If Blueprint 2 was a single album it would've been a classic

[Shadow King]

The say this about every double albums thats been released

Having more songs gives you a larger margin for error. Nobody puts out 28 tracks and nikkas feel ALL 28. Plus most artists who do double albums say "I'm a fan of so much so I wanna do so much" which is basically a correct way of saying I'm not focused.

But I'm a person who thinks nobody should go over 16 tracks so

 

[Colilluminati]

1st disc was cool , but the 2nd disc was classic all day .

 

[North]

i know that album catches unanimous hate on here but honestly if he took the best of both discs and made one album it would be

Hovi Baby
The Watcher 2
Excuse Me Miss
All Around The World
Poppin Tags
The Bounce
Did It My Way
Diamonds Are Forever
Meet The Parents
Somehow Someway
BP2
nikka Please
2 Many Hoes
Ballad
bytches & Sisters

take this tracklist and add People Talkin' and Jay easily has another classic on his hands

allota A1 cuts but lotta trash on that album

blueprint 2 (the track)
2 many hoes
someway

 

[Figaro]

dudes front on this album though like it wasn't just as much fire as it was garbage, Jay was just tryna overcompensate after Ether and ending up fumbling

edit - matta fact @Figaro name some double albums that they say this about

I've seen many, the obvious comes to mind Life After Death, All Eyez On Me, Wu Tang Forever...I've even read if you add a few tracks from disc 2 to replace 1 or 2 on songs disc 1 from Streets Disciple...it can be considered a classic.

All mater of opinion though

 

[Burger King]

you say this like jay has other classics ...

 

[OG Talk]

Pac, Outkast and Big were the only ones to successfully pull off the double album...

Everyone else that tried had to throw in way too much filler and non fluent features....

You've been putting in work the past few days breh, props. However, all that is basically washed away w this thread. Do you remember BP2 when it came out?

 

[ZEB WALTON]

They knew they fvcked up by making it a double, tried to condense it, and it still wasn't a classic.

The GOAT Nasir won

He did but only thing worse than blueprint 2 was street disciple. Horrid album.

 

[DoomzdayzV]

there were like 3 good cuts out of both discs. This was the album that almost sunk him.

 

[1986]

Jigga himself pretends he never released this album...

[DJ Mart-Kos]

BP 2 is great!

 

[DJ Mart-Kos]

Some How, Some Way is 1 of Jay's best songs.

People always underrate the cohesiveness of the songs making an album a classic. Not sure these in whatever order would be a classic

 

[It is a mystery]

I made "blueprint 2 classic" threads like 3 times on thecoli and every time it has sprouted a booth blueprint 2 takeover
I might make another
