shyt I always preferred Nature to Mega. Thats not to take away anything from Mega either as he's nice too. Its a shame how QB artists dont have a good repoire. The talent thats come out of QB, and Queens in general is discussion worthy. Queens is like the Tarheels or UCLA of Hip Hop. Too many prospects that should have been all stars.

Never understood the hype about Nature even in his prime he was Esco jr....ILL but nothing really stood out or set him apart. Foulness was my shyt tho

lol@ Nature being better than Mega in any era

'The Montana Way'....OG testament...freestyles ect. Mega dropped back in the day shyts all over that half baked firm album the idea that Cormega was some 'wack nikka' in the 90s is revisionist history....He stepped it up crazy in the 2000s but he was already ridiculous

man get the fukk out of here cormega mos definitely does not have better rhyme schemes then nature g rap trag hell even noreaga or
prodigy and havoc

most of mega syllables does not haven match up in syllable count

he don't even rhyme nothing don't have better syllable usage then g rap etc

Lol nah mega is WAY deeper than Nas on a lyrical level. Dude is more of a poet. The only thing I'll say is that Nas is more polished as a rapper, but don't get what I'm saying confused though...Nas is the greatest rapper ever IMO when you put the entire history and formula together.

But anyone who doubts Mega's ability to go neck and neck with Nas is just trying NOT to listen. Even if you were to ask Nature, Prodigy, Havoc and artists from QB etc..they would ALL tell you that mega is better than they are...and always has been since growing up.

And to keep it 100...I honestly think he is the ONLY dude who could go rhyme for rhyme with Nas and come out on top...I honestly think Nas himself would hesitate to challenge Mega on that angle...Jay Z? Yeah Nas probably would tell you his was nicer than Jay...Mega? I think he's look around first to make sure no one was listening...lol

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4kSLbTvioM"]"Who Am I?" The new Cormega DVD & Soundtrack(5 min trailer) - YouTube[/ame]

The biggest influences in QB rap wise (aside from Shan) are Trag and Mega....listen to Trag's Live Motivator circa 1986...

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DefrRhnvDY"]Marley Marl feat Tragedy Kadafi-Live Motivator - YouTube[/ame]

Now listen to Mega in "Set it Off" 1991

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4jJj88xq50"]Cormega & Blaq Poet (PHD) - Set It Off - YouTube[/ame]

and Going Straight Up (1989)

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRhUmib4mes"]Going Straight Up - Hot Day ft. Arkim, Cormega and Shahid (OLD SCHOOL QUEENSBRIDGE) - YouTube[/ame]


Then listen to Nas on Live at the BBQ.

There's obviouslly ALOT of imitation and influence between the 3.

Nah...he's way heavier lyrically imo...not even close. The evidence speaks for itself...check out the acapellas "Aint Gone Change" or "5 for 40" or "One Purpose"....then compare that to nas's acapella on HHID


The only thing I will say is that Nas is 1) more creative (aka songs like I gave you Power & Rewind make him a genius) and 2) he is smoother when he transitions syllables in his flows.


But I'll take megas verse in Thun & Kicko over Ether

Like I said..all this "not even close" talk is a joke...lol...unless u talkin in the other direction...aint no way is Nas "not even close" to Mega in ANY aspect of rapping...lol..god damn nikkas really love Mega out there..its pointless to even argue this shyt tho cause ive noticed nikkas dont even think clear when it comes to Mega...Nas is a flat out ALL AROUND better rapper than Mega...

Nature definitely was not on Mega's level...mega was more comparable to Nas and Trag..they just work on a different tier

But yeah Nature is a loss to the art...dude was nice 12-14 years ago. He had tons of potential...but I just don't think he was business minded enough to make it happen. This documentary should have come out circa 1998.

The fukk? :wtf:

lol nope...it's all opnions...but cats just think you are DEAD WRONG....lol I don't know who or what you've been listening to.

I myself first started listening to them when both their careers started and have weighed all the material equally...nas is better in some ways, mega in others.

Nas has the best catalogue...Mega has been more consistent.

Talent wise, Nas is a decible better, but it's close. Even he would acknowledge that. And every artists in QB would agree with me...including Bravehearts.
