I have 'obtained' a leaked copy of "Jay Z Kingdom Come" and I think it is a decent commercial album. It will no doubt go platinum but will never compare to his earlier albums. I think this is true of every artist.

Same goes for Nas...i loved his Illmatic album, it was written album...after that he lost his roots and became commercial w/ his 'I am' album and that ghey a$$ song w/ P Diddy 'Hate me now'...
anybody got that old Firm album?? thats some classic ****..you got AZ, Nas, Foxy and even some Nore all on one album
dont even get me started w/ wu-tang...i loved the first raekwon, ghostface, method, ODB, RZA, GZA albums. The second/third (whatever album they are at now) are all WACK IMHO!!!

IT'S GONNA B FIRE
I've heard clips of a few tracks. Sounds good to me! They will get spins on the radio, sound good in your car and be heard in the clubs. No other rapper will have more hype & go platinum consistently.
Rap artistis that have made significant $$$$ eventually run out of things to say. When you are twentysomething and struggling you relate to the majority of the population. When you are 36 years old,make millions upper level exec with a major label and banging a talented hot chick making millions. Its kind of hard to talk about "gritty" topics from your struggle.
My 37 year old azz will be picking up the CD next week!!
Unless someone has the hook up ...

I think it is pretty good. I listened to the album while sitting at work. Track #14 "Beach Chair" is hot has a nice message to it. I am a big music fan so I listen for who's lyrics help the beats and who's beats help the lyrics but I must say Jay's got his grown man on on this album.
