Blueprint III revisited. Where does this belong in the decade? 2000-2010

I just listened to this from front to back for the 1st time in 2010 just last week.  I enjoyed it more than I thought I would.

And "On To The Next One" is one of the best tracks Swizz has made in YEARS (not saying too much, but still)...

Only track that is absolute CERTIFIED basura for me is "Off That"...

& "So Ambitious" is a personal fav...

Hate wasn't that bad of a song...

Jay's 1st verse was good

Hoover, Hova,
Both are American Gangsters,
You choose whose colder,
Rappers get nasty in the booth but I can’t even stomach myself, ulcer
More realer cause I’m closer

My hussle, so Russell,
I stretch work, Yoga,
You know i got it down dog, Al Roker,
I used to knock pounds off,
It ain’t nothing for me to knock Nouns off

& you can't compare this & AG... AG is a top 5 Jay album. BP3 isn't a top Jay album, just a good project that he put out.

I like to call it Kingdom Come 2.

Definitely in his bottom 3 albums.

His flow throughout the album was "off."

You %*!%%$ are crazy.


If you don't like "Young Forever." you're crazy.

And dude who said it's the worst Jay song ever... HA!


But BP3, at worst, is Jay's 4th best album.


RD > BP = AG > BP3


I said it before, and I'll say it again. BP3 is better than TBA, and it's not even close.

You thought THE ORIGINAL BLUEPRINT was overrated. Kinda hard for you to like anything else with that standard isn't it?

Wow BP3 > TBA? I like BP3 but that's a new one. TBA was introspective Jay at his finest.

You *@@+!* are funny though with the type of standards y'all place on Jay-Z.


His last two albums were American Gangster and BP3.

TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ALBUMS.


One proved that he could still rap about drugs and the street life, BETTER THAN ANYBODY.


The other proved that he could still produce hit singles (Run This Town, Empire State Of Mind).

There's 10 tracks on BP3 that could chart on the Billboard Hot 100.


D.O.A. (#24)

Run This Town (#2)

Empire State Of Mine (#1)

On To The Next One (#37)

Young Forever (#10)


Those all charted.



Real As It Gets

Off That

A Star Is Born

Venus Vs. Mars

Already Home


Those would ALL hit the Hot 100. #%#$, even "So Ambitious" could probably chart.



So tell me...who can make an album as good as American Gangster on some street #%#$, and then follow it up with an album full of hot singles?

NOBODY.

What the hell does charting singles have to do with how good an album is? I suppose every one of B.E.P's albums after Fergie hopped on are in your top 5 right?

Leave it to a guy with an AZ s/n avy to say some idiotic @*%!...

How you rank Mr Knowles albums and NOT mention Vol 1??

Now you're sayin BP3 > TBA?? Obviously you have AWFUL taste in music (judging by your avy), and you've removed ANY resonable doubt (no pun intended) with that statement...

Did my dude just make up spots for songs he thinks would be charting singles and peddle that as an opinion with any support?

Gotta be joshing me.
