I don't want to hurt any of yall old heads but its truth almost all them niggas couldn't hang in today's rap or have even made as much quality music as a Jay or Kanye.. But its like hip hop fans never wanna give just due to our rappers which is just unfair...
Half them old niggas (or Dead niggas) are still tryna rap and aint been looked out for about 15 years... but people have the nerve to say Jay-Z or Em has to do more to pass them niggas when if you compare lyric wise and what not are killing off them old heads... I'm sure yall understand where I'm getting at... Its cool if you a legend and u were here first but that shyt don't mean players who have shown and proved consistently haven't passed up them niggas... The old and the dead are getting way too much credit now and it needs to end!

It's the internet though; if a bunch of bloggers call you a clown for this thread its all good in most eyes. I disagree on you being a clown and think your opinion is a valid one to those people that can call it like it is and move on. I'm out, you speak the truth on some levels.
BenSkrilla;3369844 said:i see where TS is comin from, some are really overrated today because they werent technical rappers. they were just the first ones really doing it so it was a lot more impressive
but i love Kool G Rap, Rakim. I always felt like LL was really simple even tho i enjoy a lot of his songs. I would never call LL the GOAT like some ppl do
NothingButTheTruth;3371186 said:Cosign some of what you're saying, but you took it too far naming TI, Kanye, Em, and Wayne. Those 4 rappers are nowhere near the GOAT list. They don't have the catalog, the skills, and the longevity. Also, BDK, Rakim, and Kool Mo Dee are incredibly dope. Especially BDK.
... I do agree on some level that a lot of these older (and dead) rappers get put on a pedestal. I agree Big Pun is hella wack, Biggie is overrated, KRS-One is average, DMC is average etc.
Cosizzle. People on here acting like KRS-One is on the same level as a Nas. SMH.
I would give LL the GOAT title before Rakim and well before I even think of Kool G Rap.
