When did Jay Z surpass Nas to you?

[Mac Brown]

Nas is a marginally better emcee than Jay, but Jay makes way better music.

I can understand this.....but to me they are equal legends from the 90's....

Never

Facts!

You strike me as a pop rap, mainstream, radio rap kind of fan. And there's nothing wrong with that. You just need to recognize it and stay in your lane.

Facts!

Jay probably has the most perfect rap career but even outside of coli on twitter, barbershops, boards and casual circles in schools and work they'll still be an argument for Nas.
Now you can say its isolated to a board or something but thats not the case, a Jay vs Nas argument pops up everywhere so how undisputed is it really?

 

[blackslash]

Jay been treated like a top tier artist for 20+ years

we'll see what happens when nas album come out and if people care about that garbage

 

[Nomad1]

Jayz fans are retarded and pretentious just like the camel himself.
When has Jayz ever passed Nas in rap?
Illmatic, iww, I am, stillmatic, lost tapes, life is good, etc shyt on kingdom come, American gangster etc etc.

Who the fukk listens to half of Jayz shyt besides vol series and blueprint one and three

Now compare 444 to Life is good. Nas made a real grown man album, you can clearly see the progression of Nas to an aged and humbled rapper.
Jayz gave nikkas more of his "I'm above you, I know what's best for black ppl and rappers, yadada" talk.

Jayz is absolutely trash compared to Nas.

4:44 is a really good album but the Jay stans seem to want to ignore the fact that MCHG, BP3 and Kingdom Come were trash. He made a good album just enjoy it and stop with the Jay vs Nas nonsense

 

[IllmaticDelta]

What are u retarded? He told the story backwards. Said sentences backwards and was completely coherent and clear thruout the whole thing. There was zero flaws in his storytelling. U don't know wtf u talkin bout.
