im sure alot of u read the new issue of xxl
and 2wards the end of ''jay's'' interview he drops a big hint 4 possibly
another album...


JAY-''i really thought reasonable-doubt was gonna be my one and only album
.......but after we signed the distribution deal with def-jam.....defjam execs were like
cant just move roc a feLLa......we need u....7 albums kid....that was the deal
and that contract might be still standing''

XXL-so that means your gonna do another album ???

JAY-i dont know......my thing is...if it's nothing extraordinary...then why do it??
...it would be a great thing 4 hiphop.




yo

its almost like he's playin with our heads or some shyt
so what yall think ?????

yall think the ''president'' gon step outta the building 2 do ''one more'' job ???

yeah im thinking hes gonna release another one..hes a guest on alomost every remix and he keeps doing all these special concerts..so he obviously misses it

I think he's gonna drop somethin'

didn't he do 7 albums already?

1. In my life time Vol. 1
2. Vol.2 Hard Knock Life
3. Vol.3 Life & Times of S. Carter
4. Dynasty
5. Blueprint
6. Blueprint 2
7. The Black Album

I would HOPE SO!! Hip Hop is making a comeback slowly but surely and I'd think he would like to take part in that movement...not just from a Presidents standpoint.



.... ....

hip hop never left what u talkin bout willis?

see??

thats exactly what im talkin bout.......jay be playin alotta mindgames
but u gotta love him 4 it tho.......he knows how 2 keep the ppl interested
....i was never no big jay-z fan....but after him makin a quote like that
he definitely got my attention

Dynasty never counted as a SOLO JOINT. If that was the case then he'd have over 7 because you got Best of Both Worlds and the sequel to that....plus The Unplugged Album.


.... ....


I said that refering to the way Hip Hop was dying thru the abundance of wack ass rappers and groups bringing it down. Now there are people coming back, making hot ass albums, and branching out...so that's what I mean by coming back. Never meant that it left....but it was slowly being killed.



.... ....

The Dynasty was like a solo album, Jay did most of the shit on there, but that CD is what put me on to beans.

It was "LIKE" one but it wasn't a solo album. On the album cover itself doesn't it say either Rocafella presents or Jay-Z presents....the dynasty?

Not near mine but I coulda swore it does.

It was a group effort album: Hov, Beans, MBleek, and Amil
.... ....

hip hop was never dying

sugarhill gang werent lyrical rappers sooooooo how come they are considered hip hop and D4L isnt?

Tru, I forgot who said it but the quote was "todays rap fan is tomorrows rap critic". The beastie Boys did alot for hip hop and I think them niggaz is wack, Eminem did alot for hip hop and people now a dayz think he's wack, D4L and DFB are popular now and we think they wack. The saga continues......

Tha game dont need Jay.. Itd be nice for him to drop another album, but hope he dont think tha game "needs him", cause it dont......

I dont belive for ONE FUCKIN SECOND that RD was gonna be his only album. That bullshit.

"Why put something out if it not going to be extrodinary"????

NEGRO......P L E A S E............

He put out an album every year. Each had like, 3 great songz. Tonz of fillerz....

If he'd just waited 2 yearz between albumz, he could have made sum CLASSIC albumz, instead of rushin an album every single year....

Blueprint, RD and Hard Knock Life were classics...But tha otherz were not..

he did NOT have 3 classics

he has only had 2 at the most but not even. i dont consider blueprint a classic because he bit too many ppl on that album.

RD is the only one i would consider close

OK, I agree.......If he'd just waited 2 get 1 tight album together, he coulda had more classicz....

I hope so, people can say whatever they want bout Jay but one thing for sure he makes good music, and at the end of the day thats what its all about!

i always try my best 2 feel and understand u
but then u always turn around and say something stupid


what the fukk does that old ass group have 2 do with this conversation ????

Today's rap fan is tomorrows rap critic....came from Little Brother.


I never said any names...all I said was abundance of wack people and y'all started tthrowin names under the bus.

People might feel the approach Em has now is wack, but his talent has never been or will be wack.

I'm talkin bout people that are wack from beginning to end. Period.

Y'all act like you don't know what I'm talkin bout. Maybe for the sake of argument just to disagree...but y'all know what I'm sayin.


Back to the thread topic.

.... ....

nothin but he said they werent hip hop so i called him out on it on how ppl are hypocrits.

the old groups were not lyrical yet the get mad at the groups today who arent lyrical and say they arent hip hop. its a hypocracy


but yeah jay-z be gettin on my nerves these days tho all he does is brag in every track

it aint all about being lyrical tho sometimes

i think it all depends on who u r as a person as 2 how
the ppl or the hiphop fans perceive u

its about influence....period
look at ol dirty bastard.......didnt have no real lyrical ability 2 me
but his character was so lovable...respectable and real....u had no choice but 2 embrace him
master p.....not lyrical....but ppl respect what he's done 4 hiphop and the south

u know what im sayin????

so i dunno man......alotta the times it be havin something 2 do
with how a nigga carry hisself.....and how he touches the hearts of the ppl


look at mr-shakur......wasnt the most lyrical cat

but he's the ''hiphop jesus''.....the ''black elvis''

nothin but he said they werent hip hop so i called him out on it on how ppl are hypocrits.

the old groups were not lyrical yet the get mad at the groups today who arent lyrical and say they arent hip hop. its a hypocracy


but yeah jay-z be gettin on my nerves these days tho all he does is brag in every track

yea......he be addin shyt
that aint got nuthin 2 do with the argument
......he be pullin stuff outta nowhere

i was speaking generally just like u did.

u said hip hop was coming back (meaning it must be absent) when ppl like D4L are very much present. the south is representing hip hop right now chea

Whatever Bone. I just hope you know what you just said makes no sense at all. How can you be speaking GENERALLY when you SPECIFICALLY NAME NAMES???

Also, I clearly explained what I meant by Hip Hop coming back...and I didn't say it must have been absent. I know everyone here knows how to read..or at least match things together, and what you're saying JUST HAPPENS TO BE THE 1ST TIME IT'S BEEN SAID...yet you sayin others(me) are saying these things. LMAO


And call yourself callin someone out and sayin hypocrite. You silly cuzin.



.... ....

i dont feel like responding right now but i gotcha

I read an interview before The Black Album came out, that
had Jay-Z talking about he wasn't gonna promote this album at all.
Basically the original idea for The Black Album was no video, no
single, no promotion, just release and see how it does. I was mad
when I saw that "Chang Clothes" video. He coulda gone out a lot
better then that. And if he drops another album, I hope that's how
he releases it.

Yeah I heard and read that same thing Chris. He should do it that way....it would go Plat wit NO PROMO AT ALL and that in itself would be unprecedented.


.... ....

JAY IS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME. BESIDES BIG AND PAC ,BUT HE RUNS NEW YORK

"he has only had 2 at the most but not even" ???? wtf is that supposed to mean??? You're just a Jay hater and need to GET YOUR OWN!!! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

Reasonable Doubt is a classic boi, not "close to a classic" ask anybody who knows hip hop dumbass

ur a dumb ass dickrider shut the fuck up stupid ass

of course a new album is coming..he has tracks out everyone haven't heard with dre and premo

damn, i gotta go wit bone again, but i dont feelin like teachin niggas right now, if yall want to believe in "real hip hop" n keep an ignant mind then fuck it believe in that shit...

oh n jigga is hella tight...

If he doesn't drop another album this year then i think you can all wrap up the "one more album" talk

i know jay WANTS to put out another album, but i don't think he should

just think jordan when he was president and also a player for the wizards....look where that got him


stay leaving the game on top like elway.

SON, YOU NEEDA TAKE YOUR FUCKIN MEDS TODAY....

AND BY ALL MEANZ, REFILL YOUR PERSCRIPTION............I AINT PLAYIN......

Wow intelligent comeback....maybe u need to hit the books again kid and do some research.........I really expected something a little more intellectual from you, but you have no valid argument so u have to resort to name calling


Reasonable Doubt = Classic
Blueprint = Classic
Black Album = Classic
Vol 2 = Classic

Vol 1 = damn near classic

etc etc etc.........oh and I can guarantee "8th Wonder" or whatever he chooses to call it will be .........
CERTIFIED CLASSIC / MULTIPLE TIMES Platinum and will feature a song by your boy and Hova's disciple, Mr. Nasir Jones!!!!!!

You just proved to the board that ur a dickrider

lmao@The Black Album and Vol. 2 being classic. Good one.
