Jay-Z svarar Lemonade Beyoncé á nýrri plötu

Bandaríski rapparinn Jay-Z gaf út nýja plötu á streymisveitu sinni Tidal í nótt sem kallast 4:44. Síðan hún kom út hafa fjölmiðlar vestanhafs keppst við að rýna í texta plötunnar en margir telja að á plötunni sé Jay-Z að svara eiginkonu sinni, Beyoncé, sem í apríl í fyrra gaf út plötuna Lemonade.

Á þeirri plötu söng Beyoncé um framhjáhald eiginmannsins og aðra erfiðleika í sambandinu og nú er líkt og Jay-Z sé að biðjast afsökunar á hegðun sinni, að minnsta ef marka má textabrot sem vefsíðan Vulture hefur tekið saman, annars vegar af Lemonade og hins vegar af 4:44.

Textabrotin sem Vulture tók saman má sjá hér fyrir neðan en í þeim er meðal annars að finna vísun í Solange Knowles, systur Beyoncé, og tónlistarmanninn Eric Benét sem var giftur leikkonunni Halle Berry.  

“Hold Up”: “Never had the baddest woman in the game up in your sheets”

“Kill Jay Z”: “You almost went Eric Benét / Let the baddest girl in the world get away”

“Pray You Catch Me”: “You can taste the dishonesty / It’s all over your breath as you pass it off so cavalier”

“Kill JAY-Z”: “You egged Solange on / Knowin’ all along, all you had to say you was wrong”

“Sorry”: He always got them fucking excuses / I pray to the Lord you reveal what his truth is / I left a note in the hallway / By the time you read it, I’ll be far away”

“4:44”: “I suck at love, I think I need a do-over / I will be emotionally available if I invited you over / I stew over what if you over my shit?”

“Sorry”: “Me and my baby, we gon’ be alright / We gon’ live a good life”

“4:44”: “And if my children knew, I don’t even know what I would do / If they ain’t look at me the same / I would prolly die with all the shame”

“Forward”: “Go back to your sleep in your favorite spot just next to me”

“4:44”: “And all this ratchet shit and we more expansive not / Meant to cry and die alone in these mansions / Or sleep with our back turned”

“Sorry”: “He only want me when I’m not there / He better call Becky with the good hair”

“Family Feud”: “Yeah, I’ll fuck up a good thing if you let me / Let me alone Becky!”

“Sorry”: “Now you want to say you’re sorry / Now you want to call me crying”

“4:44”: “We talked for hours when you were on tour / Please pick up the phone, pick up the phone”
