Blueprint 3 Update Thread

[Nick Fury]

I wanna hear Jay spitting instead of a hundred or so guest features spread across an entire album.

Blueprint & The Black Album had minimal guest spots. What made those albums good was that it was Jay performing on his own on every track. He owned those songs.

Agreed. Jay does best when he's riding solo.

11 out of 15 is a lot of features. But it doesn't mean it's gonna be bad. Its just a lot of features.

i have to say. i love this tracklist. i just like the producers jay-z picked, and the features look promising. to say i'm excited for this album would be an under statement.
