What Jay Z tracks have the darkest/Grimiest production Like "Where I'm from"?

[C-Styles]

"Mind Right" Remix with Memph bleek

"Murda marcyville"

"Ignorant sh*t"

"Pray"

"Fallin"

the song with Push

"Minority Report"


just to name a few that get overlooked

 

[904]

Grimy beats never been his forte

This Life Forever

 

[Atsym Sknyfs]

@Crumple

the simple thing you should do and the easiest way to find "grimey" jay is to check all pre-blueprint stuff ... there are some after but not as much

 

[Jimmy the gent]

This Life Forever (I think it's listed as Black Gangsta). One of his most slept on tracks.

Jay told Ty-Fyfe this was his favourite track

 

[Scottie Drippin]

Jay told Ty-Fyfe this was his favourite track

Damn I can see why. Maybe his best hook ever too. He's talking that shyt on this record.

 

[Pressure]

Lyrical Excerise

Surprised no one said this earlier.

 

[Sinister]

Surprised no one said this earlier.

I did

Eminem produced moment of clarity.

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

 

[Sinister]

Thanks. Show you how - is that a Cam'ron or Jay track? I can't find the Jay Z one.

That's a bonus track on disc 2 for blueprint 2.

Cam has 2 freestyles over it
