    1. WANNABE INTELLECTUAL NIGGA LMFAO..HALF OF THE HOOD WILL NOT UNDERSTAND THIS SHIT WE STAY THUGGIN AND GETTIN ROOSTER IN THE RARI TYPE A SHIT FUC YO NOBLE PRIZE ASS RAPPIN ALBUM

    2. Another MASONIC OCCULTIST ILLUMINATI rapper coming out for all to see, except all you dummies will deny that they exist, and are major players on the music scene…DUMMIES…

    3. imo that sounds like a Ill tracklist,agree tho that it should of been announce along with a release date.

    4. Its been 18 months, 15 days and 10 hours since Jay Electronica signed to Roc Nation. But today, the enigmatic MC finally released the tracklist to his long delayed album, Act 2: Patents Of Nobility. The chances of this seeing the light of day are probably slimmer than a Calvin Klein model, but we can dare to dream. Check it out below.

      1. Why would you say that?

        Oh because the Mayans said so… NO they fucking didn’t, do research to find out what they actually “predicted”

    5. oh look one of the songs features Ronald Reagan

      this fool is one to talk about nobility when he’s been creepin with a married woman, cuckolding her husband

    6. Why are Kanye and Jay-Z featured twice but no Nas?? People only know about this dude because people like Nas, and Just Blaze were co-signing him back in 07 or 08…Before these other dudes jumped on the bandwagon. He should show some respect.

      1. Fuck you, you don’t know shit about what’s going on behind the scenes… maybe he didn’t make a song that would fit a Nas feature, or maybe he didn’t want to get killed on his shit

    7. this shits disappointing and I’m a huge Jay Eletronica fan….I hope he really doesn’t sound too mainstream on it

    8. *yawn*

      why would a company waste money putting out an album with someone with no buzz? i think jay is incredibly dope. but exhibit C was 2009 or so. if the label wont put out a project at least put some music out to stay relevant. no one cares anymore man…no one cares.

      PS by no one i mean people who are not already rabid Electronica fans.

    9. What a fuckin disappointment. Was this the reason for the delay? So they can flood his album with all these bullshit features. If I’m not mistaken DX published an article where it was stated there would be little to no appearances.

      Fuck you Roc Nation you are officially shiting on hip hip. How dare you take advantage of this highly anticipated album to promote such shitty corporate hip hip.

      As Premo said on the last Gangstaar album:

      FUCK YOU FUCKIN ROBOTS

      1. Calibeatbox420, I guarantee you weren’t even gonna buy the album in the 1st place. If that’s the case, then why are you bitching?

    10. He still need a release date and a single before their any hype about his album dropping. He already been signed for 18 months and he been out for since 07-08. I see think dropping 2013 at the earliest. This guy make no apperances and he only give a snippet of his song then take a year to drop it with 2 verses.

    11. i can’t wait for this shit, but hopefully it doesn’t take another 3 years for another update on the album.

    12. dead @ feat ronald reagan. wonder how much they charged him for a verse. this shit gonna swim in mediocrity

    13. *Breaths* phew finally, I thought he was gonna detox our asses and just stay in the basement and hide there for another 2-4 years.

      1. he probably will

        u know how many time this nigga was supposed to drop singles or videos and never came through

    14. FCUKBOIS CRYIN CAUSE SOME RAPPER AIN’T DROP A MP3 WHEN U WANTED IT

      YEP HE IN ANOTHA COUNTRY IN SOME BILLIONAIRE PUSS WHILE HIS COMPANY HANDLES BUSINESS

      DA FCUK U CRYIN 4?

    15. this fool is one to talk about nobility when he’s been creepin with a married woman, cuckolding her husband
      +++++++++++++++

      B CAREFUL CAUSE YO MOMMA MAY HAVE HAD HELLA 1 NITE STANDS WHILE MARRIED

      & U HERE SPEAKIN BOUT NOBILITY NOBODY’S PERFECT

      STOP IT

    16. jay sucks. overhyped. nigga just using different vocabulary but in essence he aint saying nothing coherent. he’s worse than 2chainz

    17. gay harmonica is a FRAUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      most overrated rapper ever manufactured by the internet!!!!!!!!!!

      gay blogger dudes with mop tops and nerd glasses listen to played retardedfrauds shit and think its next level!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      for all the hype this nigga gets he has 2 songs that DONT suck!!!!!!!!!!!!

      everything else is dude rhyming over lame movie soundtracks and wack beats that would put a crackhead to sleep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      “OMG hes gonna save hip hop” – nerd faggot that started listening to rap sometime after he got bored of coldplay

      guy sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      rap fans desperately looking for a new act to claim as the future dude is 42 years old and lazier than you are!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      keep looking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      1. JAY ELECTRONICA A FUCKIN FAKE PHONY NAS CLONE WHO THINK HE “PHILOSOPHICAL” STICK TO MAKING BEATS U COME OUT WITH EVERY 3 YEARS

    18. great…just what hip hop needed, another album packed with features. Wouldn’t be surprised if jay elec came out and told us all that game is his biggest influence. Without the name dropping they seem like a perfect fit. Old school sound, packing their albums with features and of course the over hyping to no end by their fanbase.

      1. There’s what 11 features and most of them will be like verses and hooks which is to be expected from an album with a label on it. The big names are to get attention and come on, Jay and Ye are in the spotlights after that WTT came out so it’s no surprise they’re featured, people will click on anything if a name is there that they like… it’s exactly why I took interest in this here article about Jay Elec’s album. If you take out all the features and hooks and guests on this album, it’d still be a good percentage of Jay Elec verses and him rapping. Also being influenced by someone younger than you? no, you should be old enough and wiser and more mature and should know better… if Jay actually said Game influenced him I’d laugh and probably disregard anything else this guy has to say based on that because I think that’d be the dumbest influencing ever.

    19. we been waitin on this bum to put something out for a minute. Dude needs to go to an AA meeting and get sober so he can actually put something out.

      1. I’m pretty sure all involvement from Jay Electronica has been put into this album. It’s literally just the label being too pussy to drop it in case it flops. There are no singles or none of that shit so they don’t know how to market this shit. I say drop it and let the fans find it rather than trying to put it in peoples faces. Besides can you imagine if “New Illuminati” was a single and they played that on the radio? I don’t even wanna guess the content of that song to know it would never get airplay which is exactly what the label doesn’t want.

    20. I can’t believe the hate from people towards this guy. Your all either just straight haters or your pissed that it’s taken so long and if that’s the case then go back to google or youtube and do some fucking research because Jay Electronica has at LEAST 63 GOOD songs out that he released FOR FREE WITHOUT A LABEL DEAL.

      If you love rap music and it’s culture then you’d appreciate J.E. and you’d fucking listen to his lyrics and his music rather than his affairs or label or how long it’s taken him to create a good album for you hip hop wannabe motherfuckers who don’t deserve to listen to it.

    21. Why is this crap? Because Jay-Z, Kanye, and Diddy are featured on it? Because track #2 with ‘Ye is called “New Illuminati”?
      Quit hating, lame niggas who become gangstas on the internet and feel power behind the keyboard lol
      Jay Elec is a good. Should’ve grabbed Roc Nation label mates J. Cole and Rihanna.

    22. straight up and down, this fool is what some might call “hip hop police”. Look at who he keeps company (Jay Z, Puff, That Rothschild Heiress bitch, kanye) this nigga is A NAS CLONE. NAS IS A SELLOUT, HIP HOPDX IS WACK AS FUCK, AND ANYONE OF YALL DX COMMENTERS WHO DISAGREE CLEARLY DO NOT KNOW THE POLITICS OF THE GAME! FUCK THESE FAKE ASS UNDERGROUND INDUSTRY RAPPERS!!!!!!!!!!!

    23. NEVER BEEN A FAN OF THIS GUY, BUT I’M KINDA CURIOUS ABOUT THIS ALBUM…HOW IS POSTING A TRACKLIST WITHOUT RELEASE DATE THOUGH?

    24. this nigga is fucking joke if he thinks Jay-Z gonna clear two features on his album.

      fake ass tracks.

    25. This isn’t the original album. He’s been saying that the album was completed in interviews as far back as late ’10 early ’11. So obviously Jay rejected the original just as he did with Cole, which as label head is his right. Remember signed artists don’t get much of the cut from album sales. They get their money upfront in the form of an advance. The label recoups through album sales and a slew of other fee’s applied to the artist. Point being, Jay made an investment so he wants to make the biggest profit as possible. That’s where all these features come in I’m sure there weren’t this many on the original. So no it’s not going to be what it had the potential to be. Just as Cole was forced to come up with Work Out, Can’t Get Enough, Nobody’s Perfect(We all know those tracks aren’t Cole at his purist), Expect Elect to have a couple tracks that make you say,”ahhh shit this nigga sellin out.” But the reality of it is simple, if you don’t give the label head what he wants, what he feels will be profitable, your shit will never see the light of day. Oh and just how are you gonna pay him back that fat advance he gave you??

      1. i remember either Jay or somebody that talked to Jay about Jay Electronica’s album said that Hov said it was a classic, an amazing album, but it was lacking singles, and until they figured out singles for the album, then it would have to wait to come out…or some shit like that.

      2. r u sayin elec sold out for hova
        could money buy the man from the claimed underground
        don’t need a label don’t need a hook im’a never sell out
        c.r.e.a.m.
        yes
        probably

      3. KadafiThaDon

        Most definitely the most educated and truest post I’ve ever seen on this site. Well said!

      4. Very much on point. Reminded me of his,”dumbed downed for my fans and doubled my dollars”,line. Hov tryna sell records and if anyone needs to maybe dumb it down some it’s Jay Electronica. Keep the same message but find a more simplistic way of getting it across. I don’t mind but niggas ain’t gonna spend time tryna decode this shyt.

    26. & It’s still gonna be 100x better than anything out now. So the dummies who just can’t comprehend shit even when a person is instead of exploiting you, trying to to drop knowledge and teach you the true workings of the world and give you great stories and thought provoking shit, yall to just kill ya self asap, because you’re just a lost cause anyway.

    27. JAY ELECTRONICA IS A MARK… HE PUTS HIMSELF SO HIGH UP IN THE LADDER BUT HIS WORK ETHIC IS SHIT AND THIS NIGGA IS A NAS CLONE. FUCK THIS PHONY

    28. WORK ETHIC ACCORDIN 2 WHO

      U?

      LOL

      Y’ALL SAME CLOWNS WHO DEMANDIN MUSIC WOULD DEMAND HE B CRUCIFIED 2MORROW ‘CAUSE A TWEET OR SOME BULLSH!T

      FOH

    29. Lonely ass, no life having, no pussy getting, sad excuse for life ass niggas ain’t got shit else to do but shit on the cpu on blogs and shit and try to provoke others into arguments by clicking on a nigga link that they know they love, then type a bunch of hateful dumb shit. Then wanna act like tuff guys and shit. In your heart and mind yall goddamm well Jay Elect ain’t whack. If he whack then WTF is everybody else?. I swear if I could get rid of hateful pple and pple with low IQ’s and get away with it I would. Nas ain’t even real nigga. All his albums are “conceptual”. He raps behind a persona.”Escobar”… Ahh shit I fell for it. I’m out man

      1. SHUT THE FUCK UP U WANNA BE ELITIST SON OF A BITCH! NO WONDER NIGGAZ IS GETTING SWASTIKA TATS…

        JAY ELECTRONICA AINT MY CUP OF TEA AND NAS AINT MINE, DEAL WITH IT U FUCKING FAGGOT.

        I DON’T LIKE YALL HIP HOP NERDS EITHER BUT I DONT WANNA KILL YALL, THEN U WANNA BE THE “EDUCATED” ONE WITH THESE CHILDISH THOUGHTS.

    30. the strangest list of song titles ever award goes to… I just hope the music is dope. he been holding on to this shit like it’s detox or something

      1. you tyler perry niggas aren’t smart enough to know the 5% knowledge. Jay will educate you when this shit drops

    31. the Gods and Earths dropping some knowledge on you dumb ass 85% motherfuckers. taking it back to the ’90s with this shit. finally a Five Percenter is gonna rock the hip-hop music world once again. Hip-Hop’s Reckoning bitches. Get ready, it’s been a long time coming

      1. Paid in Full, 36 Chambers, Illmatic, Liquid Swords, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx — all 5% albums. nigga we OWNED hip-hop back in the day. this Jay nigga better bring it and continue the legacy. Peace to the Gods and Earths

      2. Jay Elec IS a Five Percenter, you retards. and “Earths” means female Five Percenters. jeez, do your homework

      3. Too bad 5%s are morons. They speak like fucking fools. Speak proper English not some made up horse shit.

      4. only retards don’t understand what they say. Five Percenters been waiting for this dude too take the game back for a while. finally you dumb asses will be enlightened. and like that other dude said… Paid in Full, Illmatic, Cuban Linx, Liquid Swords, 36 Chambers…goddamn we fucking ruined every motherfucker in hip-hop. now Jay Elec giving you another dose. faggots

      5. Don’t forget Nas’ Life Is Good, he reps the Five Percenters in a bunch of tracks on there. but Electronica taking this shit a step further. I bet people thought they’d never see 5%ers coming back, did you? ahaha

      6. How is Jay SEllout-Tronica a 5% or a God? He is sleeping and having sex with a white devil/white racist supremacist. He is not just sleeping with any white devil, but the most notorious, evil, and wicked white devils on the planet, “The Rothschild’s”.

        If Jay Sellout-tronica represents “God” and or the 5% depraved culture of pseudo knowledge of drinking alcohol, smoking, and having sex with white devils/white racist supremacist, then know wonder the nation of gods and earths went out of style in the 90’s. The nation of gods and earths are nothing but a nation of hypocrites and lames if they support jay electronica sell out @ss. ha!

    32. that was weak to me , i don’t have worry about jay-z because nobody buy his shit, his fan is white people .

      1. His fan is “white people” so it’s about colour now? last time I checked people were people and they can like whatever. Colour and race aint a thing unless it’s made a thing by people like yourself.

      2. @Annonumous, your race is important and only a naive person would deny certain individuals have a predilection for certain types of music. It’s the reason why when I’m at metal show, I’m the only Brother in attendance. Like it or not, most Black guys have an aversion to metal and no one should do anything to change this. People’s cultural identity have been eroded in the past decade because the music scene has become generic and homogenous and regardless of class, ethnicity, class, gender people make the same insipid tunes. On the odd occasion, people, such as myself are an annomyly due to the music we listen to. The only problem is when Blacks think they have to listen to classical to appear more cultured or whites listening to rap so people think they’re not bigoted. Before Jigga/Nas made music for gays, white girls and middle-class people, they catered to indigenous, street people and made their best music, so dude above me made a valid point.

      3. WHY SHOULD NO ONE DO ANYTHING ABOUT BLACK GUYS’ AVERSION TO METAL???

        WHY DO YOU GET TO DECIDE WHAT SHOULD OR SHOULD NOT BE DONE???

        BECAUSE YOU’RE BLACK???

      1. this is the worst hip-hop generation ever, and this faggot above me proves it. Jay Elec is here to save it, fuck the rest

      2. this is the worst hip-hop generation ever, and this faggot above me proves it. Jay is here to save it, fuck the rest

      3. Blatant disrespect, atrocious grammar. Obnoxiousness and stupidity absolutely bleed from your entire post “So Icy Boi!”. Even your name stands you out as a rapper that I wouldn’t even want to hear. I might have a look at your album cover that nobody’s ever going to think is nice but you. I wish you luck in the music industry, I can already tell if you rap about money and bitches and some idiots build you up a following, a label might one day pay you to act stupid and put out music that can be marketed for their success and your downfall. Nobody will like you properly but the label and they will milk you for every penny they can make off you. You’re the moron who doesn’t care and would be happy with that and thus I will never respect you on a higher level.

      1. i think he’s trying to administer some medication into the mainstream. Big names not the quality of the product matter to these new kids and the mainstream world of materialism and consumerism.

    33. these features throw me off
      then again he always throws me off and that’s actually what i like
      one one hand, i’m like what? yeezy and diddy
      then i’m like – naw, he has never upset me thus far –
      it’ll probably be crazy good at least i hope so
      if not ….

      1. jay and kanye would be a good combination. unless kanye doesn’t rap and does his weird Mercy flow type of shit but diddy is always shit.

    34. Didn’t expect to see a Charlotte Gainsbourg appearance, should be interesting. Anyway, i expect this to be constantly delayed. Look forward to hearing it i guess.

      1. Isn’t this the same chick from them Lars von Trier flicks? I didn’t even know shortie got down on the mic like that. Good actor though, Antichrist was the cerebral Eli Roth torture-porn flick it was ok to like. Melancholia was cool too, but I didn’t buy her character and Kirsten as siblings. Ms. Dunst certainly has a nice rack though.

    35. lol this 38 year old dude never eleased an album and never will.

      go find a job at mc donalds before the irs is coming at cha

      1. Respect your elders. The one finding the job at McDonalds is probably going to be your adolescent self if you keep going the way you’re going.

    36. I’ve heard of Jay Electronica, heard a couple of his joints, liked them and I believe everyone here is closed minded as fuck, writing this off like it’s gonna be terrible already. I can honestly say just by the titles I’m hyped up to hear every track.

      To the people below, what does him being 38 have to do with how good he is as an ARTIST.

      He’s a rapper, not a number, 38 don’t mean shit if the guy makes music that I like. If anything him being 38 makes me happier that he’s not gonna do some immature infinite swag dumb shit, the older you are, the wiser you could get and the more you could know because there’s been time to learn it.

      The features are as good as they’re gonna get for a mainstream label pushed album and the reason this shit is delayed so much is probably because LOOK AT THE FUCKING TRACKLIST…… “New illuminati” featuring one of the most notorious illuminati rappers out… Kanye West.

      This is getting pushed back and delayed not because Jay aint finished, but because what he put on the table is probably too much for a bunch of dumb fucks to handle properly.

      The label is probably scared to drop it because of what it is.

      Same with Detox, I think it’s 30% they’re lazy and can’t decide what’s good enough and 70% trying to build up some legendary hype for the album.

      Even if Dr Dre died that album could drop, and the label that drops it could make a KILLING. Who wouldn’t buy that album out of wondering what it sounds like after so long of it being rumoured to exist?

      1. With Detox they way past “build up some legendary hype for the album” now people are just sick of it. And also with Detox it looks like Dre is gonna get producers to producer his shit, people to write his verses & other artists on the songs to make up 2/3 of every damn song now that’s laziness.

      2. The features are as good as they’re gonna get for a mainstream label pushed album and the reason this shit is delayed so much is probably because LOOK AT THE FUCKING TRACKLIST…… “New illuminati” featuring one of the most notorious illuminati rappers out… Kanye West.”

        We are getting too concerned with the illuminati in the hood. We need to stop. “A track called “New illuminati” featuring one of the most notorious illuminati rappers out… Kanye West” is not the reason the album won’t do “as well” (I can see it doing at least 50k the first week even if they dropped it today.) The answer is in the first part of your statement…Look at the effing track list! What is Jay Electronica on? I don’t want to knock the album as I have not heard it and I believe in not judging a book by the cover, but has there even been a rap album with a more pretentious track listing? What is dude on? He is a fraud. I started hearing about his hype, would click on a couple video to check him rapping and he would spend half the time talking to the audience and maybe drop one song.

        “Bonnie & Clyde” could be a regular rap song, he could be talking about him and a chic, but his got a french rap singer on it, so not sure, “Road to Perdition” he could do something clever that slightly takes from the movie and I don’t see Jay-Z on some space age eesh, so it could be a good one and “Rough Love” could also fit into the mold of a traditional rap song. If they are actually talking about rough love, hopefully, they don’t get too nasty with it, but other than that, dude seems to be on something else.

        I don’t think rap should be stupid, infantile and really just the plain embarrassment that it is turning into for the culture and our people as a whole (this is what we are putting out?) but we don’t want to get too high brow with it either. By the way, albums get delayed not because of the title of a song or two, matter of fact, labels like controversy and will push until they get blowback they can’t deal with. They do it because they determine the album will flop and that’s usually because the singles are falling flat at radio or worse, they are not happy with what the artist turned in. I am not sure if they’ve started pushing singles yet, so is the label pushing the album back or is it Jay himself on some BS?

      1. You’ve got to be something kinda special to release less then 20 tracks 5 years ago and still have this much hype!

    37. This motherfucker is with a Rothschild, one of the evil world running families… do you know who the fuck they are? Lmao this guy struck gold… literally.

    38. wasn’t this nigga supposed to have two nas features on this shit? he replaced him with jayz? see, this is why i cant respect this nigga. this nigga fake as hell. lining up jayz for bigger sales, that shit is unmanly.

    39. Man,this is gonna be off the hinges!Feeling the features except for Diddy,gonna be effin’ raw,lyrics to dope for the average listener to comprehend..oh well,i’m not average!This is for the realest,only the realest.Enough said.

    40. If you’re into hip hop’s equivalent of junk food this is not for you. This is grown man rap, if you youngins make it past 35 you don’t have to stop listening to it. This album might help that lane, dude’s nice, kinda wish Doom or Nas were in it because they would fit in this.

    41. “NEW ILLUMINIATTI” these niggas put that right infront of our faces, but they think, hey these niggas are ignorant… they;ll never think a black man is in the NWO…

      WAKEUP… stop supporting these satanic fucks!!!!

    42. ILLUMINIATTI is fake fake fake spell it backwards n search it ur self n see what u get but drop one ‘t’ ittainimulli!!

    43. Y’all dumb af or young af if u think this album is gonna be sorry. I remember the days when all artists took 4-5 yrs for each album…that’s why the 90s had classics bc people took their time…no outlast cd in years…u think they are lazy and have poor work ethic? Naw it’s fickle fans that don’t have patients that are lazy and don’t understand work ethic.

    44. I wonder what some cats that hate on music like this are gonna listen to when they get up in age, even worse what their kids are gonna like.

    45. Jay elecronica hasn’t even got that kind of fan base, so hows he gonna feed these kids when the only got a taste for pure swine. Its aconspiracy to ruin an mc that was slowly taking the streets back!

    46. the tracks this guy put out for free 5 years ago are better than most of these rappers whole catalogs

    47. Jay Elect is the best pure lyricist in the game not named Andre, NaS, Eminem, Lupe. Name one person that’s better lyrically?

    48. And fucking Puff Daddy is on this shit WHY?

      Fuck this lazy 45 year old fraud Jay Electronica and his ‘illuminati’ bullshit.

    49. IT’S ABOUT DAMN TIME. As a huge fan of this mans work I’ve been waiting so long to hear some news besides him banging on of the Rothchilds daughters. (Which is very funny). Now im just hoping he sticks to what made the world follow him in the first place. This album is going to be a masterpiece.
