    Well, Kamikaze is a great album and I have listened to it a lot more than other 2. I might even consider it a classic after few years. As for 4:44 one of the most boring Jay albums ever. Really boring production, it worked on songs like Story of OJ but I'd prefer more b-----r beats. I don't think, there was anything impressive about the album at all. Really lacks the replay value. Tha Carter V had some gems but wish the album was shorter. But still better than Jay's album to me..

    So Kamikaze is like 9/10
    Tha Carter V is like 7/10
    4:44 is one of the worst Jay albums and 5-6/10

    I was most impressed with 4:44 on my first listen than Kamikaze... But I definitely listened to Kamikaze a lot more.

    CV is definitely my least favorite of the three.

    kamikaze is awful. i'm sort of agnostic on the other two; "oj" is obviously the best song on either, but i think you could pick c5 or 4:44 and not be wrong per se

    I love 4:44. Carter 5 was pretty good...Kamikaze, while being Em's best album in years, is very forgettable. It's literally an album where you have a grown man throwing a temper tantrum because people didn't like his last album, which was objectively awful.

    Lol. I think most people will be lying when they say TES, SSLP or MMLP are classics. Or they are lyin' when they say Kamikaze was awful. Let's accept that Em is the worst rapper ever and never ever discuss anything he does.
