Why do people get upset. It’s his opinion. I’ll say it’s harder to do what Kendrick and Andre do to attain success, not knocking Jay in anyway. And I prefer Jay

Edit: like Jay said “it cost you nothing to pay me no mind”

Technically Thought and 3 Stacks are better but Jay-Z held down entire albums by HIMSELF while its becoming more and more apparent by the year that Andre was leaning on Big Boi heavily. Thought also had Dice Raw and Malik B for a lot of his prime but he’s held down solo projects himself.

I’m not putting 3 Stacks over Jay when all Dre had to do was hold down half the verses on albums. Black Thought i’d put above Jay on a technical level and even though i’m a huge Kendrick fan he’s been anointed as a top 5 all time rapper wayyyyyyyy too soon. Putting him above Nas, Jay, Common, Black Thought or Ghostface is blasphemy

Kendrick isn’t in my personal top 5, but how is it way too soon for him? His debut was 13 years ago, he has 5 solo albums, and he’s 37 years old right now. Now if you’re saying people anointed him top 5 after his 3rd album (TPAB) then I can agree. At the same token though, people were putting Biggie up there after two albums way back in the 90s.
