Is Dave east top 3 new school rapper?

[A Tribe Called Quest ™]

To each his own

A$AP Ant has always been a weak rapper and the worst in A$AP lol

And I bet Hate Me Now is better than all them shyts

Riff Raff always comes through with dope music, him and Sosa is like MJ/Pippen

Around the time of his Bath Salts verse, he WAS, but now he's built up a catalog that's ahead of pretty much everyone in the crew other than Rocky, who's basically just living off his debut mixtape at this point. Hate Me Now isn't even the best East project, that's P2, and I still wouldn't even put that ahead of Ant's stuff, especially on the production side. East is missing something, I'm just not sure what it is. He doesn't know whether he wants to be a story-teller over sample based production (which is something he's very good at), or an IG model that wants to make watered down trap records.

P2 is good but not even top 3 Dave East releases as far as I’m concerned

What Ant project should I check out? I just remember his Bath Salts verse and every A$AP nikka effortlessly outrapping him in the Flex freestyle. Always thought he was carried by production
