About this album
The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 476,000 copies in its first week. It became Jay-Z’s eleventh US number-one album, breaking the record he had previously shared with Elvis Presley, and produced five singles that achieved chart success. Upon its release, The Blueprint 3 received generally mixed to positive reviews from music critics. Rolling Stone named it the fourth best album of 2009.
Background
The earliest hype over The Blueprint 3 came when DJ Clue released in January 2008 a mixtape song called “Ain’t I”, produced by Timbaland. In the intro, Clue says, “Off that Blueprint 3 baby!” However, a spokesperson for Jay-Z said that it was an old, unreleased song and that the recording of The Blueprint 3 had not yet started. On July 20, Timbaland, a frequent contributor to previous Jay-Z albums, told MTV News that he would be producing the whole album. But in an interview with the Rolling Stone magazine, Jay-Z called the statement “premature”. In July 2009, Jay-Z confirmed The Blueprint 3 as the album’s title during an interview with radio station Shade 45.

Torenkownage Bullshit they didn't. Seven years ago, all I heard was "99 Problems is the only good song on The Black Album!! Hov is falling off!!1!". And you're out of your mind if you think nobody hated American Gangster... no singles broke the Top 50. Album got no love. Look right here on Last.FM: "I love Jay, but this album is wack.."/"great beats, half-assed rapping."/"yep TOTALLY retarded, kingdom come is better this is just.... just not jay z ".
