Havoc is not better than P, but he's criminally underrated.
I was thinking about this a couple months ago. Havoc is a real rapper's rapper. On paper his lyrics are top tier, his structure and flow as well, he just lacks a bit of mic presence to bring it all together.

He blacked the fukk out on this joint. Best verse on the song. Any other emcee with a little more charisma and this would be talked about as one of the top verses of that era.


Havoc would have taken this song if it wasn't for Prodigy's second verse, which is one of the GOAT rap verses. It wasn't fair. It's like Havoc scored 45 points and Prodigy scored 60.

At times he would have an equal or better verse. But he definitely took over once P changed his style.

Have you never heard P’s second verse on Hell on Earth? :dahell:

Exactly. And since P spit that verse on another unreleased joint from that era, my guess is P knew Hav had outdone him and put that verse on the end on some troll shyt

This was probably Hav’s reaction when he heard it.

Respect your opinion. Just not down with revising history.
Claiming Hav’s bars were always terrible is revising history. No one thought that. Hav was never considered bad in any aspect of emceeing. If you think I’m wrong post receipts to back up your claim.

Above the fray.

No one thought Hav was wack?

How many features did Hav get asked to do between their second album breaking through and their 3rd album?
Rapping features, not production requests?

Mobb came out during a golden age of hip hop......they were a good group, produced classic albums and material, but nobody bought a ticket to see Otis hear Havoc.

P was one of the best rappers of all time. Hav is nice but nowhere near P

This non responsive. Post receipts of people saying Havoc was terrible. You claimed his bars were always terrible. Back it up.
Silkk the Shocker got requested for features and he was a terrible rapper. So your point is meaningless.
Back up your claim.
