I think people confuse Kanye's extraordinary consistency as GOAT level artistry.

Does Kanye's top 2-3 albums even come close to the top works of a Pac, Jay, Ghost, Nas, or BIG in terms of music?

College Dropout, Later Registration, Dark Fantasy and etc ain't GOAT level albums

Kanye's best disk wouldn't break Nas or Jay's top 3.

He's been consistent in dropping good/great projects but he never ascended to all time great level.

He doesn't have the songwriting ability or creativity of the all time greats.

Based solely on music alone, no other industry bullshyt, hype, album sales, affiliation, etc.

Nas or Scarface would be atop the all time list. I go back and forth you really can't pick one or the other when it comes to those two.

50 cent. Once candyshop dropped I knew nas and PAC could not compete. Neither of them could drop an all around banger like that

:what: so It Was Written and Untitled are the same album?

more like the Camel released the same album over and over

Kanye is the best based on music
Yep. same stale delivery over the same boom bap beats.

Illmatic and Distant Relatives are the same album?

but Reasonable Doubt and American Gangster gets a pass right?

nikka SHATTUP

DR is a collab album, struggle reach.
Man, Illmatic and IWW aren't even the same album. :stopitslime: Remember when Nas got some backlash because IWW was so different to Illmatic?
Ye, he became a colombian drug lord. I said content aside dipshyt.

Nas has released the same album over & over since the late 90's. The content is different, but the delivery & sound isn't. I know yall love him but dude is not even a legit candidate, irl you bring up Nas in the same conversation as Pac & Hov & nikkas gon look at you crazy.
You my dude you know this, but i have to disagree. Nas is always in the convo in real life and the net, and his albums dont sound the same. Only I am and Nastradamus but thats because they were really supposed to be a double cd. I would not argue if anyone said any of the mcs in the poll are the goat. All those cats made a major impact on the culture and society itself. Honorable mention at least to me anyways is GFK, my nikka has constant piff, and caried subject matter. I was just bumpin that underwater joint from Fishacale....... my god the was can spit!!!
