*** SPOILER ALERT (Disclaimer Requirements Fulfilled, I’ve Done My Job.) ***

We break down the now classic penultimate series finale; the Teddy/Franklin apex scenes; debate if we have seen the last of Oso; the concept of a “Mother’s Love”; and discuss some of the best scenes of the episode. Plus we share our predictions for the series finale; and more. Also, I feel like MacGyver trying to put this description together without playing spoiler. I deserve an award for this.

The Ave Podcast with Cal Cee – The 20th Anniversary of Jay-Z’s Reasonable Doubt

Welcome once again to The Ave Podcast. In the spirit of #FlashbackFriday, we take you back to the musical Golden Era of 90’s music to celebrate one of the Greatest albums in Hip Hop history. Twenty years ago tomorrow (June 25, 1996), smack in the middle of a East Coast – West Coast Beef led by Bad Boy and Death Row Records, Shawn Carter otherwise known as Jay-Z, dropped his debut album “Reasonable Doubt”. At the time, it was highly viewed as a critically acclaimed album. As time went along, it’s now regarded as a masterpiece and one of the best Hip Hop Albums that has even been made.

Today we welcome back our guest & past contributor to South Shore Ave Shawn Adonis (The Notorious B.I.G.’s Ready To Die, Episode 3 of The Ave), as we discuss our favorite songs from the album (what’s said about one song in particular may shock you), if this truly qualifies as Jay-Z’s greatest album, and how it ranks among our all-time Hip Hop albums.
