shut the fuck up and release some music, then people might actually care
ILoveB.o.B said this on April 19th, 2010 at 9:04 pm
it’s funny when people get pissed at artists for not releasing music and they shit talk but then when the artist actually releases some music they’re all over the artists dick. it would be cool if he finally dropped an album though

I would rather Jay not release music and hit us with an album later on than jus release one song. as long as he is workin and in the public somethin should come soon.

maybe he drops act 2 after the playoffs

chris_martian said this on April 19th, 2010 at 9:47 pm
jay said act 2 is like 2 years old, i still wanna hear it but i really want to hear the album
honestly i think a lot of people have the wrong impression of what act 2 is, i think people think its a mixtape when jay said it wasnt a mixtape. act 1 was jus that long eternal sunshine song so act 2 might jus be one song also idk
Boomerang Slang said this on April 19th, 2010 at 9:51 pm
I remember him saying that he doesn’t need music to financially support him so he can pretty much drop songs whenever he wants, and take as much time as he needs to perfect it. So as impatient as I’m getting I can’t blame him.
Astarisborn said this on April 19th, 2010 at 10:06 pm
fuck this shit
stop doing interviews. you’re not even that fucking dope. Hype is gone. You might as well re-release the same track and do more interviews. YOu’ve released all of 10 songs your whole career. Fall off.

chris_martian said this on April 19th, 2010 at 10:32 pm
Everybody that is whining about Jay releasing more music should shut the fuck up and recognize that real art takes time and isn’t forced. There are legions of corny ass rappers who make watered down bullshit freedownload renditions of the same fucking song time after time and us internet nerds jack off to it and bitch about it when its late. That shit is ruining the game. I am sick of this instant gratification culture that hip hop has become where if u arent dropping something free every minute its like ur dead to the world. Let this nigga breathe…get off his dick…and go see if u can actually even understand what the fuck hes talking about before u bitch about not having more free shit. Fuck.
BigTam said this on April 19th, 2010 at 10:34 pm
He does too many interviews, where’s the tracks?!
But seriously, don’t hate because he’s not dropping songs. Some people here are fucking disgusting. You guys get that shit for free, go suck Jay Z’s dick.

Boomerang Slang said this on April 19th, 2010 at 10:38 pm
i like how people think Jay is like the new hot artist right now. he was making music before all the “hype”. i’m pretty sure Jay doesn’t even believe in hype. he’s not gonna sell out or some shit, jay don’t operate like that. if you’ve listened to all his songs you’re gonna realize only a handful of rappers can match him…and none of them changed their style or pace for anyone. let the man do what he wants. it’ll probably be free anyway…so chill.
bucknasty said this on April 19th, 2010 at 10:44 pm
@Everyone who is calling haters haters
First of all stop using the word hater to describe someone with an opinion that you don’t agree with.
Second of all, nobody is asking Jay to flood the market Gucci/Charles Hamilton style. Its one thing to drop some dope music here or there, but to go a couple years of dropping only a handful of finished songs, features and snippets/unfinished product is just ridiculous. Not only that, but to do interviews in which you constantly talk about upcoming projects that will most likely never see the light of day, or promise projects and never really give an update on how far along they are, is also stupid.
Jay Electronica is becoming hip-hops biggest tease, and thats not hate, thats just the truth.
Damn said this on April 19th, 2010 at 10:48 pm
^agreed dude nice aint no music though lol
nigga got hella interviews though….if i download them and put them in a folder it probably would come out to like 5gb
bbs said this on April 19th, 2010 at 10:54 pm
mane f**K that, let me be a hater this time, I’m just a fan of good music. Dude needs to release some songs, and most of his old songs are horrible quality or just hard to find. Thats why people are saying he only got about ten songs, his whole career because there is only a hand full of good quality songs actually circulating though the internet. He seems so anxious to dude interviews because everytime he talks so loud!!! lol
DVoc said this on April 19th, 2010 at 10:56 pm
Jay Electronica is becoming hip-hops sleeping saviour
how can u talk shit about one rapper who says
the voice of a angel
telling me my name
telling me that one day imma be a great man transforming with the MegatronDon spittin out flames
eatin wack rappers alive shittin out chains
jay is sure devolping his book of rhymes ,because it’s a serius thing,someone remember what is hip hop¿¿¿ I begin to think hip hop is dead because people forget what it is
chris_martian said this on April 19th, 2010 at 10:57 pm
yeah, there’s plenty of compilations circulating the net with 40+ songs.
bucknasty said this on April 19th, 2010 at 11:00 pm
I think Big Tam and Damn both make good points. But as long as the music is worth the wait I’m good.

…tighten up Jay. You’re on camera. LOL!
J-Mid. said this on April 19th, 2010 at 11:03 pm
i dont think u should get mad at the artist for doin interviews but probably the people who post it cuz a lot of artist do interviews porbably jus as much but for some reason jay elect’s and j cole’s keep showin up on the internet. and these inerviewers keep askin the same ass questions so they gonna give them the same answers so u cant really blame the artist. i kno j cole gets pissed when they keep askin him how he hooked up wit jigga.

I respect the time it takes to make “art” but at some point there must actually be said “art.” 40 songs does not make a rap career. He’s lucky he (sand)bagged ANKH and can suck her financially Window Seated teet via the existence of their child.
Art is not art if there is no art. Rome wasn’t built in a day, but it was still actually built. Get it together on the mic, Jay, and I’ll give two shits what you have to say on camera … maybe.
Peschy said this on April 20th, 2010 at 5:10 am
^^^^geez u niggaz act like he hasnt dropped a song in like 2 years. it hasnt been that long. back in the day there was no music on the internet and some artist would drop an album every 3-4 years. its not that serious jay is gonna blow us away when the time comes
