There is no greater tell than where you land on Mega vs. Nas

I feel you. That's some ill sh!t and I kinda understand. I still feel Ghost does sh!t that very few notable rappers can do. Think of a top spitting MC right now and ask yourself if that MC can churn out full storytelling verses to a tight storyline/plot given to them and do it only a little over a weeks time and make it sound good over live instrumentals? He not only did it once, but TWICE. And both of those albums were pretty much critically acclaimed. The dude is still doing amazing things. And again...those ain't even his projects. Ya'll know what he does when it's his own sh!t.



I will say this. Ghost said "fiends jumpin out wit Garfield eyeballs"


that shyt had me laffin.



sidebar. My man Kallisto who was working close with Priest & Ghost these last few years had a nasty spill and hurt his back. We got our fingers crossed and shyt. Prayers are welcomed.

I doubt tragedy khadafi would let Saigon punch him in the face.

tragedy khadafi is more hood/tough than Cormega actually
I heard Havoc put hands on Tragedy. :ld:


I don't know about all that, but I place Trag above Mega as far as QB MC's go. Mega behind Nas, Prodigy and Tragedy IMO. Way more influential set the blueprint for QB MC's as a member of the Juice Crew with songs like


Literally you can hear how he influenced Nas, and he's the one that coined the term Illmatic. His first two albums are as good as Mega's best IMO.



Let's not forget about his contributions on The War Report he blacked out on that album, and was actually on the album more than Capone. Not to mention he mentored Noreaga and helped birth his style. The War Report is a legitimate classic arguably the best album of '97.

Mega's album last year was only a bit better than Tragedy's, he's still got it. :ld:

He did.


QB rappers go (As artists wise) : Nas > Prodigy > Mega > Tragedy > Nature
QB talent goes (Highest skill level of rhyming) : Nas > Nature > Tragedy = Mega = Prodigy
