Ross's most redeemable feature was the beat selection. I did not listen to Ross before the beef and have grown disdain for him since the beef. Jada's cd was wack. Not feeling it at all.Expected quality future releases:Jay-Z's The Blueprint 3Fabulous Loso's WayMethod Man & Red Man Blackout 2Only maybe 2 of them albums belong in that list of quality releases. 808's is horrible, Jeezy's album was avaerage, same with Jigga's. Although I can't say anything about Chriisettes album as I haven't heard it.I'm expecting nothing from that Fabolous album, the same old shit from him.

Nas' "Untitled" was on Def Jam and dope as fuck.
why does everybody think that their opinion is better than everybody else's opinion. "this album was hot... no that album was average" talk... i mean who named y'all the Grand Wizard Opinion Masters?

What major labels have been good lately is a better question. I thought Ludacris' last one was alright, the second half and especially the ending of it were really good. It's just how the industry is right now. The positives from being on Def Jam is that you get a good budget for beats and access to producers, and you're pretty likely to have a guest appearance from Jay-Z and maybe Nas. You aren't likely to find great complete albums because they are trying to go for a couple commercial hits, but there should be quality tracks with the resources the artists have.

Answer: More times than Jeezy & Lil' Jon has said "Yeah" combinedYour opinion is worthless.
