Jay Z ranks his solo albums, admits 'Kingdom Come' was lame

Ranking albums is a pasttime mostly undergone by stans and other music nerds so that they can have a lively debate among themselves. It's rare that a musician gets in on the act and even rarer that they do so with their own music. However, that's just what Jay Z did when he ranked his own solo efforts on his Life + Times website. 

Jigga revealed that even he thought Kingdom Come was trash in a post titled "The Scoreboard."

1. Reasonable Doubt (Classic)
2. The Blueprint (Classic)
3. The Black Album (Classic)
4. Vol. 2 (Classic)
5. American Gangster (4 1/2, cohesive)
6. Magna Carta (Fuckwit, Tom Ford, Oceans, Beach, On the Run, Grail)
7. Vol. 1 (Sunshine kills this album...fuck... Streets, Where I'm from, You Must Love Me...)
8. BP3 (Sorry critics, it's good. Empire (Gave Frank a run for his money))
9. Dynasty (Intro alone...)
10. Vol. 3 (Pimp C verse alone... oh, So Ghetto)
11. BP2 (Too many songs. Fucking Guru and Hip Hop, ha)
12. Kingdom Come (First game back, don't shoot me) 

As a diehard Jay Z fan who hasn't been able to stomach most of his post-Black Album output (and who wrote a retrospective on Reasonable Doubt earlier this year), I have to say I agree almost entirely with this ranking. I'd flop Blueprint and Black Album and place BP3 between BP2 and Kingdom, but still. A solid list from the man himself.

What do you think of Jay Z's personal ranking? Did he call it right?
