OG brehs... why's Kool G Rap never mentioned with the greats?

[Redwing80]

You always hear Nas, Biggie, Pac etc. for obvious reasons by why's KGR never in the lists?
His early shyt is before my time but I got all his albums from the 90s, this nikka is
From 95 to 2006, his flow is insane

How was he looked at during the 90s?

 

[mobbinfms]

He's always considered one of the GOATS.

 

[I AM WE ARE]

it depends on who you talk to alot of people say his style is similar to scarface
dude has always been on point imo

 

[T.he I.nformant]

I thought he was always mentioned

 

[Redwing80]

What's his best album?

 

[JahFocus CS]

G Rap is a legend. He didn't achieve the same level of mainstream success as other artists in the conversation, but based on skill and flow? He's right up there.

 

[The Ruler 09]

As a rapper he's mentioned, as an artist not as much. In my top 20 regardless.

 

[The Ruler 09]

What's his best album?

I bump Live And Let Die a lot.

 

[Lord Mecca]

He's always considered one of the GOATS.

Came in here just to say that

 

[Sensitive Blake Griffin]

one of my favorite rappers ever, his storytelling ability is up there with the greatest in hiphop

Anyway, G Rap is considered an elite GOAT by those in the know. He, Rakim, and BDK are the holy trinity of golden age lyricists. And his verse on The Symphony yoy can argue is the GOAT hip-hop verse, period.

THE GODFATHERS WITH NECRO IS THE shyt
