Pac tried to tell y’all about that big lip Hawaiian Sophie fame fakkit but y’all didn’t want to listen :pacspit:

You New York nikkaz needed your rap king, goat, and here you have it :sas2:

This is what happens when you dikk ride and believe NY has to be the Mecca of rap and that no other rapper can hold the crown of G.O.A.T. and not be from NY.

Reminds me of that pathetic nikka funk doo doo breath master flex and his delusions of grander for New York rappers

:mjlol:

This was around the time he was riding the wave of Justin Timberlake's long-awaited album. Folks try to sweep the cringeworthy MCHG era under the rug. Need to be reminded of it every now and then

How was Jay wave riding when JT put him on his comeback single? Justin had been trying for years to get a Jay verse and he wanted Jay on "My Love", but Jay declined.

loved the album ... its good to show your versatility
the lady is pretty interesting too :yeshrug:

name a Jay-z album that wasnt based off an overall gimmick ... realistically blueprint?

Reasonable doubt - mafioso
The Volumes - volume 1 carried over from that, volume 2 - rapping over annie, I'm in the struggle and not mafioso don, volume 3 we saw a flashier Hov
Black album - I'm retiring
AG - tried to be a sound track
444 - these are my confessions
MCHG - 808s and art show
Dynasty - This is my group who I will destroy immediately after
Kingdom Come - I'm old and still cool
Linkin Park Album - I want ICPs fans now
Watch The Throne - Kanye wants credit for being a rapper now so I have to include him on it


love them all besides that Linkin Park bullshyt
:camby:

Relax.
1.) Kanye was much stronger on that album than Jay.
2.) That Kanye stimulus is the main reason Jay is still as relevant as he is.

What does that have to do with my original point? Jay is a wave rider. If it weren't for Ye keeping him musically relevant, all he would be is Beyonce's husband at this point. Ye is far more relevant that Jay, period. Ya'll overrate him. He's no rap godfather. All he does is passively aggressively rap about how much better he thinks he is than you.

That was probably Cyhi to be honest :mjgrin:


But yeah there's very little redeeming factors about this album. Even the track with Nas was weak. :to:
