Yup. I'm starting to think OP makes outlandish threads like this one just to get attention and piss people off. lol.

I've been here on NT for a while buddy, I don't post things for attention.

I remember that thread, talking bout John Legend's Once Again was the best R&B album of all time or something like. Thread was something like this too.

I said ONE OF THE BEST, and that thread was legit. It's not like I said room 112 of some lloyd album. I would expect someone of your age to be able toappreciate an album like once again since you're damn near 30 but I guess not.

Why even comment if you don't even read what I said.

Does it matter? He mentioned RD, who is clearly better than both Mos and Jay in their prime.

And even though he doesn't have a discography like Jay...Jay is a better rapper than Mos Def...better flow, delivery, word play.

Are you joking ? or are hip hop fans really this stupid ?

So we're stupid now for thinking Jay > Mos Def? Who put you as the hip hop judge?

 

[ccookielover49]

these dudes are on two totally different planets when it comes to rap. mos def style, swag, whatever is waayy different then jay-z's.

On point. He's one of my favorite MC's but his inconsistency kills me.

You're still helmet material.

 

[visualmusic]

I'm not sure what my take on this subject [though I def prefer Jay'smusic over his]....I can honestly say that Mos Def's verse on 'Thieves of the Night' is probably the greatest Hip Hop verse I've ever heard.Meaning that Jay hasn't spit anything superior to that IMO. Mos is def one of our greatest lyricist, by far.

 

[pr1nts]

nahhh i'm a big mos def fan but jay > mos def.

The answer is DUH.

 

[All Ready]

Mos Def is that dude

Dude is a true freestyler and rapper, I refuse to compare these 2 tho, just won't

Can someone post and embed that The New Danger freestyle Mos did on Def Poetry? I'm on my ps3 and can't copy and paste

 

[eightysbaby]

@ This thread...

But im actually kind of upset OP said that

*Reported*

 

[sstutter]

I'm a big Jay fan and Jay will always be GOAT to me, but Mathematics is damn close to Jay's best songs.

 

[sidewayze]

your joking..

right?

 

[retr0sxual]

I agree completely.

NT is harsh...

Thieves in the Night > _

Why do feel Mos is better than Jay?

Is it his Flow? Song Structure? Subject matter? Delivery? Voice? Realness? Street Cred? Lyrical Imagery? Lyrical Prowess? Punch Lines? Accessibility? Charisma?"Swag"?

I should have been more detailed in my original post. From what you put, I highlighted why I think he is the better MC.

 

[mr fizzy womack]

C'mon now, I'm not asking for a essay... but gimme more than that (pause).

Post a few vids/bars or something.

Meh... I like Mos, but not more than Jay. To each his own tho.

BTW, Jay > Mos in Flow, Lyrical Prowess/ability and Delivery imo.

Everything else I can pretty much agree with.

 

[Lizakers]

Mos Def's rhymes on Thieves in the Night >>>>> Jay's best song

[run dlc]

Jay's impact alone puts him over Mos
