It dawned on me that the albums anniversary is tomorrow and I started listening to it, and every time I do I pose myself this question. As much as I "Stan" for this guy, I understand the fact that one of his albums has to be deemed the worst and I honestly think its this one.

The funniest thing about it, is that when it dropped there was no Jay Z album I listened to more, it was basically round the clock with this thing, I may have played the title track like 500 times by mid December. It has a lot of good songs on it IMO, in fact Hollywood and Momma I Made It are the only two songs I dont really mess with, but it doesnt have the strength his other albums have. I still think its a good album, but definitely the worst Jay Z album.

Thoughts? If you think its another album I would love to hear why.

Definitely man..that album was a huge disappointment. I remember when I first got the CD and how amazing that intro was. Then each song after that was a let down with the exception of Beach Chair and probably one or two other songs. Remember Dig a Hole?! That **** was awful man.

As for American Gangster....Hell no. That was a great album; one of that years best.
 
:smh: at knowing the anniversary for this ****** album

Only listen to The Prelude off this now

44 Fours should have been a bonus track on regular cds instead of just being on the limited vinyl version
 
All jays albums are garbage, trash, basura, bunz................except the blueprint, 3/4ths of the black album a 1 song on the dynasty(the intro of course)
Jay a snake
And a bum

 ...while I'll agree, Magna Carter wasn't bad, the Black Album was solid. Reasonable Doubt is decent.

black album but its a toss up between the gift and the curse.
 
Beach chair was a solid song... i always wonder if blue ivy was a test tube baby to make sure jay had a girl because of this song

American Gangster was hard to me when it dropped but it took me a couple years to really appreciate it

Sweet, American Dreamin, Say Hello, Party life , & Success are in his top 20 songs

I don't think it's trash, it was just underwhelming. Can't front on a couple tracks though, especially the Prelude, one of the greatest intros I've ever heard (conveniently behind the Stillmatic Intro), and also Lost Ones, Dig A Hole, Minority Report and 30 Something. Wish I could kind that post I made placing the best songs from Kingdom Come and Blueprint 3 on one album. Now that would be a great album.
 
This album came out 8 years ago today, gotta let it play out at least once today

So will we ever see JB drop the retro 4+ blue speckle that was supposed to be after 25 years of waiting?
