That’s like saying Grindin had impact or Let Me Love You had impact
Name me one era when Jada was clearly the top MC and had a chokehold on the game? In fact name an era when the Lox were dominating as a group? G-Unit had their run, Wu had their run - even Dip-Set had their run….when was the Lox era?
Even a group like Mobb who while never dominating, made an impact in that they created a sound that pretty much the whole of QB latched onto - what’s the Lox legacy as a group other than mixtapes, which to add G-Unit and Dip-Set were doing better in the Lox’s hey day
Impact by its true definition should be culture shifting moments (i.e The Chronic, The Blueprint, Get Rich, Late Registration - shyt even DS2). But agree that it shouldn’t be taken in isolation as what makes a rapper better than another because there’s been a lot of bullshyt that’s shifted the culture and not for the better. I’m picking up on that because fools are running around the thread talking about a song had ‘impact’ because they liked the trackThe impact argument is a copout to fit the narrative at the moment. Its largely a meaningless metric when it comes quality of music because artists are never 1:1 comparison.
Soulja boy certainly has had more impact on the direction of pop rap than freddie gibbs in his lane. But Freddie has shyt like pinatayou telling me as a fan of good rap music soulja is more deserving of being on a top rapper list cuz he basically was the forefather of a lot of wack shyt.
Hell lil b has more impact than a lot of nikkas favoriteslets not go down this road

Eminem had more impact than 99% of rappers ever while releasing dookie for the past 20 or so years.
GOAT

Pusha isn't being graded on a curve. Y'all just prioritize the "hit" element above the others. All Top 50 guys do not exceed in all 5 factors.

"Grindin" had impact though. "Let Me Love You" was Justin Timberlake's debut as a solo artist even though I'd say "Cry Me A River" was the record that really made his solo career.
Jada was never the Top MC and The Lox was never the top group. Same is true of Pusha T and The Clipse.
They don't have to exceed in all 5..
There has never been a point where nationally or regionally nikkas were wildin out to a pusha t album/verse/song/mixtape
This is Jim's whole point...
I think pusha last album was good, but Jim ain't tellin no lies

Got damn a thread about Pusha T went 12 pages
That says a lot considering if he is top 50 it’s just barely

Bow Wow went up against Soulja Boy tho breh. That nikka knows his lane and stuck with it
Push has a mark in every criteria you listed outside of a mainstream hit. And cats are using group songs/features for other artists so the bolded is debatable if not flat out false.
The bolded also again, proves the "hit" is the element used to trump the others.
You think Bow Wow can beat Cash Me Outside Girl in a Versus?Bow Wow went up against Soulja Boy tho breh. That nikka knows his lane and stuck with it
