Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole, but even in gold-plated New York, Jay starts to sound like one. (And how recently did he wrap recording this, anyway?)īut the stacks of cash and Warhols Jay uses to wall off the world can get exhausting. Who knows what’s up with the Miley Cyrus twerking reference.

The beat sounds like Zomby circa “Strange Fruit,” all neon burble and 8-bit hiccup, and Jay-Z sounds like he’s having the time of his life - just listen to the way he hollers out “This my Wayne Perry flow,” riding the last word like a skateboard, or the way he savors the syllables of “Fuck hashtags and retweets.” “I don’t pop Molly, I rock Tom Ford” is itself a brilliant, hilarious line (and I eagerly await Trinidad James’ response - hopefully, a scathing one). But “BBC” is so infectious - its perky, percolating sing-along funk makes a natural companion piece to Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” - that it’s hard to stay mad at the audacity of the whole scheme. Doesn’t matter that many, many people will be getting this album from Zippyshare links: The first one’s always free, right? Jay gets paid, Samsung gets its name out there, and Google and Twitter mop up the runoff. Which, whether he means to or not, kinda begs the difference between drug dealers and telcos, given how they’ve gotten us hooked on gadgets and media gimmicks - just like this one. The best and most ridiculous song on MCHG - the stupid, fun, and stupid fun “BBC” - is an homage to the “D boy drug-dealer look,” a before/after portrait that juxtaposes yesterday’s Fila sweats and rope chains with the kind of shit you can only buy once you start slinging cell phones for a multinational like Samsung. Or maybe we should be calling it app rap? Because the medium really is the message here. #Newrules, right? So Jay-Z takes ringtone rap to the next level. Most of the lead-up to this album has been a business story, which makes sense, given the businesses (man and multinational, respectively) that brought this particular, peculiar product to market. But is this thing any good? Here, five SPIN editors offer their hasty and completely impulsive opinions. Something similar (and even more American) happened on the Internet. on the Fourth of July, Samsung Galaxy owners nationwide honored America by furtively attempting to download the new Jay-Z album, Magna Carta Holy Grail.
