May 27, 2020Jay Z is really top 2 all time, Vol 1 is an excellent album, not saying it’s a classic though, but one can argue it over any of his his main top 5 (RD, Blueprint, AG, 4:44, Black Album)
Only tracks I see are weak are I Know What Girls Like, and Face Off, but I can easily see how someone could fw those tracks
May 27, 2020It’s defiantly 5th or 6th in his discog. Jay Z Should be top 5 for anyone who called themselves a hip hop fan tbh
May 27, 2020One can not argue over the top 5 its definitely the 6 best tho
May 27, 2020Facts, I been saying this. The highs are so high, a lot of my favorite Hov tracks are on this
May 27, 2020Face Off is a classic song too
May 27, 2020·editedVol. 1 was actually my first Jay-Z album. I chose it simply because I loved the bronze and white cover. Something very elegant about it. I was floored by Imaginary Player, Lucky Me, Who Ya Wit, Where I'm From, etc. Til this day it's my favorite Jay-Z album and probably the one I have the most nostalgia with and sentimental feelings for.
May 27, 2020·editedIt has some of his most iconic work on it for sure, and his best song Where I'm From. A lot of the beats have aged badly though.
"From where you can't put your vest away and say you'll wear it tomorrow, cause they day after they'll be sayin 'damn, I was just with him yesterday'"
May 27, 2020Easily top 5 album tbh a lot of people don’t rank it as high but I think it’s top 5 material. Vol 1 and 2 are classics to me
May 27, 2020Lucky Me is Lil Waynes favorite song he has 2 tattoos of it

May 27, 2020great record

First time I heard this was few days after I heard RD and I really felt the gap between them.
It still has some wonderful cuts that I love tho.
May 27, 2020an album with sunshine and girls like can't be called a classic

Volume 2 is a classic and better
May 27, 2020had some garbage songs but some of his best songs were on vol. 1. late 90s jay was something else when it came to arrogant braggadocio raps
