If Rick's involved I'll definitely check it out. Some of those beats sounded decent.

The beats sound pretty great, but I think it might be telling that the video gives only the vaguest sense of the lyrical content and delivery.

Telling of what, exactly? It's a Samsung commercial.

Cool to see jay actually adopting the no single/no video just drop an album approach that he wanted to do for the black album. Sucks he let kanye do it first tho.

Not sure what it being a Samsung commercial has to do with my comment, but I was suggesting that Jay may not do the beats justice.

Right, I'm sure the execs at Samsung are concerned that Jay-Z isn't lyrically lyrical enough and that showing him rapping could adversely impact downloads of their app.

Sorry, I thought this was a music board. I'll refrain from discussing the potential quality of the album and instead focus on Samsung's ingenuity in utilising branded content in this post-marketing world.

You're missing the point. Also, stop crying.

The idea of the Samsung marketing department sitting around a table shaking their heads and saying, "Damn, Jay came kind of wack on this one, we need to do some damage control," as if they'd even be able to tell the difference between good rapping and bad rapping, is a wildly borked-out interpretation of this Galaxy advertisement.
