 Jay-Z and R-Kelly only want to make a fast Dollar October 27, 2004
10 out of 11 found this review helpful
This CD is not worth buying. Rappers are getting away with making CD's that dont mean anything for a long time. It feels like the Rhymes were never drafted.
These is typical of Jay-Z.
This CD is the type of CD that you will listen to for a week, maybe a month and let someone barrow it and never ask for it again.
These guys have no care for who buys there cds as long as they make a dollar, they dont care what they say or do. The CD was rushed with no thought put into it.
 Scratching my head... October 27, 2004

After I finished listening to this album, I was thinking "That's it?" But that can be seen as a good thing. The fact that I was really into it and it cut off made me feel a little cheated and ten songs (one was a remix; that doesn't count) isn't appreciated, but whatever. Either way, I love R. Kelly and Jay-Z as a team. If you saw them September 30th at the Allstate Arena, all of you that don't may have changed your mind. It's the perfect mix of soul and hip-hop groove. The concert was phenomenal and I'm glad they put out a new cd. I still don't really understand Jay-Z's use of the word "b*tch", regardless of him being at the concert and saying he knows the difference between a "b*tch and a B", but in "Feelin you in Stereo", I was like "Okay, he does know the difference". I love his cockiness, just wish he'd cut that out. R. Kelly did the usual romancin' and sexin' routine (which I'm not mad at), but for some reason, I was more impressed with Jay-Z on this album and R. Kelly on the first one. Either way, I liked the album, just didn't love it like the first one (note: only a couple songs on here that I'd put on repeat, versus the first one I let run till the end). Hits on here: "Feelin' you in Stereo", Dougie Fresh's part at the end (WHY DIDN'T Y'ALL LET THAT SONG PLAY OUT LONGER? I LOVE TO HEAR DOUGIE FRESH BEATBOX) of "The Return (Remix)" and "Big Chips".
 At Least It's Better Than Their First One... November 3, 2004

You would think that two musical icons coming together for an album would be able to get their shhh together and release a good album, especially since they have done numerous collaborations and have already released an album together, but sadly this doesn't happen. They just seem to lack the chemistry when trying to hold an album together so instead of sounding like a formidable duo it's more of a R. Kelly featuring Jay-Z album. Meaning it's usually R. Kelly singing verses, hooks, and bridges and then Jigga drops a verse here and there. Even the beats are more on the R&B side. And R. Kelly doesn't really sing on this album he sorta does his little sing rap thang...not that it's bad it just gets tiring. Also the album is one dimensional...every song about money or women. But don't get it confused, they'll have a couple songs where they mesh perfectly such as The Return, Feelin You In Stereo, Pretty Girls, and Big Chips. But that does not warrant the price of the cd. Good songs but not must hears. The rest of the album is pretty much uninspired even though Jigga is his usual self, the songs are almost unlistenable. Twista saves the day on a throwaway track and after his verse there's nothing stopping you from fastforwarding. Overall it's decent but better on the bootleg tip rather than the spend money on it tip. 2.5 stars. Realize.

Once again,like Bush winning another term, this disappointed the hell out of me. Also like Bush winning again, this is no better than the first time around. I know, I know, this was recorded at the same time as the first but they coulda at least put some new verses or something kowing the last was wack. This is a insult to my listening pleasures! 2 songs that are salvagable are "Don't Let Me Die" and the "Get This Money Remix" with Twista. This is bad music that carries bad Karma. You see what happened with the tour. Jay and R. if you're reading this (or any of your people) do not do this again if it's gonna sound like this!

This album isn't really effective in many ways. You can tell from the opening track "THE RETURN" that it is going to be a cheesy album. Most of the arrangement lack something that is character of Jay-Z arrangements as well as R-Kelly arrangements. The one arrangement that sounds R.Kellyish is "FEELING YOU IN STEREO", and it is rather boring and prolonged compared to traditional R.Kelly. On that specific track Jay-Z just isn't necessary. "BIG CHIPS" and "PRETTY GIRLS" are the two best tracks, and "BIG CHIPS" lacks within its arrangements. This album just seems rushed and mediocre all over. 2.5 stars. Average.
