Alright folks… the official tracklist has made it’s way to the internets (via Jay-Z.com). Comparing it to the rumored version, I’m excited to see J. Cole get a spot. Hopefully Nas will come through and still lace a verse for that Empire State of Mind joint. Hit the jump…
we really gonna see who run this town come september

the only thing i dont fully understand is why have both cudi and drake on there. i know they are young and got good buzz and what not but is that how you create a classic album? i think he should have gone with some solid vets.

[...] I guarantee this will get more than a few heads jabbering on about this in the c-section. My opinion? An album cover and lineup doesn’t mean shit unless the execution is perfectly performed. Tracklist and full art under the cut. SHAKE UPDATE: The tracklist is rumored, so don’t get overly hyped or overly heated. Relax… breathe… and wait for September 11th. Jay-Z.com. UPDATE 2: Official tracklist has been put up, check it here. [...]

too many features (mostly bad choices, too) and a sub par track list.

KoJ_the_YDC said this on August 18th, 2009 at 4:34 pm
Jeezy, drake and cudi? Smh hov, this looks like a fab album with every track having someone on it. Add in no just blaze production and there goes all hope i had for this. Hov tryna appeal to this younger ringtone audience with the features instead of putting out music his already HUGE established fan base knows. SMH.
Lex Diamonds said this on August 18th, 2009 at 4:35 pm
people need to let that swagger like us remix die. if it was gonna drop it would of came out a year ago. i don’t know why everybody saying “no eminem feature”. it was never said he was gonna be up there
jay-z has tried something different on each of theses and from looking at the track list and features hes trying something different. whats wrong with that?
jjones said this on August 18th, 2009 at 4:35 pm

^^ I think thats the reason why Nas didn’t appear on Cuban Linx 2…. umm, Verbal Intercourse anyone?
Also, now that I think about it, Jay can NEVER do a song Today like QGTM and Underground. Thats why he has these nobody’s on his album cos he knows none of them will lyrically beat him.
And if anyone (sadly) is making a list of the times Jay has stole something from Nas then add Empire state of Mind to the list, cos its NY State of Mind part 4 basically, part 3 had Alica and Rakim remember.

Jay knows exactly what he’s doing. Including Em would be way less of an achievement in the industry than including artists like ‘Ye or Cudder, you can look at this post & think the same low-par bullshit as the majority of commentors. He’s not losing flow; he’s gaining it. Artists like Jeezy, swizz & Pharrell are just included to keep it real, as i said….Jay knows exactly what he’s doing.

Why would Jay do the same thing he’s done before with Nas and Em?? I dont want to see the same features on every album.
People need to stop bashing songs w/o listening to them. When they leak then you should have an opinion.
Theres no SLU part 2 because he remove the original SLU from his album. When he made DOA it would be stupid to have a song with autotune on the album.
really?? said this on August 18th, 2009 at 4:42 pm
^^ Sha
That’s what I’ve been thinking this whole time. NY State of Mind with alicia, Rakim the God, and God’s Son. I’m afraid that “Empire State of Mind” will just be recycling the previous tracks.
EBrew said this on August 18th, 2009 at 4:43 pm

You contradicted yourself with that comment. They don’t HAVE to put SLU 1 on it for SLU 2 to be on it. There’s ways of working around that kind of shit. It’s called loop holes.
1 Dollar said this on August 18th, 2009 at 4:59 pm
how the fuck can you guys determine whether or not an album is classic strictly based on the tracklist? Especially when all the guests are pretty good in their own respective ways. How about you wait up and make up your mind when the album drops?

smh said this on August 18th, 2009 at 5:07 pm
I was really looking forward to that Nas feature. I’m ok with Jeezy. They got good chemistry together. Most of the features will be vocals and not rapping. I doubt that Drake/Cudi will be rapping. J. Cole will tho.
“can’t cheat death” was a blend from DJ Premier’s “Blow!” (I think) off of his instrumental album Beast That Collected Dust and Jay’s “Pray” from AG (I think it was Pray).
Thomas said this on August 18th, 2009 at 5:07 pm
“Hate” is gonna see the return of Autotune Ye haha cuz it was a leftover from 808′s. I’m also hoping that Swizz, Pharrell and Jeezy are only there for hooks. please
Marshall said this on August 18th, 2009 at 5:09 pm
I’m assuming no Em due to him preventing a Renegade v2.0, lolol. Although I’m questioning the Swizz Beatz and Jeezy features, the features seem solid. Glad J. Cole’s bout to get put on though
MikeDaooo said this on August 18th, 2009 at 5:09 pm
having an album full of features that is supposed to be a solo album is DEFINITELY a sign of laziness, not maturity.
A big Reason why RD, The Blueprint and The Black Album were such great albums is because they all had little to no features, which helped us focus on Jay-Z and nobody else, and that forced him to come with his A game
It wouldn’t seem so lazy the title was “Jay-Z presents….Roc Nation” and calling it a compilation album, but as a solo album where only 4 of the 15 songs are actually solo tracks, it’s pretty ridiculous (like what fab did).
Especially since this is a continuation of The Blueprint and not…say…a new beginning (like kingdom come)
Basically he attached “The Blueprint” to the album and set it for release 8 years after the original blueprint was released to build hype and make it not look like another kingdom come
JL said this on August 18th, 2009 at 5:11 pm
Personally i think this album has the chance to be dope as shit. People complain about stuff but i see the reasoning.
NO SLU? once he made death of autotune Hov would look real stupid putting that on there when he has people using auto-tune.
So many young guys? J. Cole is on Roc Nation, you guys were bitching when the first list came out and it didn’t have him on there but when the official comes and it does have J. Cole on there, you guys still bitch, SMH.
Drake? The guy has (arguably)the biggest buzz from a new-comer since 50 cent and the guy is dope (IMO) so this is a good business move.
Ye is Hov’s little bro so of course he’s gonna give shine to Ye’s label GOOD Music and you have Hudson doing a hook, Cudder with a guest verse. whats the harm in that?
I do agree there should be no swizz beats feature? dude fell off a while ago.
Jeezy? brings some of the street cred and has improved steadily on the mic.
Pharrell with a hook so again whats the harm?
Jay-z trying to being mainstream shine to new people, Nas and Em already got that respect so let him do him.
BP3 got me fully hyped, can’t wait to hear it.
Calvin said this on August 18th, 2009 at 5:12 pm

who cares said this on August 18th, 2009 at 5:14 pm
this is bullshit
all these commenters calling the features being ringtone shit or whatever
when so far gone n kid named cudi both came out
all of u were on drakes or cudis respective dicks
now that they are successful artists that have appealed to larger audiences
and lost their underground appeal
u all do nothing but hate
no appreciation
all these artist are or should be respected musicians
cept swizzy
but hes prolly only credited as an artist cuz he charged jay less $
n beforw hudson was a singer, he was a respected beat maker

He shoulda cut Drake or Cudi and got a track produced by Drake’s producer 40. That nigga is the truth. J. Cole is gonna be the best feature on it and I do agree when niggas saying hes a more relevant Nas for our time. The Warm up was the fucking truthhh. I’m guessing the Nas track got cut cause hopefully they ain’t putting together another collab until the both come propper at the straight CLASSIC level. Their last few collabs were…eh. Same with a no Em track. I vote J Em and Nas spend the next month or so coming up with the best collabo in modern hip hop history and just shut it down as a bonus track or something. J. Cole for the win. Drake for the kinda win. Cudi is hit or miss for me but his last tape was dope.

And Nas has fallen off (imo). everyone hating on these new guys but get over it. ill take cudi drake or cole over em mas or jada. and obviously jay z knows what he doing. how many of you bitching on here sold millions of albums and got bank like Jay. he knows what hes doing so fall back.

I guess that’s what the internet is for, right?
AD said this on August 18th, 2009 at 5:28 pm
oh and cosign and LMAO at @m. “dumb down for my audiance and double my dollars”. so fucking true.
hes appealed to the strict lyrical rap fan base with j. cole. pop rap with kanye. trappers with jeezy. emo rap with cudi. and is riding the whole drake buzz with him on it.
hes gonna SELL. hate his music but he just bought himself a new yaught plus some with the tracklist alone.
and now can’t no one say hes just being a greedy old nigga not doing shit for the younger 20 somethin generation cause he has a lot of the main players of that scene on it with j. cole, cudi, and drake.

hov is smart as shit he has next gen artists on his album so these younger kids flock to em. i think he should have little to no features. that really shows if an artists can hold his own for 10 + tracks he’s done it befofe but he knows all these features is bascally business
Im Just Saying said this on August 18th, 2009 at 6:10 pm
but em & nas should callab with jay one more time before they call it quits or if they do. shit get em all on a track and let dr dre produce. fuck it make an album with just them 3 and dre produce it all who wouldnt wanna hear that?
Im Just Saying said this on August 18th, 2009 at 6:13 pm
jesus, people blow this c-box up.. look people BP3 is gonna be a great album, you can’t deny that I have a blog and i’ve noticed mainstream rappers not dropping shit due to the fact run this town is even a single right now. Anyone that talks Sh about Jay-Z is just a hater point blank. He’s a mogul, musician is like the 4th thing on Jay’s list so the fact he was able to know it’d be dope to have Cudi, Drake AND J Cole even is enough said. It’s gonna be very good thing for Hip Hop whether you want to agree or not. I will definitely be BUYING a copy.
Trey said this on August 18th, 2009 at 6:13 pm
WTF… How can you judge an album off the damn tracklisting? You haven’t even heard the music and there is “Hate” all over the place. Yeah… that is alot of features, but that doesn’t make for a bad album. Wait to you actually hear the album. When did everyone become hiphop critics? STFU
Whatever said this on August 18th, 2009 at 6:14 pm
and BTW i’m with Im Just Saying on what he said before me, and having the stripes be blue that was valid as shit
Trey said this on August 18th, 2009 at 6:15 pm

Don’t get ya panties in a bunch yall gon be bumpin BP3 on repeat like shit when it comes out. Give it a rest, appreciate the post and move on….Thanks for this post tho Shake…shit got ME anticipating like a muthafucka

LOL at too many features when most of them are clearly chorus features u people complain to much to me its not enough features he shoulda had a song with Beyonce and Wayne that would be insane
CheezyDoDo said this on August 18th, 2009 at 6:31 pm
OUTKAST, NAS, JAY-Z, AND EMINEM really need to join forces to make an album together…fuck that slaughter house shit.
That would be a damn good album.

great young jeezy and drake are two of my favorite rappers
robocop said this on August 18th, 2009 at 6:35 pm
I don’t understand all of these comments. I think at this point in his career, Jay-Z can pretty much do whatever he wants. He at least deserves that much, as an artist. Some of the comments on here are whiney and you know you will still listen to the entire CD anyway. He could have not released anything and then you would be complaining about how much you want another Jay album.

@jet
he doesnt wanna be outshined lyrically..
11 features wow… but at least J.Cole is on one of them..
& no i dont think they are chorus features
mmkayy said this on August 18th, 2009 at 6:49 pm
What’s with all this Lil Wayne crap? Even Lil Wayne fans should know that Wayne hasn’t been good since like 2004. I used to be a fan, but he fell off…and unless Jay was going to get a REAL verse from Wayne on some Drought 2 Type Ish, then he knew he need not apply.
Just like when we were talking about the Kid Cudi album the other day and people were saying it has a lack of features, I was saying that was great because you don’t want your album to end up looking like this. This sort of is like it’s a compilation album. But maybe that’s Jay-Z’s aim. He’s an older dude now…and this might be his last album. He wants to open the doors for this younger dude’s to be put on. I can feel that.
Either way, I’m going out to buy the album when it drops. Also, YouTube or Google it, I think he’s explained the reasoning for the three Red Stripes.
I’m certainly looking forward to the J.Cole collab, as well as the Drake collab, Almost Home w/Kid Cudi and Hate w/Ye.
It might turn out to be a great, great album.
Young Son (The Hip Hop Dreamer) said this on August 18th, 2009 at 6:53 pm

Jay put let empire of the sun get a spot on the album woooow thats the bizness i already this going to be a classic and prob the best jay album ever. I have to give it to him he smart for putting cudi and j. cole on that bitch but what about Big Sean the youngin deserves a spot but i guess jay and kanye had to put him on tha back burner for a min but its all G.O.O.D music

molina said this on August 18th, 2009 at 7:06 pm
The term “Hate” can be used, because the album, well fuck the damn snippets haven’t even leaked, so when people say “Shit looks wack” or “Jay slippin this album is gonna suck” Listen to the shit first, so yes the term “Hate” can be used….What looks wack? or what sounds wack? Let the album drop then inform me if the shit was still wack…but like all the above “Haters” many will change thier mind.
Doja said this on August 18th, 2009 at 7:10 pm

dza said this on August 18th, 2009 at 7:10 pm
I am a Jay-Z fan(use to be a much bigger one) but this record looks kinda boring!!!!!!! Not to say Im jumping to conclusions but Hov still has fans like me who been here since 1996/97 when he was gettin started and not one track jumps out at me! I heard Nas is gonna be on “Empire State of Mind” but what happened? If anybody thinks Jay will put EM on a track w/ him again please do not hold your breath,He wouldn’t wanna be out shined twice!!! But im still curious about the record,definetly won’t buy it nigga got enough of my money already!!

What’s wrong with CuDi and Drake?
Jay has come out saying he’d rather have an artist spit a real line than can connect with an audience than a hot metaphor. CuDi and CuDi, for the most part, are all about being real and connecting with their fan bases.
james said this on August 18th, 2009 at 7:18 pm
lmao at a tracklist looking boring…wtf?
DP said this on August 18th, 2009 at 7:20 pm
He really Should’ve just bought in a live band…maybe the roots and did BP3 that way…..no features except for black thought if the roots were there….yeah that sounds classic…but i have my fingers crossed
Darryl the E. said this on August 18th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
I dont see what you guys are complaining about, yeah not having Nas on Empire State of MInd is a little bit of a let down, but is that seriously gonna stop it from being a great album? And im pretty sure MGMT isn’t included as a feature artist because they probably are only supplying the instrumentals. And just because there are a lot of features doesnt mean they’re gonna be verses from everyone, the Cudi, Drake, Kanye, Mr Hudson, and Pharrell features could all possibly just be that person on the hook. And Im with Shake on the matter of the no Eminem feature, not only would another track from them probably not live up to the hype, but on another level it could make Renegade not as much of a gem as it is

Blueprint 3 support republican right wing extremists
Buy real hip hip and dont support jay-z’s biggotry he is a nigger in everysense he has no respect for african americans or anybody who isnt in his circle. He does not make music for the fans or for creativity he makes music to make money. I will be posting links for his album so nobody buys it and trust me it is a mockery of hip hop, his lyrics are far from lyrical and are mostly catered to bragging about his money, it lacks creativity and vision, it mocks and copies the Kanye 808′s & Heartbreaks sound and is a complete work of trash. Do not support this guy.
My shit on a blank CD-R > Blueprint 3

how the fuck can you guys determine whether or not an album is classic strictly based on the tracklist? Especially when all the guests are pretty good in their own respective ways. How about you wait up and make up your mind when the album drops?
Danial said this on August 18th, 2009 at 5:00 pm

one thing for sure though is it isn’t a classic it still can be labeled a decent/good album but classic NO that’s reaching and you don’t have to even listen to it to realize it’s not a classic

For all yall dat had negative comments towards Raekwon, now who looks like the fool.
LOL at dumbo Bernard Buttons for thinking that Raekwon and fam gave him back the tape. They played his ass. Thats what happens when you mess with real dudes though. That whole Joey Button Eye Jammy indicent was the first time where we have a internet meeting the street entanglement. For one, I hope yall dudes took notice and studied the situation so you don’t end up in a similar situation. Seriously though….a lot of yall talk wreckless on here…and you have no idea who you messin with on the Internet…Thunninn. though. Better watch out cuz the kat you messin with may be a kat like Me or Raekwon and we will not think twice to take the appropriate street action upon you….
SO THE TAKEAWAY HERE IS….BE SMART. DONT RUN YA MOUF BEHIND YA COMPUTER OR YOU MAY END UP WITH A JOE BUDDENS EYE SOCKET SHOT THE THE EYE AND SHOULDER AND YOU WILL END UP IN A SLING JUST LIKE JOEY.

Why is everyone going crazy like the Tracklist determines whether or not the album itself will be wack?
So he has J.Cole, Drake, and Kid Cudi, new blood yes, good choices? Possibly. Haven’t heard any of their verses on these songs, so they might have career defining moments for all any of us know (Think Kanye on “Never Let Us Down” way back when)
Or they could just be disappointments. Always that option, but I expect different considering they 3 dope artists in they own right, and I dont even like Kid Cudi that much.
As far as an Em collab, has anyone ever stopped to think MAYBE Hov just didn’t want an Eminem verse on here? People making it seem like the two are best friends and have multiple songs together in they catalogs lol, Renegade was classic, but neither one of them is obligated for a repeat performance.I’m a fan of Em but can yall let that man breathe wtf, if he aint on the tracklistin he dont even need a mention for real. When has Hov needed ANYBODY else to validate his OWN material, I mean some people complain that it’s to many feautures, and then others prefer if he went at it for dolo, lol just rate the music and fuck all the other shit.
Easystylez said this on August 18th, 2009 at 8:17 pm
Does any1 know why Jay-Z as never worked with the clipse? I mean they both work heavy with Pharrell and P has even said for his best beat it goes 1. Clipse 2. Jay-Z on who he calls first…Not to mention the same content when it comes to wordplay and dopeboy slang.

I agree the Jay should try new things.
But GZ, you’re tripping about Eminem not being relevant to contemporary rap music. I won’t lie and say his last album was that great or anything…but Em is still smudering like 90% of rappers and artists in the game right now.
#Fact – Relapse was better than Slaughterhouse’s album
Young Son (The Hip Hop Dreamer) said this on August 18th, 2009 at 9:04 pm

There are maybe only a handful of people on the earth that can even critisize this nigga for ANY moves he makes!
Jays gonna buy at least 5 leer jets off this shit. Its sad, i don’t think 75% of the dudes on here can even comprehend WHO JAYZ IS.
He isn’t some new jack or just solidified artist. Dude is JAY-Z. A pillar for hip hop.
Nobody can dispute the features’ young talent, drake’s monster hype, cudi with his following and 6th sense of melodies, j.cole the relevant lyricist, and mr. hudson on the chorus. Its all relevent
Hopefully we’ll be seeing carreer defining moments on these trax from all these guys.
Point black period, if you’re reading this and feeling hate right now, you know your a straight FAGGOT.

I mean he has done a lot already for his self why not let the new younger cats get a chance shit dont act like 90% of yall aint swinging on drakes d**k. plus a track wit empire of the sun do most of yall even know who they are????? and Mr. Hudson come on if you dont know about him cope that Mr. Hudson and the library its good music. Kid cudi is holding it down without even having dropped an album yet! So stop the hatin damn didnt we all grow up on jigga anywayz?
branden brooks said this on August 18th, 2009 at 9:26 pm
… i still think Jeezy is Garbage lol… and part of the reason of being a “FAN” is to criticize when our favorite artists take certain steps when making an album. is BP3 gonna be a Great Album??? YES. its Jay-Z. but i think some of the features (Jeezy, Swizz Beats…) shouldnt have made the album considering the quality of their solo performances…
KayFloww said this on August 18th, 2009 at 9:27 pm
jeezy is FAR from garbage. jeezy is the epitome of beautiful southern flow and lyrics. jeezy is the BEST at his brand of rap, and at the end of the day you have to credit him for that. the recession was leaps and bounds ahead of anything in the past that he did.
anyway… all these haters bull shittin on jigga need to understand… you brought the post about him to 180 replies and THOUSANDS of hits. you only givin that man shine, so on behalf of hova, i’ll say thank you.
P'COLA said this on August 18th, 2009 at 9:34 pm
It’s a tracklisting. It doesn’t matter how good or bad things are, in a tracklisting nothing looks that good or bad. Also, look at Can’t Tell Me Nothing. That featured young jeezy, but just his ad libs. Whos gonna say none of these features are like that? In a rap, features on just a hook do nothing to crowd the song or take away from the artist, so that argument is stupid.
Jay worked for like a year and a half on this. He knows what he’s doing, there’s no way it’ll suck with all the features bringing their A game no matter how big or small their part is.
Quags said this on August 18th, 2009 at 9:38 pm
Personally I would love to see A Jay/Nas Part 2 But Jay Z’s selection takes major planning and the all important vibe. I am still gonna purchase this record. I expect nothing short of greatness.

My only problem is the fact that many albums nowadays have too many guest features. Both the labels and artists don’t seem confident that the artists can carry the weight of an album by themselves (which is most of the time the label’s fault).
C-C said this on August 18th, 2009 at 10:20 pm
Sorry everyone, but Cudi and Drake get more airplay than Nas and Em do these days, and they’re doing it with quite legitimate skill (unlike the majority of what gets on the radio). What makes these newcomers so exciting is that they have some serious talent and intelligence and are really challenging the current popular hip hop music with it. Like, look at the VMAs this year… Cudi, Drake and Asher are nominated for Best New Artist. That’s like what, the first time EVER that the majority of the nominations have been rappers? I know that’s kind of a lame example, but these kids ARE changing not only popular hip hop music, but popular music in general. Jay-Z knows this. Jay-Z knows what he’s doing.
go2hell said this on August 18th, 2009 at 10:24 pm
^^^^ INTELLIGENCE? Do you want me to start quoting Drake songs? stfu please. And, Kid Cudi and Drake are not rappers. Asher Roth is trash! How you people have the balls to say these things are astounding.

Love to see J.Cole on there. Since Cudi and Drake are featuring, where’s Blu? Regardless of that I think Blu gonna come with his own BLUPRINT when the time is right.
I’m disappointed to see Nas was not on Empire State of Mind. From the original tracklist leak I was majorly hyped for that joint. Hope they still do it together as originally planned. Should be a good album though on the whole.

Brandon, how old are you man?
I hope you’re not some old cat who doesn’t want to embrace new music. I told you if people don’t start embracing new hip hop, the genre will die because everybody is so over-critical now. Kid Cudi is an artist…he raps and things like that, but he can make songs. He’s unique. Why do cats want to hear the same old thing.
And anyone saying Drake isn’t a rapper should jump off a cliff. I mean, I rocks with him now on his music, but I sort of wish he never got affiliated with Young Money, because I’m feeling cats who are just now getting on his music think that some of this more poppy stuff is all Drake can offer. Please got download his “Room For Improvement” and “Comeback Season” mixtapes from 2006 and 2007. The guy can actually rap.
The Cudi, Drake and J.Cole collabs should be the best ones!
Stop the comparisons and just enjoy good music. Sheesh!

You never know alot of the guest spots might be hooks Alicia Keys is listed and you know she’s on the hook she ain’t rappin..lol and Drake sings too so you never know….plus why even put Em or Nas on it when everybody just be quick to say they killed him on his on shit thou no one does that when other rappers get killed on they shit…Anyway it goes its better than the other stuff out
chris said this on August 19th, 2009 at 7:28 am
In all seriousness:
Why Kid Cudi, but no Young Chris?
No Common (there’s already 3 – count them, 3 – artists from Kanye’s label, GOOD Music on here: Kanye, Kid Cudi and Mr Hudson)
No Jadakiss? (who he signed to Def Jam/Roc-A-Fella and is a Roc Nation affiliate?)
No Nas? Why not a “Get Em High” / ” Just To Get By” Part Two track with Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Common and Jay?
This is really disappointing. I’m a middle class, biracial 23-year old who was raised in Boston and Southern California, I am not a thug and I didn’t grow up in Brooklyn. This doesn’t appeal to “my” demographic because he’s trying too hard to make it…trendy. I hate this track listing and I’m a huge Jay fan.

cudi sucks imo.
hes not built for this game
tms said this on August 19th, 2009 at 2:09 pm
Oh god this list looks BUNK. Looks like the dude just read hypemachine. Empire of the Sun? Seriously HOV? What the fuck are you thinking man you don’t need to cater to the pitchfork/blog crowd, dude.
To the dude above that said Cudi ain’t built for the game–gotta agree. I don’t see him having any longetivity whatsoever. Kid Cudi had one good idea with Day N Nite and, frankly, it wasn’t even his own idea. Crookers put him on the map. Someone tell me what this guy is gonna rap about after his stoner/loner/man on the moon trope wears thin?
Would have loved to see Jay link up with Gucci on a track…at least that would have been somewhat interesting.
