Reasonable Doubt

@jordan_walker

So recently I've been doing a deep dive into Jay-Z's discography, and I decided to listen to the albums that came out before my time in the order they were released. I'm extremely happy I chose to do it in that order. Reasonable Doubt is a master class on rap and hip-hop. There's literally no skips from the opening track to the closer, 15 songs later. For this to be his debut album is an insane feat in itself. Everything from the production, the lyricism, word play, storytelling, shit just his overall confidence in his delivery, and so much more, is top tier, even now, 29 years later. Now I'm not done going through the rest of his early discography, but after this I understand why Jay-Z is considered one of the greatest to ever do it.
