The Jigga Man Shawn Carter aka JayZ Official Thread...

[georgia boi]

He has two:

Reasonable Doubt

Blueprint- this one is classic in every sense of the word. The quality, impact and influence is there. Yes, it has filler, but there's not one album that doesn't.

Black Album- this one is debatable.

 

[midwestgangsta]

your a homo real talk

^^ok....................

 

[gman82]

Reasonable Doubt is his only true classic. Blueprint is a classic mainly for its production. It can be argued though. The black album and american gangster were really good albums but there not "classic." Maybe someones personal classics but not true hip hop classics. Those albums didn't help change the game, bring anything new to table, set a lyrically or production standard, ect. Reasonable doubt did and arguably the blueprint as well

 

[StillDreaming]

you said to me and imo so ill respect your opinion, but the fact of the matter is reasonable doubt is an undeniable classic, and blueprint i got the same opinion as you even tho i like it, but it will go down as a classic, i think those two are the only ones you can really give him

Don't get me wrong RD was not a bad album to me it just not his best IMO. Wat u see in RD I see in AG, which are both albums wit Jay doing what he does best which is Mafioso Coketalk over good instrumentals. The Black album is the most diverse album Jay ever released IMO.

 

[InMyLifeTime91]

to me ima say reasonable doubt, the blueprint, n american gangster r classics..

 

[goodfella2050]

Reasonable doubt classic

blueprint not a classic great production lazy lyrics and two album fillers hola hovito and jigga that nigga

Man i hated that fucking song lol that song honestly got me angry when i heard it on the blueprint for the first time lol

 

[south4life]

I say Three

"Reasonable Doubt", "Hard Knock Life: Volume 2" and "The Black Album"

 

[opiie562]

you think hola hovito was an album filler? i consider that just a dope fuckin track

co-sign...............IMO i think Kingdom Come was underrated..........AG was great to me, so was Black Album. Reasonable Doubt of course...

 

[musicology1985]

reasonable doubt

the blueprint

 

[nom de plume]

I'd say 3. RD and the Black Album for sure. I also think Bp is, but I'm willing to accept that maybe its the production that I like so much, either way production is part of the album and it is a classic

 

[midwestgangsta]

[sickbizzle]

Reasonable Doubt is his only true classic. and he's lucky we give him that, even though it's a classic it tends to be overrated.

 

[real_hh_rep]

I think Vol..1 is close to classic status. Personally, it's my favourite Jay album.

 

[Neva_Change]

One classic - Reasonable Doubt.

It is, man. I'm sorry u and others don't agree. I don't junction myself with ya opinions, just to fit in and sound rite.

 

[usmarin3]

It's pretty much common knowledge RD,BP, and BA are classics. SMH at niggas talking about the lyrics were weak on BP, by that logic Doggystyle and Chronic aint classic either.

 

[YamoleySensei]

Only one and that's Reasonable Doubt....Blueprint masquerades as a classic but in reality it isn't, the production is what carries that album and BP is far from flawless compared to his one true classic, RD. In all, he got one classic, couple of great albums, some mediocre ones and then the godawful...BP3, Encore and Dynasty
