Not to me he does...
-
Blueprint and American Ganster, although AG is a personal classic of mines....
-
BP is the closest thing he has to a classic but then again Kanye was the star of the show....the production > Jay's lyrics
-
RD, Blueprint are certified.. at least by critics and fans
Black Album my favorite though..... -
Yes, he does.
-
Hov's next album about to be a gem. He's been on that "every other is a classic" tip since blueprint.
-
Reasonable Doubt and The Blueprint. I still say get rid of Hello Brooklyn and throw in one or two more solid tracks on American Gangster and we could be discussing that as a potential future Hip Hop classic

at least a good album -
Reasonable Doubt,Blueprint 1,Black Album=Classic albums nuff said
-
aside from reasonable doubt...vol.2(look at all the hits), blueprint, black album, american gangster(should have won rap album of the year over weak ass carter III)
I also think vol. 1 is underrated but I wouldnt call it a classic -

Maaaannn this is what yall keep doing!!!..Yall always tripping when it comes to this man.How is he always #1??!!!...ok lets do this from.
1.reasonable doubt
2.In My Lifetime vol.1
3.In My Lifetime vol.2
4.The Blueprint
5.The Blueprint 2
6.The Black Album
7.Kingdom Come
8.American Gangster
9.The Blueprint 3
Ya'll name from these albums your fave songs on each and lets see how many you get from just one album!..this is what people do never appreciate until the persons nomore smh! -
Reasonable Doubt and Blueprint....and possibly The Black Album..other than that.
-
I'd say Blueprint amd Vol 2.......those were the joints that revolutionized hip hop at the time and brought influnce to hip hop.........
I'd go as far to say those two were even classics if Reasonable doiubt isnt one....in my opinion it isnt.......people throw it in there cause its jay-z.....thats like goin back and giving kobe rookie of the year cause he won 5 championships -
rd, blueprint, and black album all classics and 1 near classic in ag stop hatin the goat the resume speaks for itself.
-
what's classic to one isn't classic to another.classics are based off opinion.and just because it's not classic doesn't mean it's not a good album
? is on that "if your album ain't classic it ain't ? "theory.like they can't appreciate a solid album anymore -
reasonable doubt
blueprint
Black Album
American Gangster
these could be possibly classics -
Jay has no classics.
-
Reasonable Doubt, The Blueprint, The Black Album, American Gangster
-
RD & BP are generally recognized as classics. TBA is classic (In my personal opinion) & Vol. 1 would be minus 1 or 2 songs.

^^^^^This, and add In My Lifetime, Vol. 1 -
seriously what is so "classic" about that boring ass reasnoozeable doubt album. I dont remember ? in 96 saying "oh man you gotta cop that Jay Z because its classic". i never heard anyone talk about RD until the Nas/Jay Z beef. RD is a jigga warriors girly influenced answer to Illmatic. there is nothing classic about a rehashed album based off that mafioso ? that Ghost and Rae made classic on OB4CL a year prior. i could sit through Kingdome Come before RD. boring, boring, boring ass album
