He is amazing, and The Roots are elite, but I don't think he is in this tier IMO, you think he would have the same legacy if he wasn't a live band rapper? I don't

I mean he was the fukking frontman. Of course. lol. All he would’ve needed was a dope producer.

He dropped 2 undisputed classics; and arguably has the greatest hip-hop track ever created under his belt
Where are CL's follow ups to those albums without Pete Rock?
CL had more steam and after the group broke up, dude just fell off.
Then he drop in '07 with American Me.
Thirteen years of hip-hop moved on without him.
CL could have dropped two more classics by '00 if he got with another producer.
He wouldn't have missed a step with DJ Premier or Ski in '96 before Camp Lo dropped.
CL would have surfed over beats from '95-'99.
He could have done more.
Jay-Z is like Bucky after he got his arm ripped off. But he can easily take it back to being the Winter Soldier
Are we talking about right now or primes anyway? If we talking about right now,his avengers would get folded up swiftly

People would kill to have his legacy. You're downplaying his achievements. Just say you hate CL smooth and KIM

Nothing arguable about it my man. T.R.O.Y. is the GOAT hip-hop song.
Go jump off bridge if you disagree.

There were too many producers in NY at the time his group broke up for him to drop classics without Pete Rock.
C'mon, don't act like that. I wanted more from CL, that's why I'm disappointed in CL - I don't hate CL, I hate that he didn't rise to the occasion after Pete Rock.
Common is nice too famCommon instead of Nas?
Cole getting that respect. Talent is undeniable.
