Jay-Z - Black Album

[Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly]

BTW, I don't hate Jay-Z, he just pisses me off sometimes.

Now, Jay-Z with Dan the Automator: THAT I would buy...

[Guest Crucifixio Jones]

Come on, give Rick Rubin his props.  He was THE MAN behind Def Jam's early and best classics.  I'm sure if Jay tapped him to do a beat, it's hot.  Too bad he didn't get in contact with Marley Marl or Pete Rock.

Granted, but he's hardly the force he was over a decade ago.

So because has fallen outta the public eye he can no longer make a hot beat? Consider this his semi-comeback.
