With Hov poised to tear down YANKEE STADIUM tonight I’m seeing a lot of these lil YN UNDER 30 year olds speaking on s**t they know nothing about!!! REASONABLE DOUBT dropped in 1996… and instantly had 4 top 20s from that album! Ain’t No… W/Foxy Brown, Can’t Knock The Hustle w/Mary J Blige Brooklyns Finest w/ Biggie & Dead Presidents straight off the rip all charting at the same time! Being apart of this industry for as long as I’ve been… let me remind the hate glazers, STREAMS ARE NOT THE SAME HUSTLE AS RECORDS SOLD! These lil youngins quick to try and compare Drake to Hov not even close ! He’s a streaming artist WHO HAS NOT TO DATE SOLD AS MANY RECORDS AS JAY Z! So let’s stop the hating! IN THE 90s WE WAS ON GRIND TIME! The era that birthed half yall “ internet raised me mofos😂🤣😂HAVE NO OPINION HERE!
And as for Jay Z’s release in 1996 of ReasonsbleDoubt, Jay-Z's debut album, Reasonable Doubt, was officially certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on September 18, 1996. You can verify the certification details on the RIAA database.
