Prodigy.

Styles P had more lyrical longevity though.

Prodigy's prime was better, but his floor was so low. Dude wasn't even rhyming at one point. Taking their entire careers into account I have to say Styles

Idk about harder (⏸️) but P’s better/greater, imo…nobody raps like P, they may have the content but not the rap style/flow/etc….

SP is a better rhymer/wordsmith, for what that’s worth. It’s easier to rhyme like SP than P tho, imo…madd people (can) rhyme like SP

P by far

ghost to me has always been a forced “top” rapper. like dudes really think he fukking with kiss
not saying he trash but to me he legit a :yeshrug:
Type rapper
Same here. I was no doubt a fan tho and I respect SP…but for real, he’s more of a “shock value” type dude than a mind blowing MC, imo. He’s dope tho, don’t get it twisted…but yeah, he’s no Kiss. No P either

I wanted to hold my opinion back till I got other posts so there wouldn't be any biased in my thread, plus I'm still undecided

I think they're both great lyricist, but I think Styles is like 1% the harder rappers, but I think Prodigy is a slightly better lyricist, it's close to a tie between the two in general

thanks for the posts brehs, keep posting if you want, there's no right or wrong answer to me, I didn't even vote in my own thread, lol

Might edge it out to P...had 50 like :whoa: on the og pearly gates...made him change it


tbh honest I NEVER liked 50 anyway, dude comes off like a bully and to bully like half the rappers in the game, but I'm not surprised he got checked by Styles and The Lox, he needed to be checked by someone for trying to be the East Coast Deebo and shyt

plus 50 Cent was a very AVERAGE lyricist, never understood what Dre and Em sign him tbh. Unless it was the appeal of a hustler getting shot 9 times and surving, he wasn't even the best rapper in G-Unit, the best mc in the group was Lloyd Banks

I agree with every thing you said except for the bully part he was too much of a victim to be a bully

I just meant a bully as a mainstream rapper, it was like he expected every rapper during that era to be afraid of him somehow, just way too many beefs imo, especially, and I know you remember this, how he would diss anyone just for doing a song with somebody he's beefing with etc

This is tough one

I feel like for 1 liners, Styles P. He got the coldest 1-2 bar set ups where it just is total disrespect and ignorance

But for drawn out imagery it's Prodigy. He'll have like a whole 8-10 bar stanza detailing how they gonna harm you, in a very detailed way lol.

I love both their style so I can't pick.

I understand exactly what you saying fresh, which is why I’m starting to lean toward Styles as the answer

The poetical aspect of his raps are very underrated, like the second verse on How We Live :wow:
