Does Big Sean belong in the same category as Drake, Kendrick and J. Cole?

I always wonder why KRIT isn't in these big 3 conversations. He's honestly 2nd to Kendrick

Every generation has its "Scarface" it seems (Highly respected by his peers yet not revered as highly by the Masses). Sadly, due to sampling restrictions and and a loaded field, my nikka KRIT got relegated to a secondary tier. :wow:

But it's cool, though. 1Train spoke volumes. :mjgrin:


SIDE NOTE: While he had a right to be frustrated, I'm glad he let that shyt go. It was an albatross that held his music back. We get it, my nikka. You're a Southern Rapper who can rhyme with the best of'em. Show us. Let your music do the work. He seems to finally be doing just that nowadays.

Absolutely NOT. he is a clear tier below them, above Wale and Meek probably slightly above or same tier as Kid Cudi.

Wiz Khalifa is above Sean as well, but not on Drake, Cole, Kendrick level either

These post are spot on.

Sean is 2nd tier, with Meek, Wale & Wiz.

You know what, this is an interesting debate. Wiz's early Taylor Gang/Mixtape run was strong as hell too. :ohhh:

Seems like that Second team all-decade (Leaders of the New School Edition) is:

Sean, Wiz, Krit, Meek*, and Wale

I wonder what we do with artists like Gibbs and Currensy?

krit never hit any level in the mainstream so I had to take him out the running. He is near the bottom if I include him bc I thought he had next but he went nowhere

I really don't see how Tyler gets left out of these. Makes better music than all of them and has the numbers.
