[Blog] Jay-Z Breaks Down The Blueprint 3 Album Cover
by on August 4th, 2009
"These things are like the forgotten pieces in hip-hop. It's still about music. It's not about radio, making gimmicks — it's still about making music. Those things are piled in the corner. These are the forgotten things about music. It's still about music. It's not about radio, it's not about making gimmicks, it's about music. The three stripes that everybody is asking about is made from the original [number] three. The first three they made on the wall was someone carving. If you look at [the number] 3, all they did was connect lines. The whole thing about this album, how I approached it, is that I wanted to make a new classic to start that all over again — to go back to making classic albums like the ones we grew up listening to." -Jay-Z

ill pass on this album Jay-Z jus ain’t the same no more
That is what the fuck I’m talking about.. I can’t wait until this auto-tune infused pop that we’ve been forced to call Hip-Hop dies out; because of the fact that the artists who deserve to shine don’t get any, and the rappers that don’t deserve shine bask in the glory. It’s a shame because most the artists that formed this new era are often called ‘The GOAT’ or ‘Best Rapper Alive’, when in all honesty they don’t even hold a candle to the pioneers that birthed this music genre… smdh at what Hip-Hop has become.
how can you believe that after hearin that wacc ass “run this town” song
don’t let jayz fool you
Reasonable Doubt=Classic
Blueprint=Classic
The Black Album= Classic
*Honorable Mention: American Gangster(Great Cd, Classic IDk!)
and Blueprint 2( IMO the most underrated and slept-on CD in recent history!)
JAY -Z I BET ANYONE IF HIP HOPS LIVING LEGENDS WAS TO START OFF WITH JAY 10 TIMES OUT OF 10 THEY WOULDNT NOT GET ANY SHINE, I FEEL SORRY FOR J.COLE, I HEARD HE IS PREETY HOT TO.IF DAME DASH WAS STILL THIER EVERYBODY WOULD SHINE, ROCAFELL HAD A FUCKING ARMY OF B+ ARTISTS WHERE ARE THEY AT NOW LOOK AT M.O.P
SO PLEASE GET OFF THE TIP OF JAY-Z"S DICK PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some niggas you just cant market…you can not force the public to buy something they dont want. M.O.P. will not move any units because no one but hardcore hip hop heads will fuck with these guys. Not in even 50 cent could help M.O.P. Kanye is the type of nigga that went out and marketed himself and didn’t wait for the label do it. Beans that’s my motherfuckin dude but that nigga got issues.
Nicole Wray??? Since when she was fucking with the ROC. I thought she was Missy Elliott’s artist.
Maaaan…I asked you several questions…can I get an answer?
I honestly think Jay-Z has more haters then Lil Wayne at this point. He’s only given us consistent good music, bought out Kanye, Ne-Yo, RIhanna, Jeezy, and Rick Ross to name a few but YET people will say he didn’t promote Freeway and didn’t let Joe Budden come out. He’s the GREATEST RAPPER EVER just off the fact you go by total body of work and consistency. I will say that him approching 40 its taking away from his credibility but we need to appreciate him for who he and what he’s given hip-hop.
If these so-called other artist who’s he’s supposedly holding back were better they would’ve found a way to get they’re shine.
-words from Tha Mogul (not a Jay-Z stan, just someone who appreciates good music)
The Cover is THE NEW CLASSIC ALBUMS which means the cover is the opposite of blue.
Classic this, Classic that.
Just release a good album, and if it’s great and stands the ‘test of time’, it’ll be called a classic without the rapper needing to declare it himself.
and not one cornball guest appearance?? I mean, other than drake.
Ye and No ID produced the whole joint??
I don’t remember ever being this excited over an album.
ooooo wait, Slaughterhouse in 6 days!!
interesting…
