I just realised this...havnt listened to Blueprint 2 in aaaaages and it never occured to me at the time (kanye wasn't on the mic back then..)

He's not credited, and on ohhla.com they dont specify it either. Its sounds kinda like him, but its not his usual flow...the lyrics tho, give it away

Magazines call me a rock star, girls call me cock star
Billboard, pop star, neighborhood block star
Chi-Town go-gettin pimps, we mobsters
Gingerbread Man even said, "You're a monster!"
Yeah, that's how I feel
To be down, you must appeal
To the crew, we're rated R
O.C., O.G., Bobby Johnson son
Ask me, "Rey-Rey, is that yo' car?"
I seen MTV, I know who you are
You did "Takeover," do you got beef with Nas?
I did take over the game, brought back the soul
Got tracks to go, got plaques that's gold
Platinum to go, yeah that's the flow
All I, know, I gots the flow
And I don't play cause I'm from Chicago

The "Rey-Rey" line threw me off. Im 99% its 'ye tho.

That first beat he shows Jay-Z in 'Fade to Black' that sounds like NWA, I think the Beastie Boys would sound good over it.

All on the same topic..

Kanye also spat on the chorus of Kweli's "Guerilla Monsoon Rap". He also wasn't credited for that either. That was in 2000, I think.
