Not his club/jiggy production. Anything close to the Daringer Griselda sound, which I doubt. I'm trying to make a grimy Jay Z playlist.

Tracks like
Where I'm from
Moment of Clarity

Or even just dope hip hop production like
Hard knock life

Eminem produced moment of clarity. :win:

In terms of the exact sound you're talking about I don't think Jay has much of that , As far as hard sounding beats.. it's hard to find that for Jay. He's not Mobb Deep or Beanie Sigel or even 50 Cent

Streets is watching
So ghetto
Come and get me
Takeover
Breathe easy/meet the parents (damn near the same beat for both songs)
Justify my thug...

fukk this is hard

I know ppl are saying he doesn't have much - but if we look he should have at least 20 tracks like this.

Money, cash, hoes - I never liked that track.

But once I was meeting a friend in the projects 10 years after that track came out. Crackheads in the lobby and living in the building. Dealers, goons.

Someone was playing it and all of a sudden it became a grimy track to me cause of the place I was in. The piano roll sounded so lazy and ghetto - but innovative, different and dope. So that joint may get added.
