Album of The Year Day#10

LCN vs Jay-Z

BP3....

LCN easily

LCN quite easily.

BP3 - I ain't heard the other one

Until I hear LCN, Jay is winning going away!

man, you guys need to get on that LCN, its dope.

that jay was wack, only 4 tracks worth listening to.

I'm bout to download LCN, I hope it's as dope as you guys say it is.

That said, I'm voting for it over BP3 because I dislike that album save for a few tracks.

yes, thank god you said that. most old jay fans for some reason cant say anything bad about the guy but this album was extremely bad. kj is not as bad as i thought he was. but i dont know if you well like lcn, its dope but maybe not your style. check out that track with bun b though its dope as fuck

^ i agree with you two since i listened to the Jay album ive only really played like 3-5 tracks from it with any replay value and the best track arguably (Empire State of Mind) is getting played so much EVERYWHERE its starting to get played out

Yeah initially I rated BP3 3.5 stars because I really like A Star Is Born, DOA, and Empire State Of Mind. But now I'd probably rate it lower because those songs and occasionally Reminder are the only ones I find myself spinning on the album.

I love Jay, but that album has more filler than a Hostess cupcake. The only joints by him that rate lower are Kingdome Come and the god-awful BP2.

I'm listening to LCN as we speak. So far I like it. The production is definitely top notch.

Empire state of mind and doa are great tracks play them all the time but the rest i could spin once and tried again and could do it

Blueprint 3 was hardly a bad album...smh

it reminds me of Survival Skills in that it is not by any means a classic, but Jay came correct on it just like Buck and Kris did....decent beats on BP3 as well as the subject matter and lyrics by Jay gives that album top rank for me in 2009!

By the way I can NOT listen to any of your opinions on these albums Cory...you always sound like a whining child man...lol...REAL talk

"I can't stand this album because the drums they used were wack"

or

"All the old heads always say this album is better or that album is better but my album is the BEST"

LMAO!

Cory please shut up man....nuff respect!

BP3 is your AOTY Powell??? Wow!!

You're entitled to your opinion, but damn that album doesn't even crack my Top 15 for 2009 and I'm a Jay fan.

Have you heard Skyzoo's album The Salvation? If not then you should check it out. As hard as you are to please when it comes to post-2000 MC's, I think you'd even like it.

Haven't heard either. Don't really care if I ever hear the Jay-Z, but I plan to check that new LCN since a friend burned a copy for me...

i didnt say either of those things. looks like i got my new person to fight with first it was KJ in every thread now i can go at powell.

lol

Lol, Cory, you and Powell have been going at it since I can remember

Nah, he just started going at Powell (or actually the other way around, LOL). Before he went at me and Kev. He still goes at Kev on occasion.

Other than Cory being a Nas hater, I have no problems with him.

Nooooo. Before you came around Amazon, they were after each other... lol

Yeah when i first came to amazon me and powell had some fights about age and shit. Then we were friends until he started talking about Dr Dre and i felt differently. We started fighting on that and he gave me the name The Genius. then it was good again, so just a few little things here and there.

Nah BP3 is not my AOTY man...I just meant that the album was a top ranked album for me for 2009...

I have Survival Skills ahead of it as well as Grand Puba, and probably Jadakiss too (or at least even with it)...the UGK For Life is about even with it as well...I got mad love for Pimp C man (RIP)...I loved X-Clan- Mainstream Outlawz as well and also Alchemist too, and I like the Ghostface joint too, Salvation was good as well..so no BP3 is not my AOTY but it is a top ranked album for me though

Oh ok. My AOTY's are Salvation, Survival Skills, Street Hop, Padded Room, and OB4CL2. Not necessarily in that order.

Actually, Powell, if you liked Alchemist you might like stuff like LCN. I rarely see you big up more hard edged shit but if you can dig it you'd like the LCN for sure. Same with you KJ.

And Al, I thought Ill Bill was one of your favorite new school mc's?
