”Good art doesn’t always breed contemplative silence. Take Watch the Throne, on which two grandiose motherfuckers explore the theme of grandiose-motherfuckerdom from vastly different perspectives, stacking dubstep on top of opera on top of Otis Redding, triumphalism on top of sorrow on top of more triumphalism, striving for a sound as vast and strange as the world they’ve come to inhabit. It’s glorious and obnoxious and pointedly self-aware, and it was more fun to argue about than any hip-hop record since, I don’t know, Kanye West’s 808s & Heartbreak or Jay-Z’s widely jeered Kingdom Come.
