Just to show how Jay brainwashed you, what was his 3rd "classic" he mentions on BP?

[The_Third_Man]

Reasonable doubt and Blueprint are Jay-z classic albums.

vol.1 = 4/5
vol.2 = 2/5
vol.3 =3/5

 

[OHSNAP!]

RD 4.5/5
Vol1 4/5
Vol2 2.5/5
Vol3 3.5/5
BP 5/5

if I ever hear or see anyone calling Vol.2 a classic...that album was mediocre as hell

 

[prophecypro]

At the time prior to BP I guess he viewed RD, Vol 2 and Dynasty as his classics....

Probably cause of the high mic ratings they got

I'll never understand the hatred for Vol. 2... for it to be such a wack, garbage, terrible album, nobody can never name all the wack, garbage, terrible songs on it. That wasn't some album like Big Willie Style that just happened to have lots of big hits on it but you never caught nobody bumpin' it... that shyt pretty much solidified him across the board.

I'm not sayin' it was perfect, but there was a lot of records nikkas loved on there. I'd say there were more on Vol. 2 than there were on Vol. 3- Vol. 3 is packed with random shyts nobody ever mentions. 'Things U Do', 'S. Carter', 'Pop 4 Roc', 'Watch Me', 'NYMP'... that's damn near half the album and I don't think I've ever seen/heard any of those get much love. Whereas on Vol. 2, there was the 5 singles (obviously), then 'Money Cash Hoes', 'Reservoir Dogs', 'Ride or Die' (if for nothing else than the first verse), 'A Week Ago', 'Coming Of Age 2'... and then maybe three that are either take-or-leave...
