The Black Album [PA] by Jay-Z

Pros: GREAT ARTIST ALWAYS EXPECTS GREAT WORK !!!!
Cons: NONE!

This man is talented while others were putting out 1 album per year with an average of 3 good songs, I mean songs you would want to hear over and over again. This man put out like 2 albums or more like 1 1/2 per year which kept his fans wanting more! Its sad that this is his last album as a solo artist, but we all need a break, this disc is about the best work I've seen this artist do not one song is bad, all the beats are tight!Produced by a couple of people that until now have not really been put on the map so their hungry and their work is like nothing you ever heard before. And of course you got to have the neptunes what's a number one hit without them. But over all this CD is worth buying.

Pros: Some hot tracks on that shizzy
Cons: Not as much depth as I thought it should have had

Jay-Z is finally retiring (at least for now) and his final release, The Black Album, was good...but not great, at least to me. He had alot of catchy songs on there that got me sayin, damn, but at the same time that was only about half of them...or less. It really sucks that he's finally retiring because in my opinion, he's one of the greatest MCs but I guess my problem was that being a Jay-Z fan, I expected a little more heart and depth into the final one. Pretty good overall though.

Pros: amazing
Cons: .......

I don't know what the hell is wrong wit y'all haters.Look no matter how hard you advertised if u don't have a good material u can't sell alright.he is real if u know you have the best stuff in the game, u cant just sit back and expect sales you do commercialism.What more can he tell you.No body is as good as him as an emcee and i just wanna tell y'all that he should be number one on everybody lips.listen to this album and give your criticism but look haters this album is a classic all the tracks are hot and meaningful.who in the game after seven years is still as hot as him nobody don't be confused by these young emcees haters see value, see consistency in a career and shut your holes dudes.
