Six albums debut in the top-10 of The Billboard 200 this week, including the fourth album in a row from Jay-Z to enter at No. 1, and the highest charting title for Bob Dylan since 1979. Jay-Z's "The Blueprint" (Roc-a-Fella/Def Jam/IDJMG) bows at the top of the main album chart after selling 427,000 units last week, according to SoundScan, and jumps to No. 1 on Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, where it appeared last week at No. 59 due to street date violations.

The Blueprint (2001)
Hov's third of his three classics, The Blueprint was a movement as much as an album - the album that began to turn Jay Z from a rapper into the rapper. And, oh yeah, some dude from Chicago with a funny name did a lot of the beats. Whatever happened to him?

Jay Z: The Blueprint Album Review | Pitchfork
The Blueprint is possibly the least sonically inventive hip-hop chart topper in years-- stunning and captivating for sure, but still loungily comfortable enough to sleep to. The songs are spare, but the care of assembly holds any leftover interest that Jay isn't already commanding.

The Blueprint - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Blueprint is the sixth studio album by American rapper Jay-Z, released on September 11, 2001, on Roc-A-Fella Records in the United States. Its release was set a week earlier than initially planned in order to combat bootlegging. Recording sessions for the album took place during 2001 at Manhattan Center Studios and Baseline Studios in New York City. Contrasting the radio-friendly sound of Jay-Z's previous work, The Blueprint features soul-based sampling and production handled primarily by Kanye West and Just Blaze.[1]
