An answer I've been trying to find for decades. However, on wax, KRS was much better.

KRS 1 and IT IS NOT CLOSE...

Big Daddy Kane should be compared to Vanilla Ice, not Krs One...

Krs got TIMELESS bangers, and he had various styles and that is why he was able to make it through the 90s...

Best rappers from the late 80s (1) Mc Hammer (2) LL Cool J (3) Krs One

KRS for his discography. Kane is still one of my favorite emcees but KRS may very well be my #1 pick. Definitely has a cemented position in my top 5.

Krs' music taught the masses in a way Kane could never reach.

Recently Gza spent half this interview quoting Krs. He didn't quote Kane



Chuck D taught the masses in a way Kane could never reach too. It doesn't make Chuck better than Kane.

Just because the GZA didn't quote Kane doesn't make KRS better.

I'm just saying, your examples of why KRS is better are suspect. I'm not saying either is better, I'm just point out your criteria. :manny:

Two things wrong with this statement.

1. OP said KRS and Kane. You brought up Chuck D out of thin air.

2. Me posting the Gza quoting a krs song that is 26 years old shows how Gza was humble enough to promote KRS for half the interview because thats really what he was doing. Also, gza used a krs song to enlighten. Why? Because thats what Krs' music did. Kane just doesn't have songs of such caliber. Kane never once made an album on the level of Edutainment.

1. I used Chuck to debunk your theory about being better because of who taught more/better.

2. GZA quote who was more influential to HIM, and that doesn't mean that KRS was better.

Don't be defensive breh.

Depends on your definition of "better".

KRS's overall discography is fukking mean.

However, you can still see Prime Kane's style influence on rappers today whether they know it or not.


Yeah kane birthed a lot of emcees and I liked his 80s stuff more than krs's.

But krs was a beast in the 90s from the return of the boom bap onwards. In 2000 I thought krs was the best ever due to his longevity at that point.

:what::stopitslime:


1. Dude , read the thread title.

Op says 'who's better to u'? Then he gives options. None of the options was chuck D.

Bringing up chuck D goes off topic. There is no 'theory' cuz chuck D is not an option

2. And we r not mind readers we dont know who influenced gza more, u made that up.
