[putting in work]

Yeah...

I'm going to have to agree fam...

AND

I ain't the biggest Jay supporter, but they both still putting out the best most listenable music for urban hip-hop.

Gotta give Jay his due, but I know a lot of the Eminem fans is about to go at your throat right now, as well as the Drake supporters.

I still think B.I.G. is the GOAT and the best to ever touch the mic, but it's unfair to other rappers because he only had the two albums.

I would give it to NaS though without question as far as GOAT status though based off of all his collection of work.

At the same time Nay... you have to remember what Jay-Z had said one time... "you're only as good as your last effort you put out"

So they both could drop dudes and people would start the bashing.

I think Eminem gave a good shot at trying to get away from that crazy sh.. that he did on Relapse, but I guess I'm just older now and not that into dude like that... never was a Stan though but though he was dope... he still is a very nice MC though no doubt.

What NaS did on Distant Relatives was uncalled for though... son went off on everything he spit on that album... Marley more than held his own too... and I'll say that's the first 5 mic album this decade because it's a classic from beginning to end with no skipping of songs.

Hope you prepared though Nay... they coming for your head right now

em is a close 3rd. recovery was amazing

 

[delete1234]

What the +$!+....dont get me wrong i like Jay verse on light up but WHAT did he say that was OMG best rapper alive worthy? his flow wasnt even dope on there...it what a cool verse basically cuz some of the @#%+ he was sayin was true...aint no way in 2010 jay z is a better rapper than eminem....

 

[optimusprimeaphia]

What Jay-Z does with words is what Nas uses them for.


What I mean to say, Jay-Z's wordplay is unparalleled by any mainstream artist outside of maybe Lupe. Nas just spits raw knowledge.


That being said, Jay-Z will always be ahead of Nas for me. Just will.

I'm guessin you're one of those people that thought Artest was gonna be Finals MVP huh??

Jay's verse on Light Up > Weezy's verse on Light Up > Weezy's verse on Miss Me > Weezy's verse on "My Generation" > Weezy's verse on Recovery > Doe Or Die 2 > Recovery

[sparklecity sc]

So is this thread telling me there's no need for me to even listen to Recovery? Never was really into Em's latest albums anyway..But Nas put himself back in my top 5 favorite rappers after I listened to DR..and after listening to TML,Distant Relatives is still the best album to come out in 2010 IMO

 

[harlem on the rise]

Eminem hasn't been worth listenin to since my Jr year in high school...

No one can tell you whats worth listening. Everyone has their own opinions. (Even though some peoples opinions are quite laughable)

Damian really made DR imo. Nas was still 

 on it, though.
TML was

SOme boring songs on there, though.

TES > Recovery > Mocking Bird > Like Toy Soldiers > Beautiful > Stay Wide Awake > De Ja Vu > Where Wili You Go?
Whoa, whoa, whoa 

I thought this said the best 2 rap artist.

This idiot Harlem really didnt put Em as the best 2 rappers? 

I actually thought Harlem always knew what he was talking about, guess I was wrong 

Dude hates to see a white man win.

 

[Jordan8]

I gotta get around to checkin Distant Relatives 
But I was watching this video where he explains to L.A. Reid how he !#@%% with dudes with his words. It wasnt a deep line but just a lil glance in how Jay thinks while writing his rhymes

 

[dead stokc]

Although these 2 have been my fave rappers since 96/97, Im starting
to really believe there are RAPPERS out there on their level that do not
get praise because they aren't mainstream.

Every rapper gets applauded for different attributes, but these 2 stood
the test of time. Through the Golden Era of Hip Hop, to the decline, and
still manage to put out decent to excellent works.

Distant Relatives is going to be a hard album to top as far as content and lyrics go this year.

You're probably older than me, but this is how I feel. It's on some Cassidy battle rap tip. It doesn't excite me any more.
