I'll never deny that KC, while a good album worth @ least 3/5 mics, is @ the btm of Hov's catalog along wit BP3.

Or that he showed obvious signs of rust, especially wit the flow.

But the nikka was going in lyrically, & in fact his bars are why I fukk wit KC over BP3 despite KC being an inferior album musically.

Kingdom Come by Jay Z

Prelude, Lost Ones, Beach Chair & Minority Report are classic introspective Hov.

Do U Wanna Ride is crazy especially wit how the Emory shyt played out, he was firing crazy shots on Dig A Hole, & Trouble was super arrogant Hov shytting on nikkaz, especially that last verse.

1st two verses of OMG & the title track where he ended each verse wit a superhero bar to tie into the overall theme are dope, & he was even spitting on Show Me What U Got & 30 Something (1st verse).

This is blasphemy to Avriex onesie rocking, Timbaland girdle sporting, dusty ass NYC nikkaz stuck in their Philly blunt & 40 oz littered time machines, but Big ain't fukking with Hov.

Hov has superior lyrics, flows & music. For every dope Big verse/song there are 5 Hov verses/songs that match or exceed it, plus Hov got him on every collab they did.

Big gets the nod for double albums cuz LAD is 5/5 & BP2 only 4/5, but TBA/BP/RD are all superior to RTD, plus Hov has another 3 classics in Vol 1/AG/WTT.

Big has no bad projects, but neither does Hov outside of Unf Biz, & for Hov to go 14/15 is way more impressive than Big going 3/3 (included Jr Mafia since Hov gets credit 4 Dynasty), & I didn't even count Unplugged or Collison Course. Add the S. Carter Collection, a borderline if not classic mixtape, & the shyt ain't even close.

I don't give nikkaz credit 4 unfulfilled potential, so to compare 20 yrs of excellence to less than 5 yrs is laughable. shyt, Len Bias mighta had the potential to surpass MJ, but I'm not crowning him the GOAT outta sympathy cuz he was too stupid to not indulge in that nose candy.

nikka, I'm clear, I done seen my cupboards bare
Heard money mentioned in my mother's prayer
Had nights my stomach filled up with nothing but air
Got 10 dollars to eat for 4 of us to share
That's why Hov act like that, quick to snap
Mac-11 ready, I ain't going back :wow:
