I like Cube better as a rapper and he's more well rounded as an emcee....plus I like his best albums better than Faces best albums....BUT overall catalogue wise Scarface has been more consistent...but his great albums aint as good as Cubes best

face

said it before n i will say it again..

face is certified 5150 in real life..all the suicidal tales head with screws in it...is shyt face dealt with since he was little..

lil troy say wha u want bout em..but he saved faces life n got em off that suicidal shyt he was on n put it on pen n pad..he had face in the different clubs doin freestyle shows with rp cola, big mello, k-rino, willie d..prolly the only time back in the 80s u would have seen watts, screw and dj premier in the same room along side dj daryl scott the guy who taught screw..


the street n dope game shyt face spits...is stuff he experienced when he was rydin around with lil troy and r-tis back when troy was in the dope game...also when lil j came n got em he learned from them cats as well




ice cube is kendrick lamar before kendrick lamar...he was a good kid in a mad city..he rapped what he saw...,,,that died out he became militant..n so own...


both were street reality story tellers...

but everything face was spittin..u could actually come to houston hit mlk...3rd ward, hiram clarke, orleans, crestmont, rosewood, 44 n see most of the shyt face was spittin..


hell u could go to sunnyside...back then n catch face, bun, pimp n 3-2 dippin sticks

Yeah Face is the truth, how did Lil Troy help Face initially? I'm not up on that story like that. Yeah no doubt, you can tell Face is hood like that, Cube not so much. Is that how Face originally met K-Rino then?. Yeah I've heard a lot about Cube not being a G like that, he was more of a kid that got taken to school etc. It doesn't necessarily take away from him BUT I think MUSICALLY you can HEAR the authenticity in Face's work, more than you can with Cube. Face is sincere. He has a lot more street depth that Cube has, when it comes to hood shyt. I've heard Cube wasn't even from exactly where he claimed but I'm not sure how true that is. Good Kid Bad City for Cube makes sense. Even though I think Cube is better than Kendrick of course. The militant thing felt gimmicky to me at points when Cube did it, it felt like he was a puppet, I didn't hear the authenticity in that, and if he was authentic why isn't he rappin about them topics now? Face still rappin that same shyt, K-Rino rappin about that same shyt, KRS etc, because there authentic, I never felt Cube was when it came to that shyt. I don't think he's like some extreme sell out, but I think some of the shyt was a bit gimmicky.

At least this one aint disrespectful like that Ice Cube vs Prodigy shyt :mjlol:

This can go either way, really I cant choose, I have these two at 6 & 7 on my all time favorite list and could/should be in the top 5 really if I wasnt a Chitown nikka.

But @The Ruler 09 I like how you dodgin my questions... where you from with your "favourite" talk?

the main thing here is cube didn't remain consistent as face but in his prime he was the man!

from 88' to 92' cube was that brother. i think even scarface would admit that... hell, face reached out to him and got him on the diary and that was 94'

as far as consistency goes, scarface wins. but cube in the prime of his career was in a class all by himself

i vote cube because that 88' to 92' run was just unbelievable. it was just that great :damn::whew:

we talkin' bout game changin' classics and a really great album here with the followin'....

straight outta compton album
amerikkka's most wanted
kill at will ep
death certificate
the predator

not to say face ain't one of the greats because he is, but cube at his peak and in the prime of his career was unlike anyone else

But @The Ruler 09 I like how you dodgin my questions... where you from with your "favourite" talk?

I'm hardly reading anything you say. I caught the end bit so I'll reply to that quickly. But your genuinely boring me, so I'm not gonna waste too much time on someone that's just trollin and is a bit stalkerish and obsessed lol. I'd rather discuss and debate with people who have something to offer, you are set in your hating and dikksucking ways so there's nothing to really gain from it. So when I see a post from you now I just ignore it, I only caught this one as I was skimming down and saw the word ducking lol. I'm not ducking anything, I was posting back on SOHH days and told people details about me , including location and shyt so there's nothing to duck, I've mentioned it to people on here too, but I DO NOT have to answer to you, I don't to anybody, and no amount of reverse psychology bullshyt will work on me. I will say what I want and when I want. It's no big secret lol. It's like when some idiot mentioned age, I didn't answer because your not going to make me say anything on demand, that's not how it works, have mentioned it subsequently on many other occasions so I have nothing to hide lol . With that being said, by and large I'm not planning to read your bullshyt anymore, so it's pointless meaningless typing, but if that's how you want to spend your time then so be it lol. Your too much of a troll, it's like talking to a bot instead of a human being and that's VERY boring.
