Who wins this beef: Nas (prime) or Ice Cube (prime)?

[Big Mel]

Ice Cube and it isn't at all close.

Pretty much

 

[Ziggiy]

96 Era Nas could've Handled Cube. Remember Common, another top tier lyricist handled Cube now just imagine an angry prime era Nasir going in

 

[the cac mamba]

nas is the GOAT but...idk

ether nas vs no vaseline cube? idk if i can call it

 

[pointproven214]

These people cant be trusted to make votes on anything hiphop related,because they obviously domt underatand music,or see hiphop as a music genre....people who think technical lyricism is the end all be all,and whoever is the best at that automatically wins every discussion?you gotta take they opinion with a grain of salt.

even on that end i think cube can out rhyme nas to me and he has better punchlines better flow better metaphors only nas has better wordplay but still cube is better lyrically imo

 

[Guru]

nas has never made song as good as this IMO


straight anger from start to finish

 

[Illeye buckmatic]

NaS...but cube is still one of the goats. Can't even be mad at those picking cube

 

[Da King]

Naw. N!ggas that think Eminem automatically is better than the next MC usually judge by that "technical" bullsh!t. Nas just a better MC than the rest. Cube had a fvcking hell of a start (88-93) but most of his solo stuff since then has been meh or wack. Nas still torching the mic. These is facts.

too bad we talking about PRIME in this thread, which Nas not touching

 

[Inspect Her Deck]

Over the course over an entire career, picking Nas would be highly questionable

but we're talking about primes here, and Cube has literally the best prime ever, so picking Nas in this scenario is borderline lunacy

Ice Cube 8 days a week 400 days a year

Cube never had a chance to respond

 

[-Quikness-]

IMO .. Nobody was fukking with Cube when he was in his prime

 

[FreshAIG]

Cube's peak was only 4 years and it was so amazing that you can argue he's the GOAT. That's nuts.

 

[DontEemTry]

Lol @ Nas ever losin a poll on The Coli.

You could have a poll tawmbout "who's nut you think taste better, Nas or Rakim" and these stans would make sure Nas wins by a landslide.

But to answer your question, prime Cube was an enigma. That nikka's first few albums were events.

 

[MrFettuccinnePockets]

Cube wins.

 

[mson]

Let's Discuss...

Why did you pick those two?
