Where does Fabolous rank among New York Rappers?

[Street Knowledge]

Like if I’m ranking the greatest NYC rappers of all time where does Fab Fall on that list? Is he top 15?

Over 20 years in the game, plat plaques, several big hit records. Great mixtape discography

Some of the people you named are from jersey

 

[BK The Great]

Maybe top 50-100, he was everywhere in the early 2000's

 

[NoirDynosaur]

Loso’s run in the early 2000’s plus the DJ Clue and his mixtapes made him one of the best punchline kings along with Banks, Weezy and Jada

Top 20

 

[BaRRyG]

As far as what he's accomplished in the game and his ability to hold his own with top tier mcs he should be in the top 25.

That’s fair

 

[Mastamimd]

25 or so

 

[jadillac]

He's top 7 and you're either disconnected or hating if you say otherwise.

Nobody from his era (other than Lox) is still rapping on a mainstream level, still getting features etc and most importantly, still dropping nice bars.

Jay
Biggie
Nas
X - really didn't have much heat after 2003
Jada - still doing it
Fab -

 

[King Ming]

not top 25. But top 10 mixtape MCs

 

[BlueHeffner]

“In Brooklyn its Jay, of course BIG, after that its me, F-A-B”

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

Never saw him as an elite guy.He's always referencing himself to Michael Jordan, but he's more of a Larry Hughes.Decent.Wouldn't rank in my top 25, tho.

Is he better than:
RZA
Puff
Lil Kim
Ja Rule
Lauryn Hill
NORE
Sticky Fingaz

He's better than at least half that list but these are crazy
