Because you couldn't force that the type of star quality that meth has/had out of kiss...method man coulda been GOAT status, he had everything going for him that an MC would need. Looks (no homo), charisma, flow, lyrics, voice...without meth wu coulda very well been local.

He had all the tools but didn't really take them as far as he could have, he had a better career in a straight up comparison but he was supposed to.. kiss is dope is fukk but he NEVER had that much potential to be a well rounded artist like that..he's a spitter, that's about it.

Yeah Meth should of been on top, he should of at least had a DMX level career / run. Where the fukk is "Crystal Meth", we've been waiting 7 years for another solo album :damn:

Kiss hasn't dropped an album worth more than a 3.5/5 for me, he's way too hit and miss and repetitive in his subject matter / style. Straight spitting he's up there, but everyone gets sick of punchlines after a couple of years. It's the same with Fab, cat's can't relate cos they don't give up anything personal.

In saying that, first Lox album still gets a lot of burn.

bytches from eastwick :lawd:

Not anywhere close. No solo classic, no amazing songs, and he's extremely redundant. Styles over jada. And being a better mixtape rapper than album maker is not a good look.

Since he has no 5 mic album, he cannot be put up on the top 40 on that alone.

who cant relate to kiss & fab? people from the burbs?:laugh:

and who cares about them not getting personal anyway? I don't care about the lives of these rappers. I mean, if you want to spill your guts, i'll listen but that's not a priority.

The Cachemist producing a Jada album? :wow: That would be a classic but instead we'll get another Willie the Kid or Roc Marciano collaboration :stopitslime:

I'd rather listen to a Roc Maricano than a Jadakiss album. As for Jadakiss, I always found him to be mediocre.

method man was mostly great for his star-power.

and you have to respect it because without him, wutang would just be a regional collective. but in terms of just listening to him by himself, he was never a first ballot hall of famer or anything like that.

:what: You serious? You'd rather listen to an album full of this?

"Praise the gourd lord, swing the iron sword/
The boy carry ratchets, so why would you try'em for?
Incredibly gifted, unassisted, medusa master/
Reduce the mass of b*stards to glass placards/
Unseen dream, reconciliation is cream, getting paper by the ream/
shiny louis shirt, silver stitched the seam/
pitch scripts to jews who run the silver screen/
My bunny pale, frail, sipping Pale Ale with Harrison, your bars fail, they pales in comparison."
