Throughout the late 1990s, Jaz-O had quite a hand in Jay-Z's early solo success. Jaz-O produced, and was featured on "[[Ain't No Nigga]]," the second single from Jay-Z's 1996 debut album, ''[[Reasonable Doubt (album)|Reasonable Doubt]]''. The song is cited as playing a significant role in securing Jay-Z's record with [[Def Jam Recordings|Def Jam]].<ref name="hitquarters.com">[http://www.hitquarters.com/index.php3?page=intrview/opar/intrview_Nick_Raphael_Interview.html "Interview With Nick Raphael"], ''[[HitQuarters]]'', 25 May 2005.</ref>
 
Jaz-O also produced "Rap Game / Crack Game," a track that appeared on Jay's second album ''[[In My Lifetime, Vol. 1]]'', which was released in the year of 1997.
 
Jaz-O then produced two tracks for Jay-Z's ''[[Streets Is Watching (soundtrack)|Streets Is Watching]]''. The album fared well commercially reaching #3 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, and was released May 12, 1998, by [[Roc-A-Fella Records]] and [[Def Jam Records]].
 
In the year of 1999, Jaz-O appeared on Jay-Z's "[[Nigga What, Nigga Who (Originator 99)]]", a single that was released from Jay-Z's third album ''[[Vol. 2... Hard Knock Life]].'' The song became a big hit in Jaz-O's career at that time. However, this would be one of the last times the two would work together on music, for thetheir friendship soured shortly afterwards.
