    The Black Album
    the black album, even though it's pretty much a commercial album

    life is good just didn't do it for me, I was super pumped for it and I only like a few songs....saw nas live right around when it came out and figured the show would get me to really get into life is a good but I just can't

    I enjoyed the black album more. Not the original, but the Kno and Danger Mouse remix's were dope as ? and made me appreciate it much more. Life is good was alright, liked maybe half or a third of the album.

    I think the Black Album is pretty overrated lyrically (like much of Jay's albums). The production is fire but a lot of the songs get overshadowed by the mediocre raps. Still a solid album, but LIG is a 3.9/5 while black Album is a 3.5/5

    The only reason I'm voting for Life Is Good is because it gets unnecessary hate.

    The Black album is a mighty fine album and has aged well. I still bump Dirt Off Your Shoulder and Encore.

    We'll see how Life Is Good ages.

    I like The Black Album slightly more. Life Is Good was dope in its own right.

    Love both albums. But sometimes I think that the black album is Jay's second best album - in a discography filled with a lot of amazing albums. Gotta go with that one.

    At first I thought The Black Album was a good not great album but over time it grew on me and it's one of Jays top 5 to me. HOWEVER, Life is Good was and is a great album from day one. I love them both, but Life is Good just edges it out.

    Black Album and Reasonabke Doubt are Jay's most overrated album. BP2 was the last album Jay showcased incredible rap skills. It's been downhill ever since. It's very noticeable in his flow on this album compared to the previous effort. Life Is Good is flames.

    Never looked at The Black Album as a classic and I hated that fake ass retirement. These songs are trash to me



    What more can i say
    Change Clothes
    Encore

    Despite being a advocate for Life Is Good being a classic album in the IC classic or not thread, I came to my senses that its a solid album. But LIG is better than the Black Album? If LIG was going against BP2, Kingdom Come Kingdom Done, or BP3 maybe but The Black Album?

    Jay don't know how to rap on Dj Quik beats.. It's a shame. Pretty much show that Jay ain't the chosen one.

    Jay shouldve retired after the black album instead of a Michael Jordan comeback he came back to the rap game more like Michael Vick
