Jay Electronica x Act II

While Kanye has got the Internets going nuts, Jay Electronica has been residing in London for the past few weeks, working relentlesly in the studio, putting the concluding touches to the highly anticipated debut album, Act II. Jay invited me down to the studio to hear some of the cuts of the album, and although I can't talk on the specifics, from what I heard, I can say that it is everything you expect times 10. It is a masterpiece, diverse Hip Hop excellence. The guest features that he has pulled out of the bag for the collaborations are pretty much beyond your current comprehension, and the journey making this album is as inspiring as the music itself. He's done it, followed the code, cracked the safe, got the formula. The wait is almost over. -- DJ Semtex

when you going to drop that album Jay, you taking long!

[hapawes1]

I can wait. Everything today is instant. It's thrown at u so fast that soon ur running away & don't care cuz its too much at once. I miss the days of waiting a month for a new magazine to come out and reading genuine quality articles. Not some 16 yr old blogger who thinks he knows about old school hip hop. Or waiting a year or two for an album and bumping it for 5 years. That's what Jay's doing, crafting a quality piece of work that will be talked about in the pages of hip hop history.

[MrCommenterguy]

@VirginiaTagz naah i wouldn't like it. Not on his debut album atleast. if he does that all the attention will go to the tupac verse being on there, his debut has to be all him to he can make a classic album- like nas did.
