Looking back on it... The Blueprint 3 was kinda slept on

[MidwestFinest]

Production is 4.5/5 stars and Jay lowkey had some good lines on here. Granted, there are wack songs on here and the "Half man half mammal" line but

What You Talkin About: 7/10
Thank You- 9/10
D.O.A- 5/10 (was a good song at the time but didn't age well imo)
Run This Town- Classic song, Kanye killed his verse. 8.5/10
Empire State Of Mind- Song was everywhere and still getting play to this day. 8/10
Real As It Gets- 7/10
On To The Next One- Never felt this song at all.. People got mad af at the "nikkas want my old shyt, buy my old albums" tho 4/10
Off That- Production the only thing I like about this song. Drake hook meh. 5/10
A Star Is Born- Cole verse was fire and liked the concept of the song 7.5/10
Venus Vs. Mars- Nah. 3/10
Already Home- The "half man half mammal" line is still til this day but classic Cudi hook and Hov did his thing outside of that awful line. 8.5/10
Hate- Underrated song. It's catchy for a song that was made for fun 7/10
Reminder- The production :obamasweat: 8/10
So Ambitious- If only Skateboard P still made more songs like these and Alright 9/10
Young Forever- This song is whatever to me. 5/10

Outside of 2 wack songs and a couple average ones, BP3 is underrated imo. It's better than MCHG, BP2 and Kingdom Come.

[JayYoung314]

[Travellin' Man]

drink coaster status

Thanks for catching for that i meant to put 7/10 on the first song. Thank You is a top 15 Jay song imo

On To The Next One- Never felt this song at all..

Because your taste is suspect.

Which is why you think Blueprint 3 was underrated (it wasn't - shyt sucked), and you can't even tell which was the most hip-hop sounding, memorable track on that shyt (On To The Next One)

Empire State of Mind and Run This Town were/are more memorable songs than On To The Next One Run This Town and Empire State of mind are getting play to this day, and I don't like On To The Next one mainly because of the beat

 

[SirBiatch]

I knew you'd use that smiley even before seeing your comment.

 

[B1G_controversy]

So Ambitious was the best song on the album, sonically

 

[YeLovesBoston]

Always felt like this

 

[SirBiatch]

Empire State of Mind and Run This Town were/are more memorable songs than On To The Next One Run This Town and Empire State of mind are getting play to this day, and I don't like On To The Next one mainly because of the beat

because they're pop records for pop radio. Which is where you're hearing it.

 

[GeeEffKay]

Got worse with time imo

 

[tonyclifton]

It's not that good


I might be the only one that fukks with Venus verses Mars though

Maybe it's cuz I was rolling when I heard it but it bangs imo

Ghetto techno Is easily the worst song by jay z and in the category of the elites it's right next to eminems"Fack"


It makes braveheart party sound like one mic. And that song is no. 3 on my elite rappers list


The song has so many things wrong

The beat sounds like a gay meth party

Lyrics are garbage

The fact he thought he was trying to "start another trend with this shyt" ( which in a whole is bullshyt, buts that's for another thread )

And the complete disrespect with that took more shots than pac had.


Jay is in my top 3 through. fukk the haters

RD
BP
BA
WT
AG are all classic
