As we already know, about a week ago week ago (salute to Bobby Schmurda) JAY-Z dropped what is no doubt his most emotional and conscious album, the now platinum 4:44. With what seems as a montage of Reasonable Doubt, Blueprint, and American Gangster, JAY-Z gives fans answers to some of the most controversial events in his life that we all had questions about, without letting us down lyrically. The most talked about album this week even in the celebrity world, good or bad. Good reviews included from rapper Kendrick Lamar calling Jigga “Master Teacher” to singer and reality star K. Michelle tweeting, “Thank God the heavens heard our cry. We get to listen to some REAL RAP LYRICS. Good music do something to me.” Check the posts.
