And with that said, back to Shawn Carter the hustler, Jay-Z is dead...

[tical 30]

I know Volume 3 is near the bottom of his catalog when it comes to complete albums, but it has some sick songs that never get mentioned...

"There's Been a Murder"
"Dopeman"
"NYMP"
"So Ghetto"
"Come and Get Me"

I can't be the only one...

- Tical.

 

[dmv is rnb]

^Oh you're not.

Album isn't a "complete" album...which puts it at the bottom of the list of albums by Jay IMO. However, the top tracks on it %%%@ on mostpeoples albums as a whole. The intro/outro was disgusting, and all those tracks you mentioned are insane. Appreciated

 

[qaddafi]

for the most part, i love Vol.3, Theres been a murder is that

 

[abeautifulhaze]

Amil killed this album.

But "Theres been a Murder" and "Come and Get Me" are tuff as hell.

Jigga street lyricism was at an all time high on this album.

This is back when he had the entire game in the vice grip.

 

[air bonilla 23]

Vol. 3 is definitely not my favorite, but it has some banging tracks.

 

[crossisom]

Snoopy Track FTW

"U Knoooow, we RAAAAAHDE
All Daaaaaaay, all NAAAAAAAHT
Pop Crissss, Shoot diiiiiiice
*%$* ******* fo LAAAAAAHF"

 

[harlemtothebronx]

I used to be hooked on this album.

 

[deepinthajeep]

The Snoopy track is bonkers.

Homie, I'm not into hype, trust me I'm still street

$$%% with me if you wanna.

Co-sign... I hate Vol. 2 with the only passion

 

[tical 30]

I remove ya roof $!%$#, let the sun shine in
38 waist, enough to fit one nine in
Really a 36, without the gun I'm thin
But when the gat is tucked, I'm fat as +#$!

- Tical.

I remove ya roof _ let the sun shine in.
38 waist enough to put1 Nine in
Really a 36 without the gun...Im thin
But when the gat is tucked...Im fat as f***
Ignorant bastid...Im takin it back to day 1
No kids but trust me I know how to raise a gun
For _s that think I spend my days in the sun (no kids, son

)
Well heres the shock of your life
The glock not the mic
Homey im not in a hype
Trust me i'm still street
You still F'in up...then trust me I still creep
Yeah I know the platinum chain be lookin' real sweet
But reach and I bury _ 60 feet deep
S Dot Carter turn rappers inta martyrs
Seperate fathers from theyre daughters
Why bother?
Im a crook like you
I took like you
I disobeyed the law, threw out the book like you
How dare you look at Jigga....like i'm shook like who?
I keep the fif with me!
_ Come And Get Me !!!


Who spits like that?

Jigga was a beast. He demolished that verse over a looped up guitar snare and nothin else

. That was damn near acapella.

i bought vol 3 twice... and i had the bootleg wit the extra tracks

"if u in ya car... i dont care if its winter... i want u to put all the windows down... zone out... buckle up..."

the only song that even puts vol 2 up against volume 3 is coming of age 2...

 

[flatbushfiyah23]

This is one of my favorite Jay tracks and is severely underrated as someone said already.

Oh and I agree Vol 3 (which is a 4/5 IMO) is better than Vol 2. The album just flows better.

You aint the only champ. The ending of Vol. 3 is sick, you got There's Been a Murder, Come and Get Me, NYMP, and Hova Outro all together whichequals.....

. Like I said before, he's the best in the business.

 

[ScroogeMcBuckz]

"Back to sean carter the hustla, jay-z is dead"
Appreciated. But you can never have your volume too loud because of them gunshots and scream at the beginning.
