Reasonable Doubt.10 out of 10.Classic from start to finish
In my lifetime.7 out of 10.A good album but a step down from reasonable doubt.
Hard knock Life.5 out of 10.Weak album,couple of classic tracks but some horrendous ones.
Life and times of S.Carter.8 out of 10.A big step up from hard knock life,this is the album jay z started to really come into his own.
The dynasty.8 out of 10.Not really a solo album,but a good intro to the roc.
The blueprint.9 out of 10.To me this album isnt a classic,its got a few weaker songs.The lyrics were also watered down,but the production is pretty much flawless.
The blue print 2.6 out of 10.Un even,too long and messy.A rap double album in other words.
The black album.10 out of 10.Flawless album.
Kingdome come.7 out of 10.I felt he took some step forwards in maturing his lyrics but the production was a step behind and his flow wasnt near his black album flow.
American gangster.8 out of 10.Solid album start to finish with a few weaker songs
the blueprint 3.4 out 10.His worst album

RD - 10/10 - Straight up classic.
In My Lifetime - 9/10 - Would have been on the same level as "RD" except for the 2 poppy, trash singles.
Hard Knock Life - 5.5/10 - Mainstream crap
Life & Times - 7/10 - Some real hot tracks. Def. a step up from his last LP.
Dynasty - 6.5/10 - Compilation
Blueprint - 8.5/10 - Some weak tracks ("Hola" comes to mind)
Blueprint 2 - 6.5/10 - Would have been classic or just as good as BP1 if kept at 1 disc
Black Album - 10/10 - Love it. Classic.
Kingdom Come - 7/10. New style; worked on some tracks, didn't on others.
American Gangster - 8/10 - Loved the old school flow it gave off.
Blueprint 3 - 7/10

Jay-Z is a fucking idiot for putting "ain't no nigga" on Reasonable Doubt otherwise it would have been a classic.

lol that's ironic coming from you :laugh:
i respect that you don't like it, but you're usually very tolerant when it comes to mainstream music.
besides, you rated the album as decent, that's not what i expect from something that you call crap :P

Reasonable Doubt - 10/10, classic no doubt
.
.
.
fuck the next three or four albums, I haven't listened to them enough.

Blueprint - 7/10, a classic to many people, not me. Eminem had the best verses on the whole album.

Blueprint 2 - 8/10, would've been better as a single disc, but I like this better than Blueprint 1. Some great tracks from Just Blaze and Neptunes.

Black Album - 9/10, a front to back classic, not 10/10 because of that wack Quik beat and the overly played out 99 Problems. 'Threat' is one of my favourites from this disc.

Kingdom Come - 7.5/10, 30 Something, Trouble, Lost Ones, Show Me What You Got all great tracks. The rest of the album was boring to me.

American Gangster - 8/10, although if I start the album from track 8, it gets a 9.5. I can't believe Diddy and JD could still create some hot beats in 07.

Blueprint 3 - 8/10, but only because it provided the soundtrack to my New York trip. A lot of the album is pandering to new trends and artists, which I didn't like. True quality of this album would be better judged in a year's time. Kanye and No ID still came through tho.

Reasonable Doubt, Blueprint and Black Album are all good. Blueprint 2 is an abomination and I never bothered to listen to the rest.
