i just was thinkin' bout this. really, who else was there that could spit like ya favorite underground mc and keep them on their toes but at the same time give the streets and clubs some shyt they could feel? 
once pac and biggie died, who else was there but jay-z to hold down hip hop mainstream wise?

Meth coulda had it
Nas coulda had it
Dmx took it
Jay squeezed in with consistancy. Jay wasnt really jay we know until the blueprint

he did, but he couldn't do what jay could lyrically
meth is a coulda woulda shoulda. he never brought his a game when it counted for his own solo albums. always was better as a group member
nas could never make brige the gap between the clubs and the shyt for hip hop heads, outside of oochie wally (i'll even count you owe me cause i fukked with it, lol)
dmx was huge but lyrically? he ain't won't hangin' with jigga
the stars aligned for jay with the blueprint star wise but he definitely worked hard and kept at it

I aint talking lyrically tho
Dmx was a bugger star than jay those fiest cpl years
Nas was idk. I liked i am but it was a step down and i dont gotta speak on nastradamus
Meth was. Meth most dissapointing imo. Tical 2 was a lil too little too late

dmx was bigger but look at what i was askin' in the op
shyt, nelly was up there in popularity with jay z at 1 point too but he won't nobody who lyrically nikkas was studyin'
but i'm talkin' talent wise as well too
who else could keep ya favorite underground "hip hop" on their toes with their raps but then make some shyt for the club
nobody but jigga
nas had a hard time post 96' and i got so much love and respect nas. bruh is 1 of the greatest of all time. but the late 90's were a hard time for him
meth never really matched up to the aura he had. he was good but great? naw. and i fukked with both tical and tical judgement day too
Nas I think also, I think Nas was quite important in that sense mainstream wise.

Mase was there, but he left before he could even reach his peak.
He definitely should have been around during the early 00s.

Eh. I dont look at dmx as someone whos wack lyrically. His first album a classic. Seco e album not my fav but others call it classic for the style shift into 99-00s.
X had great introspective lyrics. Dude wasnt dropping bars he was dropping emotion i cant failt him on that.
And then there was x was wack tho.
Meth coulda been a great but he just didnt take it. Hooks like cream. Bangers like bring da pain. Rnb crossover with all i need. How high another banger. The what. Shadowboxin. Method man the song.
I dont think he wanted to be a star like that thi. Dude seems content being a team player but he was one of the hotter rappers in nyc in 1997. The bad pr wu forever got conpleely changed that up tho.
Jay took biggies spot. Just slid right in
After pac and big died puffy held it down for a good minute.
