jay elect's production on this is a very impressive surprise. also, he's had a lot of these beats done for at least two years...he basically played the first two minutes of the album on instagram a while ago with the farrakhan intro on live once. he's also played a few of the beats in video posts over the past two years, including the alchemist song.
I got an impression he's made some of these beats on SP404 and other hardware samplers and it's part of the reason why some of the beats sound muddied up or a little more low fidelity. He follows (or used to) the #modbap hashtag on IG and lofihiphop type stuff
The 10+ year wait has done these 2 things
1. Made fans have unrealistic expectations of an album, to the point that even if this album was a classic, it dont even matter, they're gonna call it trash after 1 listen because of the wait
2. Made fans hype up any and everything that jay dropped to crazy levels, just cause its jay and he's never done this before
And there's tho who enjoy the album for what it is with no high expectations
, which is a great album
Wait...you're telling me what exists???!!!

“I done a song with Jay Electronica featuring Jay-Z and Charlotte Gainsbourg for Jay's album called 'Dinner At Tiffany's/Shiny Suit Theory,' the song is seven minutes. Three and a half minutes have been leaked online, the Jay Electronica and Jay-Z part, the Charlotte Gainsbourg bit hasn't been heard. But it's called 'Dinner At Tiffany's', it's what happened in the evening after Breakfast In Tiffany's. I was like "I want to be the first one to do that title!" And Jay was like "Let's execute!" It's what happened in the evening - to me it's action and adventure. It goes from one place; a 'Moon River' type song and turns into this hip-hop banger with Jay Electronica and Jay-Z. But you have three and a half minutes of Charlotte Gainsbourg doing a three/four times signature sultry orchestra lead. So the Bullitts make action and adventure.”

This njgba first line on the project is already blasphemous

Lol that s*** was brilliant, haven’t seen anyone comment about it yet
Jay really be having some big sean tier bars but because it's religious and he's jay electronica everyone is impressed
Lol that s*** was brilliant, haven’t seen anyone comment about it yet

Yeah 3 of the 4 teasers made it



In matter of fact u can hear souija slim at the end of the first clip
Too bad this one didnt make it tho

what happened why is jay-z on this i dont understand
its good tho
Cause otherwise Jay Elec would still be sitting on his ass not dropping anything. Hopefully this helps ease Jay into dropping more
yo but imagine...if he dropped Act 2 right after like Frank w Endless/Blonde
but yea never gonna happen

Nonono, I agree that was corn, the second part of the line I mean
By “them” he means whites right? Cleverly provocative. Thought that’s what u meant by blasphemous
I wouldn't put it past him to have made us all wait intentionally either tho.
Great album either way.
He literally said it my g
I feel like the reason Better In Tune didn’t make the album is because it’s like an outro track. this outro way too powerful to keep off or shuffle to a different spot on the album

Crazy you can hear GoSS at the end. Honestly wonder what was recorded in “40 days”
