I think we agree that they have these certain similarities. In my opinion, that justifies making the QB Purple Tape comparison. You disagree. That’s fine.

I don't pay attention to these old ass nikkas beefing over bullshyt. Phil is 41, Mozzy is 37, nikkas too old for stupid shyt and it wasn't even street business. It was straight up rap beef...Who u think won the battle, rich or mozzy
I'm a fan of both but fukk that beef shyt. I will say, both them nikkas would be ahead of a number of nikkas on this NY list
Phil rode Fat Joe's "What's Love" beat harder than Crack did and Mozzy discog better than a number of these nikkas...
Is she more popular? She has a big impact as a female MC but Method Man today is more talked about and more importantly, revered than Kim. All I Need was a bigger hit than anything Lil Kim made and then the various other classic songs. Like the nikka made one of the most iconic hooks in NY rap history
At one point Method Man and Biggie were 1a and 1b as the biggest rappers in NYC. It was only really 94 through summer 95 but still. More than anything you could say about Kim. Even if you want to make it a pure popularity thing, even with underwhelming solo albums, Meth still had about a 8 year run as a viable commercial rapper.
Method man is the most popular member of one of the most popular groups in not just rap.... but music groups of all time

Clearly the goal.
Because people in the comments on IG are just as confused and annoyed as everyone on here, lol. List doesn't make any sense, at all. But that's to be expected with online sh*t, these days. Say crazy sh*t to get traffic. It's wild obvious.
This Meccaloposis is exposing himself. His main thing is all about history of NY street figureheads, fashion and parties etc.

The Ghost of Jack Tripper
True. He's from Maryland though.
We need some born and raised New Yorkers to cook something up.
There you go!
Thanks for that info.
based on his opinions in the top ny albums, its HIGHLY unlikely
he's gonna have big or Jay, prodigy prolly top 5 at least.
my bet is BIG and can understand
respect the work put into the list but based on his own criteria a few choices make no sense, feels it could've been done a bit better
and lol at Fab having stans... guess you do learn something new every day
my personal carefuly curated top 20 NY born MCs:

I am a big big Lord Tariq fan. From his work in Gunnruners, Money Boss Playaz, with Peter Gunz. I even check his work this decade with Ray West.

That One Mob Let it Blow used to go.nikka you 40 and called yourself an "old head"
Any head can name the biggest rappers from a city, but what this just told me is you can't tell me anything about Lil Blood, Philthy Rich, or Guap4000. Don't pretend like you really in tune with Cali rap like that
And if he was gonna go old school Northern Cali he should’ve named nikkas like the RBL Posse, The Jack, Mac Mall, etc to prove his point. Not nikkas that’s been well known

this clown really put tragedy followed by Cormega?? fukk outa here
This has to be a troll attempt or something like that, to gain clicks and discussions.
Look how low Method Man is rated. One of the most universally famous rappers, where even countries that don't speak English have plenty of Method Man fans.
One of the greatest flows, one of the best voices on the mic. A rapper who actually ramped up his skillset as his career was progressing. One of the biggest NY Hip Hop names in mid 90s when New York was still in its prime years. He has it all for a legitimate star status.
Zero explanation why he's so low, some shyt like posters are stuck in the 90s, then he proceeds to make several dusty 90s selections in higher places.
This is the classic situation when someone just ranks something he likes but then tries to present it as some objective ranking. Nah, what you like doesn't mean it's objectively the greatest thing.
