U do know Jada had Puffy

If puff made him put on a shiny suit I’m sure he did the same as u say guru did for beanie
Jada's debut album wasn't on Bad Boy...

I wouldn't be making this argument if Jada had a solo album exec produced by Diddy.

Cmon Piff Jada had Puffy at the most Important stage of his career. By the the time Kiss solo was debuting he was a seasoned vet.

beanie was still new to rap when he debuted and easily had a better debut

idk how kiss skirted by all these years the way he do. He was supposed to be competing with Jay not Jay lil mans

He's still a c-tier rap artist who isn't a songwriter. Those dudes need help in the studio. What did Beans do once Just/Kanye/Guru/Jay weren't in the picture lol. I rest my case.

I'm not some big Jada fan and find it weird that people are trying to sneak him into top 10 lists based off Versuz. You know the question I always ask breh: how many points were you putting on the board when the game was being played. For Jada, that was the 90s through 2004. Used (or wasted?) all his best verses on group projects and mixtapes in the 90s. 2001 dropped a weak album (which admittedly also had a few great tracks), to the point that you could easily say the disappointment of it was the second biggest rap story of the year after Jay v Nas. 2004 came back with another bloated album full of super producers and features. I swear to god there's a College Dropout throwaway beat on there from Kanye lol.

If we really wanna get into the shyts...Nore got better albums than Jada. And he's probably the king of c-list rappers who aren't songwriters. But Nore understood his lane, his strengths/weaknesses and got Pharrell to fill in the blanks. All I'm saying is if you put Jada on Rocafella and put Beans on Ruff Ryders at the same time, Jada would have had better albums.

What are all these amazing Beanie Sigel albums? I give you The B. Coming but the ones that came before and after it are just as uneven as Jadakiss albums. Swear just the other day I was going through The Reason and thinking how mid it is and I say this as someone who listens to "I Don't Do Much" almost daily.

Beans. Easily.

While Jada MIGHT be better at witty/clever bars and hot 16s, Beans isn’t far behind—- and he can *do* what Jada does. However, Jada cannot *do* what Beans does. At ALL.

Jada can’t make a Can’t Go On this Way, Feel it in the Air, Die, Daddy where you been…bruh Beans went neck n neck on ther deepest songs of Jay z and Scarface’s career.

For the people who pick Jada, if that’s the case Jada would be better than a ton of artists with superior catalogues, more depth, etc. If Jada is better than Beans, is Jada also better than Scarface? Better than Ghostface? Bc Jada can “rap” better ….but he damn sure ain’t the better rapper
Jada made Smoking Gun, Still Feel Me, Things I've been through.

I'll give the edge to Beans for better albums.

When it comes just spitting, Kiss will always be held a higher but even in that arena it's not a complete wash.

The B. Coming might be my least favorite of his first 3 albums.
