Shawn "Jay Z" Carter is one of the most influential Hip Hop figures of the 1990s and early 21st century. Raised in the dangerous Brooklyn projects, he soon gained street credibility and started his own label, Roc. A-Fella Records, to release a debut album that sold over a million copies. The rest is history. This African-American icon has topped the music charts for years, won dozens of Grammy Awards and was the first Hip Hop artist to be inducted into the Hall Of Fame. On this album we can listen to the instrumentals and acapellas of hits such as Dead Presidents, Hard Knock Life, Izzo (H.O.V.A) or 99 Problems. With his smooth, slow and powerful flow, Jay Z raps the story of the self-made man. He has given a voice to generations eager to prosper and emerge from marginality. In short, a unique and unrepeatable artist.
