Jay-Z is not top 5 !

[RebelHebrew]

This nikka said jay aint better than cube or face

 

[Illeye buckmatic]

Or maybe their tastes just different? Thats suppose to be my top 5 jus cause its everyone elses

No shyt. But if someone said Jordan isn't top five that's their opinion. They're entitled to it but who the fukk are y'all to take away my opinion that they don't know shyt about sports It wouldn't make me mad that's their right but you can't force me to take them seriously

how jay is above nas when his best album isn't even top 10 new york album and how biggie above nas when nas' 2 first album's are respectively better than biggies

It's all a matter of preference Breh.

Depends what grading system you are using. If Jay is in your top 5, then guys like Em and LL can be in your top 5 as well. You really have to think about what you are saying.

And Jay is easily better that Scarface. Why is Scarface even in this convo?

The problem I have with putting NAS ahead of Jay is that NAS is being outworked and out performed by his contemporary. Jay leads Nas in most metrics. This is sad because NAS is one of the best to ever do it he just doesn't seem to have the interest in doing it well as often as Jay has. That matters to me, but I understand why it doesn't matter to others.

Are you saying Jay is better than Nas now?
LIG was damn near classic. MCHG was trash.
Nas' features lately have been razor sharp too.

@mobbinfms where does Havoc place in your list?

:havdahell:
1 or two spaces ahead of Jay

This thread is not about hate or love. I'm too old to have feelings for these rappers. The thread is about hierarchy, nothing else.

Yet you make a thread singling out an artist, and stating your opinion as fact with an exclamation point and all. You obviously feel very strongly about the subject breh

Jay is def top 5, no debating

 

[mobbinfms]

I didn't say that.
My point was, they don't have to be in everybody's top 5 since music is subjective.
Having that demand is just stupid.

This is what you said

But like I said, if one was to present the list of rappers you chose, I would question the seriousness of that persons list.

I don't know about this. I haven't been following their careers that much in the past years, but Nas' work from what I've seen was more mature and artistic. Jay just being a dikk riding fakkit as usual hopping on different waves.

I want to test something out. Why is Jay top 5?

This is what you said

Right, and this is the part that I guessed you would misunderstand.
I was actually talking about the other group of rappers that he chose....

"Bleek, Wiz, Lil Zane, Soulja Boy and Bubba Sparks".

^ These were the rappers I was referring to in that post. "I would question the seriousness of that persons list." Makes sense, right?

That makes a lot more sense.
