CD is OUTSTANDING compared to the other shit they call albums this year.. There's only 2 songs i didn't like.

Are you haters even listening to the lyrics the man is dope.

And just for the record I never liked any of Jay-z's material before this album (exception to a few singles)

jay-z is washed up.

Rap does not have the longevity to last for decades because its not a mature style of music ,it's not that jayz is washed up......

he really is not that old but he has less and less reasons to rap about booty and what kinda wheels are on his car..

Jay peaked at the Black album //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Overall I would say thats his best album, Kingdom Come, BP, and BP2 kicked A$$ as well, He didnt really become main stream until Dynasty came out

This is truth

No way Reasonable Doubt is as great as people make it out to be...Its like when people talk about Pac and Biggie being the greatest of all time..Its just crazy..

SC3 was cool and Blueprint was Classic.. The rest of your list sounds like something a 30+ year old would say..//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

Nevertheless, I have only heard 1 Jay-Z album that I was disappointed in..He makes great music

 

[rtillaree 10+ year member]

well I am that older guy...reasonable doubt is definitely, without question #1...saying otherwise is something a 20 year old would say...people don't realize a lot of times, when you listen to an album like Reasonable Doubt, you hear the raw hungriness of an artist, and for a guy like Jay-Z that was gifted as well as hungry at that time, it made for an amazing product...He's not hungry now, he's still talented, but with these types of releases you get the sense that he has a quota to meet. So many albums now, the artist will just gets a few "top" beat makers, a few "top" cameos and boom the album almost sells itself, and this is made even easier with itunes and the online marketplace...The resulting product to me is a lot of track skipping...today's mainstream is not like 1995's mainstream, where you had to work much harder to earn your 5 mics or earn the listening rights of Hip-Hop heads by dropping a hot product...now, partially hot gets you top of the charts...

of course tastes vary from gen to gen, but for an artist that has crossed generations, the argument is relative...
