    Yeah I should have said post retirement Hov. honestly everything post retirement imo is just Jay-Z enjoying and having a blast with this rap s---. Not like he really has anything to prove anyways but hopefully we get one great album post 2003 to prove that he truly still has it. WTT was pretty d--- nice though

    KC was kind of a let down but I love his work with Dre on it. Lost ones is amazing

    Ag is a top 3 jay album and my personal favourite (close with BP)

    Bp3/mchg are good but jay can do better

    Wtt is a classic imo

    don't know what I was thinking but I kinda disliked WTT at first. absolutely love it now

    my top 3 hov is the basic holy trinity of RD BP1 and tBA so im a basic b----

    again i really need to relisten to AG

    wish the intro to the dynasty was on an actual Jay album though

    ToPimpABornSinner I resent lack of ingenuity.

    I feel like WTT is one that can't simply be judged on the first listen
    The only bad thing on WTT is Swizz Beatz' presence on "Welcome to the Jungle" tho

    Only things about WTT I didn't like are made in america and the lack off actual verses on Lift Off. Other than that it's perfect for me. Sure it has flaws (jays who gon stop me verse etc) and I think one of the best songs isn't on it (The Joy) but I love it the way it is.

    I wish @Swizz and @WPG review was still available to read. And swizz review of the HAM performance is a classic too

    Don't forget about Kanye's verse on "H•A•M•".He ends strong tho
    He sounds like he's rapping lyrics he just used as a placeholder on the notepad until he would write something better.

    honestly 2k13 kinda ruined the really hot HAM beat for me, and those verses don't make coming back to the track any easier

    This is such a phenomenal track. Production alone takes it to a 9/10 and hov displays charisma of n----s half his age
