"Although I'm usually the only one who writes long-winded diatribes on the website much to the chagrin of Big Life, I promise to keep it short and sweet rather than re-hash everything that every other blogger has said about the project. It's clear from listening to "Watch The Throne" that Jay-Z needs Kanye more than Kanye needs Jay-Z. Go back and re-read that. I realize I'm opening a can of worms here, but Kanye simply had more to offer on this project. Kanye clearly keeps Jay-Z young and inspired. Don't get me wrong, Jay-Z is miles beyond any rapper in terms of numbers, clout, and respect. I mean, While Jay-Z and Kayne watch the throne, Yo Gotti and Lil' Boosie are watching the futon. The competition isn't even fair. However, I think it's safe to say, with the release of "Watch The Throne", Kanye has officially surpassed Jay-Z artistically and creatively."

i completely agree with this opinion, but then again i think we already knew one day this wud come

Everything on Fresh New Tracks I agree with. The dude is smart when it comes to music

 

[Phucker]

I don't agree with the praising of Jay. Kanye being the bigger artist these days was also clear a few albums ago I believe.

The fact you just learned this amazes me

everyone knows Jay is the better rapper

This doesn't mean anything. They are both artists just as much - just different. People need a better word to describe the difference in Ye's favor.

I disagree. As an artist, I already knew Ye>Jay.

Hov is slowly losing mic presence tho. Ye had much more presence on the tracks where he actually had more than 8 bars

and if history tells us anything Hov's next effort won't touch this

Ye makes his own beats, hooks, and album packaging. I'm sure the idea/concept for anything as grand as WTT and it's artistic direction (cover, music) was Ye being Ye.

no. you mad?

Obviously Ye had a hand in co-producing most of the album. So I could see an argument there. But as far as lyrics go Ye got bodied. I honestly thought Ye was going to have a better lyrical performance....

Jay-Z does not need Kanye and Kanye does not need Jay-Z.  If people think one rapper outperformed the other then fine, but saying Jay-Z needed Kanye is pretty stupid.
