  • @DaTT78
    @DaTT78 8 лет назад +5

    Mr. McCrudden, I do believe that Jay-Z's first album was sold out of the trunk of his car, but it certainly was NOT Reasonable Doubt. There is an underground album out there before Reasonable, the song "I Can't Get With That" is long before Reasonable Doubt. Pick up his movie "Streets is Watchin'", he explains it there.

    • @tfromcali89
      @tfromcali89 3 года назад +1

      Yeah he forgot to mention that. I can’t get with that was released in 94 and he was under Kane’s wing at the time. So he flowed a little like Das EFX and the Fu Schnickens. He was in rap battles with LL and Kane before he came to be the boss and rapper that many know him as.
