Reasonable Doubt hit store shelves on June 25, 1996. The album was released via a distribution deal between Priority Records and Roc-A-Fella Records, which Jay-Z co-founded with Damon Dash and Kareem “Biggs” Burke.
According to hip-hop publication XXL, the disc debuted to lukewarm sales, despite receiving critical acclaim. By the end of the year, it had only sold 420,000 copies. It would take years before Reasonable Doubt reached platinum status and eventually became a classic.
As Jay-Z continues his efforts to connect with fans, he will also headline a string of sold-out shows at New York’s Yankee Stadium from July 10-12.
