Previous Episode: Ep.87 - Jay-Z, Part 1

Next Episode: Ep.89 - "I'm Not Black, I'm OJ"... Okay (Jay-Z Pt.3)

The Jay-Z retrospective continues with part 2. In this ep, we go from "The Dynasty" to "The Black Album" and it's from here that we start to notice patterns in Jay's methods, how he attempts to break those patterns (with varying results) and how if his career truly ended, it would've been a solid catalog.
