Jay been saying his first album was slept on. But did folks really get hip to it when vol 1 dropped?

This is probably the second time I have ever agreed with you; I feel sick to my stomach now.i wasn't you b, don't extrapolate my music with what you thought was too young for you.
i got every Source Mag from 1994 to present day.
newflash b, Jay-z wasn't a big deal till 1998.
Hard Knock life Vol. 2 to be exact, and even then he played second fiddle to DMX.
1996 was too crowded for Jay-Z to make a impact, you seen 1996 line up for rap release dates? its probably da best da genre ever had..EVER.
all these albums i had when they first came out.
no one is saying reasonable doubt is trash (its a poor man's Only Built For Cuban Linx but thats another topic) all we're saying is Reasonable Doubt was da Jordan IX olives in 1994 & 2001....no one bought em, and it took years to go by for people to actually respect em. thats all.

I have always said no rap artist benefited from the death of Big & Pac more than Jay. Once they were gone, the field was completely open for him to skyrocket.

You could buy Reasonable Doubt at any Wherehouse music store it was always like 5 copies or more in the used section!!!
Same cant be said about Nas, Pac or Outkast etc.. you had to cop those at regular price !
No knock to jayz he was more word of mouth purchases and Nas if i ruled the world was smashing all jayzs singles at that point.

Let this be a lesson to you dudes out there.......life (rap career's) are a marathon and NOT a race. It's not about how fast you start coming out of the gates but how and where you finish the race at. Safe to say that Jay finished the race at #1 and in a much better position then the rest of his competitors.
"The reason why we lead the pack this a marathon......you start off FAST then you wheezing in the back"

LOL
Nas is still here and expanding his ventures.
I mean as far as his rap stock that had nothing to do with separate street **** going on but I see what you're saying there.You call this "EXPANDING VENTURES" champ??

Not sure how you roll but being a wanted man by the IRS is not putting yourself in a good position champ.
Also in regards to Mase.....I wouldn't call getting chased out of New York (literally) voluntarily falling back but if YOU do more power to you.
