Underachiever, ala method man...cept meth is worse.

The best thing jada has going for him is his work within the group, his solo albums were all pretty much on the fence as a whole.

as far as strictly lyrics he is easily top 10 for me his albums are trash but method man is not worst to me because at least method man got a classic album and to he a better spitter then kiss.

Meth is worse because he had a way higher ceiling.

He's a personal favorite but it would be difficult to rank him.

In terms of sheer talent maybe top 20-30, but it took him over a decade to actually capitalize on that talent with a good album. The Last Kiss is legit though and absolutely blows away his other 2, no idea how anyone can say otherwise.

Top 40-50 is probably fair.

I cant say he was an underachiever he's been on several classic albums. I will say the bar was set high for him top 20 for sure.

Method still had a way better career and is still relevant to a degree. Kiss gots no classics, middle tier as they come.
:mjpls:

kiss only downfall is his mediocre catalogue, lyrically he isnt nowhere below top 30-50 all time imo.
