Reasonable Doubt is definitely the best Jay-Z album but, like, even David Duke agrees with that.

"Album" implies the full-length product with multiple records on it.
I think you might have to be over 30 to remember when that was common parlance.
Maybe more music critics should be not-really-a-music-critic music critics. or something..
This is a massive understatement.

chronic 2001 is boring...the beats are kinda 'eh', although it starts out really good and then dies after "The Next Episode".
for Jay-Z, I like Hard Knock Life, but it has filler and isn't anywhere near as good as Reasonable Doubt, Blueprint, or even The Black Album. I think it's high point is "A Week Ago" with Too Short.

I was a huge fan of the Wyclef album, and it's a shame he's so maligned by the hipsterati. The Carnival is an eclectic and fascinating record.So is anyone inclined to post their OWN top 25 hip-hop albums?

so quaint to see him using terms as tame as 'hipsterati' back then
