i agree with that, he's a radio rapper. He can be clever here and there, but i've never listened to a whole jay-z album and just been blown away. or walked away from it with it on my mind all day. to me i don't think Jay-z has one hip hop classic , album wise, in his catelouge. Is that me being bias? naw i really don't think so, because if I divorce my opinion and look at it more objectively....really i can't say that one of his albums stacks up to the true blue classics of Illmatic,cuban linx, 36 chambers, ready to die, chronic, doggystyle, most of outkasts' albums....ect. i think he has classic SONGS here and there on his albums. but i think he gets too much props because of that. I feel that he's a medium sized fish in a low talent pond....meaning his talent is blown up way beyond what it should be, because of how whack the rap game has been the last past decade or so. People are hungry for a hip hop savior so i think they see him and drink his kool aid.

Quik's shit was ass, Kanyes shit was ass, em's shit was ass, neptunes shit was ass. Legit 4 really good songs the rest of the album was crap.

I'm not a big Jay-Z fan either but The Black Album was great. Probably my personal favorite Jay album.

Same here, I get that Reasonable Doubt is regarded as one of the best hip hop albums of all time but it doesn't really do much for me.
