He should have retired in 2004 like he said he would with maybe a single ("Empire State of Mind") or concept album (
American Gangster) here and there. The only thing that is motivating him to make music is the money aspect. Most of his work post-
Black Album has been hollow as ****, and his lyrical skills have taken a HUGE dive. I still don't get why he is still so relevant. It's probably those radio hits with pop singers on them or something.
Life Is Good is just the type of album a 15/20-year vet should be releasing, not
Magna Carta Holy Fail.
