Ep.72 - Watch The Throne: The Gift & The Curse

It has been nine years since Jay-Z & Kanye West did the collab album we could only dream of in years prior. Whilst some consider it a classic and some don't, it's undeniable that this is an important album for both artists. A fork in the road for both artists. We dive into the album, track by track, with WORLD EXCLUSIVE statistics from Ben.TIMESTAMPS:Weekly Music Roundup - (1:40)Topic Intro/Ben's Research Corner - (21:44)No Church In The Wild - (35:36)Lift Off - (40:44)Paris - (42:55)Otis - (46:07)Gotta Have It -(48:24)New Day - (52:38)That's My Bitch - (55:41)Welcome To The Jungle - (1:00:54)Who Gon Stop Me - (1:08:07)Murder To Excellence - (1:11:46)Made In America - (1:17:49)Why I Love You - (1:20:42)Final Thoughts - (1:25:05)Lighter Note - (1:33:01)Thanks for listening.
