We have to start with something that everybody's been wondering about.
So the game did a full track-by-track review.
And of course, we got to get into his entire breakdown because you know that's very important to the...
Oh, no, man, I was talking. One in the world?
Let's see what Jaws' thoughts are on this tragedy.
Who gets a fuck with J-Roo things at a time like this, nigga?
This is ridiculous.
What?
But it's not even J-Roo, man.
Shepard.
All right, never mind.
I guess y'all don't want to hear the games.
You know, Lenthe.
down of jaco's album anyways um let's let's get into jamey's top performing tracks off of the fall off right
so of course we have the best performing track objectively speaking off of the fall off because you know
your boy you know takes his job seriously you know i do this for a living not too crazy so when it comes to
um future chart analytics slated for february 24th uh 21st safe to say the best performing track
objectively speaking as of right now and it's not even close honestly yeah it's not even close
is 2-6, which is currently slated to be the 16th most played track in the world.
But of course, that's not it, ladies and gentlemen, as he has a, you know, we have a lot more to go through.
So safety is currently the second best performing track off of the fall off,
slated to be the 30th most played track.
Poor thing is the third slated to be the 32nd most played track.
Who T.F. is you.
That's the fourth most popular track off of the album,
slated to be the 34th overall
Runner Train is the fifth most popular track off the falloff
Slated to be the 35th most played track in the world
Buntz Road Blues
Which you know a lot of people is talking about that track
And let's just say
I don't know if y'all really appreciating the type of storytelling
That's happening throughout this body of work
But anyways let's get back to it
So Bunce Road Blues is currently the sixth most played track
Off of that album 30 slated to be the 37th most played track in the world
legacy is the seventh most played track off of the fall off slated to be the 38th most played track in the world and then of course
um let me see we have the let out you know hold on now i know that i know that ain't who i think it is hold up germane fans
hold them now i know that ain't who i think it is now you know i was listening to this body of work i was
thinking it was immaculate from the beginning this was the type of album where i just knew i would need
multiple listens to get a full grasp because of the lyrical exercise that was being displayed
All right, my fault, enough glaze.
But y'all get the point, right?
The let out.
The let out was one of those interesting tracks
where everybody and their mama
kept saying, why in the world
would Jermaine make a track like this?
But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state
of hip-hop, like, what's going on?
And now I got a car cap, because you're all the type of people
to hate Drake and still make with the most stream rapper
in the world. You know what I'm saying?
Is it okay? I got my dope on me?
As 24 tracks off of this fall off album, really 23
if you, you know, don't take the intro
because technically it's not a song.
So 23 tracks technically off of this album.
And then out of those 23 tracks,
guess what was the eighth most played track in the world?
The let out.
You guys.
See, that's the problem.
That should go to show that never let somebody who just listened to a two-hour body of work for 10 minutes give their review.
But then, you know what I'm saying?
I was like, 10, look at the state of hip-hop.
Like, what's going on?
Because I don't know if y'all noticed, but I basically took,
I think it was a day or two to get to the actual album as far as my actual review.
You know, so, yeah, do have the information which you will.
Or as you will.
So with that being said, the let out is the eighth most played track off of the fall off,
slated to be the 49th most played track overall.
And of course, we have Drum and Bay slated to be the ninth most played track.
51st most played track overall.
29 intro slated to be the 10th most played track off of the falloff.
54th overall.
Care Rock, where in the world?

I don't think all these new tracks, right?

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, okay, eleven, twelve, there we go.
Yep, thirteen, thirteen, sixteen, seventeen, seventeen, seventeen, eighteen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty, okay, twenty,
we had twenty, all right, uh, twenty one.
So I may have messed up somewhere, but you know, he basically has twenty one tracks on the charts currently.
we're not currently
but you know as far as future
trial analytics you know as far as
um
looking at these small letters you know
I'm 26 going on 80 so I was doing
a lot right here especially with the glasses
you know what I'm saying if y'all laughing
y'all stop dead
oh need to do all right so
obviously all
well majority of the tracks
is making it to the top 100
or slated to make the top 100
when February 21st comes around
because once again those are future
analytics so if you look at the charts right now
it won't be on there i'm just talking about what is currently performing the best off of his
album and i wanted to do that for the germane fans out there that uh immensely have dived into
this album or dove into this album so they probably wanted to know uh what's the best
what's the better performing tracks off of the album so when it comes to germane i do believe two
six is a surprise to me i just thought that everybody in their mama was bumping not two six
who's the other one um yeah who t f is you now i was very surprised to
see that's the fourth most played track off of the album because i thought that was going to be number
one i'm not mad at being number four i mean you're still on the chart so i mean you know he's doing
phenomenal right safe to say um or needless to say but when you look at the actual album
personally my favorites you know aside from the 39 intro because i'm not going to lie to you
listening to this album uh time and time again as far as um trying to resonate or just
deeply understand the lyrical content the second half of the second half of the
of 39 intro is some of the best rapping I've ever heard in my life.
But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, Tim, let's get a hip-hop. Like, what's going on?
I know that Jermaine was in the studio just going crazy after he laid that verse for the second
half of 39 intro because technically, I think that was like the first rap verse because
39 intro starts with some type of melody. He's like singing throughout that first half of it.
And then the gunshot happens and then that is when one of the best verses of all time comes on.
We're not the best verse of all time, but one of the best flows of all time.
It's too early to say best verse.
But from a storytelling aspect, my top three as when a, not storytelling,
from overall, let's just do overall.
Because, you know, if you put too many disclaimers, it's going to be, you know,
too much for people to follow.
So my top three overall is definitely 39 intro.
I think that track is phenomenal.
Life sentence.
Regarding your significant other as a prison sentence.
I ain't gonna lie to you.
I don't know why, but it actually worked for me.
But then, you know what I'm saying?
I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop.
Like, what's going on?
All right, so 39 intro, life sentence.
And then if I was to choose a third.
I don't know.
If I was to choose a third.
I fairly liked the storytelling on this album.
So I would either have to say I love her again or safety.
Actually, I'll probably go safety.
Safety is a heater.
Like, I think safety is Prime J. Cole.
He really made a story going on an eight mile M&M type beat, but in reverse, you know, because at the end, the man didn't, you know, basically it was a letter to Jermaine.
He wasn't getting mad every single verse.
He was actually just informing him.
He was like, hey, man, you can pull up if you want to.
And then guess what?
At the end of the track, he got in his car.
And I assume, I don't know, you know, I ain't got the spark notes.
Shout to Cam Newton.
I ain't got the spark notes in front of me.
But I assume he was actually going to the funeral that the person was talking about in safety.
That's what I got out of him getting into the car.
At the end of the track, I would like to see like a music video actually having that purse.
If it's, you know, I just assume Jermaine talking about real world, real world events.
Because, of course, you look at Quickstop.
I'm thinking to myself, ain't a way you can make that.
My boy, they ain't luxurious at all.
They ain't glamorous.
You know what I'm saying?
There ain't something that you.
All right, basically.
That's a type of story where you'd be like, you know what, that's prime germane material.
I'm pretty sure nobody thought Jermain was capping.
when he made quick stop.
So a lot of these storytelling tracks,
I just assume it's real life.
So I want to see the real person from safety.
You know, everybody out here saying,
who is Jermaine talking about on poor thing?
I want to know who in the world
was writing him that letter on safety.
But then, you know what I'm saying?
I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop.
Like, what's going on?
That means I can keep going on and on and on and on.
Shepherd.
All right.
Basically, I could very elongate this.
segment simply this is a masterpiece from a storytelling aspect having your first album after the beef
be a project of immaculate storytelling masterclass lyricism i think that's the best way to combat
anybody that has to say anything because you're not going at anybody trying to take their heads
off you're basically talking about Carolina you're talking about your legacy you're talking about where
you're from and at the end of the day that's one of the things that nobody can ever take away from
you is your love from your hometown i think people who blow up and switch on the hometown they need
be looked at in the light but as far as people who couldn't blow up and still go back to the hometown
and spread the love i know y'all y'all going to bring them nipsy hustle and all this crazy stuff but
it's really a good thing to blow up and go back to your hometown i think what jermaine did on the fall off
is one of the greatest projects that he's ever put out.
And as a Jermaine, well, some of me say I'm a Jermaine Hater,
I think that's a huge accomplishment,
especially getting people like me who I'm not looking to hate it,
but I already know what I'm getting into,
and he still blew me away. Pause.
So anyways, I can keep going on and on about this album.
After the Mickey reading, because you already know,
I recounted this like the votes in the U.S.,
and I feel like I still got one wrong,
but it was like 21 to 22 tracks off of the album
that's charting in the top of 100, where it's slated to chart.
Any of these could slide like one or two slots, but for the most part, these objective future
analytics is definitely on the nose as far as it's the same people who gives the first
week projections.
So, yeah, shout out once again.
I don't know as far as going over the tracks, you know, talking about the actual album one
more time.
291,000 first week, definitely going number one.
115,000 first week as far as units, or not units, as far as physical copies.

yeah honda civic one in the world this man be doing the most homeless stuff the most homeless
activities ever uh so this man was in his uh honda civic um riding around selling cdhs for a dollar
and he just sold 291 000 first week shout out to that man being the most humble rapper i've
ever seen in life so that being said click my link sharing my
bio let me know one of my social medias what do you think about germane aka j cole not only
putting more respect on lyricists as far as how to immaculate how to have an immaculate
storytelling outlook but also as far as keeping the wind going for hip hop as far as going number
