1. Rapper Jay-Z's 1996 debut album. Considered by many to be one of the greatest rap albums ever.
2. Legal term for when there is a plausible reason to believe that someone has not committed the crime of which they are being accused.

1. "The Black Album" was tight, but "Reasonable Doubt" is still Jigga's best album.

2. The witness was unable to place my client at the crime, therefore you have reasonable doubt annd you have to acquit my client.

Manhunt

Fun ass game in which one person is "it" and counts to 10 while the other players run away. The person then chases them and tries to catch them and hold on to them and saying "Manhunt 1-2-3" three times. If you succeed in this, the person who you caught is now "it" with you and has to help you catch the other players. Game continues until everyone is caught. Also known as "Ringo" in some circles.

"Yo let's play manhunt! That shit was mad fun last time!"

Grant

A $50 bill. Named so because the face on the $50 bill is the 18th President of the United States, Ulysses S. Grant.

Courtesy of Nas' song "N.Y. State of Mind" on his debut album "Illmatic":

"Or either on the corner bettin' Grants with the Cee-Lo champs, laughing at baseheads, tryin' to sell some broken amps"

beatmaker

A synonym for producer, but not so much because a producer's task may be a little more complex than a beatmaker. Basically the person who does the beat for a song, including melody, samples, etc. More common in hip hop and rap than any other form of music.

Yo fam, who's a better beatmaker, Kanye West ot Just Blaze? I mean, "Song Cry" was hot, don't get me wrong, but "Heart of the City" and "Takeover" got hotter beats! Kanye is the man for making those beats!!!

*All aforementioned songs are on Jay-Z's 2001 album, "The Blueprint".
