yes. It is. Way better.that shyt ain't better than triple beams
On account of Jay telling his real story. Nas just out here with more project window tales and no real skill about it. Just spilling on the mic.
Hov out here flipping lines and inventing flows.

Doesn't make the songs good.
That shyt doesn't speak for me. None of nas albums when you listen to them are BETTER SOUNDING or have more appealing content.
Nas gets points on trying to do more, but I can't reward so many failed executions. And a lot of it sounds so bad I never want to hear it again.
Hov made things I wanted to hear over and over again.
Nas couldn't do that.
Good? Not just good. It makes them excellent. I agree.
This is entertainment.
If you wanna rap your ass off, but make it hard to listen to, I don't reward that.
Make something I wanna hear, then we'll talk.

well, we agree that's a matter of taste but what we can't get around is that both the critics and the fans at large, thought nas put out better material than jay over a 15 year span
see above
Critics were on nas nuts because they hate materialism so they run for the "let me grab the thing that sounds gritty and homely over the man swagging out and dropping life lessonswell, we agree that's a matter of taste but what we can't get around is that both the critics and the fans at large, thought nas put out better material than jay over a 15 year span

Y'all more impressed with raps that ramble over mediocre production.
The whole thing matters and Jay is better at it.
You say that like it's a bad thingI'm convinced @mobbinfms is the type to request the shyt no one listens to at the party
You sound like a cowardly conformist. Too afraid of what your friends might think to even form an opinion of your own.
If the DJ is playing trap and for some strange reason he's taking requests (where does that even happen
) and I wanna hear Shook Ones I'm requesting it :pdahellclean:
Magna has zero great songs. What Nas album is 70% garbage? Break it down track for track.
We judging rapping or criminal activity?

nope....if anything Jay has gotten more passes for his overt, materialism while Nas can't do one "commercial sounding" type song w/o getting heat even if the lyrics are actually more on a conscious tip
Im more impressing with elite poetic and technical skill combined with great-diverse subject matter, concepts and solid production than I am with trendy beats and little range in subject matter
nope
