When and why exactly did Andre 3000 end up anywhere close to the greats ?!?

[will grimey]

He reminds me off Pac, he says deep shit in a simple way the masses can relate to but in a poetic way...

Babylon

I came into this world high as a bird
From second hand cocaine powder
i know it sounds absurd
I never tooted but its in my veins
While the rest of the country bungies off bridges
Without no snap back
and bitches they say they need that
To shake they fannies in the ass clubs
they go the other route
turn each other out
burn each other out
where a bonified nigga like me
can't even get no back rub these days
ain't that bleak on they part
but let me hold it down
cause they shut you down
when you speak from your heart
now that's hard
while we rantin and ravin bout gats
nigga they made them gats
they got some shit that'll blow out our backs
from where they stay at

That's actually a pretty respectable list. I don't agree with half of it, obviously. But it's respectable. We can agree to disagree. Also, props for having G Rap on your shit. A lot of niggas forget about him.

gotta respect G Rap. he was spitting the multi shit back in the late 80s.

Dre's more wittier. a better lyricist than DMX. But so are a few niggas on the IC...so ehh..

DMX's catalogue >>>>>>>>>>>> Andre 3000's life.

Comparing 98-2001 DMX to 95-99 Andre 3000 is like comparing a rabid Wolf to a Golden Retriever...

WRONG!!! only X's first two albums are classics...them other ones had a few tracks but nothin special....Dre kills all those shit PLUS he's still in HIGH Demand right now

 

[boss jay]

He has nothing on his own that can compare to the heavyweights of hip hop...

Yall are taking a Paul Pierce-Ray Allen-Kevin Garnett ass nigga and trying to put him in the same ring as Kobe Bryant...

So What...neither does alot duos...but they are greats...Yall get hypocitical at times lol...

The question was Why exactly did 3Gs end up close to the greats? and I answered logically...So you saying Paul Pierce Ray Allen KG aint going in the same Hall Of Fame as Kobe?...Much as I hate the Celtics I wont be silly enough to say something like this...come on man lets stay on topic (thread ?)...

I think dude is overrated and that Big Boi is equal if not better than 3 stacks, but with that said dude is a great mc. He just became one of the greats when he decided to go on a feature tear that one year.

Nigga is this a troll post?! I'm beginning to believe it is.....

The Big 3 are great. Got a ring together. Probably going to hall. No one will put them in the top 5.
Kobe is a legend. Got 5 rings. Will go to the hall. Top 10 or 5 depending on who you asked.

It's a difference.

The fact that the nigga doesn't have any solo rap albums seems to be what a lot of niggas are hinting at. And while I don't agree that you need that to be considered one of the GOAT rappers, I see where you coming from. But I made the clear distinction that he was one of the coldest MC'S ever. That means that bar for bar, verse for verse, he's right up there with any of the top niggas you can name. Just my 2 cents.

 

[runningwolf1980]

Outkas wit a K, yeah them niggaz are hard

Harder than a nigga trying to impress God

We'll pull your're whole deck, fuck pulling your card

And still take my guitar and take a walk in the park

Any play the sweetest melody the street ever heard

Now bitches sucking on my nouns and I'm eating their verbs

Get full, and niggaz, niggaz,

pop, pop, lock, lock to the, to the beat, beat

As if pitbulls went out of style, made a vow to myself

If it's for the wealth i'll stop, well put i like this

It's like me selling some dope because my girlfriend wants to shop

Wrong reason, whatever the season, hey winter, spring, summer or fall

I dont stall, slow drag wit your brain against the wall

Yeah, nigga naw, we learn to the side don't fall

All y'all fuck boys, tuck toys inside your pants

Just to pull it out, point it at the ground and make a nigga wanna dance

Now what that be for, you're on that reefer and on that Tupac

In front of them oooh wops, trying to show out, that's the hoe route

Talking loud talking bout that's gangsta shit

you. are. comparing. a. koala bear. to. a. fucking. lion. stop!!!

Aint nobody denying X skills homie,why you gettin defensive? U actin like dude on some regular shit

 

[Rey Negro]

I could be an ass and post a shitload of videos but, i won't. yall can't possibly believe that nigga belongs anywhere near the hall of fame of hip hop. how you become a top 10 rapper off verses? LOL. not your album. not classic solo songs. not ushering in and dominating an era. just because you spit 10 hot verses one year.

 

shenco sounding weak screaming big boi was nicer when big boi admitted to 3k writing his shit ....

I'm with you but think how many verses BIG got out there & all the people that have more than him. Rating is flawed you get nothing for longevity or creativity if you don't fit in the box.
