the JIM JONES - PRAY IV REIGN thread

[untitled]

What's REALLLLLY missin in this album is the soul samples.... that harlem ambience that was so prominent on his last 3 efforts,

No G's ups..

No This is jim jones...

None of that blaxplotation feel....

All those back to back R&B tracks saddled this album down...

The only good slow jams were:

Rain

My My My

This is the life

After that it should've been some kufi smacka jim jones
--------------------------
Blow the bank is ok...wreaks
Of douchbagness though

Mediciene GOTTA be nominated as one of the worst beasts of 2009....

How to be a boss is meh..

Let it out sounds ok...not what I want jim jones rappin on though...

If I can sum this one album with one word...its FORCED.

I can't even speak on how bad it is

Lets revisit this quote by the one and only Mr Dash...

"Jim isn't really considered a lyrically gifted M.C. How are you gonna change that?"

Dash: "If you come down and listen to his album [Pray IV Reign], and I'm not sure if I'm too close to the music or the project, but %%@# soundslike a classic. I'm a make a bold statement and put it in the same league as Reasonable Doubt and The Chronic."

Dude is a curse...

Jim isn't really considered a lyrically gifted M.C.
Exactly. Dude always been a hype man/iish talker of the crew to me.
I used to

when he first started havin his lil solo tracks. If it wasnt
for ghost writers, I dont think we would be havin this convo. Jim's
not an artist, by any means.

Damn its basura..jim just dont have it without Max

 

[the gangsta m crisis]

OMG you guys are tripping seriously. I mean, yes the album is different from his previous joints, but why does different have to be bad?




I admit, the middle of the album with those R&B joints is doo doo, but the rest of the album is pretty darn good if you ask me. Especially "My MyMy" and "This is the Life", great messages in those songs.




I'm not even a big Jim Jones fan, but I rock with Pray IV Reign

 

[eightysbaby]

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

[ThaxbyChamblis]

This %%*% sucks?

Good

That's what the !++@ you get.

ok seems this album was a victim of BAAAD editing...

if you had your 3rd eye open, there was a mixtape that jim jones dropped that was about 9 tracks long...looks like the cutting floor material for Pray IVreign...

it had about 4 joints that could've EASILY replaced those weak R&B joints....

then the street religon mixtape that dropped a week ago..pssh jim jones need to fire the yes man around his camp that co-signed that fnal stage of thisalbum....

 

[fly1587]

Man it wack and it suck..The only track i like is..

The Track wit Luda and rain
