At this point, If someone says Rakim is the GOAT, it's equivalent to saying Kareem is the GOAT in BBall

This is a bad comparison.


As Kareem always had hof talent of the point gawd variety.
Plus also failed in final rounds.

Rakim was alone a complete solo act. Even when Eric b was there


So this was a bad comparison.

Plus you have never shown any dexterity or review or skill application as an emcee.

To honor any critique you posted. Especially when it is so flawed and you are not of actualized skill to actually critique rakim correctly.

Plus you have never made.
a rakim review of note.
in this community as well.
In real time or revision.
Which also speaks volumes. As your shortsighted comparison is easily debunked. Plus you have no idea about the history of basketball. Nor red auerbach to make a comparison.
or speak on the nba goat argument from the blue blood eastern seaboard as well.

You can't compare rappers to basketball players, lol, this is ridiculous.

There are specific awards to define greatness of a basketball player. Can he win MVPs, can he win NBA, Olympic medals, etc.

In music for example, Beyonce has over 30 Grammys and she's nowhere near the list of greatest musicians of all time.

In NBA Kareem has the most MVPs and he's considered one of the greatest.

In music a lot of musicians are snubbed out because of politics, etc. A lot of mediocrity has won all types of awards.

If you're mediocre at sports like basketball, your best hope is to be on a great championship team that can win even without your services.

In basketball you REALLY have to be elite at your skills to win the most prestigious awards.
