    says: (17 Apr '10)

    I heard Lupe and Jay were going to do a collab. I nevver heard of Jay until then and still didn't look up any songs of his until that 10 minute acapella freestyle Lupe did in which he said, "I can't wait until i get into the studio with Jay Electronica. I mean like, he inspires me, sends fires in me. Takes all the retire from me.

    For Lupe to say that he must be really good, I thought so I looked him up and my mind was blown. This guy is amazing and is quickly becoming one of the best in my opinion. So I ask, what is your guy's favorite songs from Jay Electronica.

no, you said you've listened to about 20 songs. (Of which I'm sure only a handful are legitimately "great'). That's enough to fill maybe 1 mixtape. Dude doesn't have an album, majority of his stuff is just misc. songs. And he has a handful of really good ones. Again, I don't quite get how this equates to him becoming "one of the best". That's like a Director making 1 really good film, and someone saying "He's quickly becoming one of the best". lol. No scratch that, it's like a Director making a really good SHORT film, and a couple decent ones, and someone making that comment lol.

Nianja your accusing me of only listening to four songs, when in fact you've only listened to four. Listen to more songs before making an opinion of him because your being way to unfair. He again is quickly becoming the best in my opinion and that isn't from listening to four songs. Your opinion doesn't even matter anymore nianja because of what you said.

i could probably pick almost any artist, who will have 4 songs better than a mainstream album. its quite hard for your 4 best songs to be below average.

"Those four songs you listed are better than most mainstream rappers whole albums." Well funny you should mention that. BECAUSE NOBODY ELSE HAS IN THIS ENTIRE THREAD. Who the f*** is talking about JUST mainstream rappers? And how does Jay Elec being better then most mainstream rappers, equate to "quickly becoming one of the best"?

NIANJA stfu, "Nuts. Off. Hop" WTF are you suppose to be cool or something, your lame. Those four songs you listed are better than most mainstream rappers whole albums. When Lupe released most of his mixtapes, before Food & Liquor, I already thought he was beoming one of the best. I didn't listen to," a handful of songs," again you don't know me and what I listen to so STFU. I said he's quickly becoming of the best in my opinion, I didn't state it as fact.

I've heard Exhibit A,B,C and Eternal Sunshine from him already. That's really all I know him from. Exhibit C being the only track from him I wasn't feeling at all. Rest were pretty good. But regardless, lol @ hearing a handful of songs and making a remark like "quickly becoming one of the best" lol. His few good tracks aren't THAT great, and dude hasn't even released an album yet. Nuts. Off. Hop.

I'm not going to type down every song I listened to him, his song titles are really long and difficult to spell lol. I've listened to probably more than 20 songs of him, which is alot more than most rappers i've listened to. Nianja I recommend listening to exhibit a,b,c, abracadabra, renaissance man, my world(nas salute), I feel good, and something to hold on to, and finally the best one i've heard so far, eternal sunshine the plege. Really look up the last song it's amazing. His sonsgs are great which is why I asked what songs people liked of him so I can check it out.

Well what exactly have you listened to by him then? Because to the best of my knowledge he's only just become relevant recently, and only has a bit of material out that I've heard of.

Alright, don't be a little b****. You don't know me or what i've listened too. Hes quickly becoming one of the best from is what many people are thinking, including Lupe. I didn't say he WAS the best and no i've listened to almost all of his songs.
