    Idk if I agree. It’s hard to explain but his flow and verbal dexterity was soooo godly then. His recent material has that pedestrian middle aged rich guy cadence. If that makes sense- he’s still capable

    I do think Volume 3 and Dynasty captured the height of JayZ's swag. The Black Album is great on a new musical level with production and beats.

    I've not listened to the albums between Reasonable Doubt and Blueprint. I really need to remedy this.

    Wayne has too much music which kinda brings his catalog 'down' but prime wayne is definitely top 3.

    Jay doesn't put out music he isn't confident about (except maybe the kelly collab lol)
