I never skip any of the songs on this CD except I Know What Girls Like. Hell, even Sunshine gets played.
Same here! Album is definately a personal classic to me. I put this waaaay above the Black Album. That isone of Jay's most overated album IMO. Shiee, I'll even take American Gangster over BA. I don't even acknowledge Kingdom Come. Listened to thatalbum like 4 times at the most

From the minute this album came out, it didnt sit well with me.
It's somewhat grown on me over the years, but I would'nt call it classic.

vol. 1 is that shhhh man.
all i know is to this day i'm still
at how A Million and One Questions
and Rhyme No More weren't made into two separate songs. imo both
of em were cold enough to be two different songs. i know i ain't gotta
be the only one who got pissed when A Million was stopped.
how can you not like this album?
City is Mine, Imaginary Player, Streets is Watching,
Real N's, Rap Game/Crack Game, You Must Love Me.
imo all that are some of the coldest shh from his catalog.
and don't get me started on Where I'm From...
the discombobulation of my...uhh..."eghck face" so to speak,
was on some other type shh especially on the second verse.
and the transition of the gutter %$@ beat from Where I'm From to the bells
and the church-like funeral beat of You Must Love Me is just insane man...
some y'all just trippin. just cuz he went on a more commercialized image
on this one, all of a sudden shh is average or wack...don't lie, y'all just ain't
gave the entire record a chance cuz of that...

GET A LAW SUIT FOR $#*% LIKE THAT... I FEEL TRAPPED
I SWEAR TO EVERYTHING, when I leave this earth, its gone be on both feet
NEVER KNEES IN THE DIRT
You can try me @!##+*, but when I squeeze it hurts
Fine we'll lose two lives both yours and mine
Give me any amount of time don't let Ms. Carter grieve, at the funeral parlor drippin tears on my sleeve
Told the judge didn't budge, It Was Him Or Me
And I aint tryna be hard, but I'm guilty as charged
Put my mercy on the court and my faith in God
AND PRAY HARD NONE OF MY NEPHEWS WANNA BE STARS...... LUCKY ME
soooo much realness in those bars

You ain't the only one....
Luckily we have the Remix with one more verse
In my books this album is tied with BP for the 2nd best.

million and one remix was piff...on the third verse
"HA! Well they call me Jay-hovah cause the flow is religious
Ever since I was 16 I been holding digits
I'm seeing this industry clearer
As if I had coke in the trunk and cops in the rear mirror
I slow flows all to death, So ya'll ho's know whos best, Jigga!!
The flow be ipendito, for the mama's I hable espanol nikito
O-et-te I got timing like a subway, now holla back ba-by
Uh-huh-huh Jay-Z, you motha f'n right
in the darkest nights let off my gun for light
To guide ya'll through, show you how it's done
I'm the question and the answer like Iverson
Jets be private ones, no gate to lift
So when I take flight it's from Hanger 6
Bang wit this, Wake up wit one in your brain
and the cocaine flows straight, numbin your pain
This ain't your speed young man, run in your lane
So I can come through doin a hundred and change
I put one in your frame picture that, Who's runnin the game
Let's get to that I guess we one in the same, A Million and One
Once Again
Novacane flow, ho you ain't know
Like a balla in an Impalla Jigga remain Low
Then I pop up and tear your block up and kick off like soccer
In a range rove twist ho's like ankles, Till the next time Poppa
I hit ya'll with a million more'"
