Here’s a new track from Jay-z’s Roc Nation artist, Jay Electronica. Jay has often been referred to as Jay-z’s Protege. That being said Electronica was able to get a feature from his mentor. The track is called “Shiny Suits Theory“ and features both artists spitting bars about how far they’ve come and how much they’ve grown in life from the time they were born to now. In both of their bars, they also rap about a conversation with or rather a visit to their psychiatrist who assures them that they are not normal due to how much they’ve accomplished.
Quotable Lyrics:
Jay Electronica Bars
In the land before time
A land before altar boys, synagogues, and shrines
Man was in his prime ( Indeed homeboy’s a enlightened soul/ a warrior too )
The method is sublime you get blessed with every line
I’m in touch with every shrine from Japan to Oaxaca
….
I thought you said it’s the return of the black kings
Luxurious homes, fur coats and fat chains”
……
Jay-z Bars
In this manila envelope, the results of my insanity
Quack said I crossed the line between real life and fantasy
Can it be the same one on covers with Warren Buffett
Was ducking the undercovers, was warring with motherfuckers?
Went from warring to Warren, undercovers to covers
If you believe in that sort of luck your screws need adjusting
In the world of no justice and black ladies on the back of buses
I’m the immaculate conception of rapper-slash-hustlers
