American Gangster is the tenth studio album by American rapper Jay-Z.It was conceived as a concept albuminspired by the 2007 film of the same nameand was released on November 6 of that year through Roc-A-Fella Records.The album features production from Diddy & The Hitmen, Just Blaze, and The Neptunes, among others.It also includes guest appearances by Beanie Sigel, Lil Wayne, Pharrell. ‘Roc Boys (And The Winner Is)’ hears Jay to get his hustle on and represent for his Roc-A-Fella homies, while on ‘Success’ he’s heard exchanging bars with his once nemeses, now labelmate, Nas. Removing the soul sample from the schedule for a moment, Wayne and Jay’s beat ripping skills shine like the polish on a soldier’s boot. While some have speculated that Lil’ Wayne as of late has subliminally aimed a few disses in the Jiggaman’s direction, this didn’t stop Jay recruiting the King of the 16 bar feature to drop some rhymes on the bass-heavy ‘Hello Brooklyn’. ‘Ignorant Shit’ samples the Isley Brothers classic ‘Between The Sheets’, and after taking in Beanie Sigel’s much welcomed return to the mic as well as the feel-good drum loop you’re left with an unquestionable banger. With gangster-isms coming thick and fast, the flawless instrumental backdrops provide an almost soundtrack-like quality to Jay’s rhymes.
