Greatest rapper at wut? Making deep introspective thought provoking music? Sure, i'll give him dat, Nas is a dope mc, top 5 type dude.

His weakness is dat he's too one dimensional, can't make songs for da clubs nd bishes.... oops my bad, dats not hiphop is it, smh.

With that sed Hov is da best rapper, no chinx in his armor.... might not be da most deep, might not be da most raw lyrically, da most witty, most multis, substance, metaphoricallynd etc.

Guess wut tho? He's top 5 in most categories all cross da board, cud craft songs wit substance, songs for da bishes, clubs, or juss go off on a tangent lyrically nd give u hard bars bout nuffin...

But if da moon nd da stars nd da motherland is ur thing, well by all means Nas has dat lane wrapped up.

c'mon now, don't try to box that nigga in to one catagory. he has referenced the 5 percent belief a few times, but thats a bit of a reach. what hasn't nas talked about?

cosign Common. Now Common and Nas just need to get in the studio together (again)

Im not boxin him in, he does try to touch on all subjects, but when he tries to do da club, bish, commercial type shit, well........ he sux. *shruggs*

U seem like an intelligible dude, so dont act as if ur alarmed, u know dat type a shit aint his strong suit, so how is he da best wit such glaring weaknesses, dont get me wrong i fuck wit Nas, he's in my top 5 dependin on how im feelin, but cmon, da best.... Lies!

yeah, he sucks at club songs(though i think if the joint with aaliyah was released as a single it woulda did aiight). but you were acting like nas is killah priest or gza, only talking about sun moon and stars when thats not the case. and most of the songs where he talks about it's just a reference, and the whole songs isn't about it.

Most real, good rappers know and say Nas is the GOAT. If you say otherwise it shows your lack of Hip Hop knowledge.

Are you a bitch? What kind of comment is that? "Nah, he ain't the best because he can't make songs for bitches." ... Stop it 5!

Cosign, they should record a whole album.

LMAO!! This shit doesn't even make sense. Jayz doesn't have any dents in his armor but then you go on to list at least 4 plus flaws. Makes no sense. So, even if by your Numbers... Nas has two set backs. No songs for the Clubs or Women. While Jayz has 7 flaws as an MC.

And as another poster stated what's this no songs for the clubs or women? First why does that matter to you? Second are you sure Nas, hasn't made songs for Women? What about the song for his Mother? The song for his daughter? Black girl lost? Getting Married? Etc etc.
