[Goldie]

Pick 5

 

[5 Grand]

Where's Reasonable Doubt?

 

[Word....Life]

Where's Reasonable Doubt?

I’m thinking RD n BP are givens…

Could be wrong tho

Where's Reasonable Doubt?

i think the point is to discuss albums that aren’t widely considered his best

for example, a similar poll was created for nas last week that didn’t include illmatic (at least i don’t think it did)

 

[Goldie]

5th slot came down to BP2 and American Gangster.

AG is more consistent, but eventhough BP2 had a handful of duds, it's highs were really high.

Went with BP2.

 

[RandomNegro]

The best album here is American gangster, that’s pretty much a more mature version of reasonable doubt. So from there, I would say volume one is the second best album out of this entire list. One or two songs stop it from being an immaculate album. Then from there, I’d say the dynasty, because he was trying to find his sound, but he lyrically rapped his off on this album. It’s just that production wise, he wasn’t where he was gonna be with the blueprint. Then I select volume two because if I should die, it’s such an amazing song that I don’t hear too many people talk about.

 

[IUTpt2]

The first 5 albums on that list.

 

[GNS]

Lucifer, Lucifer, son of the morning! I'm gonna chase you out of Earth

 

[Water Ur Seeds]

A.G was dope but Ive not played it in years whereas Vol.3 and Dynasty tracks still pop up on my playlists...

As whole I loved the concept of A.G, defo something Jay needed to drop a dope album at the time, wish we got more concept albums...

 

[God_Body]

Vol. 2 is so overrated

 

[Bed$tuy🇭🇹]

American Gangster is my favorite Jigga album
Vol 2 was epic 2 me. 2nd favorite jigga album
I like Watch the Throne too.

[ChicagoFigure]

Was just listening to vol 3 a few days ago

The last verse on dope man

Lots of good songs on that joint

 

[ChicagoFigure]

Vol. 2 is so overrated

Wasn't til I got older that I realized how trash the Can I Get A beat is.

That beat is prime example of how rappers made beats hot where today it's often vice versa

 

[already home_17]

outside the hits, vol. 2 isn’t very memorable

 

[RozayTabernacle]

Kingdom Come would make a decent EP. First couple tracks are hot to me

 

[southsil4lil]

Besides Anything and Hollywood I like that album, some gems on there

 

[southsil4lil]

Surprised it's ahead of Vol 1

 

[grYmes]

Whoever out here picking Magna Carter…

Beats like “Can I get a” is the reason a lot of people say Jigga music didn’t age well..
