Did some research and it’s a reference out of the 1988 novel the alchemist. I would do a quick scan through but I’m about to go to work. Hope that leads you in the right direction.

Nah I’m feelin Hov more ngl

Can’t believe I’m listening to a Jay Elect album. Can’t wait to play this for my son he is 13.

You could feel him more but to take out Elect verses is delusional.

love the running theme of integrity vs. success

need the fewtch edit of wattba back

nvm

is this on AM yet? or will it be?

S*** got me embarrassingly hype, couldn’t even explain to my girl why I needed to pop a bottle with a cigar and have some alone time lighting incense at 1:30pm on a Friday

it is already just look it up coach

Lol niggas on twitter trying to say Hov washed him. I’m just tryna defend jay e. Relax nigga

one of the better rap albums of the last few years

This is amazing damn. I've always been intrigued by this guy but wasn't a hardcore fan. Always thought the wait was a little silly but this project is fire AF. Can't believe all the Hov featuro

Tbh. Like you can tell Jay in a different lane with some of these verses for me personally like on Universal Soldier.

Taking nothing away from Hov though

Shiny Suit Theory is a 2009-ish track right?

Hov’s verse sounds like BP3 era

That’s the one that when I heard Hov verse I was like this s*** is night and day. Jay Elect just substance is just on a different level.

Yup. I haven’t listen to that song since the album dropped. Sounds out of place.

not sure why Jay’s vet status means anything?

there’s probably gonna be a pic of Jay and Mach or a Jay-z tidal playlist featuring Mach before the end of the year. he’s been cribbing flows in exchange for a look his whole career

Hypnotizing

Exactly

legendary performance

said he's a d***riding pha**ot who loves the attention
