Respect Rakim a lot, definitely 1 of the GOATs but in what aspect is he better then Nas in the critera they listed?

Rakim Allah gave Rappers a style/flow/lyricism to run with it..
A true pioneer.

Absolutely agree.

This is the criteria they listed for the list…

Criteria: Lyricism, Popularity, Albums, Impact, Longetivity, Charisma

Let’s say Rakim gets Nas on impact…he does not get above Nas on any other aspect they listed.

 

[Diondon]

Yeah thought so

Jay Z being number 1 in anything is pathetic, he is not a pioneer..he fukking bites and copy trends!

Perfect top 3. Ra and Hov just have that extra something that Nas just doesn’t quite possess

Like?
Nas has arguably the Greatest Hip Hop LP!
Rakim & Jay do not! And never well.
Nas is touring in countless global cities..
His skin tone and hair are impeccable.

Nas and Biggie >>

Personally, I would rank Pac higher than X on all-time rapper list…But that whole X bit Pac aesthetic is overblown and seems like a surface-level media driven, IMO. Outside of being tatted-up, bald, skinny nigg@s, that’s where the comparisons stopped. I’m Rapping wise there are stylistically different as can be.

Based on the criteria for this list, X would rank extremely highly

The physical resemblance with him popping right after Pac died, with similar subject matter of emotions and pain. He sounded different and his style was different but thematically there was a lot of Pac there...

Prodigy gets love in the South. I just listened to Return of the Mac earlier

Bet, I just never been around any Prodigy heads!

Nas is better than Jay-Z. Skill, discography, longevity, impact.

Man hell nah. They got #1 right all the way...

 

[JA_Carter]

The heavily pro-Nas booth will be in shambles once they wake up

 

[Redwood]

I knew Jay was going to be #1 though

Love Nas, but Jay's got bigger hits.

A consensus is starting to be formed here on these greatest lists

 

[Ziggiy]

List is garbage
