Sorry, but I just don't get Jay Elec. Or the hype.

I have yet to hear a full, coherent track from the dude. He's an OK MC, a reasonable producer, but just because he's Badu's squeeze that doesn't mean I'm going to respect him. Not until he actually makes something worthwhile.

Video isn't working. In fairness, it isn't a bad track. But it's also made of meh. There is so, so much better music out there - why bother with this?

@Fah Que, why me in particular?

Drake should have dropped So Far Gone as an album. it's solid enough (40's beats are amazing) and his breakthrough/runaway single was on that shit.

Jay Elect is the truth. It took me a while to appreciate his rhyme styles. Not for the casual listener for sure.
Co-sign Msani's recommendations.

I particularly like these songs:
Uzi weighs a ton,
My World (Nas Salute)
Exhibit A  -
dimethyltryptamine

Use those as a starting point

so i've been listening to dude.

i love the beats and the concepts. especially the concepts (even though they can seem a bit gimmicky at times: Raekwon sounds like Dostoevsky? that's some bullshit). ait flow. but still, shit doesn't really get me there. am i not listening to the right shit?

suggest something. just not the Exhibits. i've been listening to those joints.
