These publications insist on disrespecting Big Boi time after time. His partner who he split mic duty with 50% of the time is a top 15 rapper ever and he ain’t even top 50
:heh:
agree...i really hate the narrative people took from one verse trying to set dre light years ahead of big...outkast is the only group in my top 10 list of rappers, they're there together.

Again, that's beside the point. Jada and Styles were in the same group. One of Jada's most legendary songs as a solo artist has him trading bars with Styles. Styles has solo albums that could be argued as better than Jada's. How many people argue that Styles is Top 5 Dead or Alive?

Hey man lol

I don't think either of them are top 20 tbh, but that's just me

People make top 10 lists all the time with Jada Top 5 and no mention of Styles. Nobody questions it with them, but people question it with Big Boi and Andre. The crazy part about it is people don't even give Big Boi his props on his own merits. It's almost always him getting his props in response to Andre 3000 being rated/ranked.
Only person I ever saw say Jada is top 5 was him
:heh:

I just noticed they got Kurtis Blow number 23
:dead:

No disrespect to the legend but not too many people trying to listen to Kurtis Blow these days when it ain’t the holidays

A lot of people have Jada in their Top 5 and the hype around Jada grew with the Lox vs Dipset Verzuz.
On a personal list sure. But a publication is supposed to be objective. So him being 46 sounds about right. And with most people taking Jada over Styles I can see how Styles didn’t make it
