A son is supposed to surpass the father. That type of progress is natural if the lessons are observed. At the same time Jay been in the background since Kane was doing it so instead of standing toe to toe he came back with another generation of rappers. You gotta give Kane that.

This is a case of showing respect to your predecessors. Especially when there's a direct link. Jay himself wouldn't entertain this kind of foolishness :francis:

BDK is a generation earlier than Jay despite the age difference being small. The technical side of rap grew a lot. I'd say you
could have said it in a way that didn't sound so disrespectful
That doesn't make him feel relevant and "real"

The age difference is basically nonexistent. It’s like a one year difference if that. And they was both rapping at the same time and running together. It’s just that Kane was superior in that time frame. Jay improved like crazy and blew past him tho but there’s no reason for all the disrespect.

how stupid when he literally said jay is a better rapper? :mjlol:

he clearly knows the difference

He clearly doesn't

which is why I explained

Get off my dikk, you always quoting me with some fake ass narrative and not acknowledging what I post, you a loser

Royce was talking about lyrically, he just didn't explain, Kane is a great rapper ain't nobody shytting on him rapping you fukking moron

Kane got one of the dopest voices and flows ever, he can rap just as good as jay if not better

but Jay is way more lyrical Kane

Royce is a one dimensional rapper, so he thinks lyrical ability is the only quality in measuring what a good rap is which was my point

now get off my dikk you dumb ass c00n

Kane is a better rapper and MC than Jay

but Jay is a better lyricist and a better ARTIST

all these things have different names because mean something different

I clearly said in my post Jay-Z is a better lyricist

The guy said Jay-Z was a better rapper, and he confusing MC and rapper, both terms because none of them apply to what royce was saying even though he jay can out rap him, he really meant jay got better lyrics, which he does, but that's not out rapping someone

Kane is a better MC and Rapper

Jay-Z is a better lyricist in my reply, I never said Jay-Z was a better rapper, h

Royce think he a lyricist but he just a rapper he not lyrically

dumb ass culture vultures like you don't know shyt about this game and never picked up a mic in your life

Y’all dudes so fake/dishonest with this rap shyt. Cats like Rakim, Krs, & Kane could only be goats based off impact. Not their catalog of music. It’s rappers that I hardly mess with that just has more music I like from them than legends. y’all shyt on rappers way worst. So stop trying to make these celebrities more special than us.

He wasn't talking about catalogs. He was talking about spitting. To act like there is gulf between what Jay can do and what Kane can do is just stupid.

I personally think Jay is the better artist, but I think Kane can out rap Jay.

Ok let’s also clear up this Fu Scnick point. Nas made this a good ass line and ppl took it literally.

Jay, admittedly, was always influenced by current trends. In the early 90’s, you had Fu, Treach, Bone, and Jaz O (arguably his biggest influence then) doing the fast rap style. Other rappers (Common, Das) incorporated it as well including Kane on a few tracks. I remember Guru taking shots at rappers like that during 92 on Flip the script.


still you try to rap and even claim a new style
but rolling your tongue’s been played out for a while
And you don’t don’t sound fly so why you doing that
You had a dope track but you’re wack and you ruined that
I couldn’t make out what you were saying
Your diction is jumbled whereas me I’m conveying


Jay was trying that but also admired G rap, Nas, Kane and Big L so he incorporated that into his style.

Jay arguably should be the poster child, along with Jim Jones for most improved rappers cuz he improved exponentially from 94-99.

Then he incorporated Philly rapper shyt into his flow and Austin Powers for a bit. :lolbron:


Nas referencing Fu Schickens prolly made them bigger and funny thing is, it was mostly Chip Fu and not the whole crew.

Once again, because of how Royce said, you were confusing MC and Rapper, saying Kane is better MC and Jay is a better rapper
that's what I mean what I say you are confused, because you were confused by Royce's words

when Jay is not a better rapper than Kane, Jay is a better lyricist, that don't automatically make you a better rapper

rapping is the physically act of delivering the bars, Kane is incredible at that, better than Jay, he got a better delivery than jay got more swag than jay, he can do every flow jay can do, plus he got a better voice, so ain't no way jay can out rap him

now when you come to putting down thoughts, making songs, and shyt like that, yes Jay is way better, but that's not out rapping

that's the point I was making

Royce really meant Jay has way better lyrics than Kanye but that doesn't equal out rapping, Royce doesn't get that which is why he never rose to elite level in rap
