Black Album Wasn't That Hot
SGV:
As good as it was that Jay held down an album all by himself, that don't make it any hotter. He had a lot of big name producers, but that still didn't make it great. I think he worried more about flow on this, sometimes he sounded like he was just talking non-sense. I appreciated the tracks he opened up on, though. I think it was a good product, just not as great as everyone said. Probably if this wasn't his "last" album, it would've been another Jay album, but it's caught in the hype.
Doggystylin:
first listen i thought it was average, could have been hotter, but now, i couldnt be feelin it more, hes got some fuckin hot lyrics in that album, just listen to it, and his flow cant get better on some of the songs, there are quite a few just straight up flawless verses on this album and you dont get much of that. i think with some time this can be considered a classic.

AZ, The Bravehearts, Millenium Thug & Blitz were on Stillmatic but Nas was completely solo on The Lost Tapes.

Yeah plus Amerie and Mary J. Blige on the version I got. And you can't really count The Lost tapes cause that's more of a compilation of songs from the recording sessions of I Am & Stillmatic than an actual album.
So name one

Naw, if u don't like it u don't like it. But IMO guests would've prolly made it less hot than it is
