No. He just doesn't rap often, but when he does, it's just as good as it ever was.
Da best

Yes he has a couple gimmick tracks on albums, albums which still have some good lyrical content..but 3k fell off long ago.

There's always some understanding to be had with this type of conversation. Are we taking album sales and current relevancy into consideration? Because I look purely at content.
3 stacks, the best.

You probably can't relate to what Em is saying then. I think both of them were nasty on that track, but Em just sounded better.

Jay had a lyrically sound and poignant verse on Renegades, but his delivery on the track is what derailed it. There's a way of writing and delivering lines in a certain order and manner that makes the listener pay attention. It's the equivalent of having a good film with poor editing. Great story, decent acting, but the editing makes it hard to follow. Em on the other hand had an amazing flow, was more entertaining lyrically and stood out more. Jay killed himself on Renegades.
This question is bullshit to ask anymore. Rap's too old to have a universal best. You can run off a top ten of people who have held the spot at one time or another. Em, Jay, Mos Def, 3000, Pun, Pac, Biggie, Meth for a minute maybe. |

What the fuck does 'run rap' mean? Influence? I wasn't talking influence. That's based on popularity, even if it is in the community. Ask anyone named in this thread whether or not Mos Def is one of the best and they'd agree.
You'll let me have him? lol Thanks for your approval. I needed it. |
