Congratulations, Chef! The planets have finally aligned back to where it all started. Shout to Bambaata, Kool Herc, Public Enemy and the whole Wu. New York is reclaiming it back!!!
I’m not listening to either until there is a chopped and screwed version.

I dig jigga but one thing he lost was he aint rolling with the people who got him there.. that video is more out of touch.
My vote is for Wu Tang!
All day baby!

I got to vote for Jay-z. But I’m from the south so that pure New York sound kind makes me claustrophobic. Wu is coming hard though. Both are way better than that other s**t that’s been coming out. Let’s bring the rap game back from this bubble gum s**t.

How could this be true when Itunes hasn’t released Jay’s album? Do your homework and stop the hate!

The premise of this is some B.S. I thought Raekwon was outselling J until I actually went to Itunes and saw that Jay is not officially out yet. Jay’s more expensive deluxe edition pre-order is #2 to Raekwon’s currently out album that costs less. Jay Z’s cheaper version of his album also is in pre-order and comes in at like #7. So what would happen if you put the Deluxe Edition pre-sales of Blueprint 3 together with the regular edition pre-order sales? They would top Raekwon and be #1 that’s something to be said for a PRE-ORDER compared to music that is already out for download.
Think people a mind is a terrible thing to waste. This is something about nothing. More media B.S.

I know that it hurts to see Jigga man losing! for some of yall….but hip hop purist is lovin every bit of this moment right here…..THE W!!
Jay-Z opened up for me in 95 when i was kaos.I pretty much feel the only thing he is doing different now is,stacking the cake!Beside that he is doning nothing different from when he opened up for me.My hats off to Raekwon!FIA…NOW ON ITUNES!
Jay-z is more highly booted legged, Rae joint is something backpackers been waiting on for 2 years. I love both albums all I’ll say is its good for hip-hop cause both albums are great. Oh and PS it took 2 heads to even make an argument, aint nobody having a debate over the youngins that means ppl aint feeling the new guys LOL
It’s about time mutha f**kas came to their sences. Raekwon and the rest of the Wu fam has always been better then Jay-Z and the Roc Fam. Jay-Z is known for biteing and Wu is known for classics. And if you say other wise, it’s because either you haven’t listen to their joint & solo albums from the 90′s, you don’t know real hip-hop when you here it, you don’t understand the mathematics these Wu-Niggaz spittin, or just on jay-z dick! It might be all the above for most of you commercial ass niggaz!
wait the for the soundscan … this number is obscured , i like raekwon and all and i’m happy for him but as consumer who since 9/8 tried to download BP3 on itunes will tell you. it still has it up as a “pre- order” status. Apparently no one told i-tunes that Jay-z moved up the date !! meanwhile Rhapsody.com and livenation.com you where able to download it right away . so dont go by the ITUNES number wait for SOUNDSCAN.
P.S . I like both albulms for different reasons … real hip-hop is BACK!
Aight, Anotha rediculous comparison, Two completely diferent personafications on the mic! But both Hood hard and full of substance. Raekwon’s da truth but yall gotta give em some more recognizable airplay! Yeah he’s done mad movies and all that, but of course the fan’s are gonna choose who they know and see all the time! Jigga, but that’s a real serious comparison. Hov’s got enough Love, let a true from same day as Hov Live one time Damn! P.S. Hov you greedy Man. I told you on myspace, Hold the torch High! I’m havin nat!
IM SOO TIRED OF JAYS OLD ASS IS THIS NIGGA TRYIN 2 DIE ON STAGE OR DIE AS A RAPPER OR WHAT BC HE LIKE 40 WTF .. HE SHOULD GIVE UP THE MIC AND JUS GHOSTWRITE FOR A NEW NIGGA LIKE MEPH BLEEK OR SOMETHIN LOL
first and foremost im wiTh the MOVEMENT OF REAL HIP HOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WICH THEY BOTH REPERSENT F**K SOUNDSCAN I TUNES AND ALL THAT THEY BOTH GONNA EAT AS THEY DESERVE TO CAUSE ITS HUNGRY ASS NIGGAZ LIKE ME THAT NEED THAT REAL S**T TO GET THROUGH THE STRUGGLES OF LIFE AND THEY BOTH GOT SOMTHING FOR HEADS LIKE ME NUFF LOVE TO THE REAL HIP HOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This beat on New Wu is very smooth and cool to listen. I have not heard this on the radio in Houston, TX. I have heard Jay-Z’s “Run This Town.”
What is that about? I love Method Man. Are Raekwon and Ghostface brothers?

Imma take it back to the dayz when tha Wu was blazin the world. Rae been extra sharp n his chamber. He neva received tha exposure Jay got. They both Iconz in the game. Jay word play “off top” is crazi where as Rae n ghost been comin up wit word play many don’t even undastand. If them 2 eva do a track togetha wit Nas playin 3rd party….it’ll be off the hook
no shocker man i remember the old days when you could buy an album and every song would be bada$$ but now only 1 or 2 songs are good(in all albums)
