专辑介绍
1999年Jay-Z推出了专辑《Vol. 3: Life and Times of S. Carter》，销量十分惊人，并拥有多首热门金曲。他曾在1999年专辑《Vol.3 … Life and Times of S.Carter（S.Carter的生活与时代）》的“S.Carter”中称自己为“太阳般的顶尖男人（the man on top like the sun）”。但是我们不得不承认，麦克风后面的他确实有着令众人为之倾倒的个人魅力。

After the crossover success of 1998's
Vol. 2: Hard Knock Life
(complete with highly publicized samples from Annie), Jay-Z returned to the streets on his fourth proper album overall, 1999's Vol. 3: Life and Times of S. Carter. A set of hard-hitting tracks with some of the best rhymes of Jay-Z's career, the album is much more invigorating than its predecessor, and almost as consistently entertaining as his best album,
In My Lifetime, Vol. 1
. As good as his rapping has become, the production here plays a large part as well. Befitting his superstar status, Jay-Z boasts the cream of hip-hop producers:
Timbaland
(four tracks total),
DJ Premier
,
Swizz Beatz
, and
Rockwilder
.
DJ Premier
's "So Ghetto,"
Timbaland
's "Snoopy Track" (with
Juvenile
), and
DJ Clue
's "Pop 4 Roc" are innovative tracks that push the rhymes along but never intrude too much on Jay-Z's own flow. If this album doesn't quite make it up to Jay-Z's best, though, it's the fault of a few overblown productions, like "Dope Man" and "Things That U Do" (with
Mariah Carey
).

- @淼爷(说我想说 做我想做)：3生命与年代.卡特1999
- @Solarie：.
- @ARTPOP(all i hear i...)：1999年的啊！现在听完全不过时
- @mt(音樂救贖)：蝦米的這張專輯少了一首歌 ’‘Anything‘’ 在outro 裡面應該是有Anything / Jigga My Nigga / Girl's Best Friend
- @黄色潜水艇(微笑，挥手，再见。)：显然《Vol.2》的商业化并没有让Jay-Z满意，在随后推出的《Vol.3》中，他开始尝试向街头文化回归——但这变化和“回归”结合得可不太好，新制作人和客串歌手大部分来自南部，这样的转变并不能让评论家和乐迷们接受，不过，由Timbaland制作、UGK客串的南部派对曲《Big Pimpin’》倒是火得一塌糊涂。此外，东岸最优秀的制作人DJ Premier最后一次为Jay-Z跨刀制作了《So Ghetto》，此后他与Jay-Z的方向越行越远，不相往来。
- @ᴿᴴᴵᴺᴼ(ᴍᴀᴋᴇ ᴀʀᴛ ɴᴏᴛ...)：
- @tlmgt(松任谷由实的迷弟)：《Big Pimpin'》Timbaland非法采样埃及作曲家Baligh Hamdi于1957年创作的《Khosara, Khosara》（完全无试听）吃了官司（但确实是好歌，异域味运用得蛮好
- @nilufarim(ㅤ )：☆

- @kevin：Boring! 感觉亮点就是Intro和Outro。
