.. :: Jay-Z Strikes Back :: ..

Jay-Z released his with "The Blueprint" to 2001 sixth studio album, which was probably the best even after his glamorous debut. Although Jay-Z at the time was around the turn of the century one of the most producing rappers, he managed to come back with this album, because he had not necessarily overwhelmed with its "Lifetime" series with fame. "The Blueprint" has one to offer as opposed to his predecessors, above all, honesty. But not only that is what made his 6th studio album one of the best of his long career. Especially variety is one thing that you can try here than on any other hip-hop album. Here proves the Hustler Hustler all especially that he can see something unspectacular subjects like money and cars. But in addition to abundant introspection in the mix of good mid-tempo numbers and standard Radioburnern can convince fully especially the beats of, among others, hit producer like Timbaland, Just Blaze and Kanye West. Even Eminem controls here at with "Renegade" a fat beat, which also still is one of the best of the whole album. Nevertheless the track is in no way ran on the original, even if the performance of Jigga and Shady is quite good. Eminem is also the only guest on "The Blueprint". Another notable track would definitely be "taking over" the blaze could be the Beef with its current homie Nas again. A Classic! "Song Cry", however, is one of the mid-tempo tracks previously mentioned. Jigga raps simply ingenious and displays over standard numbers like "Izzo" and "Girls, Girls, Girls" once again his versatility. Just great! "Hola 'Hovito" is probably one of the few zubezeichnen Club Banger. The Timbaland-beat can as always on full convince Strecker and Jay-Z as so often presents itself in top form. Thus would be a recommendation of "The Blueprint" anything but wrong.
