

I love how even though Jay Z might be half the rapping on WTT, it's still really a Kanye album. Or at least it still gets discussed in the Kanye thread. I think "Otis" is a better song and has much higher aspirations than "HAM." It's scope is certainly bigger. "HAM" is just more immediately entertaining, which is why it's a Lex Luger piece more so than a Kanye track. If there are more "Otis" tracks than "HAM" tracks then WTT will have much higher replay value. atrus50 fucked around with this message at 17:37 on Jul 21, 2011 |

Alright, here's a track by track breakdown from more reputable sourcesokayplayer posted:Y’all know we have been watching The Throne fairly closely and last night–a few hours ago, really–we were lucky enough to attend an exclusive listening session for the forthcoming Kanye & Jay-Z magnum opus (drops today or one week from today, depending who you believe) at the Hayden Planetarium inside New York’s American Museum of Natural History. “Listening Session” maybe doesn’t cover it, though, since the immersive experience came with an IMAX light show and also had a surreal performance art dimension to it. ddot posted:No Church In The Wild – sets the tone in a way so compelling that you know this album is going to deliver some level of greatness. The beat itself is somewhat in the same vein of Novacane, on steroids. 88-Keys definitely earned top 4 placements with this one. Lyrically it was promising as well with Yeezy kickin a hilarious bar along the lines of “Coc on black skin got her striped like a zebra, now that’s that jungle fever” but the chorus was like “what’s a King to a God, what’s a God to a non believer”. The guardian.co.uk posted:Is it possible for a listening party to be too opulent? Not for hip-hop's two biggest stars, Jay-Z and Kanye West, who held a party for about 400 at the American Museum of Natural History in New York on Monday to celebrate their long-promised collaboration, Watch the Throne. village voice posted:The Throne (Watch The Throne listening session) Seems like another record about being american. I'm hyped. There are also low quality recordings floating around. I ain't gonna listen to them, but to each their own. atrus50 fucked around with this message at 17:55 on Aug 2, 2011 |

This is possibly the weirdest hip-hop album I've ever heard. This is not really a one listen album, but it's so exhausting that I'm not too keen to go through it again. I like that the bonus tracks were basically there to help get your bearings straight after that onslaught. Here's a question though: what the hell is Otis doing on the album?
