"Jay-Z is one of those cats where a lot of his shit is timeless. I remember when 'Big Pimpin'' was out. That's when I was a Pimp C lover, no homo. That's when Roc-A-Fella had it. That's when shit was live."

""Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell. I actually just started reading it - I'm telling you a good book to read I haven't finished people! Jay Z actually recommended that I read it - it gives you a lot of life lessons. In any business there are certain principles that would work in every walk of life and will help you.""

Rolling Stone's 250th greatest album of all time
Fairly tedious hip hop debut by Jay-Z. Most of the lyrics are about making money (legally or otherwise) or spending it. Most songs include lists of designer labels, Cristal etc etc. I think this set the mentality for the next generation of rappers, and while there is at one point a note that "crime is bad", it is fairly well hidden and the rest of the album does somewhat glorify crime and set the goal in life as being "having things".
