Obviously I've heard Jay-Z in his prime. I know Reasonable Doubt word for word, adlibs included. But maybe my definition of 'fell off' isdifferent from yours. When I say fell off, I think DMX, Prodigy, 50, etc. Cats that used to be good rappers and now, are garbage. Hov doesn't qualify. Hesstill one of the best doing it. But back to the album, I'm not comparing American gangster to Reasonable Doubt or Blueprint, I compare it to the otherrecords dropped in '07, and I feel its one of the best, thats all im saying.

[alsdaman24]

Lupe's album easily, it's very refreshing and covers alot of topics and has something for everyone.

I was gonna say this just to be stupid, I should have known u woulda said it. For real tho... American Gangster and Finding Forever for me. Lupelacks that replay value Food and Liquor had.

 

[sorkoram]

I'm with Lupe on this one but Ghostface went in.

 

[djaman]

I don't think too many albums out this here can beat the combination of Yolanda's House/Shakey Dog. Shakey Dog is like the Cuban Linx days.

 

[ac ix]

SMH at none mentioning the REAL number 1 album of the year.

Top 3 Hip-Hop wise:
1. The Cool
2. Graduation
3. American Gangster
