"With that said, while I think 'The Wire' is the greatest, 'Breaking Bad' is the best," Phonte continued. "Hands down, if the primary purpose of TV is to entertain and engage, I dare you to find a show that is flat out more entertaining and addictive than 'Breaking Bad.'

"To put it in a Hip Hop perspective, 'The Wire' is Jay Z and 'Breaking Bad' is Nas," Phonte added. "In terms of everything he's accomplished and the way he's turned himself into a global brand that transcends Rap music, Jay Z is the greatest rapper of all time and you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who could argue intelligently against that point. But if you're asking me on any given day who I would rather hear rap? It's Nas all day. Period. In terms of flow, voice, content, skill, influence and overall bar for bar track record? Nas is the best because he makes for a more engaging listen. That's the best analogy I can make to sum up the everlasting 'Breaking Bad' versus 'The Wire' debate."

SPOT-ON.

And what he said about Lupe is spot on. I been telling my boys that for the past couple years. Hell, everything he said was spot on, although I don't know how I feel about son comparing himself to Arrested Development
