Do the materialistic lyrics on Otis bother you?

I've been reading comments/blog post reviews and they're have been quite a few who are upset that they mostly rap about how rich they are. I don't understand why it would bother someone so much. Ironically if bothers you does that mean you are jealous. I may not have all the money in the world, but it doesn't bother me that Jay and Ye have more

No. The album is called WATCH THE THRONE and it's by two of the greatest rappers of all time. Plus it's a single. What do you expect them to talk about? And from reviews from the listening session, the album is not all bragging.

Nah, I'd say that it's useless waste of verses. It has nothing to do with being jealous. It's just empty words that most people cannot relate to. Lyrics that bring out feelings and emotions are priceless. This discussion on wealth is not even a try to reach out to the listeners. If it's that big of a deal to Jay & Ye, then fine. I just wish they'd have something meaningful to say. Them being rich means nothing to me.

CD and LR are filled with materialistic lyrics. That doesnt mean they aren't both filled with great songs or both great albums. 
lol what? Scrap LR for now, CD in specific? The only materialistic song is like Slow Jamz.

Dont get me wrong I like Otis too.
