AisosaI think you underestimate what self-reflection is.
It's facing and expressing uncomfortable truths about yourself.
Jay Z is an excellent poet, but his appeal is that he paints more vivid pictures than the average dope boy turned millionaire.
I'll ask this again, what has Jay Z revealed to you about himself that doesn't paint him a good/sympathetic light?
H to the Izzo last verse one of the most self reflective verses ever made

How is that a problem?
May 29·1 replyHonestly never got why people urge Drake to drop a 4:44 when Jay Z was in his 40s talking about spilling ace on his Jordan’s in the club and bragging about icing out Rolexes all on WTT

May 29·1 replyAisosaIf a Morgan Wallen album continues to be consistently listened to by a large number of people 5-plus years after its release, then it's definitely a classic.
Your opinion about him sadly isn't weighty enough to overcome that particular metric.
I disagree but I won’t argue your opinion bro.

May 29·1 replyNas & Em never made me feel what 4:44 did so thats the big deal lol

May 29·1 replyOne of the best rap albums I've ever heard and popularised this wave of rappers dropping "therapy" albums. I can't imagine enjoying rap and not appreciating this album at least just in terms of that

It didn't though? That was Recovery.

Just because he did it first doesn’t mean he’s the one who inspired people to do it
Don’t think I’ve ever heard a single rapper list that album as inspiration

I said popularised, not started. Nobody looking at washed 2010s Eminem for inspiration
