Jay Z is the most overated MC in history

[Kitsune]

Nah fam.... These days a nikka would put young thug and uzi vert in they top 5.. shyt Is scafy

what difference does it make, mainstreams rap isn't much different from pop music, it carries the same depth and serves the same function. Jay Z would pull a young thug is he was capable, trust me

 

[MidnightMercenary]

bruh he fell out of my top 10 after 2 days


but you'll forgive me....coz knowing where you from....

I think spiggidy Spice 1 has leapt outta nowhere into that 10th spot

Wow how can Spice 1 go from nowhere near your top 10 to in it in like a month for some shyt

But that's cool although he's not in my top 25. I like him tho.

 

[Run Up]

Bro, for me and my boys this viewpoint is a given .... none of us will ever willingly drop a Jay tune at a session .... EVER .... if anyone mentions top MCs of all time talk ... NOBODY is dropping Jay in their top 5 because:

1. We rate pure lyricism and creativity
2. Lyrics we can relate too
3. Deep music that means more than a top 40 chart
4. His voice is corny and nasaly as fukk and he always trynna copy new nikkas and its embaressing

Dudes that put Jay in their top 5 are the same dudes that call Beyonce the Queen of RNB and call Biggie the GOAT rapper

Sounds like a crew full of fukkbois to me

My top 5 of 1996 is

1. ATLiens
2. Ironman
3. Reasonable Doubt
4. Endtroducing
5. Hell on Earth

1994-1996 are the best years in hip hop no question

Just hadn't listened to him in a long ass time and ran through his discog during my coli classics thread and then again lately and it's amazing.

[I love Latina women]

[u mad son?]

Sounds like a crew full of fukkbois to me

What

 

[L. Deezy]

Im sorry, you cant be overrated being in the top for so many years...

Thats goes for Jay, Nas, or whoever...

Yall spend too much time discrediting accomplishments on here.. its cool not to like an artist, but you cant discredit when its over 20 years

 

[ISO]

Nas shouldn't be elevated to the status he is but he's really good

How Sway? Critical and commercial success, influence and impact, longevity, respect, battles, classics, skillset. Nas has it all to be in the G.O.A.T. conversation.

This thread is some bullshyt...

GOAT convo? Sure. Not outright GOAT nobody else in discussion.

Speaking of 1996. I just put on The Score right now

Top 10 of 1996 and pretty damn close to top 50. If I had to chose I'd say it's around 60

Lauryn Hill so talented

this is one of the dumbest post I seen this entire year on the coli.

 

[BUSINESS AS USUAL]

I think Jay is overrated but the most overrated is Eminem. His music is almost unbearable

Facts

 

[big bun]

It's a crime to have two classic albums now?

Two?
