    I'm leaning towards:

    RD>Vol.3>Dynasty>Vol.2>Vol.1

    I've been sleeping on Vol.3 for years, I didnt pay attention to how good Jay was on there.

    In terms of intros:
    • Can't Knock the Hustle
    • A Million to One Questions / Rhyme No More
    • Dynasty Intro
    • Hova Song
    • Hand It Down

    Favourite tracks from Dynasty:
    • Intro
    • I Just Wanna Love U (Give It 2 Me)
    • Streets is Talking
    • This Can't Be Life (brilliant beat, classic Ye production and verses from Jay, Beans and Scarface)
    • Get Your Mind Right Mami (great rap/rnb song, enjoyed Snoop's verse)
    • You, Me, Him & Her
    • Guilty Until Proven Innocent (funky beat and R. Kelly is nice)
    • Parking Lot Pimpin'
    • 1-900-Hustler
    • Soon You'll Understand
    • Where Have You Been? (:mjcry:)
    Really love the sounds on this album, really of it's era and I love Just Blaze's production. Would rank it 2nd to Reasonable Doubt so far into his discography. Jay also with some of his most introspective songs. :wow2:

    Current album rankings:
    • Reasonable Doubt
    • The Dynasty: Roc La Familia
    • Vol. 2... Hard Knock Life
    • Vol. 3... Life and Times of S. Carter
    • In My Lifetime, Vol. 1
