[Master Zik]

Rap ability:
Cam
Fab/Luda



Nelly

Success:
Nelly




Luda



Cam
Fab


Rap ability is harder to judge between the 3. Luda got skills. Fab forever dope. But Cam the only one switched up his flow and still remained consistent with the rhymes. Not as much versatility as Luda but he kinda do things Luda and Fab do better in his own way. Pretty much neither got a Come Home with Me or Purple Haze.

Success is obvious. Nelly with hit after hit during his run and just plain great songs. None of the other 3 really matching that but Luda did his thing with his style.

 

[nawghtyhare]

Luda first 3 albums are
Though
I still
At how chingy washed everyone
On “we got”

 

[sooperhooper]

Rapping ability I'll say
Luda
Fab
Cam
Nelly

Success:
Nelly
Luda (took me a minute to figure who was on top)
Fab
Cam

Influence/rap swag, I'll throw in my fav verse too
Cam (rap city freestyle was legendary)
Fab (he had an epic rap city joint too)
Nelly (his verse on grillz and get loose was too cold)
Luda (son came in too cold on phat rabbit )

 

[nawghtyhare]

And Luda skits
“Oh deep voice”

What up

“Ooooh why u talkin like that”

Man **** all that y’all comin through

“We might I seen u blingin last night”

Yeaah 30 karats paid fo

“***** u wearing my mf’n chain again”

Aaaah that’s my body guard
Now hang up the phone


that whole skit used to have me dyin

 

[Master Zik]

I was gonna say Luda was like a Southern Busta Rhymes with a dash of ODB as far as comparisons can go.

Thinking more about success how many Fab albums even went plat? I know Cam's did. Even Killa Season went plat according to the Canadian Wall St Journal.

People sayin Wayne never had a good year probably also think Nash never deserved an MVP. Just stop, Wayne, Drake and Nicki = Dre, Snoop, and Pac.

"SELF-DESTRUCTION...YA HEADED FOR SELF-DESTRUCTION!!"

 

[SC kid]

Kobe should have been MVP in 06

 

[Hahahaha]

Yeah that’s definitely the worst post of the thread

Why do you think those two groups of people would share similar thoughts?

[jaypesoz]

I became an instant fan of Luda after seeing this back in the day.

 

[Thierry Henry]

that 'let me hold you' slander

maaaaannn

I was in love with that light skin shawty as a youngin, never found out who she was

 

[a blinkin]

Wayne first dropped with Block is Hot, right? That was ‘99. People weren’t even remotely entertaining the idea that he was “the best rapper alive” until around 05 or 06. His last decent project was No Ceilings in 09. Son has been garbage since then save for a few tracks here and there that people champion as a sign of “old Wayne” coming back as if that negates the bs he’s dropped for the past 9 years.

You can’t spend half of your rap career being washed and coast on the accolades of your former selfwho had, at the very best, a 3 year run of being nice. That’s not legend status to me. Y’all just liked that ***** back in the day a whole lot.

 

[chucktwnsfinest]

Wayne has a bigger body of work than most In the GOAT conversation. Some people need more shots to score more, Scoring Champion = scored the most points, not highest shooting percentage

 

[a blinkin]

Quality > Quantity

[noshoegame]

I have not listened to a Luda album since his Word of Mouf, but Beast Mode is one of my favorite tracks of the 2000's.

Such an underrated lyricist.

"Since I was born to touch the mic
The first time it's been a problem
Your life was a mistake
Your pops should've wore a condom"

 

[RIP sleazyy]

Legend status isn't just about quality, notoriety is a factor too. That's why I put Wayne up there.

Luda first three intros

 

[jthagreat]

excuse me for being late, but did Fab really whoop on his bm?
thought I seen a tweet of his saying "woke up thinkin I was chris brown" or something like that.
