Nas "Live At The Barbeque" or Kendrick " Control"

[TOP LAD]

Nas came on the track as a up and comer/ rookie and made veterans look like scrubs, Nas flow on Live at the BBQ is immaculate. This was a time where nas persona and voice fit perfect with his villainous lyrics which is one of the coolest thinks Rap has ever seen.

didn't think it wouldnt be close.

These are two COMPLETELY different verses in regards two COMPLETELY different historical standards.


One is a triumphant announcement culminating in the birth of one Hip Hop’s greatest MC’s and popular music’s greatest poets.


One is a really really REALLY good battle rap that briefly brought on excitement as a popular MC actually eschewed the “buddy buddiness” that gad recently been going on and called out names in an effort to proclaim himself the new King Of Rap.



You can’t even really compare these two

That control verse was a whole bunch of nothing. Cool for the moment but is probably the most overrated verse of all time

Loved both, but you're not finding many verses better than Live at the BBQ, and some of those verses are Nas's
