The CONTROVERSIAL Story of Jay Electronica
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 кві 2024
- Jay Electronica has a very confusing legacy. For a time he seemed more like a myth instead of an actual person. At one point he was being propped up to be the savior of hip-hop. But after all that hype that was built, he didn’t manage to release an album for almost a decade.

I remember the morning I found out Act II was leaked and equipped with a link. I neglected everything I had to do that morning to listen and I did not regret it. For it to not have been finished or cleaned up. One of the greatest pieces of music ever
I’m honestly still rooting for Jay Elec to this day. A Written Testimony got a lot of hate but that album is incredible.
incredible is a reach ...it was decent but not worth waiting over a decade for 😂
Its a solid album but Act II is so much betterand should've been dropped instead
Anyone asking the reasoning and lore around Jay Elec are not from the generation. He was super talented as a writer, wiser beyond his age, a culmination of his travels, and respected by hip hop heads. Jay was the guy that blew you away in your first listen and drew you in. 2000-2010 had a ton of hip hop babies. Remember these are the fans of 80s and 90s rappers which have tagged the “Golden Era”. You gotta be in the know to know
“Hope one of y’all is feeling me/ Some of y’all gotta wait til the Final Act of the Trilogy to Get it…”🧐🔮✨
He wanted to be the black Indiana Jones from the NOI with Jungle Fever and that’s what he became. Let that man live!
Great video as usual 🔥🔥
Great video. Still think the best is yet to come as far as Jay Elec.
Thank for covering this man in depth 🙏
I remember everyone doing exhibit c freestyles and everyone sayin he was gonna be next …I waited for his first album and wasn’t disappointed
💯 🌟 Very informative Thank you
Been hooked on him since Exhibit C. Only a genius can pen that.
jus recently i was watching a lot about him and that exhibit c track was on repeatttt
Still is!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@Ayurveduhexhibit b with mos def is the best one
@@idipped2521 never heard of it, I’m gonna go listen 🥰
first minute of the video i already smashed the like button
Can you do the story behind a classic of Lifestylez ov da poor and dangerouz
Where is the clipse video bro?
It’s crazy because despite having 1 album on streaming services Exhibit C truly is one of the best rap songs ever and the strength of tht song kept him relevant all these years, truly an extremely interesting case of someone tht clearly has the talent but although getting tangled up with arguably the richest family ever is a distraction, he definitely had a lot of time to drop so i think it’s safe to say he wasted some of it. The pens always sharp tho, just missed a massive window of opportunity.
Exhibit C is still one of the greatest tracks to make it!!! Top 20 track for me 🤷🏽♂️
He's awesome I'm from Monroe but I live in Arizona but every time I think a day and electronica and his talent I think Eric Badu and how she changes men, their daughter is a beautiful young lady
if you made that intro (first 3 1/2 minutes), BRAVO. that shit was dope asf. im not talking about the rap. I knw that was J Elec. im just saying the visuals with the genesis verse over it. It was really good
Moves to the beat of his own drum..like no other
Universal Soldier was the track.. love you bro
I have his “Victory” mixtape as one of my faves ever but you see it is his greatness that made that “The written testimony” album such a disappointment because it felt like a Jay Z featuring Jay Electronica album.
I didn’t want to hear Jay Z, I just wanted to hear Jay Electronica giving me bars over beats as good as or better than Exhibit A & C.
The mad thing is Just Blaze has tracks in the vault he did with him that we haven’t heard. Just Blaze said this himself!! A whole album’s worth! There are even unreleased tracks produced by Just Blaze with Yasiin Bey (fka Mos Def) they were thinking of being a group!! 😭😢
31:12 youre right it was on TIDAL (thanks to law.. i think?) and it was soon taken off
Still one of my favorite rappers. If I had to choose a rapper to spit the hardest verse to save my life I would choose him.
I was looking at another video when you said you shot up at the new and cameron, that might be true but you shut up because you're one of the best journalism, UA-cam as I've ever seen and I have to check youtubers with a million subscribers from using your voice and content and calling the reaction.
You ARE THE BUSINESS 💯 GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND KEEP THEM COMING
You forgot the mos def x curren$y and jay collab 18:04
He looked right in that F.O.I suit
Music for chapter 3intro?

Im sorry but a man from the magnolia projects messing with a rothschild was hard asf !! Talk about sticking it to the wo(man) 😂😂😂 26:06
Intro fire. Rose pedals.
Bro opened this video like he Ang Lee
I like to say Nas at his best was the pinical but truth be told that's cause it was the 90's but it was probably least then 10 verses..Jay Elect never came short...blew my brain every time
He needs to officially drop Act 2. I’ll buy the vinyl. Act 3 would be great and he could retire and I’ll be satisfied
Wild Magnolia, mother of many soldiers
It’s not just a big 3 in hip hop. Jay Electronica makes it 4
No
no, but he could’ve
He doesn't drop enough.
Jay a Nomad. Rap is just a chick he smashes on when he lands back in America.
Jay Elec looks like the battle rapper DNA
It would be weird for Jay to do an album with his baby mama’s other baby daddy
Think we’ll ever get Act III?
Idk honestly. If Bismallah Boys is truly his next project name then I’m not sure
Well.. it takes Billions of years to create a Diamond 🔹 Naturally so waiting a Decade for an Album is being generous
Yo this dude lowkey sound like Jay electronica if he was way younger lol
I came out the Magnolia like the beetle ⚡️⚡️
I don't understand all the fuss. Like what's so special about his dude?
sorry i aint got the answer im thinking the same and want someone else to reply😂
I would say watch the video to see. Many people (including me) think he’s quite interesting. Has all the talent in the world but didn’t drop an album for almost a decade.
Basically drops a collab album with Jay-Z and then his album he was supposed to drop in 2011 gets leaked and it’s a masterpiece (IMO).
There’s a lot of other things I talk about in the video regarding his story but it’s really bizarre to say the least
He was the man that was suppose to save rap in the late 2000s until he got lazy and Kendrick took the throne
he jus mysterious in general too carrying that mythical ahh presence w hella wisdom and of course talent too
@@cloutcancun thanks for actually explaining im at work and cant watch😂🙏
I remember being a freshman in high school when I heard Exhibit A & C and thinking that this dude was THE FUTURE!
Insane to think that he not only squandered any opportunity he had to be in the KanYe West (don’t @ me)/Kendrick Lamar/ J. Cole GOAT conversation in terms of consistency & longevity…but at least he didn’t just drop after 12-13 years then go away forever 🤷🏽♂️
If jay didnt have anxiety issues we probably wouldve got it sooner.. jay is really shy asf 31:19
Hehehe he said “put it in diddy’s hands himself” ayo😊
Just came here to tell people that actually jay electronica has more music out than what biggie did release in his lifetime which fans regard him as the greatest of all time.
Yeah but biggie was also taken away from us early so I feel like a big part of the goat argument for biggie is hypothetical, even tho he does have 2 certified classics
I’m ngl I was about to turn it off at first that intro been mad long pause
Tell this man to come back to Christ. The true living God.
not your best intro bruh 🤦🏽♂️
Bismillah boys
Why do the best rappers always just lie for no reason and be annoying
First
That’s interesting! Shall we be friends?
