Is it fair to say that Nas is a better writer than Jay-z but Jay-z is a better rapper than Nas?

I Am >>>> Vol 3. HHID>>>>> Kingdom Come. Streets Disciple = BP2. Untitled was dope. Nasir wasn't good. Nastradamus better than people admit. Underwhelming tho. So that's 2 duds. 3 tops.

I would agree with all of these except I Am and Untitled. I Am has some classic Nas songs on it. Several of them. The first 6-7 songs range from dope to classic, then it falls apart with "Nas Is Like" and "Undying Love" being the only gems in the latter half of the album.

Untitled has:

Queens Get The Money
You Can't Stop Us
Breathe
Fried Chicken
America
Testify
N.I.G.G.E.R
Untitled
Ya'll My nikkas
We're Not Alone

Nothing on that album is particularly bad. I even like "Hero" and "We Make The World Go Round", but understand why people don't like them.

Jay-Z is barely better than Nas at anything.

Its like comparing Kobe to Jordan. Its absurd.

Stay Chiseled is a dope Nas hook, also "One on One" in a simple yet potent way

my critieria for a good album is "can i run it with minimal skips". cant do that with i am. at all. and untitled just doesn't connect with me idk ima give it another spin when i do cardio tonight.

Ether is the more important song than Big Pimpin. The Hook is DEF better. Made U Look is a better song than both. All around. Add I Can as well. More catchy than all of em. Whole generation of kids was graduating to that shyt. And picking beats and hooks are more similar than u think. Being that alotta beats come with the sample or hook already when the producer gives it to the artist.

Ether has a better hook than Big Pimpin?

Come on breh I know you was in the clubs when that shyt came on and everybody was singing the hook word for word. Nas hook game is very underrated tho

Jay Z
Lil Dirk
Nas

Jay Z is probably the worst rapper to ever come from New York. Bars extra corny. “Imma only up BIG like he my brother”disrespectful ass lines. Horrible flow. Kingdom Come his best album. Reasonable Doubt is like “what the hell is this. It’sgood he a good businessman, because otherwise he would definitely still be a struggling rapper like Jaz O orone of Nas hypemen. This guy has fooled the whole world just because he married Beyoncé




Corny

Got damn you deserve a neg train for this post. All kinds of fukked up points. Jay worst NY rapper ever. Kingdom Come his best album
