Andre is rapping on half the album of Love Below btw

Niggas act like he just straight made a singing/pop album

He raps on damn near every track

And it's one of the greatest albums ever made. If I'm being a prude, I say you're not even a music fan if you don't hear the genius in that album

No the fuck he ain't.

Other than Hey Ya, the only songs I like is the ones w/ some rapping in it and that's Spread, Roses, and Happy Valentine's Day.

Day in the life, behold a lady

Again 5 outta 20 tracks there's rapping on

FOH nigga
 
Andre is a Goat lyricist BUT the absolute goat?

Reeeeeeeeeeaaaaacccchhhhh

He the greatest Co-star of a duo type of emcee...

His one "solo" ain't even a rap album..

Serious question: is 3k the greatest in the south?

Is he better than Big Boi, Scarface, T.I.,etc.?

-Scarface is better

-3000 is right behind Face

-Big Boi is a great MC but not a contender for GOAT southern MC

-TI dont even belong in this conversation

bu8w4ppttvac.gif


If a nigga with no solo albums is in the convo.

Because TI isnt that good

FOH!

As a brooklyn nigga I'm offended..T.I is dumb NICE with MULTIPLE classic albums,a original style,voice,good ear for beats,good singles etc...

Dre is nicer than tip in the lyrics department but he ain't got the overall complete package to be a absolute goat

Fuck it Lauryn Hill is in the discussion for the goat based on The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill plus her work with the Fugees.

In what discussion for goat what?

The greatest of all time if Andre 3000 is in the conversation then why not her?

she aint in that conversation.

But should Andre be in the discussion? Because if he is then she should be too.

nah, he aint in the conversation.

Then we're on the same page.

Is Andre 3000 the Greatest RAPPER of All Time.?

Not "Is Andre 3000 the Greatest Solo Hip Hop artist of all Time.?"

Even disregarding whether he has a solo album out or not we can also argue someone like Jay Electronica is the greatest rapper of all time too, no? Cos I've hardly heard anyone say Jay Elect wack.

Even if we do disregard him having a solo album or not I personally feel there's rappers better than him.

3k needs a personal body of music to claim GOAT by his fans. He's lyrically excellent in every ramifications but to be the best he needs a solo and not just impressive guest features...

I think we should take his features for what it is and judge him on everything he puts out because Even if he did...it won't be a full Hip Hop album because we all know Dre is very multi dimensional and experimental. Even Outkast albums were always mixed with Singing and many other Non-hip hop elements.

Which is why i wanted to focus on his Raps and Skills because we know he's capable of being the best and that's why he throws them occasional verses out to show niggas he can shit on everybody, he's just not really interested in proving it.

He just wants to do his own thing and make his Weird jammin ass experimenal music

Occasional verses dont mean you cant shit on everybody, classic bodies of work like Illmatic, Black Album, MATW, GKMC show that when you drop the album of the year thats how you shit on everybody thats irrefutable. If he is so experimental why are you argueing so hard for his GOAT status as a rapper if he aint rapping most of the time?

And actually he does rap Most of the time...i said he incorporates a lot of singing and other non hip hop elements into his music alot...not MOST of the time because if we went through his catalog and compared all the songs he rapped vs sung...it would be mostly Rapped period brah

Execpt on his solo...

When it mattered most, he choose hit pop songs over hiphop respect, now y'all want to cry over it...

Post of the thread, salute to @lefty_ for dropping jewels all through this bitch too.

Black Thought doesn't have any solo albums, but I'd consider him better than Andre 3000.

Then again, I prefer The Roots to Outkast.

So my point is Andre 3K isn't The Goat because Black Thought is better imo.

Thats just my opinion.

Name Black Thoughts top 5 verses. I'll challenge u

1. last verse on Universe @ War

2. Web

3. 75 Bars

4. 2nd and 3rd Verse in Boom (not because of the lyrics but because he sounds just like Big Daddy Kane and Kool G Rap. When this song came out I thought it was really Big Daddy Kane and Kool G Rap!!!)

And here's the number 5 verse, I'm not sure if its an actual song;

Harvard Freestyle


That shit took u a min huh? Lol

Word. Now listen to these

Any verse on Southernplayalistic

Any verse on ATLiens

Any verse on Aquemini

Any verse on Stankonia

Any random verse on somebody else's project

Nobody ever remembers Black Thoughts rhymes....fact. That's no disrespect to Black Thought, homie is a GREAT top 20 rapper so don't get it twisted.


I could have done the same thing and said, "any verse on Illadelph Halflife"


Find me a Black Thought verse as cold and exquisite as this....

"My mind warps and bends floats the wind count to ten

Meet the twin Andre Ben. welcome to the lion's den

Original skin many men comprehend

I extend myself so you go out and tell a friend

Sin all depends on what you believing in

Faith is what you make it that's the hardest shit since MC Ren

Alien can blend right on in wit' yo' kin

Look again 'cause I swear I spot one every now and then

It's happenin' again wish I could tell you when

Andre this is Andre y'all just gon' have to make amends"


Take stock in the soul, spit properly

That extended clip on my hip sits awkwardly

I'm diabolical, follicle triggers that I cock and squeeze

Sending shots to ancient Greece to pop Socrates

I bear arms like button-downs without the sleeves

Manic depressive and possessive like apostrophes

My psychiatrist waive the doctor fees

When I wave the pistol and say listen, quit watchin' me so I can breathe

National Association for the Advancement

Of drugs for performance enhancement

And it's tough taking so many chances

But I've been a bad seed from the womb, they call me ovary cancer

And I got an ugly heart, although I'm totally handsome

And I take the love of your life and hold her for ransom

And my tactical cam that never stood for any national anthems

Whats hood, I am the actual answer

And I'll prove it

Black attire, rapid fire, rapid eye movement

I'm from a species that is higher, I am not human

Extraterrestrial alien, a monster killer of conscience chillin'

In a barrel of lobster

Ex-Slave, sadomasochist, that gave the massa my ass to kiss

A dyin' breed, I'm the last of this

Black is as miraculous as Jesus of Nazareth

When I vocalize the crowd rise like Lazarus

It's the Rhode Scholar, my coat collar piss off PETA

Your hoes holla, he's on top of the bars

Meet a Mr. Globe Trotter in my Adidas

Pure cheetah, hoppin' out of this exotic European 4 seater

Hollerin' cheeba cheeba like I'm Parkside

Killin' is the dark side

Villain, I'm God, I'm Godzilla

Sometimes I'm Bob Dylan put blood on these tracks, for real

So, God-willin' you'll feel what I'm spillin'

Yeah, I never quit, I'm still syndicatin' up

Me and Pharoahe Monch, did it for the benefit of us

This is straight razor behavior, I never get enough

Get the picture, my militia gettin' ignorant as fuck


3k's Royal Flush verse is better...

... and Thought wasn't even the best rapper on that song...

3k's Royal Flush verse is better...

... and Thought wasn't even the best rapper on that song...


Dope verse, typical 3 Stacks flow and lyrics. Nothing made me go whew and hit the rewind button, he literally uses a nursery rhyme...

No argument from me, Thought isn't the best rapper on that song but were discussing rappers who are on the same skill level as 3 Stacks; not better, so let's leave his name out of it...
 
On page 2 and already saw some fuckery.. I will now continue to avoid this thread like I been doing the past week.. Ya'll can have this one..

Most will agree he needs a solo album before being considered...



Homies argument is interesting just for the fact that the current music climate is not built off of albums, so does 3 stacks really need something that the industry is trying to abandon and that most music fans don't give af about?...

He also adds that Big Boi actually has the better argument if we really break it down like that...

Q-Tip>3 Stacks imo...

Kendrick has arguably 2 classics at the very least 1, so is he in the convo?

You can put Kendrick in the conversation, but you'd have to compare him to people like LL Cool J, Nas, Jay, Pac, KRS, etc. who have a dozen albums.

You could try to argue that Biggie only has 2 albums and so does Kendrick, but Big was the undisputed KONY and had the radio on lock for 3 consecutive years. Can't say the same for Kendrick.

I find that HEEELARIOUS especially when most folks call Illmatic the GOAT album and they both came out in the same year :joy: but we not gonna do that in this thread.

Nope.

Illmatic got 5 mics and was the hottest HIP HOP albums, but Juicy, Big Poppa and the One More Chance (Remix) were platinum SINGLES. ALL THREE OF THEM WENT PLATINUM.

Furthermore, Big was on Players Anthem, The Flavor In Your Ear (Remix), Can't You See by Total. Also Get Money and the Get Money Remix.

Big was the ONLY rapper in New York that had his own mixtape. I remember seeing this tape at the local stores that sold Hip Hop. Retail stores like Sam Goody or Tower Records didn't have it, but those mom and pop stores had it.

R-3391985-1331404357.jpeg.jpg


Having said that, I think Illmatic was better than Ready to Die, but Big was the KONY. He was getting daytime radio play on the top 40 stations, can't say the same for Nas.

Nas is better than Big. BIG had a good producer (Puff) behind him. He already had a track record at Uptown Records of helping people blow up, so I really don't count all this radio stuff when you're comparing the overall body of work.

Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift and mumble rap get played a lot on the radio too.

This ninja just brought up Taylor Swift in a big n nas debate lol....big's radio singles were still lyrical n far from what mumble rappers putting out. One more chance rmx was far from some Justin Bieber shit lol

Okay, I havta address this post...

If we are discussing who the GOAT is then we can only talk about top tier rappers, so why not mention Monch if niggaz are in here claiming Thought is the GOAT?

There is nothing typical about a 3k verse... I wish I could say the same about Thought... in fact, his consistency is both his strength and his downfall...

And if you don't understand the significance of the Hokey Pokey line, I don't know what to tell you...

And I'll prove it

Black attire, rapid fire, rapid eye movement

I'm from a species that is higher, I am not human

Extraterrestrial alien, a monster killer of conscience chillin'

In a barrel of lobster

Ex-Slave, sadomasochist, that gave the massa my ass to kiss

A dyin' breed, I'm the last of this

Black is as miraculous as Jesus of Nazareth

When I vocalize the crowd rise like Lazarus

It's the Rhode Scholar, my coat collar piss off PETA

Your hoes holla, he's on top of the bars

Meet a Mr. Globe Trotter in my Adidas

Pure cheetah, hoppin' out of this exotic European 4 seater

Hollerin' cheeba cheeba like I'm Parkside

Killin' is the dark side

Villain, I'm God, I'm Godzilla

Sometimes I'm Bob Dylan put blood on these tracks, for real

So, God-willin' you'll feel what I'm spillin'

Yeah, I never quit, I'm still syndicatin' up

Me and Pharoahe Monch, did it for the benefit of us

This is straight razor behavior, I never get enough

Get the picture, my militia gettin' ignorant as fuck


3k's Royal Flush verse is better...

... and Thought wasn't even the best rapper on that song...


Dope verse, typical 3 Stacks flow and lyrics. Nothing made me go whew and hit the rewind button, he literally uses a nursery rhyme...

No argument from me, Thought isn't the best rapper on that song but were discussing rappers who are on the same skill level as 3 Stacks; not better, so let's leave his name out of it...


Okay, I havta address this post...

If we are discussing who the GOAT is then we can only talk about top tier rappers, so why not mention Monch if niggaz are in here claiming Andre 3000 is the GOAT?


Good question.
