Honestly I think Tay and El are neck and neck. I give Elzhi the nod on Hiding Place and Not Here Anymore, but I think Tay took it on No Competition and Destiny N Stereo.

They're both competitive on every song together though and some of it boils down to taste. I like Phonte's voice a little better and the way he talks shyt in rhymes. So I kind of prefer his verses. But El is just so sharp and precise that you can't help but be blown away by his talent.

I never heard Elzhi before Hiding Place. I was in Chop Shop Studios and Khrysis played the joint about a year before Minstrel Show dropped and I was thinking

:damn::mindblown: Who the fukk is this guest?!
Great point, yeah probably more of a taste thing, El is always smooth as butter on a track, Te gets into that choppy flow sometimes and it detracts from what he is saying imo.

First time hearing destiny n stereo:scust:, track is filthy, AND they had E Rob on that piece too:wow:

Haven't listened yet but I honestly hope that EL is back on his "technical" shyt, meaning complicated rhyme schemes and patterns.

He's strayed away from that on his last few projects for some reason. He's been rapping in a more simple, straight-up, poetic manner.

What made me a fan of EL in the first place was his technical skills.

Dude is still better than 98% of the game even when he spits "simple" but I really love his technical skills.

I gotta go all the way back to "Detroit Deli" and "Slum Village" to hear that eLZhi

which projects should i check out of slum village to hear where Elzhi is on all the albums? i dont recall him on vol 1 and 2 (thats all i have heard really from slum village)

He didn't join until the 3rd album. To be honest those slum albums post dilla are most trash except for the newest one which won't have El on it at all.
