handsdown reasonable doubt
Reasonable Doubt is the "RAW" all his other albums are "RE-POP"......
In someways I felt In My Lifetime Vol 1 was his best. His first 3 albums are the 3 best of his catalogue in my opinion.

Or did Jay somehow never match the so-called lyricism and beats since then? Becuz there's 1000000 reasons why Reasonable Doubt isnt his best and why its just the taggalong thing to say for ppl who like Jay but never really listen to his music like that

I don't need depth knowledge of Jigga to know what REASONABLE DOUBT meant to me. I used to rock that album on cassette when it first came out and still do to this day. My "knowledge" on Jay-Z is probably more then most of his dick riders.Reasonable Doubt is right up there in my EAST COAST classic album list right beside ILLMATIC, READY TO DIE.... probably even infront of them... Jigga's mistake in my books is dumbing down his lyrics...
