His albums are nothing special, and dropped one classic in 1996 yet still get's huge props in this controlled industry because he is a 'brand', and is used as a front man to sell all of their (his) business ventures. Gain Global Investments? They invest in their own creation, to help push and sell whatever he associates with. The game is rigged and controlled, but as far as talent goes, he was once a very good rapper, turned average rapper with very average albums.. Saying he's great, and that his albums are hot is falling for the marketing of the brand known as Jay ZThe Blueprint was a classic musically and for the impact it had on hip-hop, I personally think The Black Album was a classic too but I can see that one being more arguable back when I first heard Reasonable Doubt I wasn't into it like that off the rip like I was with The Blueprint
