Hardknock TV recently caught up with Jay Electronica out West. He spoke on not appearing on Erykah Badu’s New Amerykah Part Two (Return of the Ankh), working with Nas, and his project with Decon. Don’t even ask about a release date for the latter.

jay elec and nas? together? #weaintneverseeingthatshit
Homie is definitely eccentric…and that’s a quality that a lot of the greats have…I just get the unfortunate feeling that we may never fully see his full potential realized…Act II has been “coming soon” for 3 years now…and that’s just a mixtape…if we ever do get an official album from him, the odds of him pulling a Lauryn Hill on us is far greater than I’m comfortable with…hope I’m wrong, cause dude has the potential to be something special…just can’t help but think he’s wasting a pristine opportunity though, the energy around Exhibit C was crazy…and it wasn’t capitalized on
I like Jay Elec a lot but he needs to come out with some new music. ive played Exhibit C hundreds of times now, I wanna hear new shit
WHATEVER…DUDE DON’T WANT IT…HE GETS CLOSE, THEN RUNS
ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT WHAT HE GOING TO DO OR WHAT’S IN THE WORKS
NAW…HE DOESN’T WANT SUCCESS…TOO MUCH PRESSURE
….AND HE’S DOWNGRADE FROM COMMON…WORD!!!
LOL… i always say that shit and ppl get real mad when i say it. Everyone upset cause this guy has no grind but Common raps circles around this guy, he’s good but come on now what has he really done that ppl are jumping off buildings?
New Orleans stand up!!
Man Jay will never drop a project and I have come to terms with that. He doesn’t want to be a recognized/mainstream emcee and that is the way it is. Shit Pac will drop two more albums before we ever get a snippett off Act II. Time to move on to J Cole as the next crowned legend.
Victory In My Clutches >>> Exhibit C
drop ACT II already for this summer
then we will wait for ya offishal LP
ACT III this christmas (or 2011)
strong will continue
peace jay e
Lol @ downgrade from Common.
He’s blown so many opportunities. At this point, if he’s not talking about a release date I don’t care. I don’t know if he’s lazy or scared, but he’s not even trying.
…STFU JAY E, Act II ain’t gunna be shit.
he hasnt blown any opportunities
he still has all that music stashed and it will have just a big of an impact whenever he releases it
New Orleans Stand Up! Louisiana Stand Up in this bitch, yaheardme!
Why are niggas talking like they know jay personally?
Only if ya know the truth..This cat is lowkey blackballed !exhibit c was forced to the masses and even tho we hiphop purist loved it.the powers that be said no! Wocka flocka is next! Hiphop is being controlled by some invisible monsters people.where’s andre 3stax @?u think that fool don’t got a bunch of flamers on the low?where’s common?I mean on constant rotation?where’s nas? Its a fuckin conspiracy against hiphop aka the dream of Dr king!let’s be real Jay stutteronica is just Saigon 2.0..

*CLASSIC*
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Niggaz like him piss me off to the fullest. He has a deal or at least has his foot in the door with one of the most used instrumentals since “A Milli” and he jus bullshits his potential away. There are millions of ppl jus waitin for the opportunity to get in the game and make somethin’ of themselves and he jus blows the shit off. I’ve got a fuckin’ terrabyte full of great music waitin to be heard and this nigga goes to the studio “once a month”. Fuck outta here. He reminds of that tall 6’5″ nigga that couldn’t play a lick of fuckin basketball or ANY sport at that, and wanted to be a fuckin accountant or somethin’ else, and here I am, 5′ fuckin’ 9″ play ball with all my heart knowin’ my chances of gettin in the league would be as slim as one of those top model bitches after I graduated from high school. smfh…
@ Ac@pella!
HE’S JUST A LAZY FUCKIN’ ARTIST!!!! A LAZY EMPLOYEE!!!! OR MAYBE HE DOIN’ THIS SHIT AS A PLOY TO MAKE NIGGAS FIEND FOR HIS SHIT!!!! EITHER WAY IT SUCKS!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
