Jay Z -The Blueprint 2 The Gift & The Curse Turns 15 Years Old Today...Hit Or Miss?

[Broddie]

BET always aired this commercial that fall

 

[MR.CJ]

Miss

 

[blue_london]

If it was a single disk straight classic

 

[trendsetta1030]

Simple

trash

 

[5 Grand]

trash

Don't you think calling it "trash" is unwarranted?

 

[bkkbully]

Waaaaaay too many good songs that i like to be considered a miss. Never understood the hate for this album, it had everything. Club bangers, smooth joints, hustler music, shit talking music, and introspective music. I got so much pussy with Excuse Me Miss being played in the background. Out of 25 tracks (including the bonus ones), I rock with about 18 - 20 of them. Thats a pretty solid album in my book

 

[Lou Cypher]

Had some good songs, but mostly 2 discs of bullshit. Not a worthy sequel to his Classic Blueprint album.

Better than BP3 though.

 

[90's Era]

Only thing this album missed was being a classic dbl disc..which of course its not..but there is way more than enough dope shit on it to be a good to very good album..

I think Jay tried to fill every box on the stat sheet..but in doing so had a lot of turnovers as well.

side note..

Meet the parents is one of the g.o.a.t story tracks ever..

 

[KneeGro_DuperMan]

Out of 25 joints i can bump 17 today. Same with Street's Disciple (17/24 not counting the intro). They ain't classics but they're pretty damn good.

 

[90's Era]

Super miss. Good amount of dope songs tho.

wouldn't a SUPER MISS have a minimal amount of good songs ..and really no DOPE songs on it..

Think you swinging from your heels with that comment homie..

 

[buttuh_b]

Pac aint even like him and he did Me & My Girlfriend haaaaaahaaaaa

 

[stackmaster 313]

If he would got killed after making this it would be the best album ever. I banged this shit religiously it's a criminally underated album need to give it a relisten. Just tough to follow up BP with it think that's why it didn't age as good.

 

[GetoBoy]

If I can't rock with two thirds of a album I'll consider that a hit

 

[wolfman91]

I hate this album but the watcher 2 is one of the best songs ever. I accidentally used the dirty version as my pro wrestling Theme song and jay ways dropping the N word left and right but I just went with it

 

[unspoken_respect]

The middle

 

[usmarin3]

Grammy Family freestyle and Get shit off should of made the album. That could of replaced that god awful Sean Paul and 2 Many Hoes.

 

[buttuh_b]

The Bounce gotta be worst Kanye track ever

 

[KNiGHTS]

Contained some of his best work that got drowned out in that Charles Hamilton "Don't know what to cut" vein.

Meet the Parents is so slept on I hate all you sleep muhfuckas.

 

[THE_R_]

The Bounce gotta be worst Kanye track ever

LOOKING BACK...I WOULD'VE NEVER GUESSED HE'D DO A WHOLE ALBUM WITH THE NIGGA WHO GOT NO CREDIT ON THE BOUNCE.
