FIRST!
it was all right good messeage need a stronger message go hard all ready wtf.
Now after listening to it I definitely am feeling the track. Jay Electronica is one of my favorites right now just hearing a new track is out excites me. I think he’s one of the important missing pieces that was missing from the game. Just my opinion.
I see the promised land
Dang…This song is really nice. Jay Electronica may never be recognized as the nicest mainstream wise, but he definitely gotta spot in my top 3.
im glad people stop sleeping on my dude. hiphop fans rejoice! our savior is upon us.
My style is like a shot of Jack Daniels, a baby grand piano
lighten a hopkin smokin cigs strummin’ on the banjo.
The son of mans the son of a gun with hella ammo
Sheriffs shootin’ Bob Marley, John J Rambo.
Six sextillion, 19 million, the holy pyramids say we all a lost children.
Voodoo for the pilgrims who bring weapons and conceal them
they silence you with force and then Indoctrinate the children
Yo gaba gaba!, augmedina? Jabwa?, blow up your apartment if you don’t observe the Sabbath.
I look the devil in his eye and say abracadabra
then drown em in the mighty light his brain couldn’t fathom.
scrapin every day just like fight club, a thriller and a smooth criminal like Mike was
TALENTED ARTIST AND INTERESTING LYRICIST! BUT I MISS SOMETHING!
YOU CAN HATE ME NOW!
This is good…but hip hop savior…LOL!
@jayefan the lyric ends ‘we all allah’s children”

I see ya Tone! representing ATL on the track!
Check out Nicki Minaj interview last night http://www.freshandsavvy.com
I like his use of extended metaphors. But I dont understand why every song he makes takes so long to get started. I can do without the MLK part at the beginning, I heard that speech like a million times in HS thank you very much.
sounds eerily like guru at the beginning. song is dope cant wait for Act II. Props to YN on the JayElect article in Respect too very interesting read
But song is good though
“Don’t sell yourself, to fall in love…” Word to Slum Village. RIP J Dilla.
Dope.
@ Word
the exact things that annoy you about his song(s) is part of what i love.
who hates on hearing mlk talk about not fearing death merely days before his assassination? yo honestly that shit is tear-inducing for me. u don’t understand why? i’m sure he’s doing it deliberately even though he knows the short attention span nation will hate it.
he makes you sit through omg a minute of a jfk speech? omg. jesus how much of radio format songs can u take? blahblah. no point in me getting combative, though. i like it.
lol this aint even a guru beat….its a instrumental from the group home album

[…] Jay Electronica dropped a new joint earlier today. This would be the third track he’s leaked in less than month so I’m not complaining. “Jazzmatazz” is a tribute song to the legendary Guru (Gang Starr) who passed away earlier this year after a long bout with cancer. After the initial MLK speech, Jay summarizes Guru’s journey in hip-hop in two dope verses. Lyrically Jay is cross between a shaman and the Oracle from the “Matrix”. Its all very layered and forces you to pay attention which is always appreciated. Please check out the new song and let us know what you think. Shoutout to Rap Radar […]
Nice, keep it coming Jay! “The son of man’s a son of a gun with hella ammo”
This is an old Group Home instrumental. Nice job.
@Billy Rae Valentine
Relax my nigga its all good. You like that shit I don’t. I respect it, ain’t nuffin wrong with it it just ain’t my shit. Or do I have to like it? Lemme know bruh. I guess I should like it cuz its mlk giving a speech right?
I fucks wit it, it got that Victory in my Clutches feel to it, which is my favorite joint from him so far
ahmadinejabber……
Wack!!
dope track
belize is wack, what yall got,a fake black jew.
Yeah def same singer from Victory joint. Loved that hook.
sounds like The Beatles – Yesterday melody
It’s okay.
Why dis nigga always givin the peoples eyebrow.
Man, I love this brother’s music, Kingdom Music as he calls it. I hope he never compromises his art for that shit that Diddy was talking to him in Miami (hear Shiny Suit Theory). This is powerful, and when it drops I’m coppin a couple copies just like I do when Nas drops. Peace to Jay Electronica and keep doing what you been doing. Your train is running on schedule.
Peace 2 the God Jay Electronica
This = God Hop
jayefan…he said “Ahmedinajad would blow up your apartment” -As in the leader (tyrant) of Iran. LOL not whatever you typed. J elec is crazy man, his cultural references are pretty interesting. Smart guy
JaYeLecT Reign Supreme Over Everything.WE WANT A TRACK WITH NAS.I’ll even pay to hear it.
^^^^ I agree
……Not impressed. Son is getting all this shine off a minimal amount of product. Even his mixtape was mostly beats and interludes. He’s got like 3 SONGS!!! Exhibit A and C and The Ghost of Christopher Wallace. Dont get me wrong..He’s special….but he’s still on proving ground.
I am glad that he’s holding it down on the Black Culture side of things. Thanks for that Jay.
has usually music that makes alot of sense never gets airplay to much cause we are in the era of booty poppin and my jewerly is bigger then urs and i have more money then u…..and then is the story of y some music may never be heard……
[…] the beginning of Jay Electronica’s latest release “Jazzmatazz”, he utilized Martin Luther King Jr.’s final speech at the Mason Temple in Memphis, TN. Hours […]
i can do with mlk too only because dude is the only person, besides rosa parks, who we hear about throughout our forced bullshit education.
mainly cus mlk preached non violence and other groups that that werent so non-violent are obscured to fixed non existence
but i get what j.e. was going for with the symbolism just dont know if the uneducated are so aware…
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the lord
Boom bash dash I had to break I had to get away
Pack my bags
Headed for Greyhound it was a Monday
Time to start my mission
I felt that burning feeling in my soul
I had to listen
I had this reoccurring dream from the stage
In a suit with a fade I had set the game ablaze
And they threw me a parade
I stacked a little change and took my family out the caves
But I was trapped in the maze
Like a lab rat
And at the bottom of the barrel where they keep the crabs at
No Geico, no Aflac
Nothing to fall back on
But the streets where niggas cussed out the police
And sold their crack on
Better known as back home
Where they treat the Arabs and the Spanish and the Blacks wrong
There he go with that song
You may be tired but I spit what I’m inspired from the lord of the worlds
Cause the devil is a liar
Say say, I’ve seen the lightening flashing
Yes I did
And I’ve seen the thunder roll
But you can’t, you can’t keep me down for long
Cause I’m getting stronger
Cause I keep getting stonger
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Here we go
My style is like a shot of Jack Daniels
A baby grand piano
Lightnin Hopkins smoking cigs strumming on the banjo
The son of man’s a son of a gun with hella ammo
Sherrif shootin Bob Marley, John J. Rambo
Six sextillion, 19 million
The holy pyramids say we all a lost children
Voodoo for the pilgrims who bring weapons and conceal them
They silence you with force and then indoctrinate the children
Yo gabba gabba, agma dina jagua
Blow up your apartment if you don’t observe the Sabbath
I look the devil in his eye
And say abracadabra
Then drown him in a mighty light
His brain couldn’t fathom
Scrappin every day, just like Fight Club
A thrilla and a smooth criminal like Mike was
Say say, I’ve seen the lightening flashing
Yes I did
And I’ve seen the thunder roll
But you can’t, you can’t keep me down for long
Cause I’m getting stronger
Cause I keep getting stronger
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Yo Jay – you hit use with quality how about a little quantity?????
