The Blueprint Celebrates 10 Years



On Sept 11, 2001; Jay-Z released his 6th studio album, The Blueprint. The album was an instant classic and received a perfect "XXL" rating from XXL magazine, while The Source awarded The Blueprint a classic 5 mic rating.

The Blueprint is still talked about 10 years later. In 2003, the album was ranked number 464 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time. In 2010, Pitchfork Media ranked it number 5 on their The Top 200 Albums of the 2000s list.

Not only is this the album that set the bench mark for Jay-Z, but it also put 2 producers on the map. In 2001, Jay-Z trusted, then unknown, Kanye West & Just Blaze to handle the majority of the production of the album.
