Reasonable Doubt was a fucking dope album. .

WeRd-smith 09-22-03 11:59 PM

i think jaz-z just gets hated cuz of all the hype that he got after biggie died..you know the whole "best lyricist crown goes to jigga" people love to hate the best and then the beef with nas and suddenly jay-z sucks..fuck naw he is dope no question...ignore the dickriders who say otherwise they are simply uninformed

Mr.Christensen 09-23-03 12:07 AM

im guessing all those bad comments are directed at me
umm, i never liked him... back from his 1st song i heard... him and foxy from nutty professor... i just dont like HIM
his mic skills are off the hook, he is def a top 10... I just dont like HIM

hope that clears that up

wogzta 09-23-03 05:05 AM

hes pretty ill, but lyk every rapper he comes off shit sum times... oh, and Nas murders him (if only he didnt go so mainstream)

illmatic... maybe i shuld buy it sum time soon

Jay-Z is strong, his lyrics and his style have changed dramatically, not for the worst though, he is good to listen to

Coast 09-23-03 09:50 AM

his raps are either really good, or just plain succk... too bad he done after this album

Johnny 6-feet 09-23-03 12:28 PM

its really a question of whether hes trying his hardest or not. when he isnt, expect multis and filter lines about played out material, when he is, he's one of the best rappers rapping.

D-Dizzle 09-23-03 02:22 PM

The thing with Jay is that he's a biusnessmen/emcee. Sometimes he does songs for the mass appeal and commercial arena..and even though he one of the better comercial rappers he dumbs down his style to fit that crowd...But then he's on some real shit (i.e. the first Blueprint, mixtape freestyles) Jay-Z is that nigga.....

self 09-23-03 03:06 PM

I don't listen to him, just don't ...no real reason really. Just not my interest.

I do agree with what you said Cam, he does have a lot of quotable's. One I can recall I've always thought was good;
"He'd do anything for her
She'd do anything for him
So don't let anything occur"
- I think thats it...

C-Section 09-23-03 08:24 PM

about his where abouts i wasnt convinced, so i kept feeding her dollars till shit started to make cents.

thats sick word play.

but i havent really liked him since reasonable doubt.

Bio*Chemist 09-23-03 08:38 PM

I myself don't really care for Jay-Z however he is reppin Brooklyn...

Never listened to a whole album by him..however I have listened to enough singles and other lyrics of this to say yes, he is good..To me he is just lazy with his lyrics sometimes...Well I guess that's commercial for you..???

I just listened to the gift the curse in depth and he does actually have quoteables out the ass, i just didnt catch them the first time i listened to it because i was just feeling the beats etc, but this convinced me he's pretty dope:

Guess who's back in the mothafuckin house?
With a half black, half white chick - i call her minnie mouse!

^ Thats a fuckin killer line!
What you guys think of him?


jay-z = dope

MyNd. FuLL 09-23-03 10:10 PM

no question jay z is the illest and my favorite emcee by far, got all his albums, my fav is reasonble, vol.3 and blueprint, for those that dont think his is good please listen to these cd's or any of them and then make your honest assessment of him. his wordplay is nice, his flow is so dope its scary, his quotables are amazing, just an all around dope ass emcee, better than biggie, hard to say cuz biggie aint with us no more (R.I.P) but he is my favorite


Y'all don't see, clearly cause the reign ain't gone
"The Dynasty," no not Ming but Shawn's

thug nigga til the end tell a friend bitch,
wont change for no paper plus i been rich


sick ass wordplay, yall


holla
