Jay-z is back, and no I am not talking about Hova, I am speaking of the Reasonable doubt, late 90's king of hip-hop. The man behind the fuel within Sean carter. No matter what you care to say about this Rapper, he is the best in the last 2 decades, forget record sales, take that away for a moment, and open every album, with the exception of a few songs and I do mean three. Who can match what he has accomplished without a pen, off the top of his cerebal.
The Album is the perfect compilation of songs that fit directly into what Jay-z was all about in the beginning. From Rapping fast to slowing it down and grooving with each track to a gangster * correct Gangsta like rythm. No one need to mistake him as an artist to fit into comparison to any other that is putting out music as of late. The newer artist or the hardcore mixtape rappers that we get fludded with on the weekely bases. This is classic not because the rest of the music sucks, but because it is musical genious at its finest. If hip-hop was not a movement, culture whatever you want to call it, and he was the first it would be a phenomenon. Total shock and awe, yet and still, Hip-Hop is what it is, and Jay-z is using the musical style to bring you his artistry. Bottom line.
Final thought.Between him and the King of POP, I can tell you who is taking home the 2008 Grammy awards, the both of them, and I have not even heard MJ song yet.
Bump Forward!
