American Gangster was Jay Z taking Reasonable Doubt and giving it a new production value. Like an independent movie director releasing a film before his prime with low budget and going back to that concept years later with a bigger production house and unlimited resources to re-release to a broader demographic. Brilliant album. From the production to the story arc. This was Jay-Z at his peak.
Looking back 5 years ago now. It's chilling to think that when this interview came out Taxstone may well have already murdered Banga, allegedly, He wasn't arrested until January 2017. When he said I won't do anything wrong to you apart from kill you, I totally believed him. Taxstone was a street dude who was definitely about what he talked about. It's a real shame to see where he's now at.
I feel what you're saying.. looks like Vlad initially posted this on 5/23/16.. the Irving Plaza incident was 5/25/16.. I'm sure Vlad does his interviews a few weeks to a month or so ahead of when he posts them, but either way the interview had to have been before the incident but probably not too far from when it happened. Very very wild and a shame for all.
ItzMinorr he said they would die with the chain on. u seem like an intelligent person, do u suppose he means they die of natural causes? because seeking revenge over a stolen chain is dumb as fuck, especially if u already know they consequence. truth these nuts
Clown shyt. Dude pulled s gun out a dude he said was a chump. A dude who didn't have no weapon. A dude who ended up taking the gun from him. So who's the real or fake 1
He keeping it real homie. Niggas don't understand how serious that copyright infringement is. When you selling knock off goods and bootleg CDs these corporations be out for blood because they also can sue you to. The FEDs/cops can seize anything that they can prove you bought with illegal money don't matter if you was selling dope or DVDs.
+K8 H I didn't say jail, I said prison. Prison is way harder and as far as the gay stuff you mentioned....well tax was a blood in jail and as a blood if your people find out you are doing gay stuff they have to kill you that is the rule....and he is not dead so I doubt he did gay stuff.
+Carlos Barrett jail prison same concept and i said i wasnt speaking about tax what I'm saying is if toddler toucher a diper diddler chomo does 8 years in prison anybody can being in prison dont make you real it makes you caught
+Kali HardHead jail is where you go when you are arrested or on trial. prison Is where you go when you are convicted. state prison is one of the worst places on earth. it ain't for the weak
Classics from this decade: Take care, My beautiful dark fantasy, Good kid maad city, Forest hill drive, nothing was the same, To pimp a butterfly and Watch the throne.
This is an old interview I've watched before and didn't realize how sad it is. Him saying crazy shit like this is why it's going to be really hard to prove his case. SMH people need to learn from this shit.
And a lot of Good/great albums Dynasty American Gangster Hardnock Vol. 1 Hardknock Vol 2. Blueprint 3 *Okay albums* Blueprint 2 Magna carta *Weak albums* Hardknock life vol. 3 Kingdom come
+Brian Taffany how so? seriously tell me where you're from. maybe you just can't relate? a lot of people wouldn't consider illmatic a classic nowadays but that's because they can't relate to it as well as someone who grew up during the 90s in new York.
Take care might be a classic but it might be too much singing for a rap album. & the fact that people are always talking about drake and bring him up every conversation goes to show you he's doing big things. I know about alleged ghostwriting but still
American Gangster is one of the greatest but most slept on albums ever. Shout out to Tax for having the balls to keep it real in his pod cast interviews and not be worried about the politics behind shit. #besafetho #beloved #befuddled
+Bmore24 t look at how many people Gucci put on compared to Scarface Gucci co signed everybody producers Djs,rappers etc the list goes on he's a legend and he never had a international single all his content was mixtape street shit but still has the respect both in the streets and the industry
Vlad: "You heard about the whole Fetty Wap chain situation"

Yea he is fosho
He is a great mind i miss him in the Podcast world

Lol... Dawg I thought he was gonna say he was a big time DRUG dealer.. Nigga talking bout mixtapes ...WTF!!!!
Yes, American Gangster is a CLASSIC Vlad
1. Reasonable Doubt
2. American Gangster
3. The Black Album
Runner up- The Blueprint
DOPEGAME J my favorite jay-z album, it’s basically like reasonable doubt vol.2
IMO black album is second because it came off like a reasonable doubt 2 where he explained his life from growing up
Hard knock life super classic....
This list is ridiculous
Reasonable doubt, American Gangster, Blueprint, Dynasty.
Yo I love Taxstone's explanations and philosophies on life. Mad simple. Ha!
Dont know why I like listening this bro
Honesty
Taxstone is real....can't be fake after going to prison for 8 years.
+K8 H I didn't say jail, I said prison. Prison is way harder and as far as the gay stuff you mentioned....well tax was a blood in jail and as a blood if your people find out you are doing gay stuff they have to kill you that is the rule....and he is not dead so I doubt he did gay stuff.

+Kali HardHead jail is where you go when you are arrested or on trial. prison Is where you go when you are convicted. state prison is one of the worst places on earth. it ain't for the weak

Here's my top Jay-Z
1.Reasonable Doubt

Reasonable doubt then blueprint my top 2. I've never given American gangster an opportunity though
Also the hidden tan album
I love Taxstone so much he's hilarious. I'm gagging in this library

Did Vlad just say he used to worry about the Feds kicking his door in because of his involvement in the “mix tape racket?”
The streets need Tax
For real!! 'Views' is not a classic album...
+Kid Ill I don't think anyone actually thinks that though
+Kid Ill Indeed
OGG Prince J cole isn't a classic artist because he doesn't have a classic.
If you count mixtapes, I think Friday Night Lights is a classic. If your basing that on albums, I agree.
+OGG Prince J Cole doesn't have anything close to being classic
“They fu**ing poets, beloved” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love his unbothered blank stare
It’s because he got shot in the face back in the day he can’t blank regularly
tax just be keeping it real for you
2020 this clip still iconic, to me at least 💯🖤 #freetax #besafetho

both of them are great albums but arent classics
+Brian Taffany what? goodkid is a certified classic. I'm not sure where you're from but it is here in the US.
+Shigdig look bro, im not saying that album is bad, its of a high standard but its just not a classic
+Brian Taffany how so? seriously tell me where you're from. maybe you just can't relate? a lot of people wouldn't consider illmatic a classic nowadays but that's because they can't relate to it as well as someone who grew up during the 90s in new York.
