He's amazing. God, where do you start?
It's not just production, he's an MC, but it's more confessional (?) than
your lyrical MC. He has a real humour and candour in his work - as
exemplified by his single Jesus Walks. He's conscious but not afraid to be
inconsistent as most people are.
His album is The College Dropout and he masterminded the old soul feel of
The Blueprint, arguably the best Jay-Z album, Alicia Keys' You Don't Know My
Name, Janet's I Want You (only decent song on her latest) and Brandy's Talk
About Us... and that big song by Twista, Slow Jamz.
His work on the new Consequence (cousin of Q-Tip) LP is great.
