Nope. It's performance. Jay never achieved that.



Jay got one undisputed classic: RD.

Blueprint is a very good album. A classic? Maybe not.
needing classic albums to be b2b classics is arbitrary shyt, and your not gonna sit here and tell me its some barometer a rapper needs because its not.

yes its impressive when a rapper makes a run, but that is not the end all be all to what makes an amazing rapper. nor does that automatically put such rapper over other ones with mutiple classics.

@bolded: Jay got like 2-3 classics that is not even a argument. Dude got mutiple classic albums:comeon:

Of course, it's impresive and its a testimony of his talent. Most of them CAN'T do that.

Jay ain't got 3 classics fam. Stop iy. Don't bring AMerican Gangster or the Black album. They aint classics.

there's absolutely no guarantee he would've been. breh could've fallen off, not evolved with the times, not been the same businessman jay is - i'm sure puff would've fukked him over at some point, and def wouldn't have married the biggest r&b pop star (something that has breathed life into the reach and status of jay).

At some point? Puff fukked him over while he was alive and he ended up dead :dead:

I really don't see Puff getting the chance to do Biggie dirty. Wasn't Biggie planning a triple disc set, which was the original Born Again? He probably would've done The Commission album and then chilled for some years before dropping another album if he dropped anything else at all.

Puffy need to pay the cost and restore those samples on Ready to Die, I can't even listen to that "remastered" bullshyt :scust:



Jay is better than Biggie because everything he ever rapped about is all facts meanwhile Biggie mom came out multiple times saying he was spitting ducktales. :wow:

Jay and Big are just about equal, Big's voice is what pushes him over the top. Jay literally has a WOAT voice

Just had this same argument at my cousin wedding. I'm like Jay cool but he dont have an album better the Life After Death.

And Kanye would beat him in a verzus
