"Do U Wanna Ride" had an amazing John Legend hook and some introspection on Jay's part. I'd say the album was a nice first step into getting back on the scene. The three songs I picked are the three songs I instantly loved and didn't need to let grow on me. I guess I'm trying to let you know I went to great lengths to enjoy this album. I took the 40 minute bus ride to Limeridge Mall and copped this album then had to wait till I got home to listen because I forgot my discman. I remember I didn't even get the "free" version before it was available to legally purchase. I obviously was very excited to have another proper JAY-Z album when the rumblings of Kingdom Come started. Kingdom Come (2006)/ AKA The 10th Best JAY-Z Album I don't care what you say, the song is all sorts of dope. we all win again! "Hola' Hovito" is classic JAY-Z and Timbaland. The song has two of the greatest on one track.

To Nas' credit I always wished Eminem's verse came earlier on "Renegade" but that doesn't matter. This was the album that made me go back and buy the albums I didn't already have on CD because "Takeover" made me realize Shawn Corey Carter is my favourite rapper. That meant it had a lot to live up to when I finally got my hands on it a week later. The Blueprint was the first time I went specifically for an album and something about the date Septemstopped me from actually getting the album the day it came out.

I got the first possible one which meant I had lunch at 10am and would always wait for the Future Shop to open and I'd browse the New Release section. So my high school had 4 periods for a possible lunch time. The Blueprint (2001)/ AKA The 2nd Best JAY-Z Album
