The HYPE take
A boast-heavy summit between two rap superstars. Jay-Z and Kanye West turned an EP idea into a full-length album, with Frank Ocean and Beyoncé on vocals and the Neptunes, Swizz Beatz and the RZA helping behind the boards. It's the sound of ambition at full volume.
Why we like it
- Jay-Z and Kanye West as the Throne
- Nailed down at the Mercer Hotel in January 2011
- Vocals from Beyoncé, Frank Ocean and Elly Jackson
- Production help from the Neptunes and the RZA
- Started as an EP, finished as an album
Details
