I don’t agree with Rae > Nas. But I’ve heard the argument above before, and I think its kind of asinie. The LP was billed as “featuring Ghostface Killer”. It was never intended to be seen as a solo album in the traditonal sense.

Co-sign the first point. While I wouldnt call RD overrated because it really is a great album, jay was still not a fully formed artist on that. It’s kind of derivitive. A mash up of Rae, BIG, and Camp Lo. JayZ didnt become the JayZ we know and love (ll) until Hard Knock Life.

I think that going back to different peoples opinion is key in the classic debate.
Sometimes you need to hear a certain album at a certain time and it hits home like nothing else.
BP1 needed to come out when it did. It was like the fruition of all the wannabe hustlers tryin to make it. b-ease Says:

But Loon was a goon to rappers like Big L & Mase.
I saw him start play fighting with a kid until it ended with him just delivering rib shattering blows while the kid tried to cover up as best he could. My man Mike had the busted lip and everything, walked off looking sick.
And Chauncey just laughed at him.
August 12th, 2010 at 12:14 pm
Reasonable Doubt is not overrated. But Jay did spend a few years convincing people how classic it was in his songs. He made a lot of people go back and listen again.

^^My nigga just did this shit last month, went to court for child support, denounced all his rights under his American name and presented the courts with his new “sovereign” name..judge pushed his next court date back like 2 months.

The fact that Harlem snuffs out its own is just fucked up. Niggas from the Chi will never touch its forerunners. That shit is a shame.
August 12th, 2010 at 12:21 pm
As many as 300,000 people identify as sovereign citizens, the Southern Poverty Law Center found in a study to be published Thursday that was obtained by The Associated Press. Hate group monitors say their numbers have increased thanks to the recession, the foreclosure crisis, the growth of the Internet and the election of Barack Obama in 2008.
Adherents expect the current American system of government to end one way or another.
“I’m the Patrick Henry of the 21st century. I’m here to regain our freedom,” James McBride said in a jailhouse interview. “I’m going to, or die trying.”
At the heart of their belief system: The government creates a secret identity for each citizen at birth, a “straw man,” that controls an account at the U.S. Treasury used as collateral for foreign debt. File enough documents at the right offices and the money in those accounts can be used to pay off debt or make purchases worth thousands of dollars.
Jim Jarvis, Ohio coordinator for the Restore America Plan, believes the country has lacked a legitimate government since Congress failed to adjourn properly in 1861.
The people who are crazy, he says, are those who won’t do the research to find out what’s really going on in the country.
The sovereign citizen movement has grown to about 100,000 hard-core believers, the SPLC report estimates, and 200,000 people trying out the theories by “resisting everything from speeding tickets to drug charges.”
Many of these “free” citizens refer to themselves as “Fourteen Amendment Citizens.” They believe the 14th Amendment created a new class of people who had no constitutional rights but were instead slaves to the government, according to Mark Pitcavage, investigative researcher for the Anti-Defamation League.

word. i disagree that he’s almost trash, but its well noted and accepted that Premo’s beats >>> Guru lyrics. thats why i don’t get it when people get aggy if you say Rick Ross’ beats >> his lyrics.

elfeces the that sovereign shit don’t hold up in a court of law..
I seen a case where the judge got so frustrated with this Moor cat, he threw the book at him.
^^Yea my homie a new Moor too..the elder moors schooled him on how to do it, he got so called “diplomat” ID’s and shit now..I laughed at him heartily..till he came back from court smiling. He had owed child support like 6g’s due that same day.
Said the judge was fucked up when he presented himself under his sovereign name and denounced all his debts under his American name.

GURU wasnt high profile…
Premo’s beats were…
Scooby Doo and Deputy Dawg could have had hits rhyming over Premo beats when he was in his prime..
Guru dropped mad 5% jewels, but he was almost trash as an Mc..
***LOL @ Scooby Doo and Deputy Dawg, i.e. “Group Home”….disagree on Guru being borderline trash, though…that nigga had a distinct monotone and insightful lyrics, that perfectly accompanied Premo’s beats, rather than being eclipsed by them- Gangstarr was a perfect yin/yang balance and chemistry…IMO, “Daily Operation” is a masterpiece….

My man from the Chi maintains to this day that Kanye was thrown thru a plate glass window when he started bubbling. I’ve also heard that Twista was getting extorted heavy back in the day.
^Nope. Twista was pushing heavy on the west side. Nigga don’t have goons, he got worshippers to this day for his block movement. The Kanye story was made up by some local who said he gave Jay “Never Change” when he and Kanye had already did a version of it. Lupe, for some reason, has a goon squad(I never understood why or how) as well.

If anyone actually compiled a list of best rap albums of the 00s from as many heads as they could Blueprint would easily get the #1 spot.
There’s not even a clear cut #2. Maybe Supreme Clientele, or at least IMO Late Registration.
Most heads under 30 would put Blueprint near the top. One of those rare records that gets respect from heads and pop fans alike.

Aside from the BP3 comment, I agree.
RAWSE made a dope record and the best of the year *maybe* [wait for Yeezy]. But at it’s very core it’s a retro album conceptually, and on half of the tracks musically, too. Those records never fare well in history unless they usher a return to that style, which TD obviously will not.
TML will definitely be remembered in 10 years. Even if Drake goes back to acting, he was an important figure in music for 2 years. Rappers would kill [not just in song] for a Drake hook, and he goes against the model of rising star before him, as far as how he hit big.

I think International law designates a few original tribes, aboriginals etc as sovereign people. Not subject to certain laws of formed governments. I can see how it could fuck a judge up tho…but all you need is one judge to side with you.
