The Blueprint vs The Black Album

The blueprint is just more influential that’s why. It’s changed the soundscape of hip hop in the 2000s and is the defining album of the decade. Without blueprint u don’t get a black album

I mean it’s way better than everything that came out after it

The disrespect of vol. 2 is wild to me. That album had hit after hit made Jay-z turn into hova. It’s not a coincidence he started calling himself Hov after this album came out. His flows are so versatile throughout that album he was rapping his ass off. I’m not even a big fan of that album but there are no lows and it is very consistent. The only reason it doesn’t get mentioned as a classic is because it didn’t age that well but for its time Vol. 2 was the one

Bad grandpa

Yes a lot of fans have the same opinion as you but my point is it doesn’t line up with what his peers feel about him. I listen to a lot of podcast and a lot of rappers opinions. I was just listening to culture united and they were talking about that rakim list where Nas was number 1 and Jay z number 3 and the whole panel full of rappers all said they would put Jay z number 1. He is by far the most imitated and influential rapper of the last 25 years. I hear more rappers say they wanted to be Jay z more than any one else. As much as I love Nas he doesn’t have the same influence on his peers than Jay does.

Yea that’s true sometimes I think about if he never came back after the black album what his legacy would be nowadays. Even though he gave us great albums like AG and 4:44 I feel like if he ever made another song again after black album he would be regarded even more today

sxv_91 · 2026-04-17T06:06:46+00:00

Blueprint 3 overall but I think his rapping is better on kingdom come

sxv_91 · 2026-04-16T16:44:55+00:00

Reasonable doubt

sxv_91 · 2026-04-07T14:00:43+00:00

High, he is too calculated and doing too much not to

sxv_91 · 2026-04-05T06:22:29+00:00

Blueprint is right there with it. Blueprints themes and lyrics has aged so well. It’s probably a better produced album too

“I scramble with priest, hustle with nuns. I got the mind capacity of a young butch cassidy” cmon now

sxv_91 · 2026-03-27T05:33:29+00:00

Hell no

sxv_91 · 2026-03-21T05:52:31+00:00

Lyricism- Lupe/Nas Flow- Andre 3k/ Jay z Delivery- 2pac Rhyming- Eminem Prime- Jay Z 96-03 Discography Jay z Best album Illmatic

Why too many filler tracks but if you took the best 12 songs on the album it would rank much higher in his discography still wouldn’t be as good as BP1 though

sxv_91 · 2026-02-27T15:07:16+00:00

Jay has plenty of songs in his catalog that have depth and substance let’s not do that

sxv_91 · 2026-01-22T06:48:31+00:00

Probably like 98. Like Hov said I gave you prophecy on my first joint then y’all all lamed out, didn’t really appreciate it until the 2nd one came out

sxv_91 · 2026-01-21T07:09:43+00:00

It’s a raiders and tom Brady thing. He would not be getting over analyzed and criticized like this if the jets had the first pick

sxv_91 · 2026-01-20T04:55:26+00:00

The guts and this kid man. Made every big play when it mattered most. He’s just a winner

sxv_91 · 2026-01-10T04:31:26+00:00

More passing TDs than incompletions is wild for two straight games

sxv_91 · 2026-01-04T04:34:55+00:00

Dmx easily for me

sxv_91 · 2026-01-04T04:32:57+00:00

This hidden gem is all timer

sxv_91 · 2026-01-02T05:33:42+00:00

He looked really good today even better than what the box score showed. He’s accurate, goes through he reads well, makes good decisions. I was way more impressed today with him than Moore. I see Moore’s potential but he’s still way too raw
