Ep.87 - Jay-Z, Part 1 - a podcast by The 5th Element Podcast Network/Hip-Hop By The Numbers

It is finally here. Noted Jay-Z scholar, Ben. And Charlie, just along for the ride, finally get into the (just music) retrospective of Jay-Z.

In the first of three parts, we tackle his late 90s output, from "Reasonable Doubt" to "Vol. 3", discussing how a weak commercial result for his debut set a tone for what came after it.
