Jay-Z - The Blueprint

Don't Kanye's productions just sound better when he's not rapping over them? There's not much I can say about this one that hasn't been said before. The tracks powered by soul samples give the album a relaxed vibe, which makes Jay-Z's raps seem less like boasting and more like he's just stating fact. It's a victory lap, but it's focused as though there was something left to prove.
