Bad Boy Records vs. Roc-A-Fella Records -- which label was better overall?

[The Connoisseurs]

Jay Z and Kanye West > Bad Boy


How is this even close

Because Bad Boy had

Biggie
Ma$e
Lox
Shyne
G-dep
Black Rob
Craig Mack
112
Faith Evans
Dirty Money
Etc

Frequent collabs with Mary J blige and Mariah Carey and Usher, revolutionized the remix game bridged that Rap & B marriage.etc..

Bad Boy put more stains on the culture as a whole.

I take that back after looking at this roster


Kanye West by himself > Bad Boy

Some folks just don’t understand we’re talking LABELS

Roc started in 94 Ye ain’t pop off until 04 and his last album there was 2013

Bad Boy was founded in 93,

I wasn’t of age but functions in 90’s and early 2000’s Weren't playing rocafella records. Back then you were able to get a 2 hour mix of Bad Boy records.

 

[I Really Mean It]

Rocafella made more music i liked. Surprised by the poll results. Jayz, Camron, Dipset, Beanie Sigel, Kanye. that’s a roster any label would covet.

besides big, whose bad boy-published music am i still banging?

lox? (i fukk with what the lox became AFTER they left bad boy. should i thank bad boy for giving them the exposure that let them center out the career they have?)

mase? craig mack? black rob? g dep? loon? i mean, they’re cool, some of them with bangers that still get burn at the occasional wedding reception. but….

the r&b doesn’t count, imo. this should be based off rap.

 

[Big Boss]

Bad Boy

 

[Controversy]

Freeway on the Burnin Up Remix

Beans on the Dance Wit Me Remix

Jigga on Young G's

Bad Boy & Roc made some classic tracks together

Don't forget we don't get the American Gangster album without Puff lacing Jigga...and to think those beats were meant for BIG

 

[RickyDiBiase]

Minus Big, Bad Boy was for the chicks

Roc was for brehs and brehs about getting that paper

 

[010101]

bad boy had way more actual musicians & vocalist

the roc had the bars & more in tune with the streets

but just off the music bad boy(even crazier if you tie in puff uptXwn records work)

Hov with the misogyny flow was getting heavy play in the club.

Bad Boy no question

 

[I Really Mean It]

which label output more timeless music?

rocafella.

jay z
freeway
memphis bleek (his debut, at least)
beanie sigel
camron
dipset

all of this still bangs and aged far better than anything on bad boy that isn’t the work of biggie or gdep’s child of the ghetto.
