all that hype for magna carter holy grail and yet it collects nothin' but dust now

[*L*E*G*A*C*Y*]

i still play the joint with Ross from time to time mainly because of the best and the Gawd Pimp C droppin knowledge in the intro. Besides that, I stopped revisiting this album no more than 3 months after it came out.

I feel ya...

I only listened to this album 3 times after it came out and I have no interest at all in listening to it again.

[WaveGang]

as forgettable as bp3?

 

[SHAQAVELLI]

I thought the album was very good

Not sure how it aged because, admittedly, I haven't listened in a while. But when it was in rotation, I fukked with it.

 

[hoodheronova]

it was a mainstream album. Any one of those tracks could have been a single and do numbers

 

[Soundbwoy]

Jay Z worst album

you know he has an album called Blueprint 2

 

[Mike Otherz]

belafonte a legand but lets not act he dont say fked up shyt bout famous black people all the time. that time he called colin powell a house slave

im not saying jay galling him a boy wasnt foul, and it makes make me cringe, but if he dont at least defend his wife from slander then what is he there for? of course he gonna take an L from the kufi community that pollutes twitter and social media but belafonte did fall back after that jab. that crowd that belafonte run with like cornel west is very loose around the mouth with that racial slander. and to prop up a pretend man of the people, capitalistic cac springsteen, wtf kinda civil rights shyt is that.

That marketing

From the hype of the overrated production down to everybody wearing neutral colors in the commericial

that was the most ground breaking thing about that album IMO and the fact it was released tru an app

I just googled this shyt and

 

[mikishere]

thought it was decent when it first dropped... year and a half later the only tracks that still get burn is Beach is Better, Nickels and Dimes & Oceans

 

[kp404]

Nothing will ever be worse than volume 3

Pure foolishness. Jay was spittin all over Vol. 3 and the production was excellent.

 

[GrindtooFilthy]

Production was solid but the album was forgettable. Not horrible.

i would listen to kingdom come and yeezus before i listen to this bullshyt

Im waiting for @Harry B to come in with a full financial report to justify this god awful album

Money aside, Jay should have hung it up after TBA. Every year that has passed since 2001 Jay has lost about 3-5% of the bass in his voice. These days he sounds like Gilbert Godfrey on the track.

 

[He Who Posts Well]

American Gangster was Jay-Z's last good album.

 

[Isaiah Bradley]

That album was good, fawk yall talmbowt
