Big Boi is a Better Rapper than Jay Z. Agree or disagree?

[Westbama Heartthrob]

The Jay-Z hate on this board is out of control

What's that got to do with this thread? There's no hate here. Not towards jay at least

The south and southern hip hop gets hate on this board everyday but yall don't say shyt

We need to have a discussion of east coast elitism in rap. Yall nikkas act just like white folks. We cool to yall and yall will give us lil props here and there.

But when we start telling you we're better than some of yall's rappers, it's a problem. But it's cool when yall always put your rappers on a pedestal. Well, some of em don't deserve to be there as much as you think

Jay z can't outrap big boi. 3 pages in and nobody can prove me otherwise?

Jay z top 5 but nobody can tell me why? Nobody know what makes him better than big boi?

Thread has definitely been interesting

 

[Street Knowledge]

To those who think this is random, I've always those they were really similar when you think about it

Both had that double time stutter flow. Only Jay z dropped it once he doubled his dollars

Similar subject matter as well. Being fly, selling dope, pimpin, but being introspective and sentimental from time to time

A lot of yall east coast mfs showed yall ass in the boosie thread. You took shots at the south and said boosie is just a C list failure of a rapper. Well, here's a new challenger you can't discredit

It's way past time we give this man his due. With almost 30 years in the game, big boi has more than proved himself to be a top 5 rapper

He's a multiplatinum artist that was in the goat rap group where in which he was rapping, singing, producing, and writing hooks

He has a solo album. Multiple, so that excuse wont work this time

And as bonus, he's also a much better actor

But what yall think?

Let us continue our weekly jay z discussion

Saying boosie is who has no gold or plat album certs is a c list rapper is a shot?

You guys are gonna turn The Coli into the hip hop version of ResetEra

Yall see how quickly nikkas turn to using cac tactics

Once you start putting em on the ropes and challenge em too much, they wanna change the rules

Back when it was boosie vs jay, they got their lil jokes off and it was cool

They've got no ammunition to diss big boi, so now they wanna ban nikka's threads and police what we can and can't say

 

[Billy Ocean]

Big Boi is criminally underrated, but he is not a better rapper than Jay Z.

 

[Mʀ2ᴋDᴇᴇᴢ]

There's a Jay Z thread but he ain't been active for a minute

Need to get them type of threads popping because the individual multiple threads on rappers just leads to stan wars and shyt. Damn shame when Big and Pac been dead 30 years a thread get made you know arguments pop off. Nas and Jay away moved on from their beef and still having great careers while making money, but all we see is cats dwelling on old shyt that has no relevance in 2023. I won’t front like I haven’t engaged myself at times, but damn lol.

So let's be real. Problem isn't people aren't talking. Complaining is just really all most posters have to say

 

[Born2BKing]

Never knew Big Boi had fans or was thought of as a good rapper before being on this board. Have relatives and buddies from metro ATL too. They out me up on area groups and songs during Kast's early run. And never heard one of them say that Big Boi was good.

nikka you may wanna go to a rock or country western board. The fukk?

Truth. Dudes would rather add to their post count to complain about another Jay or Nas thread than contribute other topics

Of course

Let us call Kool g rap or roc Marciano c list rappers

Yall would be hurt

Plus you had nikkas saying shyt like this

why is the south so obsessed wit east coast acts

Slack-jawed yokels.

It’s interesting that a majority of the black population and about 40% of the US population has Boosie ahead of Jay. That should technically mean that he should be on more goat lists than Jay

That also means that he should be the one selling out arenas over the south and Jay should be the one not selling out clubs


The people who say “bla bla bla the south” like it’s Sudan, North Korea or something stay lying to themselves. Like we ain’t got data, facts and numbers, like we can’t google “top 5 rappers” from various southern rappers.

They always be like “I’m from the south and we have MJG and Gucci ahead of Jay” always lone wolves tryna speak for 180 million people

People who have never been outside of tiny ass Baton Rouge be saying, “nobody in the south has ever chosen basketball over football, pizza over burger” not even people in specific projects of specific boroughs I NY speak like that

40+ nikkas don't listen to Boosie like that unless they work at Amazon fulfillment centers

It's been that way since the late 80's, according to Scarface.

Boils down to an inferiority complex.

What exactly do people in the south accomplish by saying things like this?

“Boosie and bigger than Jay z in the south”

Jay is more accomplished, more successful and is arguably in most people top rappers list. Also Jay z probably doesn’t lose sleep over this no matter how many times people in the south mention this.

The south is not important. There’s an entire world outside the south where Boosie standing next to Jay z would be a privilege for Boosie lmao

Yea Jay z is light years more succesful than Boosie. Why are you people down there so open to being losers?

Boosie is irrelevant around the globe once he leaves southern territory. Jay Z well recognized eberywhere when he leaves NY.

It is an inferiority complex. That region seems more obsessed with these stupid debates than making an artist that is respected globally lol.

Boosie is a B list rapper lmao

Debates likes this always reinforce the stereotype that southern cats might be naturally dumb.

Imagine trying to make a debate about B lost rapper Boosie vs Jay Z lmao.

I would have been more interested in the convo if it were Boosie vs Tony Yayo lol

They feel guilty for occupying spots meants for actual emcees, and they know it..this is just that lashing out

I’m not really surprised that a lot of southern rap fans are not into the JayZ or Nas type of east coast artist…

They more into the beat first, lyrics last

Boosie is a failure of a rapper. The end!

You southern dudes got all the west coast and east coast transplants moving to yall cities and the IQ levels are still low.

The south has some awful taste in hiphop. Boosies music is barely listenable

These same dudes whine all the time about NY bias because we don’t listen to Tela or some sh1t yet have stupid ass opinions like this which are clearly bias

Yeah you even see it on here.

A lot of southern dudes think it’s corny to listen to music that’s not made for a strip club setting

They just ain’t into music like that

This is true. Southern rap fans really do not give a fukk about lyricism, cadence, diction, or flow. So Jay being elite at all those things isnt a big deal to them. Theyd rather hear someone talk about things relevant to them.

...who asked for this s**t?

mayo lovers

Even with proof these nikkas are delusional

You a remedial by default based on your location so you probably were just confused

The type of cars Boosie fans drive



Homie sound like he a Boosie fan too

Looking at this thread. It makes so much sense why people who fail at life in the east coast and west coast run to the south.

I always say the south is a refugee camp site fore failures. People who suck at life know they they can down south and make a name for themselves lmao.

Imagine calling someone a hater cause Juvenile and Z RO ain’t on your top ten while also hating on Jay Z the 5th best selling artist in hip hop history.

Whose the Hater here?

 

[Westbama Heartthrob]

@HaitianPatty pull up. What you got to say about this one?

 

[Street Knowledge]

Of course

Let us call Kool g rap or roc Marciano c list rappers

Yall would be hurt

Plus you had nikkas saying shyt like this

Did you compare boosie to Kool G rap who influence the entire game

It boosie never existed nothing about hip hop would be different

Case in point

 

[Consigliere]

As long as we agree that Jay is the ultimate measuring stick for any and all rappers.

No more scales of 1 to 10. Or number of mics.



So I gotta give Big Boi 3.5/5 Jay Z’s as a rapper.

This the coli my Nikka. We don't appreciate, we instigate
