Its called progression.
Production hasn't sounded like RD production this decade either.
Dudes are mad unrealistic sometimes.
Word! How and why would you even expect the same flow when production has evolved?! If anything you should also expect ones flow to evolve too.

Nah man I cant co-sign that. Jays music/flow has not lost value or substance in fact he has made some of his best music in the latter part of hiscareer. Flows are meant to evolve and great artists evolve and continue to make great music. The continuation of making great music is the true measuringstick of progress when it comes to music. Jay has continued to make great music while his flow has evolved and that's exactly what makes him a greatartist.

His holiness....
Y'all need to cut that corniness out. Dude gets his fair share of criticism and just because someone is defending a verse or a flow, doesn't mean theythink he's the second coming of Jesus.
I rarely ever here people calling for Nas to have an Illmatic flow in 2008 or for Ice Cube to rhyme like Amerikkkas Most Wanted....people take their new musicfor what it is and judge it at face value. It seems like with Jay-Z there is always a "*". Some one always wants to hear something else fromhim...Its 2008.....Hip-Hop only grows through exerimentation and variation. If someone sounds the exact same musically for 11 years....they ain't worthlistening to.

looses value or substance we call it regression. The evolution of production has nothing to do with it. Scarface has kept his flow in tact since he first
switched it up 17 years ago. Jay's flow on RD>* and if it aint broke don't fix it, that's just my opinion. I didn't bash Jay or anything,
i just mentioned something that's on my hypothetical hip hop chirstmas list. Excuse me for speaking badly about "his holiness," i should of
known better.

We're not talking about his ability to continually make great music. We agree on that. Just because his flow has evolved doesn't mean it's servedhis music for the better. Once again, imo his flow earlier in his career was

you need to remember that these aren't facts, there my personal opinions. With that said, with a lot of his new $%*+, lyrics check, beat check, micpresence check, flow, ehh leaves a lot to be desired. He never comes with weak subject material or **!+#@ beats, his only reoccurring flaw to me has been hisflow at times.

i just listen to the song a couple more times over but the beat and the hook are the two things stuck ing my head not any lines from the flow. i dont think theman is losing quality or substance but his appeal is whats dying off. jay kinda been rapping about the same stuff for a couple of years now ( so haave manyother rappers) but so much more is expected because his fans put him up on such a high rank!

this track is garbage. santogold's OG track was better. not really a "featuring" track... 'ye just sampled her track for the hook/beat.
