I've been diggin' on the Blueprint a lot lately, so I watched the making of J-Hova's first record: Reasonable Doubt.
After watching it I popped on Amazon and ordered four more cd's. Homeboy's one of the best. Hov>Nas (and I like Nasty Nas). Illmatic is amazing, but I think the Jiggaman has him beat from a career perspective. For sure.
Anyway, I've seen a ton of these "Classic Album" docs. They're an hour long. Most stream on Netflix or you can find em on youtube in their entirety. I dig the series. This one was a bit different because they don't often delve into albums that aren't made with organic instruments. You've got a lot of Jay-Z interview footage mixed with the Producers who cut the tracks on Reasonable Doubt. There's a couple other dudes weighing in with their 2 cents and some insight. It's cool. It flows well. But Jigga flows better.
If you like rap, watch it. If not, fuck it, there's no point. Word.
