You are getting off tangent with the Game comparison, i don't see what he has to do with the argument. Jay had a relationship with Biggie for one thing, half the nigga that Game raps about can't stand his ass for the sake of entertaining that argument. I have no problem with Lil Wayne,TI,Jay,Nas,etc doing what they do, like i said if you don't know those niggas shit and who the original artist, that's a reflection of a lack of your hiphop knowledge. Here we go with the stupidity again about Jays shine, why is it you niggas only use that excuse for Jays success, how come yall never use it for (50,Dmx,Big Pun,Camron,Mase,and the numerous niggas who have blown up in rap)? Yes Reasonable Doubt is a better fucking album than RTD, Can I live is better than any song on that album period so is Dead Pres. LAD > Vol 1, i'll give you that. SMH at Jay didn't have a classic till Blueprint, stupid shit like that is why i can't have a honest debate because there obviously isn't a drop of objectivity.
Longevity > 3 year run, look at all the niggas who have come and gone will Nas and Jay are still here (dmx, mase, black rob, pun,eve,foxy,lil kim,etc)
