It's about to be 2021, can we all agree Jay is the greatest?

[ISO]

Meant to post this on his 51st birthday but we gotta be honest with ourselves...

This man is spitting verse of the year contenders at 50



The whole year been a bunch of odes to Hov from underground to the mainstream, artists new and old, teenagers to 40 year olds, no matter where you from

"I'm Durkiooo but I'm Chicago Jay-Z"

 

[Izanami]

Agreed, Jay Electronica is

 

[OfTheCross]

Common knowledge at this point

 

[BmoreGorilla]

Yea I’ve felt this way for prolly five years now at least. He checks all the boxes. Dope lyricist, great catalog, versatile subject matter, has songs for every occasion, consistency, dope features, business acumen. What more could anybody really want?

 

[JustCKing]

No and we all will never agree on the greatest. It will never be that simple regardless of which name you throw out there.

 

[NoHalfWay]

Some will say Tupac Shakur

I’m partial to Nasir Jones

Shawn Carter is definitely up there

If there's a G.O.A.T. it's Jay-Z. He checks off all the boxes the skill, longevity, influence, classics, sales. I know who ever your G.O.A.T. isn't getting the treatment in 2020 that Jay-Z is and that's telling.

Sometimes people have to be objective.

This is all facts and Jay ain’t even my personal top 5. But objectively speaking he’s the best ever. If he was to release an album tomorrow it would be major news. That’s crazy

50M records sold, 50 years old, and if he drops tomorrow still moving the needle.

The success of 4:44 and the way that album was packaged from themes to music videos was G.O.A.T. shyt.

I'm glad some people can be objective.

 

[Roxx the King]

I have celebrated Ether Day for 19 years.

Jay is the GOAT.

Ether Day came and went this year

 

[AnonymityX1000]

He's too much of a biter & dyck rider to be the best.

 

[ThirdAct]

King's Disease is better than anything Jay has put out in over a decade

No...it wasn’t.

Nas stans stay overrating that album it was nice but relax. And music needs to have impact and be memorable.
