so yall saying he was better than a young jigga?
Easily,...
Jay was not in any distinction near doc as a talent at all.
Doc never used his contemporaries to ramp and also never souled't out as a contemporary yes man either like jay did with jaz.
Nor, is he lumped in as a collateral damage from the ruthless, or death row era because of the accident.
Jay has no real distinction as an emcee past self grandiose false narrative pr about his stature.
Jay is not in the goat convo and never was.
Jay was to late a start and lost to many battles, needed help in battles or covered up losses in battles before he got on.
Including getting served by nas as a contemporary and jaz as a mentor as well.
So, there is no way for jay to be given a nod as better than doc historically.
Jay never once showed what doc could do.
Nor did jay do it when the bpm's and sonic landscape.
were completely different for generations before he got on, either.
Doc was light years better than jay.
Doc was a technical marvel before the styles era and before the technical revolution.
With no loss of flows, convincability or skills or intangibles song to song.
While, jay had to basically ramp up via exact consulting help from big l, bad boy sessions, sauce and jaz.
Doc may have wrote with cube and ren.
Yet, doc never needed them to aid him.
in the doc's skill maturation process like jay had to do with his contemporaries.
Plus, jay lost technical skill, when not around those principals.
So, that means jay never had his own actual technical rubrick and is also a styles morph.
Or biter with excellent commercial jiggy sellout artist based MIC presence.
