My Favorite Song Is Niggas In Paris because it shows prominent minority figures taking over music entirely and the world.
October 24th, 2011 at 12:28 pm
New Day, cause it’s all about Jay and Ye’s troubled past and how they don’t want that to happen to their future offspring

Who Gon Stop Me – This is my favorite beacause the duo infused hip-hop with dubstep. Their creativity is off the charts.
October 24th, 2011 at 12:33 pm
Murder to Excellence – Most underrated song on the album. The seamless transition between beats and subject matter from hopeless to hopeful is something you dont see too often in music these days. No one is rapping about real issues and trying to do something about them like these guys did on this album.

Murder For Excellence – Definitely reminds me of true hip-hop that makes a strong statement and is a voice for people who can’t be heard.

First of all i love every song on wtt so its very hard for me to choose but i got to pick murder to excellence .. it has extraordinary production like most of the songs on wtt and its issues about black on black crime and black excellence really struck a chord with me especially the line when yeezy say whats the life expectancy for black guys ? great question and i would love if i could get tickets on november 8th and 9th in NEW YORK CITY i never been to a concert before it would be awesome if i could see them perform live and i promise one day ill be performing with them in the future too !

“Murder to Excellence” definitely because I love how both Kanye and Jay reflect on how the black on black murder rate is rising and that due to this there is less black successful people because the number of people dying senselessly could have potentially been something great.

Welcome to the jungle
life is a jungle, you gotta fight to not to get eaten alive by everyday ups and downs.. Jay & Yay did it and so will I

New Day would be my favorite because it shows the emotion of not having children. Very Deep.
October 24th, 2011 at 12:37 pm
My favorite song from Watch The Throne is “No Church In The Wild.” The beat is incredible, Frank Ocean’s vocals give the chills upon every listen, and Kanye’s opening line is one of the best of the album!

N-ggas in Paris is my Favorite Song on Watch the Throne because its provocative and it mentions one of my favorite places in the world!

Murder to Excellence – the Beat is incredibly raw, the truthfulness on the subject of Black history, Black culture, and Black Power is hard hitting and stays with you long after the song finishes. The way the song switches up for different matter is greatness too.

New York, NY -Madison Square Garden November 7th
Why I Love You So- Jay-Z intelligently described all that he’s done for his “Roc-A-Fella” peers throughout their careers. Kanye chiming in shows the road they could have taken but didn’t. GENIUS!
October 24th, 2011 at 1:01 pm
Gotta Have It- kanye goes off and the way kanye and jay go back and forth talking about their money and power. this song makes me want to bump this.. maybacks on backs on backs

My favorite song would have to be “No Church in the Wild” just for the fact of how real the song title is. There’s no innocence in the real world. Violence, religious tension and other evils are always prevalent whether it’s here at home or in other countries. There really is No Church in the Wild.

@Ash, there is no song titled “Black Excellence.” There is a song titled “Murder to Excellence.” If you wanted to divide the song into two songs because of the change in beat and overall change in purpose of rapping there would be a song titled “Murder” and the second “Excellence.”

I love the concept of how Jay/Kanye talk about religion, the rowdy yet awesome beat produced by 88-Keys, and Frank Ocean’s hook is just off the “hook,” if you get what I mean.

“New Day” is my favorite song. I love it because it’s a deep song & they’re both sharing their emotions about what they want in life for their “future” son. And the sample from Nina Simone makes it even better.
October 24th, 2011 at 5:37 pm
My Favorite song is “Lift Off” because it’s inspiring to other Dreamers, and Go getters, it makes me feel like anything is possible. Being a songwriter/musician the song motivates me to work harder & “Take it to the stars”
October 24th, 2011 at 5:44 pm
“Why I Love You” because Yeezy and Hova are speaking the truth. The closest ones to you can be the ones who stab you in the back.
October 24th, 2011 at 5:45 pm
Niggas in Paris is my favorite track on this album. Kanye came in so hard on this beat and absolutely tore it into pieces and the dialogue from Will Ferrell and Jon Heder was absolutely hilarious. This song captures one of Kanye’s greatest lyrical moments! KANYE IS KING!
October 24th, 2011 at 5:47 pm
“Ni**as In Paris” is my favorite song because they both bring so much energy towards the record. They both went in and did their thang.

“Made In America” because it speaks of how Kanye and Jay-Z grew into the artists they are in a world full of racism. As a teenager who is trying to get into the music industry, it is inspiring to hear two of the greatest artists tell their listeners their stories.

My favorite song from Jay and Mr.West on watch the throne album is “niggas in Paris”. Why i choose this incredible song is the beat amazing and the rhythm just hard head banging sound gets you ready for anything. The song complements their freestyle by bouncing off creative fun playful ideas during the song to give it a different sound you have never heard. Kanye adds humor into the song when he says “Bougie girl, grab her hand F**k ol girl she don’t wanna dance
Excuse my French but I’m in France (I’m just sayin)
Prince William’s ain’t do it right if you ask me
Cause if I was him I would have married Kate and Ashley”. That one of my favorite quote in the song. I would be grateful to witness G.O.O.D music front of my big bright brown eyes to have the experience of watching them live in a huge crowd full of screaming fans hearing my song “niggas in Paris” would be awesome!:D Throw your dimaond in the air!Peace xo

“Otis” by far. The song works well for today’s ADD music market- a lead single under 3 minutes with the 2 biggest hip-hop stars on earth. It’s catchy without a chorus, a genius sample moment c/o Kanye’s amazing ear for finding an old song that can still sound hot today. A lot of the songs on this buckled under the weight of the production, but this track really gets it right. Best track from both of these guys in a while. The line about “other other benz” is everything.

“New Day”
When I first heard this song, I was blown away. That Nina Simone sample filtered through auto-tune gave me chills. I had no idea what the song was going to be about, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was cool to hear Jay-Z and Kanye talking about their future children and a welcome change of pace in the album. I was a fan of both of them before, but this song really impressed me and I would love to see and hear it performed live.

NYC! “Otis” provides a look into Jay and Kanye’s musical heritage and pays homage to one of the greatest singers of all time. Its rhythmic cadences perfectly blend hip-hop with classic soul to show what this genre is all about: mixing the old and the new.

Murder to Excellence
Murder to Excellence is often overlooked, but in my opinion it is the best song on the album. Amazing beat, amazing lyrics, and the rappers stay on topic. This song is probably most relevant to what is going on in today’s society. Kanye and Jay-Z accomplished what they were setting out to do with it.
October 25th, 2011 at 9:57 am

Lift Off, because it sends a positive message, like I can do anything, I’m a go far just watch!
October 25th, 2011 at 12:33 pm
“No Church in the Wild”
This song is a true master piece to me, a perfect openning that paints the picture of Jay and Kanye’s world: the wild. The manner in which The Throne exposes religion to its listeners is eye-opening because both Kanye and Jay’s life experiences, although different, have led them to understand the concept of religion in a very unique way. Kanye’s church is his relationship with women, and Jay’s difficult past has forced him to see the lie-filled, ugly side of religion.
The beat is extremely cold which contrasts beautifully with Frank’s voice as his chorus asks an ironic yet genuis question “…will he make it out alive?” Of course not, everyone dies.
I could write an essay on this song, which is why it’s my favorite one from this classic album.
