the albums with R. Kelly are mostly shit. Yes. But there's at least a handful of tracks between them worth hearing haha.
I actually really liked Blueprint 3 honestly. I mean "NY State of Mind" got kind of too much. And "Venus Vs Mars" and "Everyday a Star is Born" are kind of embarrassingly throwaway lyrics. But the rest of that record is pretty incredible.
oh and good call on "Success." What an opening: "I used to give a fuck / now I give a fuck less / what do I think of success? / it sucks, too much stress."
American Gangster is so probably my favorite Jay album so it's hard for me to really decide on a favorite track there.
oh and as far as Cam goes, Purple Haze is a total masterpiece.
