Nope even during his best stretch 2004-2006, I could name 5 better rappers than him that was underrated while he was OVERRATED.

Between 2004-2007... yep.

Not by rappity-rappin'-ass-rapper standards, but I definitely felt like he was on his shyt and deserved respect as an MC and as the most popular artist out at the time.

But he's been phonin' it in for a good while now, all the way across the board. Got lazy as shyt after building up all that acclaim for himself. But that's what happens when a rapper gets so popular that people automatically like anything with his voice on it- it takes every bit of hunger away.

100%
But I'll say he was never good enough for people to think he should ever be considered #1
