At the moment there's a few people I'd put above Monch, K-Rino, Z-Ro, Brother Ali, KRS-One, Nas etc. He's better than most of the mainstream by far though. And on a greatest list above a lot of people, he was great in Organized Konfusion and I enjoyed quite a few of his solos too.

How is he not active enough????

He released his first solo project in 1999 and didn't drop a sophmore effort until almost 8 years later in 2007. Took another 4 years to drop War. Then another 3 to drop PTSD. Dude has been going through issues, but you can't proclaim him to be better than people who are consistently putting out projects. I could make a thread saying the same thing about Jay Electronica anytime he drops a song, but dude isn't active enough to be put in the debate.

Jay Elect isn't anywhere near Monch and you could make this debate for someone if they just dropped a full album. Monch didn't drop a song he dropped the album of the year so far.

Lol how is saying Monch is the best rapper, after dropping the best album of the year, "ignorant shyt". You acting like I said Jim Jones or Drake or some silly shyt. Forget record sales, forget popularity, hit records. I'm talking about rapping ability and constructing great songs plus displaying great technical skills at the same time. Who currently is better? And don't answer if you haven't heard Monch new album.

What album is better? And I'm sure you haven't heard it. Stop fronting like you did, I know you haven't. And lmao @ you getting angry as fukk for no reason.

And you're a west coast nikka anyway, I don't expect you to really fukk with a predominately underground east coast rapper.

No you're angry. Look at your first post in this thread. Mad fukking Question marks, cursing for no reason. You're mad.

And I know you haven't heard it. But you can front like you have, doesn't matter to me. And LOL @ politely eat a dikk. Internet thugs are hilarious.
