TYRONE GA!
:usure:

A STRONG argument can be made that both Kool Moe Dee and Canibus beat him.
It can, but they didn't IMO.
Aside from that, LL saying that he is "the most important rapper ever" has credibility. He is the first international solo superstar in rap. Probably the first to really take it to another level with a clothing endorsement, movies, and tv star. Def Jam was built on his success. He is not the GOAT, but he may actually be the Blueprint.
100%. But that's also why I have ZERO issues with him proclaiming himself as the GOAT. :yeshrug:

he's 100% on hip hop's mount rushmore too whether cats like it or not.

When you really really think about it...50 Cent was the new version of LL Cool J. Dominant in his era. Songs for the ladies and the streets. Always showing off the bodybuild. Not the most lyrical but still able to make powerful songs. Reputation for taking shots at other rappers on wax.

Don't disrespect LL like that.

50 had 1 good album, and one good group project.

LLs career spanned years, he left then came back strong again.

LL has a case to be the GOAT rapper (not in the lyrical miracle sense) but in the sense of what he's done broadly as a rapper, entertainer etc....for 40 consecutive years

I said what I said and I've said it for years. In the same vein that Nas was the new Rakim and Nicki was the new Lil Kim, 50 was the new LL. Let me also add that, aside from you dismissing Power Of The Dollar and Massacre as good albums, you failed to acknowledge that not only did 50 have classic mixtapes but he single handedly changed the mixtape game. Prior to 50, they were either called 'demos' or 'bootlegs' or "selling music from out the trunk.' 50 got Kay Slay and Whoo Kid to host cds of him doing freestyles and original songs and soon after demos were now called "mixtapes" where as "mixtapes" were originally done by DJ's only not some rapper with unreleased music. So till this very single day, whenever you hear a rapper say he's dropping a "mixtape" that is attributed back to 50's mixtape run in 2002. That's called legacy impact. And 50 also had a big comeback. 50's comeback was the success of the Power-verse. "Big Rich Town" is just one song yet it's iconized and has been active for 11 years now going on 12. It was the song that played at the very end of the the last episode of Power Force that ended a few weeks ago. 12 years for 1 song is different. That song has a shelf life similar to what "Bad Boys" is for the TV show Cops.

Nah, if you saw how LL mocked the hook that 50 wrote for “Paradise”, you would give 50 the pass to bomb back, lol. Not you necessarily, you nigs just haters, I mean like normal fair people. 50 actually showed restraint by waiting this long

LL would rap circles around 50
