Because Push leveled up big time on Hell hath No Fury and has given 10+ years of solid solo material. No Malice has dropped a wholeeeeeee lot less music by comparison.
To be fair. Malice was out rapping Pusha all through the We Got It For Cheap series as well. People was still sweating Pusha back then but I always felt Malice was better and had more substance to his bars.

This the classic contrarian argument. Just like when people see Andre 3000 getting too much praise someone says “Big Boi was better anyway” Malice was very good and I always considered him and Push as equals but he hopped out the game and Pusha kept grindin (no pun intended) which is why I give Pusha the edge personally but if you feel Malice was better that’s fine. But saying he rapped circles around Pusha is an exaggeration

Pusha even been considered as anything is the biggest shocker I've ever seen.

Like that nikka is so mid... The shyt ain't even funny.

When them nikkaz was out back in the day... I ain't never heard anybody mention clipse as top rappers... muthafukaz could barely tell them apart.


Now people be acting like Pusha is nasty with his pen.

The nikka rap like he be saying some hard punchlines but them shyts don't be hitting.

He's probably nicer than alot of these guys now... He definitely wasn't nicer than the dudes that was out when the clipse first came out..
And they had the Neptunes stimulus...

But yo. .. big props to him
It's like he went into a time machine like
:jbhmm: "hmmm, what era will rappers be so trash that I could come back and be considered the best..? Oh shyt... There's an era where rappers are barely coherent... So no more fam":pachaha:

On Juvenile Hell, Hav and P were pretty much equal and not anywhere near elite emcees. Why is Prodigy considered elite and better now? :dahell:

When Blunted On Reality dropped, the Fugees were considered wack. Why are they considered elite and better now? :dahell:

On this date in 2002, I was 21 years old. Why am I considered 41 now? :dahell:

In 2009, Obama was President and Biden was Vice President. Why is Biden considered the President now? :dahell:

I always preferred Malice hustler with remorse and introspection steeez than Pusha. I’ve never been overly impressed by Pusha T solo work outside of Daytona. Always thought he was a good feature artist not an elite song writer. I’d take Gibbs over him in that aspect. I think because Pusha went at Drake people tend to exaggerate him being an elite lyricist.

Imma say it like this. Malice had a certain level of realism and introspection with his drug bars. Pusha always was more punchline laced n shyt like that. So this has been an argument since jump. Only big thing is now Malice ain’t really making music so it’s silly to say he’s better than Pusha at this point. But when they was both a group. Even during the mixtape run. I always felt Malice was better. And for the cat who tries to say it’s some contrarian shyt like Big Boi is better than Andre 3K. For one. There’s nothing wrong with thinking Big Boi was better because in real time they weren’t far off. Number 2. Big Boi actually has dope shyt on his own. Mobb Deep was a different situation entirely imo.
