Wasnt mad at the album. He was chasing a super commercial sound from all the top hitters. Half of it coulda went but i appreciate the attempt at new things even if he fell on his face on some of them (not really but some baaaad decisions made aka austin powers hook was basura, intro, lenny kravitz???)

Could def be cut into one disk classic imo. 2.1 wasnt it tho

Hovi baby
The watcher 2
03 bonnie and clyde
Excuse me miss
All around the world
Guns n roses
Poppin tags
The bounce
Show you how
U dont know remix
Meet the parents
bytches and sisters
Blueprint 2
I did it my way
Diamonds are forever
Somehow someway
Ballad of a fallen soldier

This was the meat on the album. Rest was filler imo. Even some of these aint crazy great but theres def a classic in there

I tack on La la la and Guess whos back as well

NGL revisiting most of Jay's albums is tuff.

Jay-Z carried a lot of production. He was that nice. Usually its the other way around.

BP2 was bloated..

To be honest OP, I have a personal attachment to Disc 1.

All Around The World is my favorite track off Disc 1 !!!




For some reason, I played this in the UBER ride on repeat

I'm probably the only one here that can spin that whole double LP no issues. I love the way it was produced and mixed. I even added the 2.1 bonus tracks to it. Stop is a banger .

I'm listening to it now, waaaayyyyy to bloated and he was chasing too many trends with the songs (long ass dungeon family feature, lenny fukking kravitz) ??

best songs to me are on disc 2

A very embarrassing & bland album.

Trash.

Yall trippin. Sure it's got some fillers. But if it was condensed into 1 album it's a classic.

Every album Jay put out before 2012 is fire.
