The-Blueprint

The New York City mayor recalled a clean version of 'The Blueprint' being the first album he was given.

With nearly 135,000 seats sold across three sold-out nights, the JAY-Z30 celebration prompted the eternal question: which album is the greatest?

Hov's set lists stretch across his legendary catalogue and those of his peers.

The show sold 45,832 tickets, surpassing the record set just the night before.

The surprise appearance reunited the two to perform the 2001 album’s only collaboration.

Brooklyn Public Library will release a free JAY-Z30 limited-edition card honoring 'Reasonable Doubt' and 'The Blueprint.'

The added July 12 date extends JAY-Z’s run at Yankee Stadium following overwhelming demand.

The 2001 track from Jay ultimately resulted in Nas releasing his classic "Ether" diss later that year.

Hip-Hop fans have spent years discussing the rumor that Michael Jackson had delivered vocals on Jay-Z's The Blueprint standout "Girls, Girls, Girls."

Memphis Bleek shared his thoughts on the years-old debate about whether Eminem actually washed Jay-Z on his own "Renegade" record back in 2001.

Multi-hyphenate hip-hop mogul Jermaine Dupri has a lot of claims to fame, and now he’s speaking on how his act Kris Kross had a major impact on hip-hop fashion.

Kanye West called Just Blaze a "copycat" during his recent appearance on 'Drink Champs': "Look where I’m at today and look where he at today."

A lengthy MC Serch interview on 'Drink Champs' took a turn to Hov when N.O.R.E. mentioned Jay calling out Serch on his “Takeover” diss on 'The Blueprint.'

In hindsight, there are a lot of people that will put JAY-Z's "Takeover" ahead of Nas' "Ether." But when it dropped, it was hard to say Hov won the battle.
