American G was coo my bad i fr typed what you typed thinkin you meant KC but he was also him doing interview about his retirement. Magna was also his retirement album idk why the internet rorgot.
MCHG was never his retirement album
Exactly, an album with:
Cant be bad At the bottom of Jay discography, but not bad by any means
A lot of these records really didn't age well to me lol ducks
kanye executive producing that album s***s all over op's argument lol
it’s 50/50 and depends on what community you view the album from
It’s Jay’s superstar album and was a huge deal for the culture because it was the first time a rap artist hit as many #1s as Beatles / Rolling Stones type artists . Jay was one of the only pure rappers getting top 10 billboard songs at the time too
But the rap community mostly shunned the album for its inconsistent quality
Kanye being hands on with Jay’s most successful post-retirement album does hold weight in his claim
