Reasonable Doubt is one of my favorite albums of all times! I was in the streets when I first heard this album. 17 years old in 2008. Servin fiends, doing all sorts of wild shit! I always had a love for music – all types, but when I heard Reasonable Doubt I was blown away! The album is so raw it’s insane! Jay tapped into feelings and emotions only a hustler would know!

“Jay Z’s Reasonable Doubt wasn’t instantly crowned a rap classic when it was released 20 years ago on June, 25 1996— it took some time. But now, two decades later, Hov’s debut album is widely considered one of hip-hop’s greatest works.

Meet Biggs, who, along with Jay and Damon Dash started Roc-A-Fella Records, the independent label where Hov released Reasonable Doubt and set the foundation for a two decade long career which includes just as many rap accolades as it does business benchmarks.”
