***** Jay Z, is one of my favorite rappers of all time, i think Reasonable Doubt was a perfect hip hop album, hands down. Lately though, everything hes dropped has been mediocre, sub par at best. I dont know if its because, i hold him to such high standards that anything less, than a classic album is unacceptable, but then again, look at ice cube, hes been in the game longer and hes still dropping heat! Im sorry to say this, but its time to hang it up jay, your just ruining your legacy like Jordan when he was with the Wizards!

he went downhill when he discovered Rihanna and sang part of the "Umbrella" song. I thought the album he put out 2 years ago was kinda lame.

Jay hasn't mad a "good" album since "The Black Album" in IMHO. Don't get me wrong he has made a couple of good songs, but not full albums
