Jay in summary

"Jack of all trades, master of none, though oftentimes better than a master of one"

he brings it all together the best, reason he's my #1, Nas 2nd

I personally think Em is the GOAT as far as rapping technically, but I aint playing that at a BBQ or with my wife and kids in the car

Lu ain't never came with nothing like interview with a vampire
He could write that in 30 minutes champ, lol…he’s informative and conceptual af. It’s not really high level rapping…it’s “just” informative and cool conceptually. I say “just” carefully because it’s one of my favorite rap songs ever, (NOTT is top 10).

Lupe could rap about a turkey sandwich…it’s gonna be high high high, possibly the highest, level of rapping…from a rap skill perspective. Ras Kass is more along the lines of Canibus, imho. They’re like the most fire PS1 games when PS1 first came out…Lupe is like GTA 6, in comparison.

Love them both, not trying to downplay either…just giving Lupe his proper respect, 🤷🏽‍♂️. Whatever tho, all subjective.

He can put it all together and market it to a large audience. Kendrick is probably the only person on that list that can do the same. 3k is unproven as a solo artist.


I don't think anyone claims that he's the best lyricist.

They’re like the most fire PS1 games when PS1 first came out…Lupe is like GTA6, in comparison. Different level.

Ya nikkas can't be serious right now
He the the all time heavy weight champion of flows
lead the league in at least six statistical categories right now
Best flow, Most consistent, Realest stories
Most charisma, set the most trends
And his interviews are hotter
