Vol. 2... Hard Knock Life is Jay-Z's third studio album and his most commercially successful one, selling over 5 million copies in the US. Like Biggie on Life After Death, Jay-Z diversifies his style here. Tracks like 'N**** What, N**** Who' with Timbaland touch and the dialogue 'Coming of Age' revisit the young hustler from his first LP, Reasonable Doubt. It shows Jay-Z can crush his peers even when experimenting with flow. This release features a black double vinyl pressing, includes a printed insert, and was originally released in 1998 under Roc-A-Fella Records (2014 re - issue).
