:camby: you obviously haven't heard too many cube songs.
Man, Cube was my favorite rapper at one point I heard AMW, DC, Predator, Lethal Injection, Laught Now Cry Later and his stuff with NWA. I am familiar with Cube, there's another thread where I was :cape: for him because someone tried to troll against him.

I already said making an objective top MC's list Cube is ahead, but P is my preference and P at his peak is a better rapper. Some of the people here who voted for Cube have even admitted P is a better lyricist and Ruler is as objective a user as we have on this site and he said P was iller as an MC too.

and p was on some alfalfa ballerina shyt what's your point?
My nikka shyt is corny he was a young nikka in that pic and that wasn't even a ballerina outfit fukk outta here with that shyt. Get all that extra shyt outta here let's talk music, because I guarantee P was more active on the streets than Cube was.

Never the flow thought :heh:

Noticed some of this was directed at me, so about to read. Your reading far too much into shyt, was no orchestrated plan to post early, I post whenever I may happen to have a chance to get on. Then I don't know who you be around or what your hearing then, cause you saying no-one talks about P? That's wild, you ain't hearing much Hip Hop conversation then. I'm around Hip Hop heads constantly daily. If someone's talking about Mobb Deep, that's him and Hav so.... that don't make much sense. Jay Z mentioned him as one of the best MC's of that time period not that long ago. Cube has classic verses and songs, who said he didn't? I'm not feeling No Vaseline as the top diss record though, too much fukking people in their ass' for my taste, but if that's what you like then cool lol. I applaud K-Rino for MUCH more than just his content, content isn't the sole factor, K is a GREAT lyricist, better than both P and Cube lyrically, he has more flows than Cube, there are lots of factors. Your saying this ish like it's fact, I disagree, Pac, Chuck D, KRS-One >>> Cube to me. If you like Cube better cool, but your taking like the things your saying are indisputable facts when there not. Lmao at Cube writing as powerful as Malcolm X speeches lmao. I find that absloutly ridiculous and insane.... Cube was not profound really, he was direct, he was a voice piece for Khalid at the time, he wasn't no black leader, what positive movements did Cube ever do? KRS-One is a MUCH more of a leader figure than Cube, hence why Cube looks up to KRS and not the other way round. It's not cause P was supposedly grimey like Cube SUPPOSEDLY gangsta and pro black, Infamous and Hell On Earth are exceptional albums all round, to me better than any Cube project ever. Also he has other shyt too which is dope, Cube had a drop off point and never really recovered, P has released good shyt recently. He probably has more work than Cube even though Cube came out first by some time. Prodigy a local legend? That's just ludicrous, Mobb Deep's music known well wide, when you say that kind of shyt it devalues your points. And I judge off music not fame and popularity.

This is just insane...but I can't really fault you b/c it sounds like you aren't familiar with Mobb Deep at all.

I don't agree with all of this because I'm a Mobb Deep supporter and think P is dope but the Cube parts are spot on my nikka. Comparing P to Cube is an insult

Heres to the clowns saying Cube isn't lyrical, doesn't have flow or any of that other bullshyt spewed in this thread.







"a bytch is a bytch is a bytch"

Yeah true lyrical masterpiece here lol. Wonder how long that took him to come up with? Lol.

I'm only joking lol, Cube is a good lyricist, but I don't feel he's great though.

That's just ludicrous, Mobb Deep's music known well wide, when you say that kind of shyt it devalues your points. And I judge off music not fame and popularity.

So when you talk to these "heads" and they don't talk about Cube its normal,but when nobody mentions Prodigys azz its due to lack of great discussion:rudy:...content wise Pac never covered the range of topics in depth the way Cube did....I already said why he's better than Chuck D,and same goes for KRS....and KRS came out first how could he look up to Cube?dont mean he aint respect em...he wasn't as quick to jump off that ledge as he was wit MC Shan and Nelly when Cube said "Self Destruction don't pay the fukkin rent",you got a subliminal not a full diss record back:russ:

Prodigy is a snooze fest for me to listen too,how you can listen to somebody lay down powerful words and really say profound shyt like Cube over the course of his run and say you would rather hear Prodigy is just beyond my scope...How can you compare a nikka who if he never existed the entire scope of rap as you know it wouldn't be the same with Prodigy who if he never existed it wouldn't even matter outside of Mobb Deep fans in the grand scheme:snoop:...talking about Cube got by on flow and aggression:dahell:.....do those things not make you a great emcee too if done right?does content and what you are actually rapping ABOUT not make you a better emcee? As an emcee Cube is much more important in every regard,from what he's saying,too his impact....I don't care who you say he was a mouthpiece for,his inspiration was his inspiration.....his music is the soundtrack to the thought process of much of black America at the time,he captured it in a time capsule with his lyrics as an emcee....you gon compare that with Prodigy making some shyt relateable to queens:childplease:...id rather hear what Cube got to say and I like how he says it over what prodigy has to say and how he says it....theres no contest

U can keep trying to ignore impact as if it doesnt matter when it does for the period we are discussing....im all for personal preference,but lets not make it like this is really a legit discussion in terms of whos greater than who....they not in the same realm in terms of respect:mjlol:...id even to say people love and respect Jadakiss more than prodigy nationwide,prodigy local:manny:...and yes fans of east coast rap are EVERYWHERE but that don't make you not local imo,just means nikkas who like east coast rap but don't live on the east coast like you:laff:..Jada is luved by all unlike P...keep prodigy in that tier,and oh yeah

Thats because your mouth is full of P's, pee. Cube is one of the greatest lyricists of all time.
