Rae cool, but his abstract style prevents him from truly being in a top 5 list for rappers or just lyricist as well

Not only does he not have stand out verses, but on the few universally accepted classic songs he happened to be featured on, he was outshined

verbal intercourse (nas)

C.R.E.A.M (deck verse & meth hook)

Ice cream (cappadonna & ghost)

Triumph ( damn near everybody)

and a legit top 5 rapper usually have a classic solo song or two thats recognized and/or loved by the masses..Rae doesn't

Everybody has a right to opinion, but fact is more legit reasons could be made why he shouldnt be top 5 then why he should

Incarcerated Scarfaces
Knowledge God
The Faster Blade
Surgical Gloves
Ason Jones
State Of Grace
Flawless Crowns

The bolded is the only one that could be took into consideration..

and even then, it would still rank very low against other rappers who are considered legit top 5 rappers/lyricists and their classic solo songs

that song didnt even have a theme or meaning to it neither, he was just rambling on about things that the average person couldnt understand or comprehend..
