Happy Birthday to Jay-Z's The Black Album

[mdot]

the album just doenst stand the test of time to me and imma huge jayz fan.

december 4th

encore

what more can i say

PSA

allure

my first song

lucifer are classics

everything after that in 2013 i just dont feel it the way i did in 2003

Says seven of the 13 songs are classic but the album doesn't stand the test of time

But if he felt the rest of the songs were weak or not that good maybe he can't call it classic.

There's plenty of albums with 6-7 really dope songs and the rest of the album is whatever. I'm not saying that's the case with the Black Album. I love that album. But it's a possible stance to take.

 

[mryounggun]

2nd best Jay album to me.

 

[airspeeze23]

Damn near if not Classic IMO..... RD>BP>TBA>V1>AG>Dynasty>V2>V3>MCHG>BP2>BP3>KC

 

[bull6599]

Depending on the day this album is #2 behind RD (tied w/ BP). Def a classic IMO.

 

[MR.CJ]

clasic album

[victory_kid]

This image right here had the internet going nuts back then, still a classic album imo tho.

 

[Kalecrunch]

I like the variety of the lp

Not a lot of similar songs but a lot of unique ones.

 

[Bussy_Getta]

why the fuck would I wish happy birthday to a fucking cd god yall niggas need lives forreal shawties

 

[The_Man]

good album not a classic to me but i can see why some people consider it to be, i think its one of them albums i played way too much when it came out now im sick of it.

 

[DarthRozay]

Remember this dropping the same day with Beg For Mercy. Cop both them joints but The Black Album got more rotation from me than Beg For Mercy. Not one skipable track on here, I even fucks with "Change Clothes", which was the first single for the album I think. "PSA" is hands down one my favorite Hov tracks. Just Blaze did his thing on that beat

 

[StoneColdMikey]

Fav album from hov

 

[Disciplined InSight]

3rd favorite JayZ album next to Reasonable Doubt and The Blueprint.

 

[Ranxx]

The allure of breaking the law

Was always too much for me to ever ignore

One of my favorite Hov quotables right there

 

[5 Grand]

I own the "Encore/Dirt off your Shoulder" 12"

That's gotta be one of Jay's best singles. Right up there with the "Ain't No Nigga/Dead Presidents" 12"

 

[DMTxTHC]

Allow me to re-introduce myself, my name is Hov! Oh!

H-to-the-O-V

I used to move snowflakes by the O-Z

I guess even back then you can call me

CEO of the R-O-C, Hov'!

 

[Kalecrunch]

so just let me introduce myself My name is Humpty, pronounced with a Umpty

9th Wonder talkin bout meetin Jay Z for Threats

Just found out this line had another meaning

Grown man I put hands on you

I dig a hole in the desert, they build The Sands on you

Lay out blueprint plans on you

We Rat Pack niggaz, let Sam tap dance on you

Then, I Sinatra shot ya God damn you

Jay z's bodyguard name was Sam hahahaha dude was too ill. Yuck.

 

[Pr0n]

My favourite Hov album to be honest. He was really spittin

What more can I say?
