Jay Electronica – Glass Everywhere (Act I Encore)

Ohh.. I know some of y’all hearts dropped when you read Jay Elect! Act II isn’t quite here though… but if this (umm, abstract?) site has anything to say, we’re getting close. As ThijsMe pointed out the track below contains the same verse that closed out Act I with a different beat and a different movie sample. So take it as an unreleased version you can add to the collection. UPDATE: Apparently this version has been out for a little bit as well. I must of missed it along the way, so I guess this post is only for those that are like me haha.

  3. Jay Tesla!!!

  4. This is the last part from act 1. It’s the same verse but it has a diffirent beat and it samples another movie.

  5. i was about to turn on my computer haha!

  6. What Diamondz said.

  7. anyone got some ill artwork for act I?

  8. damn.

  9. this shit is old as fuck

  10. dont see the hype around this guy honestly

  11. the beginning beat off of de la’s verbal clap.

  12. WHERE THE FUCK IS ACT II
    WHERE THE FUCK IS ACT II
    WHERE THE FUCK IS ACT II
    WHERE THE FUCK IS ACT II

    i know that shit is sitting on just blaze desktop. realease that shit already.

  13. how the hell did shake not know this verse lmfao
    do you listen to music or just skim through an post

  14. “how the hell did shake not know this verse lmfao”

    the verse sounded familiar. just couldnt put my finger on it, that’s all.

  15. lol Jay-e don ‘t deserve hate..

    but damn Act II need to drop..

  16. damn dude i jumped up and wigged out when i seen jay on the top of the page then read and lost all excitment.

  17. haha i did the same shit and my parents were staring.

    i need act 2 right now.

  18. I know this isn’t the place for it but any word on when blu will drop?

  19. you got me…ahhh well.

  20. Shake, i appreciate the milking of the suspense…

    got me glued on my laptop…

    don’t even plan on sleeping… (aight, maybe not that far– but close)

  21. smh this shits getting obnoxious, release Act II already!

  22. the funny thing is… all the people that are bitching and complaining will be the same people that download the day its released (whenever that is) and praises it. aka… all the comments, rants, etc about it not coming out when you expected it are worthless. its not gonna make jay elect drop it any sooner. all its doing is stressing you out and making you look like an asshat for screaming about free music not being here when you were told.

  23. ^^^this

  24. i remember when you had to stay awake just to here the radio past curfew when the new songs were dropping.

    had me up all night… waiting for the come up show back in philly

  25. This track has been out for quite a long time now Shake, heard it on youtube many months ago but still, thanks for putting it out for those who missed it, amazing verse with a dope beat, pure fire.

  26. This beat is De La Soul’s “Verbal Clap” from their album The Grind Date.
    It is produced by J Dilla if anyone didn’t know.

  27. “This track has been out for quite a long time now Shake, heard it on youtube many months ago but still, thanks for putting it out for those who missed it, amazing verse with a dope beat, pure fire.”

    ahh… guess i missed this version.

  28. Two things i want the Blu in HQ and Act 2.

  29. [...] We still do not know the whereabouts of Jay’s mixtape that was suppose to be available on New Years, and more unsure where exactly this track is from. It’s said that this is a track below which contains the same verse that closed out Act I with a different beat and a different movie sample according to Shake. [...]

  30. “all the people that are bitching and complaining will be the same people that download the day its released (whenever that is) and praises it.”

    I think this is obvious. The people are hungry for something…especially after you drop dates, those that complain are fans that feel disappointed. Sure Just Blaze and Jay Elect can do whatever the hell they want, but why drop dates if it’s not finished or really close to finished? Nobody is questioning the quality of Act II… just how it’s being handled pre-release.

  31. [...] one Encore), J Dilla, Jay Electronica Posted 13 minutes ago I heard this track over at 2dopeboyz and it caught my ear for two reasons. First off it’s new Jay Elec. Despite my criticism of [...]

  32. original is better

  33. I hear what your sayin shake and i agree to a certain extent. But when it comes down to it, you tell the people when your music is coming out, you have to expect the people to hold you to that date. Dude’s word is his bond and he’s been breaking it. Still, even if it does seem that i’m complaining I will be downloading Act 2 the second that I see it, and probably will be praising it shortly after listening.

  34. “Sure Just Blaze and Jay Elect can do whatever the hell they want, but why drop dates if it’s not finished or really close to finished? Nobody is questioning the quality of Act II… just how it’s being handled pre-release.”

    thats the thing. no dates were ever SOLID. they first said they WANTED to drop it on christmas and if they couldnt make that day they were HOPING for new years. how can one be disappointed in the artists they want music from for taking their time and making sure it’s the best quality?

  35. well i haven’t heard this and it’s fuckin CRACK

    some people need to get their damn panties out of a bunch goddamn c

  36. ^release it, then update it with better quality, then we’ll have the “original version” and add it to the collection.. its a win win, so RELEASE ACT 2!!!

  37. smh

  38. jay has been saying since december 07 that Act II was going to drop..stop bringing up that bs that he wants to take his time with it..there are fucking screenshots of it floating around the net already

    sources are telling me it will never drop

  39. ^^there is always more to what you see dude. for the record, he scratched what he had back then and re-did the entire thing. and the screenshot you are talking about is just of one track (in which ive played to death already haha) not the entire project. please learn the facts before you say stuff. it always helps.

  40. ive known about act 2 for a year, but since he said nas was going to be on it… well, it would have been better if that didnt come out cos he got my hopes up, along with other 10,000s of people.

  41. for the time its taken jay to release act II, it better be one of the greatest things to bless my ears

  42. http://www.reverbnation.com/blastmusicconcepts remember I said it first @Maestro @remiatl & j electronica will do some big collabos in ’10. trust me people. if you read my comments, even though I may add my link to m y music in it, I never lie. all of my predictions and some of my point shaving has already taken place. I B KNOWIN! lol

  43. Damn, did anybody look at that site? Shit is fuckin’ weeiirrrddd haha. Do your thing Jay, I’ll definitely be listening whenever this drops. My two favorite emcees with new projects (Blu + Jay Elec) = greeeat week for me and for hip-hop.

  44. @ mandela
    why’re you coming on shake’s site tryna diss him?
    if you wanna start you’re own go ahead, but i don’t see why you’re coming on here checking for free music shake puts up and then criticizing the way he does it

    just relax guys, the music’s gonna come when it comes, appreciate the fact that musicians are still willing to let the people hear their stuff for free in a hurting industry

  45. Oh shut up about Act II!

  46. The reason we’re bitching about free music is because we were told multiple times that the song was gonna come out, then when it didn’t come out we were never offered any type of explanation. And so what if its free anyway? Most hip-hop artists release free music nowadays its not like the free music is a rarity that we should cherish. Plenty of artists give release dates and deliver on the date and if they don’t they at least offer an explanation

  47. “thats the thing. no dates were ever SOLID. they first said they WANTED to drop it on christmas and if they couldnt make that day they were HOPING for new years. how can one be disappointed in the artists they want music from for taking their time and making sure it’s the best quality?”

    Why talk about a date that’s close when you aren’t even close to finished… I agree with you about the quality certainly, but c’mon man, don’t mention a *close* date

    It’s January 4th. Either when they when Just Blaze was saying he was doing the finishing touches he was bullshitting… or they don’t give a shit about getting it out there…

    Maybe something came up, that’s fine, but at least tell us what’s going on. Saying “I hope to put it out christmas, if not that, new years” and then leaving it at that while it’s january 4th is kinda rubbish.

    If he would’ve said “soon” or “early 2010″…people wouldn’t be bitching because it’s only january…once you hit that late mark people feel they’ve been deceived, it’s human nature taking its form in the internet hip hop nation. You should know that people don’t like feeling deceived.

  48. Fuck, that was the longest comment i’ve left up in the motherfucker, feel free to “TL;DR nigga” me.

  49. Steve, stop being such a bitch. Go listen to some other music.

  50. the dopeness = Shake’s biggest fan

  51. “Steve, stop being such a bitch. Go listen to some other music.”

    Hey, fuck you. I don’t give a fuck if Act II comes out in 2011, I know it’ll be fire, I’m patient. I’m just looking at it on from the view of the bitchers over here.

  52. No matter the reasoning, the nigga should’ve just said “early 2010″…then he can drop it whenever without everybody bitching.

    This is what you get when you throw out a date (twice) and don’t meet it

    “Now…you know you done fucked up now, right?”

  53. He’s creating unnecessary hype by throwing out dates…he should’ve just went the Blu route and dropped it quietly.

  54. AMAZING TRACK — people wonder why shady already noticed this guy

  55. ^ he did?

  56. Na, I actually agree with JayElect’s marketing. Throw out dates and miss on purpose, look at the shit storm people making. It builds anticipation and it speads like fire. Good shit JayE. You haven’t lost one fan. Keep doin you.

  57. I heard it’s gonna drop Feb 31

  58. This shit better be like….

    > every hip-hop album ever made in the history of life.

    all this damn waiting…

  59. @ Daveg

    your completely right…he’s been doin this for awhile now and check the hype still surrounding his shit.

  60. I wouldn’t be surprised if when Jay said New Years he meant the Chinese New Year

  61. yeah shake your real smart
    he already has stated that it wasnt seperated tracks
    and i know its different from the 2007 one along time ago

    and your not getting shit that FWMJ doesnt have
    he is actually real close friends with Jay and he told me he doesnt have Act II

  62. ^^umm… where did fwmj even come from? i never brought him up. yea… they are friends. what does that have to do with ANYTHING i said above. i never claimed to have actII either. lmao.

  63. you want proof of how well JayElect’s marketing strategy is working?… read the posts of all the heads salivating all over this release

  64. http://moneymikethefuture.blogspot.com/

    LOOK AT THIS PLEASE IM LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO DO MY NEXT MIXTAPE COVER

  65. oh yeah enjay or cool or anybody, if you just wanna do a mixtape cover you can check me out at reverbnation.com/xaviermusic

    understand if you’re not tryna work for free though, haha, but i’m broke as hell

  66. LOL @ people who even believe in the concept of a “solid release date”. this ain’t 94, cuz, album dates get pushed back on the regular.

  67. LOL @ people who even believe in the concept of a “solid release date”. this ain’t 94, cuz, album dates get pushed back on the regular.

  68. @ spirit equality

    This isn’t a label release though…there’s no politics involved…this is just Jay not wanting to drop shit.

  69. hahaha fucking stans

  70. [...] though… but if this (umm, abstract?) site has anything to say, we’re getting close. As ThijsMe pointed out the track below contains the same verse that closed out Act I with a different beat and [...]

  71. shake is pathetic
    he is always lying about having shit

    and then posts unreleased shit from years ago because he doesnt know anything about the artist and is trying to get blog hits

    “do you listen to music or do you just skim through it?” – Jay-Z

    im still confused how you labeled a song with an Act 1 verse new?
    have you ever even heard it?

  72. ^ why dont you start a blog then instead of bitchin…wackness

  73. @dogonsociety stfu KOBE FOR MYP BITCH!!

  74. If Shake’s so pathetic, get off his site. You’re an idiot for thinking he’s lying about having shit… this one of the biggest hip hop blogs in the world, advertising and exposure is huge for artists.

  75. does anyone know what the artwork was for style wars?

  76. haha Shake doesn’t make dates for rappers @dogon. and i bet he has Act II right now too……hahahaha cuz he’s lyin

  77. I think if it were any one of these other “blog rappers” delaying their shit like this, niggas would just stop fucking with them completeley lol. But niggas believe in Jay and his music, so he can delay this shit for years and still wont’ lose a fan….amazing.

  78. @Shoooot it’s just that Jay’s playing the game right, keepin us on our toes for anything new he releases, and we wait for that shit like its the comin of christ lol

    but besides that it’s cause the dude’s THAT good

  79. at the risk of asking a question that has been answered…

    WHAT MOVIE DOES THIS VERSION SAMPLE?

    I’ve seen all the movies he samples in the OG version, and I want to see this too.

  80. how many people would blow this shake…all up on this man

    detox been delayed how long

  81. also, I think that Lupe = Jay, but this is the exact reason Jay tops him right now. Lu will delay his shit and people will complain and he’ll come out and say shit, and Jay will lay low because Jay knows that the less he says, the more people want his shit.

  82. this isnt the first thing shake lied about
    smh at you fools that believe everything he says

    i know for a personal fact that some artist never hit him up that he said did

  83. ..evidence? hater..

  84. would all of you bitch and moan like this to jay’s face? no.

  85. lol @ this guy claiming i lie about who i talk to. im sorry buddy, but i have no reason to say anything false. now please… pardon my back.

  86. Shake will release when the lights green…sheesh…super mad stan guy in here trippin’…smh.

  87. i dont even have actII haha! ive got one track off the project but thats it.

  88. yo i saw smoking section and they released a few….
    maybe im just trippin.
    please clarify if im wrong.

  89. De la Soul Sample! GOod Choice Jay!

  90. @ Shake

    would you mind releasing that track you have off of Act II? Or will that get you in trouble? haha puhleease!

  91. idk if this is known, but if yall liked moleskine so much this is basically the instrumental, go to 3:10 of this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0yFGFYaG9o youre welcome

  92. Mayne…shits ill…lightin’ one up…damn mayne…this is sooo smooth.

  93. glook Shake

  94. while we wait for ACT 2 http://www.mediafire.com/?w0ymygwdjgr

  95. hmm..still waiting to be overwhelmed by him lyrically.

  96. SMH

  97. Act II is one track
    that would make no sense for him to seperate a single track from it and give it to people

    that track must be mislabled

  98. ^^fine… i have 3 minute and 11 seconds of act II. any more complaints or arguments you can think of?

  99. Are you sure about Act II being a single track? Because in an interview with Sweeney Novakar, he says “Act II will arrive on Christmas day, with over 10 songs and 200mb in size. the music will be produced by Jay himself, Madlib Mr. Porter, Hi-Tek, Beat Autopsy and many more.”

    Soooooo, stfu “dogonsociety”.

  101. [...] that completed Act I, however there is a different instrumental and movie sample used. Spotted: 2db. Jay Electronica: Glass Everywhere (Act I Encore) *(im)patiently waits for Act II* The [...]

  102. ay shake can you hook up the dopeboyz and dopegirls with the part of act II you have.
    I aint gonna lie his music is like crack probably even worse. Jay is too ill.

  103. sweeney said that in 2007
    how many times will it take people to understand that it isnt the same Act II

  104. Well the nigga sent Shake and Nation (itsthecalm.blogspot.com) the same shit, according to Nation’s screen shot, so unless every blogger who received that song is lying, shut the fuck up.

  105. Proof: Nation’s screen shot (peep the playing time)

    http://twitpic.com/v59kw

    R.I.P. dogonsociety

  106. you are fucking clueless
    did you even see FWMJ’s okayplayer post
    he had a screenshot of a file transfer coming in from Jay
    and said it was the same version Just had

    then when i asked him he said that he didnt have it

  107. @HAAK, what movies does he sample? besides the obvious

  108. on that http://jayelectro.worpress.com website, Jay left a comment on a post that says its coming out on June 23rd, 2010….

  109. Is this true?

  110. I saw the post, but then the next post said something to the effect of it coming soon again. Is their any one who knows what’s going on?

    Is it turning into an album?

  111. @Jay Electramadan the blog is not him.
