    your opinoin is null and void...Reasonable Doubt is absolutely a Hip Hop classic...? you been smoking?

    RD aint no ? classic. all the albums from 96 that were huge at that time still get radio play especially Crossroads and California Love. I havent heard a song from RD on the radio since 1996 and that was the ? ass aint no ? song in which everybody thought was foxy joint. RD never was a classic. im not playing catch up like most of you jiggaboos. nobody was checkin for Jay Z in 96. Nobody was bumping no ? RD in 96. ? wasnt even calling albums "classic" in the 90s. RD became a classic when Jay Z needed a carbon footprint in the game like Nas had for Illmatic. Jay Z forced that "classic" ? on yall heads. even when vol 2 was on and poppin nobody talked about RD. hell be happy Jay Z didnt fizzle out 5 years later and was able to drop a classic BP1 instead of thinking the first ? gotta be the best. hell im a Prodigy/Mobb Deep stan and JH/Infamous aint ? compared to Hell On Earth (another album that overshadowed Jay Z. once again no one was checkin for Jay Z in 96). Real Jay Z fans know that Vol 1 was his best work in the 90s. Real Jay Z fans know the lyrical acclaim that Vol 1 recieved. a step up lyrically and musically from RD. aint no way a ? flowing off beat on a album gonna make it a classic. Vol1>TBA>BP1 Jay Z 3 classics. RD is not a classic. RD is an opinion that Jay Z shoved down yall ? throats. If any Jay Z "fan" puts RD over Vol 1 that tells me you a johnny come lately ? who hopped on the roc bandwagon in 2001. your opinion is null and void is you werent old enough to walk in a purchase a physical copy of RD during the time of its release because if you was that ? collected dust on the shelves and Pac, Bone, Fugees, Nas was what everyone was talking about and buying. Music Mania in austin was home away from home in the 90s. I have heard the most trendy to the most obscure hip hop discussed in that shop from 1992-2000 but i never heard any ? vouching for RD especially in 1996. this aint hate. im just tired of ? trying to rewrite history about RD. the album was ? weak, forgotten and stepped on until Jay Z reminded his new fans he had a career before 1998. ? RD 1/5 snoozefest. not a classic

    Yall ? tripping, Bp is waaayy better than RD. Don't get me wrong tho RD is def a classic but come on really?! So the BP ain't ? with RD on production? That's half the ? c.d. lol and BP is light years ahead of RD on production alone. Jay was more witty with the flow on RD but that's the only thing that tops BP. As far as lyrics, it's a toss up.

    "Blueprint" isn't even in "Reasonable Doubt's" league....
    the production carried that album...with RD, it was a mixture of dope production and dope rhymes....
    No matter what...BP is not ? with RD....it's easily Jay's second best, but nothing he did or will do in the future will top a perfectly crafted album like RD....
    Among the 5 best albums in '96....? the naysayers

    It's a great album and a classic in my book, but I don't think it's his best album...Reasonable Doubt is his best
