At what point in his career did Jay-Z start being mentioned as one of the GREATs?

oh and he was considered great after blue print one because he attained much commercial successful but at the ame time it still was very street
 
? if Jay-Z is an overated lyricist then who exactly is a great one. Because lyrically i cant even name 5 cats who can do what he does. and im not just talking content, but multis, bar structure, story telling he has it ALL. The fact that i can listen to a jay track from ten yrs ago and find something new speaks to how great of a lyricist he is
