Future - "Reasonable Doubt was not hot when it dropped"

[Maximus Rex]

[Notorious 1 E.Y.E.]

i remember when people aint really about this album ....
shyt, my camp counselor put me on to rd, this was in 2000. even told me about how there was 2 different album covers then told me which one to get

NY cats only want to run with the narrative that Hov was huge in '96 because it's their defense against this claim that Hov wouldn't have gotten as big if Biggie and Pac hadn't died. That's all this is ever about which is weird. They just can't let it be what happened.

 

[iamduval]

He's right but I didn't like his tone

 

[Jigganaut]

Hey man I'm a huge Jay fan and loved the album but I got Chino XL here to save you all before I got Reasonable doubt. I regretted that shyt though immediately though. I thought Jay was retarded in that Ain't no nikka video he sounded slow as shyt talking in the beginning.

 

[T.he I.nformant]

He didn't say that.

Pretty much.

I said this in many threads, nikkas wasn't checking for Jay at all until the two of the great 3 died.

Lmao funniest part is when he says Nas first album "with if i ruled the world" was great when it dropped.
Yea he was wrong,but the fact he didnt think about ILLmatic,shows how much that album flopped.

 

[just my thoughts]

No it isn't, the opening liens to the verse are Bun B's lines, that line is jays.

it is bun b's lines

 

[bigbadbossup2012]

I live in Colorado and all my friends who listened to east coast hip hop had the album when it dropped, including myself.

Doesnt mean theworld at large was on him and fact is it flopped

 

[bigbadbossup2012]

he is correct jay-z released a dope album in a time period where everybody could say they had a hot album
or a classic cause that is how god albums were back then

jay-z was just another dope album on a long list of good albums that dropped back then


like example nas illmatic changed the game and made a huge impact and imprint on the game even though it did not sell alot of records.

snoop doggystyle same with the chronic album all eyez on me ready to die life after death me against the world killuminati the 7 day theory etc

It had little impact and flopped like jay,stop.
Know you're history THEN SPEAK.
It sold slower than reasonable doubt
