The Blueprint 2 20 years later...UNLEASH THE FLUTES!

[JustCKing]

It’s also the album were jay is at the peak of his powers

Lyrically, maybe. BP2 is the album where he was his most insecure. This wasn't the untouchable Jay Z that flicked competition off his shoulders. On BP2, he sounded defeated.

I’m talking lyrically.

I also forgot to mention that "Bonnie & Clyde" and "Excuse Me Miss" was completely opposite of the Jay that was releasing songs like "Big Pimpin", "Hey Papi", "Is That Your Chick" and "Who You Wit II" as singles. It was a little over a year and he was just saying "Get your independent ass out of here, question" on Missy's "One Minute Man remix", yet here he was with the lead singer of the group that made "Independent Woman" on his first single. Again, that was that damage control at work as it's like Jay putting "Excuse Me Miss" and "Bonnie & Clyde" out there to say "hey, ladies, I got love for ya'll too. Let me show you".

That Ja Rule influence but nikkas won’t give it up for the God.

 

[THE 101]

"you believe this shyt guru? I'm from the hood. Not the rap hood, the real hood"

It was a disappointment, but I've definitely, heard worse from him since. He released an album that same year which was worse.
