Jay Z can be as good as Nas, at times, which means it's a choice he makes. Nas can't be as commercial or entertaining while maintaining some semblance of himself. Jay is more diverse. All these things go into who the better rapper is, I guess. Nas doesn't annunciate as clearly, and this plays a role in who the better rapper is, I think. Nas is more consistently intense, but Jay can do it, but I don't feel he can do AS well as Nas. Jay is a better rapper, I'd say.
