Big Sean is annoying and the hook is obnoxious. But everybody knows Jay and Ye is the bomb. "Blaim it on the Pigment" aww damn. Kanye is so ridiculously black. It does feel like one of their money making albums though, the beat is ehh. It doesn't touch anything on Watch the Throne. But honestly, few things can.

"what niggas did in paris got them hagin off the eiffel" was the stand out line of kanye's for me, dope call back to watch the throne and also a very kanye thing to say.

hook is sort of annoying though. but i really like the beat and especially how kanye's flow sort of rolled with it. all in all this is the best new song i've heard in a long time.

There were a whole bunch of standouts in Kanye's verse, I think there was one about him talking to some white guy talking about the new Maybach they both had and him talking about white people saving their money and his probably being a rental, I thought it was amusing.
I dunno, I've heard a song or two of his, Tyler was into him for a bit when I rode with him to school last summer, and he has his moments, but this song wasn't one of them particularly, and when you hear it directly contrast with Kanye and Jay Z, it just doesn't measure up.
I guess I'm always just expecting something Watch the Throne caliber, it was OK, but it didn't particularly hook me in the way even other lesser Kanye beats have, Kanye beats have a very high standard. And if your in the Hip Hop genre in the last year, the Kanye/Jay Z super group is the gold standard.
This teamup has been like, one of the best things to happen in Hip Hop in a long time, because the two of them by themselves are amazing, they have great chemisty together, you could really see them bein niggas wit each other outside of hip hop, they just seem like they would be, and they both have very broad musical interests outside of hip hop, they both listen to like, everything, they are genuine musicians, They also have singular skill sets that blend really well, they both are incredible lyricists in their own way, combined with Kanye's beat making and production skills, and Jay's business empire, it's a match made in heaven.
