Are the Lox overrated?

[Zero]

Yes. I got boys that talk like they tribe or OutKast or mobb. They don't have one classic album together or solo. Classic tracks and verses, no classic bodies of work.

I'm a fan but these are facts

Yes they are overrated. “WATS” was damn near 30 years ago and they haven’t had a LEGIT follow up to that…. None of them have over a B+ solo catalogue…. And the B+ goes to Styles…. They’re good rappers…. Skilled… talented and all that. But their bodies of work? fukk no. No way in hell should they ever be mentioned to over “Mobb Deep” like EVER

Dog I get more angry at that comparison than anything Else


Peak prodigy is in a whole different level. Hell washed Prodigy solo work is clearly better than the Lox solo work.

imo if you made a top 5 albums solo Prodigy gonna have the first 3 spots

and group albums

mobb deep got all 5 spots

You gotta understand those old LOX freestyles and mixtape joints resonated with certain folks the same way your favourite albums did with you.

Add in the fact that Jada may be the GOAT feature rapper and there you go..

This right here; the LOX really got stamped when D-Block was formed. It was when the mixtape scene was a thing. All of that is lost because of the digital realm......they were pre-dat piff.


you had 2 be there.

Yeah and it’s honestly not even close…. Like take Jada for instance…. That nikka output is piss poor… always has been. Now if he had like a classic solo to stand on… and maybe a 4/5 arguable Album after that it would make sense. Dude is super fukkin’ lazy… and doesn’t even seem interested in dropping music. Him not dropping after all that “Verzuz” shyt told confirmed everything I’ve ever thought about him.
