Why doesn't nobody never put Mase in their top 20 when making rappers list

[Escobar305]

This performance highlighted his status as one of the goats EASY

 

[CoCKy GeNiuS]

Nah.

T-Mac was one of the best during his era and D Rose was an MVP. Mase ain't never been the best anything in Hip Hop, during the 18-months he was active. Like someone said, he was basically Puff's sidekick who was thrown on popular records. That's not gonna get you thrown on any Top 20 lists. Bro did no work.

Mase debut album sold 6 million 1997 was his year

The performance in the OP is better than what these current niggs are giving. He still fresh, slick and smooth wit it. Not looking stuff and washed.

That did not sell 6 million and Mase was the third biggest bad boy artist of 1997

 

[315]

Wasn't a fan when he was poppin. nikka always sleepy to me

 

[Pop123]

1 good album
1 decent album

. And I was/am a huge Mase fan…but yeah, nah, he don’t have the resume

 

[Harry B]

Cause one realizes that there’s a lot of great rappers when you start doing top 50-100 lists.

Like when you see a Gza, Big L, or Bun B at like #49 one can understand why.

Then when you start including new rappers it becomes a headache

MC Hammer's Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em sold over 10,000,000 '90-'91.

Ain't nobody throwing Hammer on no damn Top-nothing rapper lists. Sales ain't getting you on no lists. Ask Nelly.

Mase could actually spit and talk it through. Effortlessly at a very high level.

He can rap. I liked a lot of his verses back in the day.

But saying he's in the Top 20 MC's of all-time? Nah, it's not even close.

We got 50 years of rappers dropping phenomenal classics and bars. The dude with the 18-month run ain't scratching the surface. There's way too many dudes and chicks who put in that work and left a strong legacy behind.

 

[maxamusa]

Cause he had one dope album flooded with features


if he making anyones top 20 I'm not even considering your list.

 

[FreshAIG]

Refer to Biggie's opening line on Kick in the Door

 

[DarkmanX]

Short run. Then X, Jay, Pun & nem took over.

Plus the glossy shyt may have gotten over commerically but obviously not the heads.

 

[Deadman187]

24 hours to live
Take what's yours
The player way
Wanna hurt Mase
nikkaz wanna act

The only songs I revisit on Harlem World, and that's considered his lone good album

 

[Striving For Greatness]

He’s in my top 5
