I wrote a full review of 4:44 that you can find at http://www.thelastwordbender.com/blog/2017/7/17/why-jay-z-matters-a-444-review-career-reflection Excerpt: "4:44 The Blueprint 4. Vol 4… A New Life for S. Carter. Jay-Z’s 4th classic. Not a return to form, but an evolution. Not an album to prove he's still got it, but an album to reveal new aspects of one of the greatest American literary figures of the last three decades. Jay-Z’s third act magnum opus. 21+ years in the game brought S. Carter full circle to reveal the fully formed, conscious revolutionary that has woven himself through Jay-Z’s lyrics, since he first assertively noted, “All us Blacks got is sports and entertainment, until we even…” on “Can’t Knock the Hustle,” the very first track on Jay’s debut classic." #LinkInTheBio #HipHop #Music #Review #444 #JayZ #Beyonce #Lemonade
