This is true art. Jay is a true artist. C'mon man, the Willy Wonka sample with the eerie beat mushed up into a Elijah Muhammad quote. He rapped from the prospective of a man living post Katrina reporting his observations, ending with the shoot out and closing with another Elijah Muhammad quote.
This dude really might be the GOAT rapper. I mean I can't think of too many that create like this. It's gritty, introspective, abstract, juxtaposed...all in one.
John C. Spain facts
hes the fulfillment of hip hop
the formula of his songs are always so dope. samples from something epic, like an iconic movie or prominent historical figure, usually over some instrumentation of audience, it makes most of the tracks he does like this sound like a live performance youre attending. makes a hip hop track feel like this really professional, classical type of event you need to dress up and wear a suit n tie for. and the instrumentals are really laid back or stripped, not so much going on but enough for him to speak his peace onto.
facts his use of imagery and story telling are unrivaled imo. None of his rhymes sound forced its like hes just talking in perfect cadence in, this song especially.
I'd pay good money for these tracks on vinyl Jay. With that picture as the cover
MAN!!!
I avoided this song for many years because it shook me up..But now that my grandmother has passed I listen to it almost every day....
Condolences on the loss of your grandma. Hope this song helps you get through it
I respect your movement jay you've always been a inspiration to me fuck an album I'm content with the jewelz you drop when your ready these niggaz need to focus on their chakra instead of his album
When people say hip hop is lost and has no meaning any more...I say go listen to Jay 🙏
I forgot how good Jay Electronica's production was and how unique and beautiful his art is. These are gems
This my favorite song
I would love to get my hands on Jay Electronica cd. Ishallah.
"Google me, baby, understand where I'm coming from
My destiny's to hit a grand slam when my number come
All hail the lyrical, Grand Wizard Imperial"
It's time
Thank you in advance
Love you mom and grandma get some rest
JAY ELECT!!!

Apollo G. Facts
Always sing this Wonka sample when iii am dolo. Love your lyrics "Let me see some ID/ I say yeah; sure I'll oblige thee/ Here sir there's my passport..." " Tell me what Elijah said about how we came from space again." "Now wouldn't you have to be a member of people like that?"
Same..especially when it gets dark and ominous
