Busta had a good run of hits in the 90's and 00's

Jada's legacy is mostly off mixtape freestyles, guest verses and the Verzuz battle

Never was a fan of Joe, mediocre rapper but he hung around good ones like Pun and DITC so he got propped up

The versuz battle with Ja had me realized that Fat Joe really doesn’t have joints like that. The fact that he played still not a player a song he didn’t produce or rap on was embarassing. :dead:
Joe had a couple okay songs that hiphop
heads meds with.. then he went pop and caught one with lean back. He thought he was better than he actually is lol. Joe is ok but :yeshrug:

Busta definitely paved the way for other unique artists like Missy and Ludacris and really brought a lot creativity to music videos. Fat joe drops a hit every 5 years somehow. Jada has just never had a bad verse. legends in rap maybe. Legends in entertainment is more reserved for people like Michael Jackson, Elvis,2pac,Bob Marley people who just transended cultural boundaries and are generally loved by everyone . 50,Dre,Cube, snoop ,Jay Z ,puffy (not so much now) are people they still get interviews to talk about shyt they did 20 years ago.

Busta stamped based on personality and his over the top videos. He was kind of a pioneer in that regard


i like Jada and Joe so I won’t belittle them

we at a point where everyone is a legend now because of the internet. If you fell off back In the day. It was over. Now dudes like Uncle Murda have a successful 20 year career.

so I only go by icons. And none of those guys you mentioned are icons imo
Yeah anybody who makes more than a 100k a year from music is a successful artist. 50 really saved Uncle Murda tho. I'm pretty sure 90 percent of his income is just hype man show money
