What Are The 15 Best Jay-Z Songs Ever?
No matter what mood I’m in, I can always find a Jay-Z song to relate in some form or fashion. This man is definitely one of the great storytellers of our generation. He has the ability to transport you from where you are, to which ever locale he is rapping about.
Here are my Top 15 Jay-Z Songs (In no specific order. If that were the case, i’d be sitting here for 4 hours trying to decide which song goes where.):
1.) American Dreamin’
2.) I Know
3.) 30 Something
4.) Lost Ones
5.) Public Service Announcement (Interlude)
6.) December 4th
7.) Hovi Baby
8.) Guns & Roses

What’s your Top 10 or 15 list lookin like?
Side Note: I originally was gonna do a top 10, but I had to include 15 because I couldn’t just settle on 10 songs.
Random Thought of the Moment: “One Million, Two Million, Three Million, Four/ In 18 Months, 40 Million More…”
