With The Throne’s Niggas In Paris jumping from the #15 to #8 this week, Hov now has 18 Top 10 singles under his belt. Surpassing Lil Wayne and Ludacris (who both have 17 each) with the most Top 10s held by a hip hop artist. And for those keeping track at home, Ye is now sitting at 14.
News

no one’s keeping track
wayne obviously gonna shit on this so no reason posting this stfu nigga who posted this
seriously rap dudes, you can’t beat jay. i’m not even a jay stan, his rhymes are okay, but no one can touch this dude’s accomplishments. don’t even try, you just make yourself look dumb.
Hot new hip hop KRUE http://www.facebook.com/pages/KRUE/143948168984323
“accomplishments” materially, yes. lyrically… so young so clean so dope so old
^ why do you care about age?
people in hip hop gotta stop perpetuating this bullshit about hip hop being about young people. the fact is, that is the stupidest shit I ever heard. That is like saying rock music is only for young people back in the 1950s when rock was still a young genre.
hip hop is only 30 years old as a genre of music. it is INEVITABLE that hip hop will grow up. the only people dumb enough to think hip hop is for or about young people are young people themselves.
listen young kids, everything you’re doing, i’ve already done and i do it better. i’m not even old, i’m 25, but seriously young kids, your youth isn’t impressing anyone other than your tween customers.
grown man ish
so lil wayne is over 10 years younger and is only one record behind jay z? i really don’t see anything amazing about this accomplishment.. why did it even deserve a post
^ because life isnt a race you insecure aas negro. most decent people dont measure one’s achievements based on other people’s. only sucker niggas like you do that. an accomplishment is an accomplishment, that’s how people grow. i hope you teach your kids that instead of actually like life is a race.
Yall niggas really be on some shit…Hov is bar for bar better then anybody yall can name…and im not talking bout being impressed by nut ass lines like (“ill leave you dead in the living room”)(Lil Wayne ass bars at its best by the way) lol…kids these days are impressed by anything lol…
p.s. Hov’s worth Half a bill…and he came from nothing… that’s the accomplishment that counts…
@Chill co sign. fuck weezy he’s a damn punchline rapper, nothin impressive bout that. he’s super raw at it and i respect it but lotta dudes can be a punchline rapper, but u wanna hear dope ass lyrics u fools should go listen to reasonable doubt-specifically d’evils, better than any weezy song ever-and have ur minds blown.
BABY MONEY
That’s it? For Jay to consistently talking about how he’s the hottest rapper alive for the past decade plus, I’d think he’d average more than 2 per album. The people talking about Wayne being younger, that’s true, but him and Jay have been dropping albums for pretty much the same amount of time.
Congratulations to Ludacris though for being up there. Been in the game shoter and has less material, but is still 1 away from the number 1 spot.
@theBroking, Billboard can say whatever they want but Lil Wayne aint even close to Jay if we compare the overall success of Jays singles vs Waynes and there is only a three year difference in career performance between them. Jays first big single was Dead Presidents in 96, The Block is Hot came out in 99 but Jay has almost doubled the amount of singles Wayne has done in his career and Empire State smashes any single Wayne has ever done.
Jay-Z not better than Eminem
Jay looks like one of those girls who take mirror pics in the photo above
Jay is amazing , its funny to sit n watch niggas go hard on Jay when he has so much under his belt. Wayne cant touch Jay…Em is overrated, niggas jump on becuz everyone else does. His Bet cypher was okay at best. Em is an incredible artist no doubt one of the greats. But the greatest fawk no ! Jay pulled a MJ outlasted his comp..money wise, business, music. His run in HIP HOP is remarkable. Jay is the greatest becuz of his consistent run. Lyrically……..if he wanted to..he could…he RICH AS FUCK THO
Agree with Will (comment #1)
that song is dope!…so i see why it is…
…i swear i wouldn’t be on this site as much anymore http://t.co/6VIdhOz ..if i wasn’t making money every time I commented…
@2000′s em still a beast tho better than wayne anyday jay has accomplishment but realy him and em can get on the same rapping plate just two different stories told
@Malik
Nigga is that yo face or yo moms ass with albino cellulite?
Anyway of course Hovi Hov wouls be the first in that category, hell he is the first in all categories to me. For example, number one singles, having the dopest features and lastly having the stamina on stage, so you know he got it where it counts!!! Niggas in Paris 8 straight times is amazing, Wayne would never do She Will or Nightmares at the Bottom more than twice, why? Cause he don’t have the stamina. That is all bitches, have a nice day. :-)

Before you talk about age just remember Jay didn’t come into the game till he was 26 and is still the best hands down. The only comparison is Ye’. Not wayne.
I guess performing the song 8+ times in a row payed off. Well played sirs
:_( :_) ;=) ;-/ Faces that I make when no one wants to be my buddy
Daaamn Jay, time to start taking shots again.. “The 10 Best Subliminals of 2011 (So Far)” http://www.kidswastingtime.com/2011/11/10-best-subliminals-of-2011-so-far-10-7.html
marty mcfly yeah thats true but still… wayne is accomplishing more and by the time he reaches jays age he will most likely have accomplished twice as much. its all about statistics at the end of the day if artists want to be remembered in history
@theBroking, if what im saying is true then how is Wayne doing more? If were going off stats then Jay has done more especially if were talking sales in singles. Not even talking albums but Jay wins there too. Wayne and Jay both started in the early 90s its just Cash money had to get off the Hotboys album and Juves album first before Waynes album but both those projects made Wayne a known rapper even before his first album. Jay got barely any promotion for Reasonable Doubt but its still did well even without many people outside of NY even knowing him. If they both started in the early 90s but Jay has done alot more then how is Wayne gonna all of a sudden pass Jay? Wayne cant pass Jay because he doesnt have the skill level to do so, he mite still sell records but no hip hop head knows any lyrics of Waynes anymore. and @my troll, you still coming up with new ways to sound more like of a faggot? Smh I bet your the lamest person on earth.
Barely and Promotion for Reasonable Doubt? Um Notorious and Mary J Blidge. Who needs promotion?
There are rappers who have all the top artists featured on their albums right now but still dont drop they album because their waiting till they have the right promotion machine behind it. Wayne was already a multi platinum artist before his own solo album even dropped thanks to his features on other Cash money albums. Especially his feature on Drop it Like its Hot and the first Hotboys album. Jay had to start from zero with nothing, no label, no connections, no promotion, no nothing. You can give Wayne all the credit you want but the effect of his music on people in comparison to Jay is not even close. As an artist Jay has made better music as well as beat Wayne in stats. Jay did not come in the game off a platinum single about bitches dropping like its hot and his biggest record is not some bullshit called Lollipop. Jay built his brand off real hip hop.
I got a question, has any of these people inspired you to do something positive with your life. In my opinion wayne still has a ghetto mentality and dont encourage anyone especially kids to grow up, it just encourages self depricating behavior. Its like theme music to go to prison to. Jay spoke on selling dope when he actually had to, now he is more diverse and educated on more than just his block. Wayne and jeezy teach impressional listeners(younger generation) that selling dope and taking peoples lives are cool. Thanks for helping black folks stay in the ghetto wayne and jeezy. Nothing to say to luda but congrads!!!!
Is this supposed to be some big achievement or something? Shit, this ain’t even worth the time tbh.
^^^Exactly.
@Marty no connections no nothing? Well idk about you but I have never seen a NEW COMER come into a genre and get the two hottest stars in a genre on their debut lp. Secondly Jay did not build his brand off of real hip hop, he built it off of the drug game and living a lavish life. Cmon, you know that, that’s not real hip hop, that’s an open diary, real or fake, idk but nonetheless an open diary.
“Jay has made better music as well as beat Wayne in stats”
Correct me if I’m wrong but 2 out of 3 of Waynes album have went platinum in a week and a week and a half, while Jays album have not done that. So that is a bias statement you just made.
First your over hyping the features on Reasonable Doubt because people didnt even know they were on the album until after they bought it. 2nd so basically your saying Jayz first album isnt real hip hop? Be real with yourself cause people consider the album classic. 3rd, Waynes CB4 album going platinum doesnt erase Jay having 16 platinum albums. SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUMS SO THE ARGUMENT IS OVER JUST WITH THAT FACT RIGHT THERE. JAYZ IS THE G.O.A.T and im not just hyping it cause you have to admit that his career is impressive even if you dont like him.
I’m not over hyping nothing considering the fact, that Can’t Knock the hustle was the niggas first video, people knew about MJB. Secondly talking about slinging dope and drinking fine wine and dressing nice is really not what hip hop is about. And it’s ok for PEOPLE to consider it a classic, what I need you to understand is that just cause PEOPLE consider it a classic doesn’t mean EVERYBODY does. I have heard better from a first effort in a CD. Lastly, I put that about Wayne in their cause you act like Jay the only nigga selling platinum records Wayne has 7. Currently the only nigga other than Ye and Em to even sell a platinum record. Jay can do it to but don’t shit on Wayne to try to boost him up, what kind of shit is that?
^That’s a selective statistic tho.
BEST SELLING ALBUM:
Lil Wayne- Carter 3: 3,600,000
Jay Z- HKL Vol. 2: 5,300,000
TOTAL ALBUMS SOLD:
Lil Wayne- 13 million
Jay Z- 26 million
PLATINUM ALBUMS:
Lil Wayne- 3
Jay Z- 16
GRAMMYS:
Lil Wayne- 4
Jay Z- 13
Etc.
And for the record without the assistance of UGK Big Pimpin, which is his biggest hit would not have been as big as it is.
^^^Sorry dude, incorrect stats, Wayne has 6
1999 Tha Block Is Hot Platinum
2000 Lights Out Platinum
2004 Tha Carter Platinum
2005 Tha Carter II Platinum
2008 Tha Carter III 2x Platinum
2011 Tha Carter IV Platinum
Cant Knock the Hustle was the 4th single off RD not the first. His raps is not just about selling drugs because there is ALOT of statements said around the subject that deal with emotions, consequences, regrets, paranoia, pain, danger, loyality, betrayal etc on his first two albums. Jay isnt the only nigga to go platinum but who the fuck has done it 16 times? Dont worry ill Wait…
Say word? Big Pimpin is Jay Z’s biggest hit? Then why did Hard Knock Life, Give It 2 Me, Izzo, Girls Girls Girls, 03 Bonnie and Clyde, Excuse Me Miss, Change Clothes, Dirt Off Your Shoulder, Show Me What You Got, Run This Town, Young Forever, Otis, and Niggas In Paris ALL chart higher?
It’s an absolutely retarded argument anyway; similar to saying that A Millie wouldn’t have been a hit without Bangledesh. And it’s just ignorant to try to credit Jay Z’s massive success to UGK, out of everyone. That’s just random.
^^^Thanks for waiting Em has done it 42 times haha. EASY
And neither Lights Out nor Tha Carter are platinum. Check for yourself. But you’re right about Block Is Hot.

@vesuvius, all those songs that you listed are not his biggest songs ( but there still dope so its cool ) but by this time next year Empire State will prolly be DIAMOND. ITS OVER PEOPLE, UNLESS YOU CAN SHOW ME A RAPPER THAT HAS DONE MORE I THINK ITS OBVIOUS WHO RUNS THIS SHIT.
Haha Vagina, Vasectomy or whatever the hell that is, get the fuck on somewhere. You go out and ask anybody what’s his biggest hit and Big Pimpin will be spoken rapidly. Secondly find a better analogy, a group and a producer are two different things. That’s random lil nigga
Em has sold more but his sales just cant out weight consistency and artistic excellence. Now get mad or say a bunch of crazy shit if you want but this record right here will probably NEVER BE BROKEN OR DONE AGAIN. EVER
Are you still here, little kid? Isn’t it obvious by now how completely pathetic Lil Wayne is? You lost. Go put on a Drake record and cry about it.
I really don’t understand the fuss over these things. These are small things compared to what other artists have accomplished.
(Not gonna bring dude’s name up, but y’all already know.)
^Youre talking about Jay’s $500,000,000 bank account, right?
And Tha Carter did sell a mill. What you smokin’?
@pauly, write Em a letter and tell him to do about 10 more albums and then he can be on the same level because sales doesnt make him king in hip hop.
^^^Haha even dude is disagreeing with you, smh, V BOY you just need to chill
Anyway@Mcfly I know we talking about Wayne and Jay but since you want to say who runs this shit let me introduce you to Marshall Stats
The Slim Shady LP 5mil
The Marshall Mathers LP 10.4mil
The Eminem Show Diamond
Encore 11mil
Relapse 5mil
Recovery 6mil
Other Album Sales
Music from and Inspired by
the Motion Picture 8 Mile 9mil
Curtain Call: The Hits 7mil
Eminem Presents: The Re-Up 1mil
Oh yea Em was the first ever to sell a million records just digitally not Jay.
LOOKS LIKE WE ARE CELEBRATING THE WRONG DUDE, IF WERE GOING BY NUMBERS THAT IS
@Marty
“tell him to do about 10 more albums and then he can be on the same level because sales doesnt make him king in hip hop.? Why would he do that when he is the champ already.
@Vagina
Go play with legos, yo dumb ass gone come here and try to side with dude and he himself said you were wrong. SMH dumbass, you just need to log off and find something else to do with yourself
^Ha! This kid started off on some “dont be hatin” shit, got his feelings hurt over Lil Wayne, and now he wants to change his story altogether.
The internet is funny sometimes.
Em is the Hanna Montanna of hip hop so he could just say anything on album and it would at least go 5x platinum. Jay can only rely on skills because he is not the oddball of hip hop. Em is in the same lane as pop singers and country singers and thats why every time this argument comes up Em is the only thing people can use as competition. We all know there is a big difference between Jay and 98% of hip hop and Em.
The Slim Shady LP – 5x Platinum
The Marshall Mathers LP – 10.4 Diamond
The Eminem Show – 10 Diamond
(Lets also add in the fact that MMPL *or TES, I forget sometimes* was already really Diamond in 2005, but Em didn’t pay for the certification.)
Encore – 5x Platinum. 11x Worldwide
Relapse – 2x Platinum. 5x Worldwide
8 Mile – 4x Platinum. 9x Worldwide
The ReUp – Platinum.
Curtain Call – 2x Platinum. 7x Worldwide
Devil’s Night – Platinum.
D12 World – 2x Platinum. 3x Worldwide.
Am I making it clearer for you now, guys?
^^^Yea Em is that dude and V man posing as I AM TROLL. I will just ignore you because that what a real man would do, instead of acting like a pussyless bastard such as yourself. Do you even know who your dad is or were you just one of those nuts that was suppose to be on the back/face and ended up as a surprise to POPS nine months later? Irrelevant ass nigga, haha you just mad cause you tried to get dude to agree and he treated yo bumbass like an orphan.
And by the way the ones I put were just in the United States, Pauly is worldwide.
^That’s generally referred to as a waste of shelve space.
And you’re argument is bullshit, marty. You’re comparing Hanna Montana, who sold because she was PRIMARILY targeted at young children to Eminem, who sells because people older than 5 actually LIKE his music.
First of all, why in the world would I give a shit what “marty mcfly” says? I’m prety sure nobody in the history of this website has ever agreed with him on anything.
Second, how stupid do you have to be to start off with the phrase “I will just ignore you because that is what a real man would do” right before typing out an entire paragraph about how much you hate some random person that you think is me?
Third, all I have submitted are facts. You thought Lil Wayne could compete with Jay Z, and I proved with pure math that he cannot. You are a failure. I’m sorry.
By the way, the name refers to the most famous volcano eruption in the history of the world. Go to school, you ignorant little shit.
^I am you. I am the volcano.
@ Vasectomy
Naw dog, you are generally referred to as a ONE NIGHT STAND GONE WRONG. Stop trying to discredit artist to boost another, that shit is so lame and pathetic. SMH
Also, you said BIG PIMPIN was not his biggest hit, which it was and why are you even here, go take a DNA TEST DUDE, YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT THE WRONG THING MY NIGGA, THE WRONG THING.
Pauly I listed 16 platinum albums from Jay not 10 so Em still loses in consistency so now what? You just gonna scream sales, sales, sales, sales? Can you bring up any other rappers besides the great white hope? No. Also you could put up Ems greatest songs and I could completely destroy them 2 or 3x with material from Jayz ( You know thats true ) so what does that count for? Jay is the better artist because he has been hot almost every year of his career and again going platinum with 16 different albums without any gimmick, just his real life story is crazy. Especially when he speaks for a culture of people who all share the same struggle. Em is not the same kind of artist because he sales like a pop singer. Em did sale to kids and Jay aint crackin no jokes lyrically. His shit is grown man rap.
So because Em sells well, he isn’t part of the Hip Hop culture. Whatever, I’ll leave your borderline racism for another day…
“His shit is grown man rap.”
Funny. I didn’t know that contradicting yourself repeatedly was what a grown man did.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlT4aBN6W94
“Timbs? We off that.”
“Jay still wearin’ Timbs? I guess we still on that.”
STOP USING EM EVERY TIME JAY IS MENTIONED CAUSE IF YOU GONNA DO THAT THEN USE POP SINGERS AND COUNTRY SINGERS TOO. SHOW ME A REAL RAP NIGGA WITH SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUMS, IF YOU CANT THEN JUST UNDERSTAND WHY I HAVE THE OPINION THAT I DO ABOUT WHO IS THE BEST MC. STOP THE BULLSHIT ARGUMENT THAT JUST DISTRACT FROM THE SUBJECT, AGAIN SHOW ME A RAPPER THAT HAS DONE IT BETTER AND SINCE WERE ALL “REALLY” TALKING ABOUT SKILLS YOU ALREADY NO WHAT YOUR UP AGAINST. I JUST BROUGHT UP SALES CAUSE THATS WHAT YA’LL WANTED BUT AS A OVERALL ARTIST YOU KNOW WHATS UP

It’s so funny that he tried to shit on hammer but look at the top ten selling albums of all time and tell me if you see Jay Z? I will answer it for you, NO YOU WON’T
1. Eminem – The Marshall Mathers LP – 11.601.000
2. MC Hammer – Please Hammer Don’t Hurt ‘Em – 10.000.000
3. Eminem – The Eminem Show – 9.608.000
4. Beastie Boys – Licensed to Ill – 9.000.000
5. Nelly – Country Grammar – 8.369.000
6. 50 Cent – Get Rich Or Die Tryin – 7.612.000
7. Will Smith – Big Willie Style – 7.322.000
8. Dr Dre – 2001 – 7.122.000
9. Vanilla Ice – To the Extreme – 7.000.000
10. Nelly – Nellyville – 6.402.000
Haha Vanilla Ice and Will even shitted on him, I find it very hard to be called the G.O.A.T when you don’t lead in the most important category, hell he has not even went diamond on an album yet. SMH, this argument as pointless as dudes birth
And this shit “grown man rap” too, huh?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZCNs0rnKxk
LIFT AWWWWWWWWWWFFFF! SHIT MAKIN’ MY DICK SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWF!
Yeah, I’m done with this.
^^^Ayo Mcfly, you gone have another drink or you just gone babysit?
Haha and he is the GOAT, of fucking what?
“STOP USING EM EVERY TIME JAY IS MENTIONED CAUSE IF YOU GONNA DO THAT THEN USE POP SINGERS AND COUNTRY SINGERS TOO. SHOW ME A REAL RAP NIGGA WITH SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUMS.”
That’s the problem right there. You lookin’ at this from a Hip Hop view, but I’m looking at it from a MUSICAL view. Eminem transcends Hip Hop in every way, which is why you keep comparing him to Pop/Country artists…because he can’t be compared to anyone else in Rap…Out.

Now what rapper has a better list of songs? verse for verse, concept for concept? NOBODY so you can stay stuck on sales but Jay is also up there with some of the greatest but artistically none of you can or will ever come close to challenging this list of songs and this aint even the hits. ITS OVER , JAY IMO IS G.O.A.T. THERE ARE MANY GREATS AND I RESPECT THEM ALL BUT IF THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE ON THE THRONE…
Fine, Jay-Z is one of the Greatest Rapper of All Time, if not the Greatest.
But Em….ohhh that’s on another level. While your still stuck on rappers, again, Eminem and his entire career BREAKS THE BOUNDS OF HIP HOP. He is no long a Rap artist. He is a pure musical artist now, one of the greatest to be exact.
HAHA DAMN HE IS LISTING SINGLES. WELL WHEN JAY SELL A MILLION RECORDS DIGITALLY, ALONE, THEN HE CAN BE IN THE SAME FIELD. BUT WHEN YOU TOLD ME TO “Jay isnt the only nigga to go platinum but who the fuck has done it 16 times?” THAT’S WHEN I HAD TO GET THE WHITE HOPE (AS YOU CALL HIM) JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT EM IS THE MAN. IT’S NO ARGUMENT TO BE HAD OR MADE
Cant Knock the hustle
Politics as usual
Brooklyns finest
Dead presidents
Friend or Foe
The city is mine
Imaginary Player
Streets is watching ETC ETC ETC, I mean seriously I could go to each album multiple times and show you gems that no rapper you are comparing can fuck with. This type of rap is what artist today say would never work because its too real. COMEONSON
@Clueless nigga but Em did not go platinum with 16 different albums. That kind of consistency IS NOT WHAT HE DID.
I’m just saying, you wanted me to pick somebody that could hang with dude and that’s what I did. Along with put the little V nigga to sleep, haha fuckoutta here bitch. But anyway Em is just as good if you talking competition, the numbers for both are there, just scroll up dude.
The majority of sales in every genre of music except maybe spanish speaking music comes from white people. Em had unlimited resources when he came out to promote the fact he was the only relevant white rapper in 99. So you can say thats racist but you know its true so how the fuck is it surprising that Em has high sells. Fool Vanilla ice was one of the biggest rappers when he came out so was that just because of skills? HELL NO Now the only way you can go is to argue with sales but even if jay only sold 1 album a year. You cant front on the amount and quality of his material. Now are you getting what im saying or are you gonna tell me Garth Brooks sold more then Jay next. WE TALKING ABOUT WHO IS THE GOAT MC NOT WHO SOLD THE MOST WITH LESS ALBUMS THEN JAYZ.
Now before I go, Its cool cause really I just argue with the same fools all the time anyway just for fun but artistically this in one example of what im talking about. Now I know your gonna say the beat and hook is wack and thats ok because there are layers and layers and layers of substance in just one of Jays songs and thats what missing in hip hop overall. Most these rappers have forgot about the streets they come from, the people and culture they come from and they do not represent the shit they say they do. Songs like these is basically almost a persons whole life in one song and its not just jays because songs like these represent millions of people who feel the same way. Thats what the games been missing. Done – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odThhIA2gUM&ob=av2e
^^^That makes no sense especially when the nigga has said himself:
“Men Lie, Women Lie, Numbers Don’t” You are basically telling me to say Em is sales are worthless because he has fans (regardless of the ethnicity) and his sales proves it. And there you go again trying to discredit someones accomplishments by saying Vanilla Ice didn’t sale because of his skills. So that just leaves a dancing white boy with a high top fade, do you actually beleive people bought his shit for that reason. Once again you told me to match up and that’s what I did, whether the fool is white, black, green, yellow doesn’t matter, same genre different results. And Lastly NO I WOULD NOT TELL YOU GARTH BROOKS SOLD MORE RECORDS THAN JAY, YOU BROUGHT THAT BULLSHIT UP. HE IS COUNTRY, EM IS HIP HOP, TWO DIFFERENT THING. AND SINCE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE GOAT, WHY WOULD YOU BRING UP NUMBERS AND THEN GET PISSED WHEN I SHOW YOU THEM? FUCK 1 ALBUM AND FUCK 16 ALBUMS AT THE END OF THE DAY NUMBERS ARE NUMBERS AND ME NOR YOU CAN DECIDE HOW MUCH OR WHAT PEOPLE BUYS THOSE ALBUM, JUST ACCEPT IT.
No nigga you did not match up by using Ems accomplishments because all you have to say is his sales. When I myself said Em sold more before you even brought it up. Why because thats the same argument that every Em fan brings up every time so NO you did not match up in CONSISTENCY OR IN NUMBER OF QUALITY SONGS OR IN NUMBER OF “DIFFERENT” PLATINUM ALBUMS SO TECHNICALLY I HAVE THE BETTER ARGUMENT AND AGAIN EM IS TOTALLY A DIFFERENT RAPPER FROM ANYBODY IN RAP AND THATS JUST BECAUSE OF WHO HE IS NOT HIS SKILLS. JAYS CONTENT IS SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT BUT HE HAS DONE HIS STYLE BETTER AND MORE CONSISTENTLY THEN EM HAS DONE WITH HIS. HOW ARE YOU MISSING WHAT IM SAYING AFTER I POINT OUT SEVERAL DIFFERENT REASONS WHY EM NEEDS MORE THEN JUST SALES AND NOT HAVING MORE ALBUMS DOES PRESENT A VALID ARGUMENT AS TO WHY HE CANT COMPETE. Ok no more caps cause hopefully you get it now. Smh
^^Yea I get what your saying, IT’S DUMB AND NONSENSE, ALL OF EMS CDS ARE OF QUALITY AND IF YOU WANT CONSISTENCY EM GOT THAT TO, THE ONLY THING YOU SEEN WAS HIS SOLO PROJECTS. JUST LIKE JAY, EM GOT SOUNDTRACKS TO MOVIES AND GROUP EFFORT, WITH D12 AND HIS RECENT PROJECT WITH ROYCE. SO NO, I DON’T UNDERSTAND SHIT YOUR SAYING, YOUR ARUGMENT IS OK BUT IT HAS A LOT OF HOLES IN IT. HOW THE FUCK ARE YOU GOING TO CHALLENGE EM CONSISTENCY AND SAY JAY HAS DONE BETTER WHEN FUCKIN SALES SHOW DIFFERENT. REMEMBER NIGGA , YOU WAS THE ONE TO THROW THESE STATS UP AND THEN FEEL GOOD ABOUT THEM AND SAY SHOW ME ANOTHER WHO HAS DID THIS AND I DID. STOP BITCHING AND JUST ACCEPT THE FACT EM GOT DUDE IN ALL ASPECTS OF THE GAME. HAHA JUST BECAUSE YOU LIKE THE NIGGA DOES NOT MEAN THAT HIS IS THE UNDISPUTED BEST. THIS IS JUST LIKE THE RENEGADE SONG THEY MADE, BOTH WENT IN THE BOOTH, BUT ONLY ONE CAME OUT THE STAR AND HIS NAME WASN’T SHAWN CARTER. HAHA
NO YOUR STILL WRONG, EM CANNOT HANG IN THE CONSISTENCY DEPARTMENT. Em would have to out rap everybody for MOST of his career “meaning almost every year” and he DID NOT do that and even during the years he did there were other rappers out that made better music every year he had an album out. Jay wins by simply going bar for bar with everybody since 96, now fast forward to now and WTT is still arguably ALBUM OF THE YEAR. THATS ABOUT 17 YEARS OF GOING HEAD UP WITH EVERY RAPPER LYRICALLY WITHOUT EVER USING A GIMMICK, JUST HIS REAL LIFE. Em has the fact that he’s white and uses a comedic gimmick more then Nicki Minaj on every album. 50 cent has two diamond albums so does that mean he is the better artist? Shit 50 took Ems shine and then he FELL THE FUCK OFF. He does not have 16 projects that connect with the hip hop culture. I brought up sales to show you that each project from Jay connected. Ems last 3 or 4 projects even though they sold had little to no influence on hip hop at all. ALMOST ALL OF JAYS PROJECTS DID INFLUENCE THE CULTURE. For example how many people believe the BME album is album of the year? Now how about WTT? OK then cause we both know most people would prolly say WTT. Relapse, Recovery and BME are some of the wackest albums from Em and only pop fans relate to his corny shit. While American Gangster, BP3 and WTT all had a positive effect on hip hop. Nobody knows anything about Em last three albums except his nation of corny white pop n country fans cause white hip hop fans dont relate to Em cause the joke rap is old and played out and has been since the Eminem Show. Em dont even rep white folks correctly cause they dont wanna kill they wives and baby moms and they dont relate to albums full of wack bullshit that really means nothing. UNLESS EM has put out more projects then Jayz then he LOSES IN CONSISTENCY AND YES HE STILL LOSES IN QUALITY BECAUSE HIS LAST THREE ALBUMS IS SOME OF THE WORST RAP MUSIC IN HISTORY BECAUSE NOBODY KNOWS ANYTHING OR ANY LYRICS FROM HIS SHIT OR ANY NAMES OF SONGS CAUSE PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY FORGOTTEN ABOUT BME. HE DOES NUMBERS BECAUSE HE IS WHITE CAUSE LYRICALLY EM HAS BEEN ONE OF THE WACKEST RAPPERS TO TOUCH A MIC IN THE LAST TEN YEARS. GOOD DAY
Before I give you a rebuttal I would just like to say that you are a disgruntled, racist who only think Em success come from white people. That’s so fucking stupid, that it’s laughable. Jay does have records, BUT HE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE. You ACT AS IF EVERY LINE JAY SPIT CARRIES SUBSTANCE AND IT DOESN’T. Once again I only put up Em name because YOU,YOU, MARTY MCFLY ASKED FOR THE DUCKING STATS. His color has nothing to do with his ability to fuck shit up lyrically. And all Em fans are not POP AND COUNTRY FANS. BECAUSE IF THAT’ THE CASE ALL OF JAYZ ARE HOODRATS, HIGH SCHOOL DROPOUTS AND UNEMPLOYED NIGGAS RECIEVING BENEFITS IN THEIR PARENTS BASEMENTS.
Lastly if we are going to talk about lyricist I’m going to give you some of the illest EMCEES EVER. And I WANT YOU TO TELL ME WHERE JAY BELONGS IN THIS LIST. Before I write it, it’s in no particular order:
Tupac
Notorious Big
Big Pun
Big L
Nas
Big Daddy Kane
Lauren Hill
Rakim
That was just NY alone with the exception of Pac
Andre 3000(Outkast)
Bun B(UGK)
Eminem
Kanye (He belongs College Dropout is the best HIP HOP ALBUM EVER)
Common
LL COOL J
Mos Def
DMX
Now without been bias where does that man fit in with some of the all time greats?
Em should be compared to Tyler, D12, Luda and Nicki Minaj cause Em cannot fuck with any real niggas in rap. Even the guy he stole his gimmick from ( Redman ) is better then EM. Compare Jay to Nas or Wu tang niggas or Pioneers and Legends like the niggas you just named cause Em is WACK AND AGAIN FOR THE LAST TIME YOU DID NOT MATCH UP WITH ANY ARTISTS YET WITH JAYZ LEVEL OF CONSISTENT ALBUMS OR THOSE SONGS I LISTED. NOW YOU CAN USE ALL THE RACIST SHIT YOU WANT BUT MY OPINION STILL STANDS ON THE FACT THAT NOBODY KNOWS SHIT ABOUT EMS LAST THREE PROJECTS. IF YOU THINK JAY JUST SELLS TO ONE KIND OF PERSON THATS FINE BUT LIKE I SAID EARLIER IF JAY ONLY SOLD 1 ALBUM A YEAR, NO FUCK THAT, IF JAY NEVER SOLD ANY ALBUMS IN HIS LIFE. HIS MUSIC WOULD STILL BE BETTER THEN EMS. I LISTED SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUMS ANF MORE THEN 20 SUPER LYRICAL SONGS THAT DO CARRY WEIGHT IN SUBSTANCE IN EVERY LINE. NO ARTIST YOU CAN NAME CAN EVEN COME CLOSE TO THAT LIST. YOU BETTER USE TUPAC OR LL COOL J CAUSE ANYBODY ELSE DOESNT STAND A CHANCE. ESPECIALLY EM CAUSE HE SUCKS AND HIS MUSIC IS TRASH.
AND I did not ask for any stats that fall short of 16 platinum albums, especially since we started out talking Jayz vs Lil Wayne. You brought in Em cause thats what everybody does when they have nobody else to compete with. They just say Em cause he sales, he sales, he sales but deep down they know that Em had some of the weakest most forgettable lyrics ever since 05 cause other then his singles. You dont KNOW ANY OF HIS LINES. WHY? CAUSE THEY WACK AS SHIT.
And I forgot my nigga Talib Kweli, Jay himself even said “LYRICALLY I’D BE, TALIB KWELI” on MOMENT OF CLARITY. So I rest my case in that department, even yo IDOL know the deal, he ain’t the GOAT of a Damn Thing.
PLEASE LIST A RAPPER WITH SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUMS…
And its not about being platinum cause that just implies that those albums connected. What im saying is the level of quality SONG WRITING FOR YEARS IN A ROW IS UNMATCHED BY ANY RAPPER. Not by Talib Kweli, or Bun B ( lol ) or Rakim or by any legend that has been dead for ten years. WHY CANT YOU SEE WHAT IM SAYING? YOU HAVE TO BEAT 16 PLATINUM ALBUMS AND MORE QUALITY SONGS TO EVEN HAVE THE RIGHT CONVERSATION ABOUT SOMEBODY BEING A BETTER MC. ITS THAT SIMPLE IDIOT. Jay – IF SKILLS SOLD TRUTH BE TOLD…. If you gonna quote niggas then quote the whole line and keep it in context.
Haha you gone tell me what I do and don’t know? Nigga you need help. In the song Moment of Clarity his exact fucking line was
And the music I be making
I dumb down for my audience
And double my dollars
They criticize me for it
Yet they all yell “Holla”
If skills sold
Truth be told
I’d probably be
Lyrically
Talib Kweli
Truthfully
I want to rhyme like Common Sense
(But I did five Mil)
I ain’t been rhyming like Common since
When your sense got that much in common
And you been hustling since
Your inception
Fuck perception
Go with what makes sense
Haha that there sounds like a gimmick, he so called gave up who he was to do those number you keep on throwing up. LMAO wow, that’s pitiful don’t you think?
^ not really. we dont need more broke black men talking. we got plenty of those. we need more black men obtaining, wealth. in my opinion.
word to ghadfi r.i.p.
^^^What are you talking about? You mean a nigga with “Half a Billion Dollars” making shirts saying OCCUPY ALL STREETS and keeping all the profits, which is contradicting what the people in tents and getting mased is trying to fight against because he is part of the 1% with high income. While me and you are the 99% sit up here and support his punk ass? Yes REALEST WE NEED MORE LIKE HIM INDEED, SELFISH, ARROGANT, ASS HOLES. NO DOUBT
Why do people ALWAYS use those same lyrics to discredit Jayz? Cause it only proves he’s right cause you dont understand what those lyrics mean even after he broke it down for you. WOW go look at that list of songs I put up, now look at every song he did after Moment of Clarity. Does it look like he dumb it down really? Minority Report, Beach Chair, So Ambitious, Forever Young, New Day etc… Its like even when you look at the lyrics from the song you chose to break apart you still dont understand the lyrics even when there written right in front of you. Do people praise his songs like Murder to Excellence? NO, they’d rather hear Niggas In Paris x amount of times. Now is that Jays fault? No, thats what Moment of Clarity means. PEOPLE STOP USING THAT SONG TO DISCREDIT JAYZ CAUSE IT MEANS YOU DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT HES SAYING SO YOUR THE PROBLEM CAUSE YOUR PROBABLY THE REASON WHY HIP HOP IS SO COMMERCIALIZED AND JAYZ IS TALKING ABOUT YOU WITH THOSE LINES. Em fans = pop fans like I said.
AGAIN WITH THE OCCUPY WALL STREET SHIT, IF JAY IS OFFERING TO MAKE OTHER PEOPLES VOICE HEARD BY SHOWING SOLIDARITY? WHY WOULD YOU TAKE THAT CARD OUT THE DECK JUST TO PROVE A POINT BY SAYING, JAY IS IN THE 1% SO HE MUST BE THE PROBLEM? FUCKING IDIOTS, JAY PUT MORE PEOPLE THROUGH COLLAGE THEN ANY OF YOU PEOPLE COMPLAINING AND IF THE GOVERNMENT IS LISTENING WHO ARE THEY GONNA LISTEN TO FIRST? PEOPLE IN POVERTY OR ANOTHER PERSON IN THE 1%? HELLO
first, ppl like jay and even oprah arnt even in the top 1%, look it up, first off. second, i knew ppl wouldnt agree and would damn near hate me for it, thats why i had to say in my opinion. to explain my point would do more typing than i ever did, and its too early for that over here on the west coast. so ima just stand by my statement. that and the ghadfi. nigga.
College. lol
^^^Thank you my making my point with “they’d rather hear Niggas In Paris x amount of times. Now is that Jays fault? ” Is it Ems fault that they want to hear what he is making, is it Waynes, no. Thanks for contradicting yourself. If people like the shit then, YOU GET OUT ON STAGE AND YOU PERFORM THE SHIT. YOU DON’T ACT LIKE YOURSELF AND COMPLAIN ABOUT HIP HOP CAUSE IT’S STUPID, YOU DO WHAT GETS YOU PAID. SO THANKS FOR MAKING IT MORE CLEARER FOR YOU.
AND JAY IS NOT MAKING NO ONE VOICE HEARD WHEN HE IS “TRYING TO SUPPORT THE CAUSE” AND MONOPOLIZES PRODUCTS, THAT’S WHAT THIS SHIT IS ABOUT. COMMON PEOPLE BEING CHEATED AND THE RICHER GETTING RICHER.
HOW IN THE HELL CAN YOU RESPECT A NIGGA THAT DOES THAT AND THEN PUT “WHO ARE THEY GOING TO LISTEN TO”. THAT’S THE PROBLEM HE GOT YOU NIGGAS BRAIN FUCKED ACROSS THE BOARD, LOL IT’S AMAZING.BUT YOU WOULDN’T UNDERSTAND YOU JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE HE PUTS OUT AN ALBUM NEXT YEAR. SMH
soo…….you hate him bcuz hes rich? lol thanks for proving every point i make in jay-z debates lol. oh the irony.
Stay on topic cause there is a new post for Occupy Wall street and Jayz , where he talks about the peoples voice being heard. So if he didnt support that he wouldnt have even been there to answer it or he could have said – no comment. Instead he is using his own voice to keep the peoples voice heard. Now Im still waiting for someone to name a rapper that has sixteen platinum albums and since you tried to pull a fast one by chopping up Jays verse from Moment of Clarity, ill give you the whole verse since you take shit outta context and still dont understand a song he did like 9 fucking years ago that you yourself remember.
The music business hate me
’cause the industry ain’t make me
Hustlers and boosters embrace me
And the music I be making
I dumb down for my audience
And double my dollars
They criticize me for it
Yet they all yell “Holla”
If skills sold
Truth be told
I’d probably be
Lyrically
Talib Kweli
Truthfully
I wanna rhyme like Common Sense
(But I did five Mil)
I ain’t been rhyming like Common since
When your sense got that much in common
And you been hosteling since
Your inception
Fuck perception
Go with what makes sense
Since
I know what I’m up against
We as rappers must decide what’s most important
And I can’t help the poor if I’m one of them
So I got rich and gave back
To me that’s the win, win
The next time you see the homie and his rims spin
Just know my mind is working just like them
^^^No I actually respect him because he is, what you missed was Marty basically saying that Ems sales should not count as hip hop sales because his fans are simaliar to those of pop and country fans. Meaning they would buy anything just because his name is on the cd. That’s not true because every cd Jay has dropped is not a classic nor is every song. So you proved nothing, the only irony is the bias towards Jay when approach with another artist that’s just as good. So what are you saying? If anything you talking to Marty using Em color for his success and not his skills
*Go with what makes sense/cents (double entendre)
lmao the man is nice. STOP HATING!
NO again because Em selling so much is cool at the end of the day because thats not even where this shit started. Thats not the MAIN POINT IM MAKING. Cause you have been running from the main point ive been making for hours now.
^^^No I haven’t in all Jay has 16 like you said and Em has 14, solo, group, collab and independent your problem is you don’t want to accept it. True all of them have not went platinum but if we talking numbers, he crushes Jay
oh. well Ems sales has nothing to do with him being white(maybe like 1%, see what i did there lol) but his success is due to him BEING ABLE TO(keyword, bcuz he doesnt do it all the time) make songs like Stan(one of the best) and sing for the moment. dre’s production(niggaz forget this is dre’s protege) and his actual lyrical talent. the white boy use to kill niggaz in battles EVERY time.
and then also his life story and unpredictability as well. all these factors is what leads to his numbers. but at the end of the day eminem is A goat. no denying that eventho i dont listen to him personally
Ok then 14 is not 16 so Em is doing no crushing. Sells is outta Jays control but QUALITY SONG WRITING IS NOT AND THATS WHERE HE HAS BEAT EM CAUSE EM DOES NOT HAVE SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUMS AND CAN NOT MATCH THE NUMBER OF QUALITY SONGS AND JAY IS NOT GONNA SELL AS MUCH BECAUSE ALOT OF EM FANS DONT OWN ANY OTHER RAP ALBUMS BUT EMS AND THEY DONT UNDERSTAND THE CULTURE THAT CREATED HIP HOP AND THEY DONT UNDERSTAND THE LIVES THAT JAYS MUSIC REPRESENTS. Em hasnt been dope since the Encore lyrically. White America I could be one of your kids. Jayz is not that.
And yes I still have respect for Em and No all his fans are not the same kind of person but Ems music is not what Jayz music is. There is no comedic gimmick involved and Jay isnt the only black Mc in a sea of white rappers. Jay had to use skills the whole way through, thats the difference. Em used skills as well but not for 17 fucking years straight like Jay did.
Correction 16 years straight I guess. Now are we finally done at this point?
@Realest me and you are on the same page dude, it’s not his color, but his skills, THAT’S WHAT I NEED MARTY TO UNDERSTAND. I ALSO APPRECIATE YOU SAYING A GOAT AND NOT THE GOAT. IT’S A BIG DIFFERENCE, I WISH DUDE COULD SEE THAT. It’s damn near impossible for an artist to deliver a classic on every album. The only person to EVER DO THAT IS MICHAEL JACKSON. RECORD SALES, CONSISTENY, ALL OF THE ABOVE
@Marty I was about to agree with you on his consistency, that’s about the only thing I can give up, he and Snoop are the champs in that area. But when you say shit like “EM FANS DON’T OWN ANY OTHER RAP ALBUMS” & “THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND THE CULTURE THAT CREATED HIP HOP” That’s bullshit, bias and your opinion, NOT FACT, BECAUSE I OWN SOME OF HIS SHIT AND I LOVE HIP HOP AND I’M NOT THE ONLY PERSON. STOP BEING RACIST AND MAYBE YOUR POINTS CAN BE VALID.
@Marty He can’t help because he is white. I mean that is what fucking up your statement, I don’t look at him as a white rapper, nor Jay Z a black rapper. I only see EMCEES
There is no comedic gimmick involved
^ the comedic gimmick is substituted with braggadocious materialism. lets be real.
and @ clueless nigga, im glad you caught that difference in A goat and not THE goat. there are too many great rappers now. rap 30yrs old. the small set of goats are goats in different ways. the jay and em arguement is redundant. thats like arguing whos better, magic or bird eventho bird played more games
-_________- redundant.
^^^My Nigga, that’s all I been trying to say Jay is like Shaq. He is ONE OF THE GREATEST TO EVER DO IT. But their is still Hakeem, Kareem, Wilt and Bill Russell. It’s to many greats doing this shit for their to only be ONE GOAT. Glad somebody understands.
Not all Em fans ( like I have said many times ) but millions of them are disconnected from what the true hip hop culture is about… and you didnt bring up Snoop because if you did we would have had a completely different conversation because Snoop was an Icon before Jayz. Plus rappers like Common and Nas are arguably more lyrical then Jayz but thats not what YOU brought up.
16 platinum albums
arguably 5 classics
RD, In My Life Time, BP1, The Black Album, American Gangster
arguably leading one of the most successful and influential labels in rap – Rocafella which is now Roc Nation ( the Roc never died like you mite thought it did )
Consistency, lyrical excellence and even right now I could say WTT is the best album this year. So from RD to RIGHT NOW AS IM TALKING, JAY IS STILL A FACTOR but yet you cant understand why Id say he’s the G.O.A.T.? Look around, not many other MCs can say the same things.
@the realest, you seem to think Jays materialism is almost the same as Ems comedic gimmick when Em used to put on 20 costumes in every video and mention 20 pop stars a song for attention? NO Clueless nigga also brought up the same thing earlier but here the thing. HIP HOP CULTURE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE ARTFORM WAS ALWAYS HEAVY ON BRAGGING AND MATERIALISM. Jay has balance, go look at the list of songs I put up earlier, how many of them are mainly or even remotely about materialism. EXACTLY
80% percent of Slick Ricks rhymes were about materialism but is he still a great MC? YES so you cant discredit Jay when he gives you much more them materialism.
^^^ALL OF THEM, IF HE IS NOT TALKING ABOUT LIVING LAVISH, HE IS TALKING ABOUT DOPE AND THE DRUG GAME. HE WENT FROM CAN’T KNOCK THE HUSTLE, TO 99 PROBLEMS. I SAID THE SAME THING EARLIER, LOL THAT’S HIP HOP? AND IF IT IS THEN EM CAN BE CONSIDERED HIP HOP TO, THAT’S THE ONLY THING I’M SAYING. ERASE THE FACT THAT HE IS WHITE AND MAYBE YOU COULD SEE WHAT I’M SAYING
@ marty
just has bragging and materialism has been apart of hiphop, so has clowning. thats what battles are about actually, just clowning the next man. eminem takes it to another level just as jay does. a videos like “big pimping” bottles being poured on asses and money flying around was not common earlier in hiphop.
same shit, different toilet
and you messed up bringing in slick rick. his whole style, swagger and persona was a comedic gimmick
Im done man, go listen to RD again and ask yourself if it hip hop honestly because the structure of his rhymes on that album line for line is some of the greatest lyrics on a rap album ever. He aint just saying being a drug dealer is the best thing on earth, in fact on his first two albums he spend most of his time saying that he wishes he wasnt in the game cause its cost him alot. It wasnt all good times, matter a fact here is another example of what im saying- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5K661a-78iI
Now read between the lines. Jay represents a struggle you could never understand cause chances are you never had to live it to survive. Just him being open enough to explain it with integrity lyrically but at the same time express how wrong he was is some real MC shit homie. Thats hip hop but again you cant get it cause you still trying to figure out Moment of Clarity. Smh
no one is denying reasonable doubt. its post RD thats the arguement.
Im done cause I have just explained so many misconceptions about what the lyrics of Jayz really means im probably in the double digits at this point. Ya’ll will never get it. No disrespect to 2DBZ just having fun but I have more then enough reasons to back up what im saying and when its all said and done and Jay walks away from the game, dont mention Wayne and Em in the same sentence cause really they aint cut from the same cloth as alot of real niggas especially Jayz. G.O.A.T
^^^I understand moment of clarity, I was just reiterating what he was saying about Talib. Basically if he didn’t switch up to what the masses like he would be like Talib, a dope emcee with nothing to show for it in terms of sells against other rappers. But that’s why he can’t be the GOAT in my book because he had to CHANGE HIMSELF TO APPEAL TO THE MASSES. No doubt the nigga is ONE OF THE BEST, HE GOT LYRICS FOR DAYS, BUT THE GOAT. That means no other nigga to ever pick up a MIC can fuck with him and I just can’t CONCUR ESPECIALLY WHEN ALL THOSE PEOPLE I LISTED EARLIER ARE IN MY IPOD ROTATION. I open up to music, I can’t just pick one, in fact, like I said Micheal Jackson is the only GOAT IN MY BOOK. IT’S JUST TO MANY DOPE EMCEES TO CHOOSE ONE.
The reason it’s hard to call him the GOAT is because he fuckin Bureau has some of the illest ever. Notorious, Talib, Kane. Cmon, dude and that was not even the whole NY. I CAN’T DO IT
lol em yes, wayne no. and if you REALLY REALLY wanted to go there, sir nas is hands the THEE GOAT. fuck all the bullshit.
You can jump in the conversation hours after it began or you can continuously change the subject but again. SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUMS, ARGUABLY 5 CLASSICS AND THE ROC EMPIRE AND 16 YEARS OF CONSISTENCY ON THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF ARTISTRY IN HIP HOP. Nas is great but cannot say all those same things and Ether was not as factual as Takeover cause it was mostly comedy lyrically like Ems claim to fame. Talib and Wayne as well are not like Jayz either. If you think he switched up for the masses or did some gimmicky bullshit again I have listed songs that you cannot challenge or outdo with anybody elses shit except Nas but then again I brought him up in the first place but again, SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUM… That aint Nas
nas is thee god mc. no other way around it. hes the best lyricist to ever do it, his stories are some of the realest and most vivid, he never switch as jay clearly did(see RD and post RD, point proven) and nas STILL brings social awareness and conciousness in his music since he came out, but jay stopped and or drastically slowed down after RD.
only thing jay has over nas is money and numbers. and i’ll speak for nas and all nas fans and say, jay can have that lol
@Marty
Well I guess it’s safe to say that in terms of Records and the Industry Em is his match.
He got platinum records so does Em
He got Grammies and so does Em
He had the Roc Empire and Em has Shady (Remember 50 is his artist)
And the one point I fell to bring up is that neither one of them is leaving anytime soon so this argument is really premature. It can only be valid when all is said and done, but until then I see an even match and not THE GOAT, but two of the best to ever do it thus far.
and to think this all started from me…
anyways in response to this aruguement going on, marty mcfly and pauly d have to be two of the lamest kids i have ever seen on the internet.. it seems like every jay z or eminem post made these two morons have the exact same arguement? opinion is opinion for fucks sake. you two do realise that you look at this from the outside in you have two people who will NEVER back down on who is the greatest of all time yet they still keep shooting the other artist down like it will make any difference at all.
In my PERSONAL opinion, i prefer jay z to em. thats mainly because jay z is a much more raw artist, his shit is the essence of hip hop while em has way too many pop sounding shit. like honestly eminem was in my top 5 before recovery but after that album i just could not listen to his music anymore. once you come from being one of the most interesting guys in music to making shitty sounding pop singles and a rap album mainly with poppy sounding songs (see wont back down, space bound)i just cant fuck with it anymore.
wont back down was HARD. and em has never been in my top anything. when the beat went down and that nigga said “turn my shit UP when my shit playin!” lmao that shit was too hard. that nigga was spittin so much i forget that it has a hook!
overall the album was poppy, but wont back down seemed like the most raw on that album. just bcuz pink was on the HOOK doesnt automatically make it pop. smh. niggaz all confused.
quote: “NO YOUR STILL WRONG, EM CANNOT HANG IN THE CONSISTENCY DEPARTMENT. Em would have to out rap everybody for MOST of his career “meaning almost every year” and he DID NOT do that and even during the years he did there were other rappers out that made better music every year he had an album out. Jay wins by simply going bar for bar with everybody since 96, ”
uhh didnt jay lose to wayne at the grammys in 09 for best rap album? lol brah comon now. c3> american gangster bar one or two songs on c3. also jayz said himself that lyrical ability is all down to opinion so why are you argueing? numbers dont lie.. came from jayzs mouth? although numbers dont mean everything, it certainly does show the amount of success an artist has had.
c3> american gangster bar one or two songs on c3.
^ stop it.
and numbers dont lie? stop it. this nigga came out missing lol
“this nigga came out missing lol”
Haha
ok wont back down was a bad choice for an example my apologies now please i look forward to marty mcfly and pauly d to respond to my first comment.
btw pauly you really do not do anything for your reputation on this site when you change your pic so damn much and to such immature pictures. you also change your name all the time to such immature names e.g PAuly D TROLOLOL VERSION. since when was this youtube dude? people dont try to act cool here just pic a damn name and stick with it
c3 > american gangster how is that funny? you do realise music is subjective? you constantly saying one song is better than the other (saying it as if it is a straight FACT) is so pointless because it is all down to opinion…. can a song be determined if its a better song by using a mathematical equation? no so please sit down and shutup with your elitist opinions
Marty/theBroking/PaulyDizzline. yall are like the tallest midgets when it comes to oppinions. the smartest retards if you will.
i fux with the realest tho…on some homo shit.
@ thrbroking
lol c3 is not better than american gangster. fact lol.
and you just said c3 was better minus one or two songs as if it was fact, now your hiding behind the “its just an opinion” bullshit. man up. stand by your statements and then prove it. dont be a bitch about it.
and @ tompetty
lmao no the hell you dont.
see theres where youre wrong you dopey fuck.. im pretty sure that broking didnt state it as a fact but as a personal opinion that he had!!!!! maybe the dude thot it was better than american gangsta except for 1 or 2 songs!?!?! how can u automatically say u kno what he was thinking tho?? that just proves youre arguements are not to be relied upon
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 PLATINUM ALBUMS.
^^Uh Oh Haha
“c3> american gangster bar one or two songs on c3.”
^ now, where in that statement did he say “in my opionion” or ” i think” or anything of the kind. now unless “>” means in my opionion and not better or greater than, fall the fuck back. i didnt say i knew what he was thinking, i simply reply to ONE statement. you dopey fuck.
16 Platinum Albums is awesome but 2 albums in the top 10 selling in the genre and those same albums going diamond is something that’s crazy.

Now are there any questions? NO because every single last one of these songs are lyrical as hell and have substance on many levels other then drugs and money. Show me a song that is just wack for the majority of bars.
And for the last time punks. SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUMS.
IF YOU CANT MATCH OR AT LEAST COME CLOSE TO THIS QUALITY ( AGAIN QUALITY MEANING BARS, CONCEPTS ECT… ) OF SONGS WITH SOMEBODY ELES MATERIAL THEN THAT SHOULD TELL YOU SOMETHING.
@clueless nigga, 50 has diamond albums and so do other artists BUT WHO THE FUCK HAS SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUMS? THAT IS SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT. DIAMOND IS GREAT BUT DOING SIXTEEN HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL ALBUMS IN 16 YEARS IS SOMETHING DIFFERENT. THAT IMPLIES FOE EVERY YEAR FOR A DECADE AND A HALF YOU CAN MAINTAIN THE SAME QUALITY. THAT SAYS THAT THAT ARTIST IS THE TRUTH.
Haha you left to get more songs, lmao sorry dude the only thing I’m seeing is an absence of:
1. Eminem – The Marshall Mathers LP – 11.601.000
2. MC Hammer – Please Hammer Don’t Hurt ‘Em – 10.000.000
3. Eminem – The Eminem Show – 9.608.000
4. Beastie Boys – Licensed to Ill – 9.000.000
5. Nelly – Country Grammar – 8.369.000
6. 50 Cent – Get Rich Or Die Tryin – 7.612.000
7. Will Smith – Big Willie Style – 7.322.000
8. Dr Dre – 2001 – 7.122.000
9. Vanilla Ice – To the Extreme – 7.000.000
10. Nelly – Nellyville – 6.402.000
WHOLE COMPLETE ALBUMS, NOT SINGLES DUDE, WHOLE FUCKING ALBUMS
^ i see those songs and match you with every nas album. including features. only thing jay has is numbers.
@Marty Jay is ONE OF THE BEST, CAN’T SAY THE G.O.A.T, to be the G.O.A.T. you have to be the best through all categories in your field, that has yet to happen. Look at the numbers dude
AGAIN WHO HAS MAINTAIN A LEVEL OF PLATINUM STATUS FOR THE SAME AMOUNT OF YEARS THEY BEEN IN THE GAME ( 16 YEARS ).
Whats the last MC Hammer album that was relevant?
Vanilla Ice?
Beastie Boys?
Will Smith?
Nelly?
So how the fuck are they the better artist vs Jayz ( meaning they are also more lyrical and you know it cause thats what your actually saying ) ?
Because they have diamond albums they better? They need 16 diamond albums not 1 or 2 or less then ten. Can they go diamond 16x cause they sure aint go platinum 16x.
@realest, Dont claim shit you cant do, if you can match them with Nas songs then do it but that aint hard to do cause I could do that too thats why I mention Nas earlier ( but matching up those songs would be extremely difficult ) What you cant do is use Lil Wayne ( which is the argument that started all this ) and what you cant do is use Ems music cause he is just a garbage MC nowadays.
So how the fuck are they the better artist vs Jayz ( meaning they are also more lyrical and you know it cause thats what your actually saying ) ?
They are not necessarily better and he is not necessarily the G.O.A.T. My point is, if a nigga is the greatest to ever do it, they have to be that nigga in categories not just consistency. John Stockton (NBA) and Kyle Ripken (MLB) are the two longest players in their respective sports but are they the best? No, but respectively both of them are GREATS, NOT GOATS. Sorry man, just because he has dropped an album in a string of years doesn’t make him the BEST OF ALL TIME, BUT HE IS ONE OF THE GREATEST.
Correction on my last comment: Matching Nas songs to the quality of Jays songs is possible but would be difficult because Jays songs actually penetrated pop culture as well. But the Nas argument is something everybody knows is possible so why would you bring Nas into it after millions of people already have? Same with Em. This whole shit came from ya’ll taking the attention away from Wayne cause you know he dont stand a chance and then for the sake of sport I jut said fuck it, ill take on anybody with these Jay songs but ya’ll switch people when it gets difficult and now were at a point where were comparing Vanilla Ice and Nelly to Jayz? This whole shit has took a terrible turn for the worst. Just give up Jayz = Better then anyone you can accurately make a case for.
@clueless, its more then just consistent on a regular level ITS CONSISTENCY ON A HIGH LEVEL SIXTEEN TIMES. Consistency is not everything but its one of the hardest qualities to have as an artists. Alot of people come out every year, hardly anybody puts out successful material every year or almost every year, especially sixteen fucking times. If it was 8x cool or 10x cool but fucking 16x? Now its just starting to look like the best run in rap overall.
@ MARTY
IN YOUR OPINION, FINE, BUT PERIOD. NO CIGAR MY BOY
@ marty
lol you mad you mad ahahahahahaha
you mad bcuz im right. every nas song from every album can match if not beat your jay songs. thats just the facts. and that is all
Lastly, I respect what your saying, I need you to know that I agree with you to an extent. Once again Jay is ONE OF THE BEST TO EVER DO IT. BUT HE IS NOT THE GOAT. To many dope emcees have come and gone, many have been underground and others have been mainstream. SOME HAVE SEEN DIAMOND AND OTHERS HAVE NOT. But at the end of the day he, Em, Nas and all the real emcees are greats, it’s to many of those to have a G.O.A.T
^ he got it. marty dont.
@the realest, no I aint mad cause at the end of the day you aint gonna list all those Nas songs that you think are better then Jays because for one Jays subject matter will be conceptually better, more specific and direct and more lyrically well put together and those same songs crossed over to mainstream culture as well while still maintaining their artistic integrity. So by the time you come up with 85 equal or better songs from Nas you’ll realize you still fail. And thats coming from a huge Nas fan and im not saying its not possible but I wouldnt want to attempt it cause it wont be easy. I personally like Nas a little more then Jayz cause I personally feel more of a connection to his music BUT Jay is on some shit too so imo he’s the Goat cause the songs ive chosen will stand against any artist now add that number SIXTEEN to the mix.
Apparently, theBroKing loves to suck my dick to an extreme and unhealthy level.
Get off mine and worry about yours, bruh.
Oh. Final point: Jay is a legend. Em is a legend. Numbers Don’t Lie. The End.
we get the 16 bit already.. holy shit
Numbers dont lie but they also dont tell the whole truth. So just cause Jay said it doesnt mean it applies to everything. CB4 sold the most albums I think this year so is Girl pants the best MC this year? NO. The last time Em was respected by the people who really appreciate the culture was in 04 with Encore. Ever since people just say Em is good just to say it cause the really dont mean it cause nobody is riding around listening to Relapse or Recovery or BME cause that would be corny as hell to pull up playing that shit. @theBroQueen, what is unmatched in THE NUMBER SIXTEEN IN TERMS OF EVERY SINGLE YEAR OF JAYS CARRER HE HAS HAD A SONG OUT THAT HAS HAD AN EFFECT ON HIP HOP. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 PLATINUM ALBUMS AND WTT IS ALBUM OF THE YEAR. DONT SAY SHIT ELSE UNTIL YOU OR PAULA OR THE FAKEST CAN LIST SONGS AT LEAST 50 SONGS WHERE EVERYONE CAN SEE THAT EM HAS LYRICALLY EARNED THE RIGHT TO BE IN THE SAME CONVERSATION WITH NAS OR JAY. SO IF ALL THREE NEVER SOLD NOTHING, NO RECORDS AT ALL. WHO IS THE BEST MC BAR FOR FUCKING BAR? I HAVE PROVEN MY CLAIMS WITH THE NUMBER OF CONSISTENT ALBUMS ( 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 QUALITY AND IMPACTFUL ALBUMS, NUMBER OF ARGUABLE CLASSIC AND MORE THEN 80 SONGS WORTH OF LYRICAL MASTERPIECES BY TITLES OF SONGS. I HAVE PROVED AND BACKED UP MY CLAIMS AND YOU CANT MATCH UP WITH GARBAGE RHYMES ABOUT GIMMICKY JOKES. I HAVE SPOKEN… GOOD NITE
BAR FOR FUCKING BAR – JAYZ IS GOAT aka THE NIGGA WITH 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 YEARS OF CONSISTENTLY EFFECTIVE MUSIC THAT IS REASON WHY HE BEEN TELLING YOU TO WATCH THE THRONE. Mac Miller has out rapped Em this year Bar for Bar with better mixtapes then his wack B.M.E shit. BME = BULLSHIT MUSIC EMINEM
“Mac Miller has out rapped Em this year Bar for Bar with better mixtapes then his wack B.M.E shit.”
It’s stuff that you post like this that makes me sure that you have NO respect for Em at all. You prolly just said that you respected him to get some people here on your side. But it’s cool, dawg. Be as contradictory as you would like.
@Marty McFly
Dude just shut the fuck up already. Jay is NOT the GOAT. In 16 albums he has 1 classic album that no one can even argue (Reasonable Doubt, in my personal top 10), and two albums that you can debate if they´re classic (Black Album & Blueprint). Vol 1 was average. Vol 2 was average. Vol 3 was average. The Dynasty was average. Blueprint 2 was average. Kingdom Come was average. American Gangster was part good but mostly average. Blueprint 3 was average (some might say whack). I have never wanted to listen to the R. Kelly collab albums nor the Linkin Park collab album so I´m not gonna judge on that. Watch The Throne was dope, a classic even if you shaved of about half the album and kept the songs that were actually dope instead of having average crap like Lift Off and shit like that.
You can say w/e you want but with his 16 albums, only 4 have been better than average. That´s not consistency. And Jigga has made tons of whack ass songs, while a rapper like Biggie only made like two (Playa Hater & Nasty Boy and I honestly think he made those as a joke, especially Playa Hater) whack songs in his whole (short-lived) career.
Jay is a lyrical mastermind, there´s no denying that but he´s also sold out too much (instead of going to Preemo & Pete Rock he went to Timbaland who´s made the same beat since 98) to really use that lyrical ability to propell himself to an undisputable GOAT candidate.
em fell off, he’s been soundin tacky lately. especially that collab wit rihana
and jay only relevant now cuz he makes sure he’s making songs with whos hot right now
the only man i see close to the G.O.AT right now…
well
who else could it be …N-A-S…NAS NAS NAS!!
Well when you perform the song 13 times in concert…
^^^Excuse me dog, Kingdom Come was ass, with the exception of a couple (2) tracks.
@Marty
“Numbers dont lie but they also dont tell the whole truth. So just cause Jay said it doesnt mean it applies to everything.”
Like hell it doesn’t apply to everything. Why not? He made the saying and he along with his STANS STAND BY IT. Hell you are the only person on here talking 16 albums, so why does Em two diamonds not get any respect? That’s why he ain’t the GOAT, he does not have his name in all categories and he said it himself!!! Men Lie, Women Lie, Numbers Don’t
And one more thing, it is kind of crazy for you not to give Em his credit and say that he is all gimmicky when MEN AND WOMEN HAVE GAVE HIM HIS SALES. So somebody likes his shit
Everybody acting like if you and Em fan you don’t listen to any rap/hip=hop you no nothing and you go about eating turkey drinking wine and shit. Thats bs man Em raps about serious shit all throughout his career. He don;t got as many 1 singles because the guys only got 6 albums. Hes sold more records than any other rap artist how many rap artist got 2 diamond records….? I love Jay and this is a fabulous accomplishment but people acting like they that different are crazy. They both try releasing shit with the same buisness model of having a few heavy radion playing tracks per album and they go with it. People acting like only white people buy em’s shit thats obviously not true, and whats the difference if he did race to equate to being more hip hop. The times when Em has rapped with Jay he slayed him on his own shit. Its undeniable why do you think Jay didnt jump on forever, he had already been there lost that. I mean I love em both they both tell two sides of the American experience inbetween all the craziness and club bangers which are typically number ones. I just wish people paid the respect thats due to everybody out there doing rap on those guys level.
@unclesamie, If Jayz is so average then why the fuck are you saying he’s a lyrical mastermind? If he’s so average then what the fuck is Eminem? You telling me you was riding around listening to “Im not afraid to take a stand, EVERYBODY”? Em was screaming louder then dude from Linkin Park and rapping lame. You call Jays albums average but truth be told when most of his albums came out we all heard his songs almost everyday. When HKL2 came out TV and Radio and everybody in the streets played his music all year long every single day and you know thats the truth because of the HKL song, Nigga What Nigga Who, Money Cash Hoes, Can I get A and Money Aint A Thang. Same with HKL3, ( Do It Again, Big Pimpin and Hey Papi )The Dynasty Album ( Change the Game, I Just Wanna Love You, and Guilty Until Proven ), BP1 ( H Izzo, Girls Girls Girls and Song Cry ), BP2 ( Yes when BP2 came out they played the shit out of this album all over TV and radio in every city in the country and if you think back you no its true ) Why? because of songs like 03 Bonnie & Clyde, Excuse Me Miss, The Bounce, and Nigga Please. The Black album ( Change Clothes, Dirt Off My Shoulder, 99 Problems and Encore. Kingdom Come – Show Me What You Got, 30 Something, Lost Ones. American Gangster – Blue Magic, Roc Boys and Hello Brooklyn. BP3 – Run This Town, Empire State, On To the Next and DOA. NOW AT THIS POINT I HAVE NOW NAMED OFF MORE THEN HUNDRED SONGS THAT HAVE HAD A BIG EFFECT ON THE SOUND OF THE CULTURE. Now you mean to tell me his shit is average? You see how stupid you sound? While Em fans in the suburbs were making his “average music go diamond ( because there is 8x the number of people in those communities in america vs the people that Jays lyrical content represents so of course Em would sell like Hanna Montanna ) Jays singles were playing EVERY SINGLE DAY ALL DAY LONG JUST THINK BACK AND YOU’LL REMEMBER THAT EVERY TIME YOU TURNED ON TV OR THE RADIO YOU WOULD HEAR AT LEAST TWO JAYZ SONGS PER HOUR AND YOU KNOW ITS TRUE. For multiple years you heard Jayz coming outta every car in the streets and in every single club you went to every weekend. Em Cannot say the same things, yes his music had an effect but overall it was not like Jayz. Now take into account that Beanie Sigal, Freeway and the Young Guns and Dipset and Dj Clue and Kanye and the Ruff Ryders and Method Man and Redman and even R Kelly was all riding with Jayz and yelling out Holla and Its the Roc. Now you saying Jay is average? WHAT YOU CALL THIS KND OF RUN IS A COMMERCIAL TAKEOVER NOW ADD THE OTHER 80 PLUS SONGS OF REAL HIP HOP I LISTED EARLIER AND YOU WILL SEE THE NO ARTIST STOOD A CHANCE UNLESS THEY WAS ON JAYS SIDE IN SOME WAY SHAPE OR FORM. people be saying Em out rapped Jay on Renegade, FOOL THATS THE POINT CAUSE YOU DONT GET A FEATURE AND THEN OUT RAP THE FEATURE, THAT DEFEATS THE PURPOSE IDIOTS AND THAT SONG IS ON A JAYZ ALBUM THAT MOST OF HIP HOP SAY IS A HIP HOP CLASSIC THAT KEPT THE TRUE ESSENCE OF THE CULTURE ALIVE THAT YEAR. JAY WAS ON THE OTHER 12 SONGS ON THAT ALBUM SO WHO REALLY CAME OUT ON TOP? HELLO. Now what you fucking retards fail to understand about the number SIXTEEN is not just the fact they all went platinum. Its the fact that this nigga made SIXTEEN ALBUMS THAT ALL CONNECTED. You still even as we speak have NOT MATCHED up with my over 100 examples of why Jay is the better artist vs Em and Lil Tunchi. Face it there is just too much to overcome. I mean seriously even WTT this year has almost smashed the competition in lyrical ability, subject matter and beats and commercial appeal. This niggas music was so influential that people was trying to dress like the nigga, for almost a decade 98 – 05. He put on a throwback then it was the whole fucking throwback era. He put on a button up and then every mothafucka had to get a closet full of button ups. Now think back, the only people that had on Shady clothes were some of the lamest most corniest white folks you’ve ever seen right? OK then and again there is millions and millions more of those kind of people then there is of Jays core audience thats why Britney Spears and Taylor Swift come out selling way more the fucking Beyonce and why Justin Beiber comes out bigger then fucking Kanye West. You can call me a racist but im talking about the number of people in Ems demographic vs people in Jays cause its almost ten times the size. But AGAIN BAR FOR BAR, ALBUM FOR ALBUM, SONG FOR SONG, YEAR FOR YEAR, HIT FOR HIT, JAYZ WINS HANDS DOWN. So im not just talking Ems 6 or 7 solo albums because Infinite flopped harder then Reasonable Doubt and Relapse and Recovery are the lamest albums out. Im talking Jays complete takeover of the hip hop culture for the past 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 FUCKING YEARS. While Em struggles to write good music like the beginning of the Lighters video, Jay has been going in the booth with no pen and paper and just giving you his real life, no gimmicks no bullshit just real shit. When Otis dropped this year every single hardcore hip hop fan should have went crazy cause you know that shit was pure and for commercial fans they got their songs this year to jam to cause I for one understand why they would like Lift Off and why they would go crazy for listening to Niggas In Paris 10x in a row. Now unless you can show me how Em is ARTISTICALLY better then the shit ive just showed you then STFU and have a nice day.
Im done 2DBZ. Out
^^^
You got too much time on your hands, tbh.
Fuck a bitch, smoke some weed, get a job, mow the lawn, paint a fence, do the jig, bake a cake, walk a dog, watch a movie, eat a steak…ANYTHING BUT POST BULLSHIT ON 2DBZ ALL DAY.
marty, you can’t possibly be so self-absorbed that you think anybody in the entire world is actually gonna read that.
Thats cool nobody gotta read all that shit cause its just for the people who was in the conversation. People gonna take it all type of different ways but hey you cant say I make statements without backing the shit up though like the people who my comment was aimed at. Im done with it as far as the Jay vs Em comparison argument.
What if the song was called Faggots in Paris?
Where would that song be on the Billboard charts?
Where would Jay Z and Kanye West careers be now?
What if they used a slur demeaning to Jews or another
religious or ethnic group? Why the double standard against
Black Americans?
@mcfly @pauly @vesuvius @clueless
you guys should get each others numbers instead of going off on these comments for reals
@marty mcfly
Um, where did I say ANYTHING about Em? I mean, I don´t agree with you that he´s “the Miley Cyrus/Taylor Swift of rap”, he´s clearly incredibly skilled and dope lyrically but I don´t really listen to him that much, I´m pretty sure I don´t have a single solo Eminem song on my iPod.
I NEVER said Jigga was average. I said most of his ALBUMS were average cuz watered his shit down with whack-ass singles. I mean do you know a single dude who´d say “yeah, that Bonnie & Clyde joint was mad ill”. Nah son. There´s not a single male out there who´d say that. The thing is, I don´t give a fuck if they played Jay-Z´s singles all day, every day, for 80 fucking years. If shit is whack, I´m not gonna give it recognition. Cuz fact is, most of Jigga´s singles that weren´t of his classic albums were whack. Dude knew what sold, so he sold out and lowered the quality of his work. For that, no matter if he has 16 or 74 platinum albums, he will never be considered the GOAT.
How is WTT more commercially successful than c4? Can you not read numbers and statistics correctly?
I find it wierd how people say Em copied Redmans Gimmick and say whes whack when Jay copied pac,em,dre,biggie, and 50 million other rappers “: I’m liable to go Michael, take your pick
Jackson, Tyson, Jordan, Game 6″ yea that was a biggie line. Em is way more versatile when it comes to rap. The main difference btween the two is eminem is able to rap about ANYTHING. Jay is not the GOAT
^^^I sorta agree with you. Jay has been able to mix just about everybody style and damn near make it his own. He got Biggies lyrical content in terms of talking materialistic and living lavish. He got Big Daddy Kanes wit and got Big L thought process down pact in terms of adapting to a beat as soon as he hears it. He is like a damn sponge and I believe people like him so much and try to put that GOAT label on him because he has a little bit of all the GREATS in him. But Em is nothing like that, Em is a beast and he is original, NOT SAYING THAT JAY ISN’T, but Em came in talking about killing his mom and girl and as weird as a concept it was, it was amazing that he could give you a story like that and keep his sanity. At the end of the day Em nor Jay is the GOAT, but Em started rapping by way of CYPHERS and killing niggas, so if you think he is “MAKING GIMMICKY MUSIC” in my opinion he has the right to because everything that he has possibly done was of greatness and he is at a point now he is just having fun. But NO RAPPER/EMCEE OR WHATEVER WANT IT WITH THIS MAN, NOBODY. BOTH ARE GREAT BUT LIKE I SAID, I DON’T SEE A GOAT.
@unclesam, Thats where your still wrong. First off yeah we all know Em got skills but after he signed 50 cent he did not rap the same and he lyrically got much weaker. Thats one 2nd if 03 Bonnie & Clyde is wack, so what? what does that have to do with him being around dominating most of hip hop for sixteen years? Now you say he sold out but Jay has put three platinum plaques up on Dj Premier walls before 99 and even after he blow up he went back to Premo and speaking of Premo, who gave him that nick name anyway? Oh let me remind you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmsAw7xrcKM Now after selling almost ten million albums with raw hip hop of course he would work with Timbaland and of course he would try to make music that sells cause trying to be more successful makes sense fool especially if you already on top. Now people are saying he took Big and Pac and Big L style? and whats more crazy is dude saying Jay took Em and Dre style? See thats what I mean, you have to make up shit that makes no sense to even have an argument. Have you ever heard a Big album? How does that sound like Jayz? Be real with yourself cause Jay was rapping different. How did Jay take Big and Pacs style when they’ve been dead since the 90s and even when they were alive he was already rapping? When did Pac make songs like 22twos and Feeling it? Whos album or flow pattern sounded like Reasonable Doubt before Jay? OK then so dont just say anything and @ Clueless nigga, Jay was also a battle rapper before he got famous and he went all around NY jumping in cyphers and battling and on his first and 2nd album he also told stories so just stop the bullshit. Jay been rapping great since 95 but now you say he been biting 10 different rappers? COMONSON the content of his music is his real life to the point where he dont even write it down so how the fuck is he biting but using his life experience to do it? Smh Em was a dope rapper with his first three albums but lets be honest when he signed 50 who became the main focus in his camp? Em was still ok but did he out rap 50 when he should up? NO he actually started falling off after Encore and you know it.
cool hes old. still better then all these wack mcs (lil wayne)
Changing my name in 2012 cause I see whats going on 2DBZ. just saying
@Anyone saying Jay-Z is sold out or doesn’t deserve to be called GOAT. Do you fools listen to music or do you just skim through it? Seriously, cuz I think if anyone listens to Jay-Z and understands what he is saying you’ll respect his greatness. You don’t have to like his music but at least respect it. Black Thought always has my vote for Greatest Ever but there’s definitely an argument for Jay-Z too.
random but wayne went in on that ‘run this town’ beat on no ceilings lol. people never credit wayne for the verses he spits on his mixtapes which is what most of his fans like mainly Drought 3, no ceilings, lilweezy’ana, the dedication series. You can discredit the quality of C3 either besides comfortable, lollipop and ms. officer. I’m from the south though.
But jay Got caught doin 55 in a 54 mph zone lol (there is no 54)

1/3 of Jays Verses are recycled Biggie lines. Jay Z did not name Premier, “Primo”. You are not a Jigga expert. Save the soliliquies for the Drama class. Your opinion is not law. Jays “greatness” is a product of us having to settle for less. HipHop turned pussy after Big and Pac died.

Shave this list by more than half…..you really are a JayZ dick rider Marty. You listed “Justify” twice…Everyones entitled to their opinion, kid. You need to get over it.
BTW, Im late on this cuz I have a life.
This may be the greatest post I have seen..
Amen @herbergement internet. I feel like all these niggas is just wanking each ther off at who did more pulling up stat cards like they kids playing pokemon and shit. DONT YOU NIGGAS HAVE A JOB? 2DOPEBOYZ! Y U NO KILL DIS POST!
okay fine.. I’m sorry its just that i really love cock and i think that jay gives that good dick… you guys just wouldn’t understand
you love this? 7 star handbags french inspired to take huge discount affordable handbags at my estore
Dude, marty, I can list an even larger list of Lil’ Wayne songs that have ten times more substance than any of those shit Jay-Z songs.
@Datruth, Then do it and stop talking
@Troll, yes you are a true faggot no matter what name you decide to troll.
I just dont understand how men can sit around and brag about another man’s money.. That’s the type of shit lil kids do around their friends bragging about the size of daddy’s bank account. Find something better to do with your time, because if anything is guarenteed in this life it is that you will never see a dime of their money.
Secondly, Rappers having money does not attest to the quality of their music. It exzhibits whether or not they can make buissness savy decisions and the mainstream appeal of their music.
Quality & Appeal do not always go hand in hand
Thats the thing though, this has nothing to do with money, we talking BARS. This aint about nothing but BARS, its everybody else changing topics. Im ready to just drop it at anytime cause one thing it doesnt look like im gonna see is evidence of somebody making better hip hop, song for song between 96 – 2011. LYRICALLY
lol yo. this post is STILL going. i last commented on the 9th, and i was late THEN! lol smh. that shit cray.
and marty you hella dumb. nas still trumps jay-z in all lyrical catagories.
@the realest THEN WILL YOU JUST PROVE IT AND THEN IM DONE. I listed what 100 songs so show me where Jay is spitting wack shit or show me a bunch of Nas songs or anybodies songs where they just lyrically doing more. They shit dont even have to make sense ( like Jays does ) and they shit dont even have to be real ( like Jays is ). It dont even have to be on a consistent basis ( like Jay has been ) Does that make it easier? Im not trying to come off like an asshole either, I honestly want to see what your lists are looking like.
Haha, this is sad. Everytime this nigga has a post on here it gets to this point about him being the greatest of all time. I was talking about this shit on another one of his post and then I look to the right and see the whole blog jump on this one. SMH, this shit is ridiculous, I hope that he gets a chance to see this shit because it’s straight non sense
Haha, the irony, IT’S THE SAME FUCKING POST
The thing is this, I would argue the point if you brought up any rappers in my top 25 but ya’ll have decided to call out Jayz material and have the nerve to say its no way he can be the greatest. Now that may be true but it has to be proven at least in some way and thats it.
He is not the greatest, that’s just it. Writing down 100 songs and trying to dictate that they are the most lyrical masterpieces you have ever heard is one thing, but when you want to convince me that out of every dope rapper to ever spit he is the G.O.A.T. is another. I respect you and your opinion but that’s where it stops. I can’t say with a straight face that Jay is even in my top 5, 10 yes, 5, no.
The biggest reason I can’t see him being the GOAT other than it’s to many dope emcees to call him that specifically, is that he brags about materialistic things or he talks about drugs and then he calls himself HOV. What the fuck is that about when in my opinion your not the best to come out of your Bureau, let alone your city, state, country or ever. When I listen to a Nas and a Talib, If I Rule The World and Just to Get By (NOT THE REMIX) I feel that is true hip hop. Hell you wanted to look down on Em and say he got out shined by 50 but the same can be said about Jay and Ye. College Dropout is the dopest cd I have ever owned and I don’t think Jay or himself can ever surpass that level of material. I mean at this point I’m just talking to air because I know you are going to start dropping Jay albums (probably Reasonable Doubt) but I just don’t see G.O.A.T on him or anybody else.
Meant burrow
@Clueless nigga, Ok then so peace out, anybody else?
niggaz is saying jay-z not the greatest bcuz hes not the greatest. hes one of the greatest, but what your trying to say is that jay is the best OUT OF EVERYBODY. jay is IN COMPANY with pac, biggie, nas, em, and andre 3k. they are all for different reasons. one of jays reasons being his consistency and numbers, pac’s being his impact on hiphop overall, and others etc.
but to say that jay is the greatest simply bcuz he has the most numbers is bonkers. jay never had to fight with labels, jay never had his progress impeded, jay was never shot or killed, jay did what was expected of jay. if pac and biggie didnt die jays success wouldnt be as astonishing. if nas found the proper label or link’d up with a dame or puff or a producer, his numbers would be different. if em made less dumbass songs and more stans , things would be different. if andre dropped solo albums, things would be different.
jay did what was expected and nothing more. his best albums were RD, the blueprint, the black album, and american gangster. 4/11. c’mon. thats not even half. thats not greatest of all time. hes still great, but in terms of greatness, jay is average. which is why hes not THEE goat, but A goat.
co-sign @ clueless nigga
Haha, my statement is valid by way of his infatuation with CRYSTAL until they made those comments and the book DECODED, decoding the “street slang”, if anything he is just a nigga who is trying to make his next dollar. A very consistent artist but pound for pound BARS, he lacks against NOTORIOUS, BIG L, PAC, NAS, TALIB, AND BIG DADDY KANE. Those niggas aint “GIMMICKY”. haha
@ Clueless nigga, The Black album came out when 50 was at the hottest of his career and The Black album stood its ground, just so you know.
@the realest, so Jay hes in the company of other great rappers? OK and Jay has never been shot? OK, Nas never found the right label? OK I guess thats Jays fault. Then you bring up albums saying 4/11? When Ive seen you argue over people saying Kingdom Come isnt dope on multiple occasions and ive seen you right paragraphs on that albums content but whatever, if your saying 4/11 its like your saying those other albums aint dope or something when fact is those other albums had a HUGE effect on the streets and hip hop culture. In My LifeTime – made Jay famous, HKL2 sold 5 million and brought in Ja Rule on Can I get A and created a successful tour nation wide. HKL3 slept on but still very dope. Dynasty = big on radio and brought in Beans and Freeway and was a super dope album, I could go on but you would act like you dont remember anyway. So are those your final complaints or not?
@Clueless nigga, yeah we get it nigga you dont like Jayz because he raps about money. Even though rapping about money has been around since the beginning of rap and 2nd do you guys even know who your talking about. ITS FUCKING JAYZ, IN EVERY INTERVIEW THEY ASK HIM ABOUT MONEY AND HE CAME IN THE GAME AT A TIME PUFF AND MASTER P WAS RAPPING ABOUT MONEY ALL THE TIME AND AGAIN ITS FUCKING JAYZ SO WHY DO PEOPLE EXPECT HIM TO NOT TALK ABOUT MONEY WHEN YOU ALL KNOW HES WORTH A FUCKING BILLION AND HIS FIRST MAJOR SONG WAS DEAD PRESIDENTS? Thats like being mad at Immortal Technique for rapping about politics. Smh now is that it? Or can you find something else to complain about all while knowing those songs I listed have deep meanings behind them? Is that it? I get it you two dont think Jay is the greatest cause other people are great too and he talks about money. Ok I get it now is there anybody else? Or can we let it go now.
yes I’VE defended kingdom come and I like it, its missing a few songs and needs to cut a few so its not in contenstion with RD and others. and 4/11, thats terrible for someone who been in tha game as long as he has and with as much control he has.
and yes, we can FINALLY let it go.
@the realest Oh Yeah and you said a bunch of shoulda woulda coulda type shit about other rappers so yeah is that the end of your argument cause you and Clueless nigga left this conversation days ago anyway? IS THERE ANYBODY ELSE WITH BETTER ARGUMENTS OR LISTS OF BETTER SONGS THAT WERE BETTER?
lol bcuz your whole arguement is that jay been rapping the longest and got the most number 1 albums and grammys so that means hes the best. lol what kinda 3rd grade arguement is that? smh. the nerve of some niggaz man smh.
Its not 4/11 either because that would mean those other albums were mostly wack lyrically and thats just not the case cause those other albums contain some of his most powerful songs. So 4/11 dont make sense unless his other albums are WACK, if they are good in anyway ( lyrically, commercially or musical ) then they should be considered as such.
^^^Haha, that’s what I’m talking about. It’s no argument, you put stats up and expect everyone to concur off of that alone. It simply just doesn’t work that way because if it did then Em would be the GOAT, BUT LET YOU TELL IT HE IS “GIMMICKY”. Lol I’m confused
@the realest, are you done or not? Cause my ARGUMENT is that EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THE SONGS I LISTED HAVE QUALITY BARS AND HIS CREDIBLE REASON WHY I HAVE THE OPINION I DO. AGAIN MY ARGUMENT IS LISTED BY SONG TITLES AND BARS NOT A BUNCH OF WOULDA SHOULDA COULDA AND COMPLAINTS AND MONEY. I PULLED UP BARS NIGGA BARS !!!!!
lol dont try to twist my shit for your own fucked up perceptions. thats what you always do. i said he got 4/11 great albums or classics. i didnt say the other SEVEN! were wack, just that they were classic.
now you may ask why is this important, well ima tell you why its important. bcuz biggie only dropped two albums but two classics.
and you said i said a bunch of shoulda wouldas, thats bcuz all you brag about is how many grammys jay got, but if biggie didnt die, he would have had the same amount if not more than jay. and he was 2/2 in the classics department and jay was 4/11. so your numbers argument is null and void and it simply comes down to the lyrics and content, which jay at highest 3rd behind nas and biggie. at HIGHEST. bcuz andre 3k. . . thats it. just andre 3k
you just put up a bunch of songs that i already heard and have in my itunes. i dont see the significance of your action that required you to state that in caps like it was so profound lol. tha shit didnt mean nuffin.
@Clueless nigga, we aint even talking about Em no more that was days ago plus you have already said you dont think Jay is the GOAT so what more about that do you have to add? cause you’ve had days tp produce evidence that shows why Jay isnt the best and you keep popping up with shit that does not take away from the BARS i have already listed so again is that it? Or are you gonna just keep talking but not show any lists of songs or lyrics that are better then those songs?
@the realest COMEONSON we aint talking about Classic albums no more and we aint talking about Big or Andre 3k.
Are you saying only 4/11 of Jays albums are GOOD LYRICALLY cause ya’ll said ya’ll didnt like the fact I brought up stats and consistency so I been talking straight up BARS so how many of Jayz albums have BARS nigga, stop bullshitting? And If somebody has more then list them.
You knew I wasnt talking classics no more because whats the purpose of saying he only got 4 when I said he had 5. Thats a one album difference so that would only have little effect overall. Stop playing stupid if you ganna stay in this conversation. Show me a nigga that has a better discography LYRICALLY ALL ACROSS THE BOARD PERIOD. If you cant then why are we still talking?
“Are you saying only 4/11 of Jays albums are GOOD LYRICALLY cause ya’ll said ya’ll”
^ stop right there. “i said he got 4/11 great albums or classics.” ima start answering your questions with statements i already said, since you cant comprehend correctly and ask the same shit.
“And If somebody has more”
^ lol *sigh smh. your still playing the numbers game, and i told you why numbers in not an accurate way of judgement. just read this again:
“but to say that jay is the greatest simply bcuz he has the most numbers is bonkers. jay never had to fight with labels, jay never had his progress impeded, jay was never shot or killed, jay did what was expected of jay. if pac and biggie didnt die jays success wouldnt be as astonishing. if nas found the proper label or link’d up with a dame or puff or a producer, his numbers would be different. if em made less dumbass songs and more stans , things would be different. if andre dropped solo albums, things would be different.”
jay dropped an album damn near every year bcuz he had no roadblocks. so OF COURSE he would have “MORE” of w.e the fuck it is your looking for. you dont fool me marty. its ironic how you call eminem gimmicky but all your arguements is a big gimmick.
And stop talking about Big, the dude is resting in peace fool his last album came out in 97 its no way he can compete with 16 albums if he aint even alive. Yes his two albums are classic but he would need at least 3 more classics and 12 more albums to compete. He is gone. RIP

Add to this the fact that Nas guest appearances (Verbal Intercourse, Mo Money, Live at The BBQ, just to name a few) shit on Jays Catalog
@the realest, WE ALL GET IT. YOU DONT THINK JAY IS THE GOAT SO ITS LIKE HOW MANY DIFFERENT WAYS ARE YOU GONNA SAY THE SAME SHIT? FOR THE LAST TIME FOR ANYBODY OUT THERE WITH COMMON SENSE. MY WHOLE ARGUMENT IS LISTED BY SONG TITLES AND THE QUALITY OF THOSE BARS ON THOSE SONGS ARE WHY IM SAYING HE IS THE GOAT SO IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE WITH A BETTER LIST IF SO CAN YOU PLEASE LIST THE SONGS? Ok I see Emmet is back with actual evidence. FINALLY
OK I got you I’m going to give you some of the DOPEST shit the GOAT has ever spit:
1.You gone have another drink or you just gone babysit?
2.Thirty-eight revolve like the sun round the Earth.
3.If you shoot my dog ima kill yo cat.
4.When the sun is always out and you never get old (MID LIFE CRISIS)
Bonus ROUND: The “ARGH” adlib he put in RUN THIS TOWN
And Im not gonna waste my time typing niggas rhymes. I shouldnt have to. Go do your own research.
Ok that list is cool, so we got Nas. Now to be honest my opinion still stands because if all these songs are broken down the difference is Jay stays on topic each time. Nas jumps around in content and is sometimes are to understand cause unlike people who will probably jump on the Nas band wagon, I actually know the lyrics to these songs forwards and backwards but still dope list. Now after all this time we have one list from one rapper and like I said earlier I already knew it was possible to use Nas and I respect Nas so I cant complain but the reason my opinion doesnt change is because your saying Nas “shits” on the list of Jay songs and that already lets me know you dont really respect or maybe you dont understand the statements made on the songs I listed because if you play these songs, songs for song you will see that the substance involved on Jayz list is alot of very powerful stuff. So all though I respect Nas to the fullest I cant say that Nas been shitting on Jay because thats not really what those songs prove. The songs prove Nas is dope as hell but not smashing Jay imo AND AGAIN @Emmet I know the lyrics to all these Nas songs so I dont have to do my research. The difference is tha people thats gonna ride your band wagon really dont know the lyrics to most of those Nas songs ( Nazarth Savage? ) COMEONSON so when I say my opinion still stands im doing it from the stand point of already knowing those songs. Just saying
Allegedly Mike Jones has signed to Roc Nation.
Poorest guy to throw up the roc?
No one is trying to sway your opinion kid. Stand on it, practice the crane kick on it for all i care. You just need to let other people have theirs. Nobody is reading your speeches, you get tuned out by the 3rd sentence.
YOO I Thnk Thats A Rumor Though. If He Is Congrats To Him. No Hate. Thats Some Extreme Connnections He Got
co sign Emmet, fuck a number 1 single, Nas shit all over “Hov” on ether, and just simply has made better music, real Hip Hop…I like Jay-Z, but when you have to compare? Nas doesn’t stroke himself like Jay-Z, Jay-Z’s biggest fan is Jay-Z.No one buys music anymore, they download it at places like this… how many people bought it to be number 1? 50?
On top of that, Hov signs people he can either look bad or make him look better..if you don’t fall into one of those categories you are DONE.Ask Beans & State Property..he even stole Young Chris’s flow. (also see Memphis bleek for the look better comment)
If ppl were having this conversations in person they would have walked away from you while youre in mid-sentence.
I doubt you can speak on what other people are reading in regards to your opinion vs mine but as for Illmatic and Reasonable Doubt let me first say that I personally like Illmatic more the RD BUT THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO ALBUMS, A BIG BIG DIFFERENCE. You started your list off with that and let me just remind you that when Nas made Illmatic he was still a struggling 19 year old with limited life experience. When Jay made RD he was 25 with alot of life experience now again that doesnt make RD better but it damn sure makes them alot different. The subject matter covered on RD is some serious serious shit as well as In My LifeTime it aint much battle rapping about rapping going on. Jay was expressing something real and so was Nas but Jay made his subject matter personal really personal. And every album of Jays has very personal and truthful stories about his life that sound extremely real. Another reason why your list really doesnt move my opinion.
And you wanna shit on Nazareth Savage?? You put fuckin’ City Is Mine on ya list!! That shit almost derailed the initial momentum In My Lifetime vol. 1 had from Sunshine.(Another disappointment following Reasonable Doubt)
Every album and song Jay-Z has ever put out is about him moving major weight and being some kind of a cocaine kingpin… who is believing that?
LMAO why beg the c section for a list to matCh up with and at the end of the day your still bias? WTF
Oh c’mon we all know Nas’ catalog is a Roman triumph over JZ’s. Everyone has their own opinion but I think any well researched Hip Hop would agree. And Yes I do know the lyrics of those Nas songs from front to back plus many more.
It’s also foolish to say JZ is the GOAT based on content of his catalog. OC’s catalog reigns supreme over Jays and if you don’t know who OC is then you dont know Hip Hop. Ya I said it.
Purple and Something Foul are at levels Jay’s music couldn’t reach.
“i squeeze nipples like pimples to get the puss, get it?”
I love me some JAYZ nuts in my FACE…love those CAMEL Lips NUcccaaa
Listen to , 2nd childhood… what song does Jay-Z have EVEN CLOSE to that?
@rn506, Jays track record really doesnt indicate that people dont buy his music, thats one because I said he had 16 platinum albums but I honestly lost count of how many platinum status records he’s put up all together. Plus all the shit about him signing other people can be some up like this, he didnt have to give none of them any oppertunity at all but he did and if you listen to Why I Love You on WTT you see that even after helping some people they still betrayed him. @Emmet I didnt shit on Nazarth Savage thats not what my statement meant but there is a big difference between that and City Is Mine because most people reading this can probably remember at least a verse from City is Mine now can they recall the rhymes to a verse from Nazarth Savage? I dont know and that is a big difference between the two, Jay made alot of connections to the people with his music. Most Nas fans cant tell you what the track list is on the back of Nas last three albums without looking at the back of the cd. That doesnt make one or the other better it just makes their connection to the culture different. Now people are gonna be mad and act like their misunderstanding what im saying but really I know you do.
2rn506, Politics as Usual, D evils, Beach Chair, and Pray to name a few. @ people who are just now showing up but didnt not make their own list of songs in the last two days. Its easy to ride someone elses opinion but he at least named songs, the rest of you just cosigning after the fact.
I see yall got the BITCH, RILED UP. HAHA this nigga got his shield and sword and he ready to fight by his man crush side. The nigga went from listing stats, to albums and to records. LOL you boys now he was well prepared to stand by his guy. LOL I have never seen another man, know so much about somebody that could give a rats ass about him or his fans in general. Damn, this is a man crush to infinity, haha. I wonder does he know Shawn is married? Or does he think that because he knows his shit like the back of his hand he can get in between his matrimony. SMH
@troll, what does that have to do with anything? We talking songs and Bars and you come in now just saying nothing? Shut up
^^^^^
LMMFAO! I think the popular opinion here is contrary to yours, Marty. Even “realest” turned on you, and I thought he was as bad as you. Go get some sleep and you can stick up for Jigga the next time 2DB has a post about him. PEEAAAAAAACCCEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Haha I know yo gay ass wrote that shit Marty, haha you the one that is nut hugging Jay, LMAO, look at how many times you have commented on this post. Nigga you are a GROWN MAN WHO IS COUNTING ANOTHER MANS MONEY AND SUCCESS. WHO DOES THAT? OH I FORGOT, FAGGOTS SUCH AS YOURSELF. HAHA GAY ASS BASTARD
Did this dude just use the song “Beach Chair” to argue Jay-Z was better than Nas? If you judge music off who sells the most then you must have went out and bought Justin Bieber, Beyonce & Lady GaGa records. The people Jay-Z signed, helped Jay-Z. they helped make his buzz bigger, some of those dudes had some of the best verses on his tracks.. then he turns from talking about pushing dope to pushing stocks. People don’t care about what stock options he has. No one betrayed him in any way, he turned his back on his people.
I want to hug Marty’s nuts.. HELLO MCFLY!!!!
LMAO, so if I’m a troll then you must be PATROL, the biggest stan alive. Haha damn nigga you put Nicki fans to rest, I just waiting on that avatar of yours to have a baby camel or something. I have never seen no shit like this, Jigga ain’t made you president of the fan club yet? Damn dog, I thought that having so much knowledge and seniority dick riding would at least get you that position. If I were you I would just stop, it’s no need to be a JOCK STRAP AND NOT BE AWARDED FOR IT. DON’T YOU THINK?
Ill just leave it at this, we been talking about this shit for days and after all that we have one list, ONE to compete with Jayz so hey you should be able to understand why I would say JAYZ IS GOAT cause if we got one list after days of debate and technically the people have already decided what group of songs are better because you can get that answer by just looking at results after each one of those songs can out? Then it is what it is. @rn506 NO I said those FOUR examples of songs I listed to your ONE example could compete but again if you take me completely out of the picture. The people has already decided who they feeling more between Nas and Jayz. Now you can say its just numbers but you gotta consider work ethic and every other factor that exist between the two men. Now you guys can say a bunch of stupid shit and talk about a whole bunch of gay shit about nuts and dicks and shit but what you cant do is erase history and how the chips fell. Especially RIGHT NOW cause it looks like Jay aint lost a step. Let me know when you here from Nas again. NO disrespect to Esco but just saying.
Not as bad as you want to suck off Jay for an AUTOGRAPH, GAY ASS NIGGA. HAHA YOU BOUT 30 SOMETHING WAITING FOR YOUR CHANCE TO USE YOUR KNEES TO HAVE YOUR FANTASY COME TRUE. BITCH LOL
Hasn’t lost a step? He made an album with someone else, there were a couple of real verses on there like on “New Day”,besides that? It was an album about cars and watches…. real intelligent, way to motivate your people…taunt them with shit they cant afford, and if they did buy it..would fuk them up. I wonder how many people work in his sweat shops across the world?
WHAT? You mean to tell me you goin leave after you put so much efforts in the war against THE GOAT. Ah Man That’s a Bitch move, but what should I have expect from a bitch named Marty? Aw Well, Master Jigga would be very disappointed that his front line collapsed, but fuck it.
@rn506 What I’ve been saying the whole time.
Wow Marty is truly in denial.
“JAYZ IS GOAT…Jay aint lost a step.”
Any logical, well researched Hip Hop head knows there’s infinitely more talented and complex artists than JAy Z.
okay, we get it. Jay Z has never dropped anything wack, in your opinion. You dont pray to God you pray to Got-ti. Your closet is probably full of Rocawear, and you’re sitting in the middle of it. You dont wake up to the sunrise, you see Jays hands forming the roc symbol in the sky. Theres no Man In The Moon to you. You see a camel. JayZ is both your mother & father. He walked you to school as a child. Now he picks you up from work. You are enthralled with the nigga. Thats the truth that you dont see.
@rn506, That Nas album is a great album but the problem is you really wanna know what the success of BP3 AND WTT has been since that Nas album. Now the fact that Empire State is Jays biggest song and WTT is on Fire right now doesnt automatically make the material better then Nas. The problem is where the hell is Nas been the last three years Jay been grinding. Life Is Good aint come out all fucking year. So when you say how Nas is so much better? What music are you talking about cause if I gotta go all the way back to the Hero single that should tell you something. You wanna know what American Gangster was compared to Nas last two albums? Just saying and I have the upmost respect for Nas but its easy to say somebody is better when they havent even been playing in the game the last three years.
@SMACK, like I said we could all make jokes and say funny shit but the shit im saying with my side of the argument vs yours really aint that funny and most people with common sense who wasnt really siding with either side would look at the two MCs and most likely say Jay got the lead on Nas
lol @ smack, Marty you might make some valid points,but dude…you dug yourself such a grave, it’s like George Bush Jr. trying to get the world to like him. You probably should just go to the ranch and haul logs… LOL LOL
No one says Jay-Z “has the lead” on Nas but you…
@marty You dont seem to understand that though Jay is consistent he can’t compete with Nas lyrically. Who gives a fuck about numbers yo. Did you even listen to the Nigger album. Jay wouldn’t or can’t ever make music like Testify, You Can’t Stop Us Now, Wer’re Not Alone, America etc.
Have you heard Louis Farrakhan (Untitled track) off the Nigger Album? C’mon son.
@ Marty
I aint even take a side nigga, I just read these comments and saw how much of a sword swallower you are for Joe Camel. Nas and Jay Z both have made some wack songs. I dont give a fuck about one more than the other. But if you know anything about Jay, you should know that hes a fake ass nigga. But you all under his nutsack, so you cant see it from there. Just sayin.
Oh My fault, I forgot the Distant Relative album and that was pretty good but still when you say nobody say Jay is in the lead over Nas thats just opinion cause when Life Is Good drops Nas got his work cut out for him because Nas last few albums didnt not out do Jays and thats not just my opinion, thats back up by alot of facts so be mad at me if you want but Nas not dominating hip hop right now or last year or the year before that or the year before that aint my fault.
“Niggas is still hatin
Talking that “NaS done fell off with rhyming,

Nas – Queens Get The Money
Jay who?
Then theres the fact that I just forgot the Distant Relatives album and being that I brought it up looks like you forgot it too ( Damn smh ). Man I really like Nas and if you read one of my comments from earlier you would know who I personally like more between the two rappers but Nas gotta stand on a higher position then Jay in order to beat him and thats because he’s Nas and if he cant do it then good luck on somebody else doing it.
Y’all niggas deal with emotions like bitches
What’s sad is I love you ’cause you’re my brother
You traded your soul for riches
My child, I’ve watched you grow up to be famous
And now I smile like a proud dad, watching his only son that made it
You seem to be only concerned with dissing women
Were you abused as a child, scared to smile, they called you ugly?
Well life is harsh, hug me, don’t reject me
Or make records to disrespect me, blatent or indirectly
In ’88 you was getting chased through your building
Calling my crib and I ain’t even give you my numbers
All I did was gave you a style for you to run with
Smiling in my face, glad to break bread with the god
Wearing Jaz chains, no tecs, no cash, no cars
No jail bars Jigga, no pies, no case
Just Hawaiian shirts, hanging with little Chase
You a fan, a phony, a fake, a pussy, a Stan
I still whip your ass, you thirty-six in a karate class
You Tae-bo hoe, tryna’ work it out, you tryna’ get brolic?
Ask me if I’m tryna’ kick knowledge
Nah, I’m tryna’ kick the shit you need to learn though
That ether, that shit that make your soul burn slow
Is he Dame Diddy, Dame Daddy or Dame Dummy?
Oh, I get it, you Biggie and he’s Puffy
Rockefeller died of AIDS, that was the end of his chapter
And that’s the guy y’all chose to name your company after?
Put it together, I rock hoes, y’all rock fellas
And now y’all try to take my spot, fellas?
Philly’s hot rock fellas, put you in a dry spot, fellas
In a pine box with nine shots from my glock, fellas
Foxy got you hot ’cause you kept your face in her puss
What you think, you getting girls now ’cause of your looks?
Ne-gro please
You no mustache having, with whiskers like a rat
Compared to Beans you wack
And your man stabbed Un and made you take the blame
You ass, went from Jaz to hanging with Kane, to Irv, to Big
And, Eminem murdered you on your own shit
You a dick-riding faggot, you love the attention
Queens niggas run you niggas, ask Russell Simmons
Ha, R-O-C get gunned up and clapped quick
J.J. Evans get gunned up and clapped quick
Your whole damn record label gunned up and clapped quick
Shawn Carter to Jay-Z, damn you on Jaz dick
So little shorty’s getting gunned up and clapped quick
How much of Biggie’s rhymes is gonna come out your fat lips?
Wanted to be on every last one of my classics
Yo pop should apologize, nigga, just ask Kiss
^^So you like Nas more than Jay? Damn nigga you just in a Sausage Fest Twilight Zone ain’t ya? Haha, but you on that “GROWN MAN HIP HOP, I DO IT FOR THE CULTURE SHIT” DAMN SON, STICK WITH A SIDE
I didn’t forget it I just thought if I brought it up you’d argue only solo albums. Again Jay is not ahead of Nas LYRICALLY but then again you say Jay is still better because Nas aint put anything out recently. EXCUSES. RATIONALIZATIONS.
You still stand behind Jay because Reasonable Doubt is “different” than Illmatic lol
Listen to anything off Watch The Throne and compare it to any track off The Nigger Album or Distant Relatives. The truth is evident.
But “ooh no Nas jumps from subject to subject…he’s hard to understand sometimes” lol
@troll, yeah I 100% stand behind my statement that JAYZ IS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME. regardless of how I feel about Nas because if I put my personal feelings aside about the two MCs I clearly see a big difference in comparison overall. Let me give you another reminder since the number SIXTEEN meant nothing to you.
[Jay-Z]
All rhymers with Alzheimers line up please
All mamis with mind freeze please line up please
All bloggers with comments please, I come in peace
Let’s see if we can kill your amnesia by the time I leave
All mamis I hugged before’ll vouch for me
Tell ‘em ’bout the time on your momma’s couch mami
All hustlers who ever, bought a eighth from me
Take this time out, to set the record straight for me
‘Member me? Silver bullet, hard top Ben-t-ley
They think I’m out of shape so I have to jog they memory
Think with indelible ink, I let the pen go
Verses permanently tattooed serve as mementos
Uhh, I’m so mental
My track record speaks for itself, I’m so instrumental
Allow me to rekindle, let’s all “Reminisce” like Mary did
I think I have to send you a reminder, here it is
What the hell have y’all done
… to even have an opinion on what I’ve been doin
What the hell have y’all won?
… Only thing you can identify with is losing
10 #1 albums in a row, who better than me?
Only The Beatles, nobody ahead of me
I crush Elvis and his +Blue Suede Shoes+

Back-to-back, double plat’, I did what you won’t
Men lie, women lie, numbers don’t
Ain’t nothin changed for, me ‘cept the year it is
I think I have to send you a reminder, here it is
Do what I’ve done without cryin’
In the environment in which I did it in without dyin’ my nigga
Then rap like I rap without lyin
Then tie ‘em both together like I am my nigga
Then write sixteens in between runnin sixteen bid’nesses
All the while showin these young punks what the bid’ness is
As if, I’mma let you niggas style on me

And Benz 500′s it all points to OHH!
Now you niggas ‘member me? tell me how could you forget
Back of Johnny’s album cover, red and blue Gucci shit
Ain’t nothin changed but the year it is
I think I have to send you a reminder, here it is
Nas has alot of work to do. We can talk numbers or lyrics and Jay is more then prepared to compete against Nas and his reputation clearly proves that without a shadow of doubt. Done
yeah, that reminder verse aint fuckin wit that tidbit of Queens Get The Money. go to sleep.
Forget it ya’ll. This dude is mono-fixated on how great Jay is. I’ve tried logic and the denial remains but so does the truth and the ones that know it.
Haha damn Nigga, you like a lil school girl following her favorite boy band. What’s more funny is that you could have just went to a lyric cite page and copied it, but like a BITCH WHO IS ALWAYS PREPARED, YOU KNOW THE LYRICS WORD FOR WORD. What a waste of time, GROWN MAN MAN CRUSH. LMAO
But to each his own, so peace to all.
“At times I wanna go back to being penniless.
Ignorance is bliss. I love being innocent”
@Smack and whoever else, You sure Nas wants any problems? How these lyrics?
Takeover
I know you missing Nas the (fame)
But along with celebrity comes about 70 shots to your frame, nigga
You a (lame)
You the fag model for Karl Kani Esco ads
Went from Nasty Nas to Esco’s trash
Had a spark when you started, but now you’re just garbage
Fell from “top 10″ to “not mentioned at all”
To your bodyguard’s “Oochie Wally”‘s verse better than yours
Matter of fact, you had the worst flow on the whole fucking song
But I know: the sun don’t shine, then son don’t shine
That’s why your (lame) career’s come to an end
There’s only so long fake thugs can pretend
Nigga, you ain’t live it
You witnessed it from your folks’ pad
You scribbled it in your notepad and created your life
I showed you your first Tec, on tour with Large Professor
Then I heard your album about your Tec on the dresser
So yeah, I sampled your voice
You was using it wrong
You made it a hot line
I made it a hot song
And you ain’t get a coin, nigga
You was getting fucked then
I know who I paid, God – Serchlite publishing
Use your (brain):
You said you’ve been in this 10, I’ve been in it 5 – smarten up, Nas
4 albums in 10 years, nigga? I could divide
That’s one every…let’s say 2
2 of them shits was doo
1 was “nah”, the other was “Illmatic”
That’s a one-hot-album-every-10-year average
And that’s so (lame)
Nigga, switch up your flow
Your shit is garbage
What you trying to kick, knowledge?
You niggas gonna learn to respect the king
Don’t be the next contestant on that Summer Jam screen
Because you-know-who did you-know-what with you-know-who
But let’s keep that between me and you (for now)
Got Myself a Gun
Brooklyn stand up, I got myself a gun
But really I dont need the heat
Your heart pump project Kool-Aid, you’re sweet
I don’t gotta two-way you gays
This is not beef, this is rap homie
I don’t have a scratch on me
You feel Jay soft, rip Jay off
Damn I’m only worth over a hundred million
Look, I got beef with like a hundred children
Niggas with pink suits tryna get cute
You a little outta line homie, don’t let the nine homie
Put you out your mind homie, just rhyme homie
Kick your little lies I kick my real facts
Like you sneaking out the back of the Source Soundlab
We wasn’t chasing you, we had a taping too
We came through to do our one-two thing
It wasn’t a Rocafella come-through thing
Cos if it was on like that, I would come through Queens
With Queens niggas, you know how I do
Look, I got more shooters in Queensbridge than you
Niggas’ll tie you up on the Colosseum roof
And open beer bottles off the boy chipped tooth
Look here
Super ugly
Listen, I’m the J, the A, to the fuck this broad
This nigga never sold Aspirin, how you Escobar?
Had to buy your chain back last time you got robbed
The nerve of this coward nigga, oh my God
And I don’t rap rumors or innuendoes
I bring it to you live, lift up your window
Let the public peek in, see your dirty laundry
Y’all dont want me to continue
Me and the boy AI got more in common than just balling and rhyming
Get it? More in Carmen
I came in your Bentley backseat, skeeted in your Jeep
Left condoms on your baby seat
Here nigga, the gloves is off, the love is done
It’s whatever, whenever, however nigga – one
And since you infatuated with saying that gay shit
Yes you was kissing my dick when you was kissing that bitch
Nasty shit, you thought I was boning Ranette
You calling Carm’ a hundred times, I was boning her neck
You got a baby by the broad, you can’t disown her yet
When does your lies end, when does the truth begin
When does reality set in or does it not matter
Gotta hurt I’m your baby mama’s favorite rapper
And ask your current girl, she know what’s up
Holla at a real nigga, Jigga
Blueprint 2
Can’t y’all, see that he’s fake, the rap version of TD jakes
Prophesizing on your CDs and tapes
Won’t break you a crumb of the little bit that he makes
And this is with whom you want to place your faith?
I put dollars on mine, ask Columbine
When the Twin Towers dropped, I was the first in line
Donating proceeds off every ticket sold
When I was out on the road, that’s how you judge Hov, no?
Ain’t I supposed to be absorbed myself?
Every time there’s a tragedy, I’m the first one to help
They call me this misogynist, but they don’t call me the dude
To take his dollars to give gifts at the projects
These dudes is all politics, depositing checks
They put in they pocket, all you get in return is a lot of lip
And y’all buy the shit, caught up in the hype
Cause the nigga wear a coofie, it don’t mean that he bright
Cause you don’t understand him, it don’t mean that he nice
It just means you don’t understand all the bullshit that he write
Is it “Oochie Wally Wally” or is it “One Mic”?
Is it “Black Girl Lost” or shorty owe you for ice?
I’ve been real all my life, they confuse it with conceit
Since I will not lose, they try to help him cheat
But I will not lose, for even in defeat
There’s a valuable lesson learned, so it evens up for me
When the grass is cut, the snakes will show
I gotta thank the little homie Nas for that though
Saving me the hassle of speaking to half of these assholes
And I’mma let karma catch up to Jaz-O, whoa
I’m back before you had a chance to miss me
My mama can’t save you this time, niggas is history
Who you know flow vicious as me?
Yet so religiously, that’s why they call me Hov
I get the spoils cause the victor is me (me, nigga)
You’re an actor, you’re not who you’re depicted to be
The street dreamin, all y’all niggas living through me
I gave you life when niggas was forgetting you emcee
I’m a legend, you should take a picture with me
You should be happy to be in my presence, I should charge you a fee
I’m Big Dog, Glenn Rob, listen God you a flea
And the little homey Jungle is a garden to me
What’s the problem B? You not as hard as me
Nigga hard as we, nigga R O C, nigga
That’s why they follow me, they feel my pain and my agony, nigga
I won’t rest till you on one knee
You want war then it’s war’s gonna be, nigga
Until you on one knee, you want war then it’s war’s gonna be, nigga
I think you better ask yourself if Nas really won this battle and if going for one more would be a good idea?
Take my dick out your mouth, Marty.
Maybe you need a refresher course. Nas destroyed Jay in that battle. It was 10 years ago. And your posting a bitter JayZ whining about losing. Ether, Everybodys Crazy, Last Real Nigga Alive.
Lights Out.
^^^ Trolls I know they mad at that last history lesson but you asked for it so it aint my fault. Its all good maybe Jay a sign Nas to the Roc and help him out now the beef is over. Lmao
Jayz – “you kick your little lies, I kick my real facts…” Respect to Nas still though but I know those lyrics gotta hurt.
Or maybe you’ll find a job and a women and stop patroling 2dopeboyz.
This shit started days ago and niggas is laughing at you. we get it fruity. you love you some Jay Z.

Smh @ Seriously, Just so people dont take my argument the wrong way the last thing I will say is that I have the highest respect for Nas as being one of the Goats but I just feel some of verses make alot more sense then others.

Shut the fuck up nigga, you about a half of decade short to say shit in this post especially about those sales.

“How is Jay-Z not the best” -Pharaoh Monche
smh. marty. you REALLY used “reminder” and “takeover” against some nas? takeover wasnt even as hard as the public make it seem, and reminder, that shit was on BP3. c’mon now.
ludacris huh? tied for 2nd all time in #1 singles for a hip hop artist huh? i seem to remember some drake/big sean/ymcmb stans talking about him like his time was up a couple of weeks ago. luda is a motherfucking LEGEND.
@Clueless nigga ( Pauly ), Linkin Park ( Mike Shinoda is a rapper, No scratch that Mike is an MC ) because LP is described and categorized as alternative rock/rap. Hybrid Theory sold 24 million so technically another white rapper already beat Em.
@the realest, yes I used Takeover ( the first blow from one of the greatest battles in hip hop history ) and Yes I used Reminder from BP3 ( the album that contains Jays biggest song ever ).
@Fiero, never say such a stupid thing again. Ok Im done for real, have a nice day.
Pauly? I’m not him, that’s kinda gay for you to be thinking of another man like that. I kinda of brushed it off with your dick riding of Jay but to think of me as somebody else hiding behind a screen name is just weird. But anyway, aside from your quest to find another man, haha, I could give a shit about Linkin Park. The only reason you used him was because he and the group made an album, excuse me, ONE ALBUM with dude. Since you keep on wanting to emphasize on the number of albums, that does not fuck with EM AND HIS TWO, NOT ONE BUT TWO DIAMOND ALBUMS. Nigga Jay is good but he will never, EVER, EVER, EVER HAVE TWO DIAMOND ALBUMS. YOU KEEP POINTING OUT HIS LONGEVITY AND IF HE AIN’T GET IT BY NOW IT’S NOT GOING DOWN. HAHA
AND FOR THE LAST TIME, ARE YOU DONE? DAMN YOU COME BACK EVERY HOUR ON THE HOUR
Jigga stole all his tales from Dame and then backed him into a corner. Dame the mind, Jay pushed nicks. That’s why he cut him off. If dude ever says he is the basis for Jay’s stories everyone will just think Dame is bitter, cause he is. 48 Laws of Power. Way to stay on The Throne. Not a businessman, a business, man. Illumination
Mike Shinoda A RAPPER sold more with one album then both Ems diamond albums and has more then doubled Ems platinum status all together.
Em will NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER MAKE SIXTEEN ALBUMS LET ALONE MAKE SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUMS BECAUSE HE FELL OFF A LONG TIME AGO. Relapse GARBAGE, Recovery GARBAGE and BME Garbage in the eyes of true hip hop heads.
@ Alister Crowley, Jay was in the drug game before he ever met Dame and DJ Premier has cosigned Jayz drug tales by saying he has personally seen Jay out in Virginia putting in work before they did music together. Premier has also cosigned Bigs presence in the streets btw. Dame has also cosigned Jays drug tales ( before they met ) as well has biggs and Jay has also said he was still active in the drug game even during the time is first album was out and several people in the industry have cosigned that.
@marty
you should listen to @alistercrowley cause I know Jay does lol
“Do what thou wilt.” Why the fuck does Jay rock a shirt with a quote from one of the most sinister individuals to ever walk the earth?
Correction Linkin Park has not more the doubled Ems platinum status records all together. Hybrid Theory has more the doubled each ONE of Ems diamond albums and @Cali Grown at the end of the day who really cares? Lets just say Jay is a above average rapper and just leave it at that cause you people wouldnt be happy if Jesus Christ cosigned Jay at this point.
Ya who cares if Jay supports the views of a satanist. one who’s quoted saying
“A white male child of perfect innocence and intelligence makes the most suitable victim.”
But who cares “Do what thou wilt”
Ladies and gentlemen, we have before us a prime example of a sheep. It all makes sense now.
Did Jay wake up that morning and say to himself “Yo I’ma rock that fresh tee with the Alister Crowley quote”
WTF!
Haha, go and get a group that is not HIP HOP as you say. You are a joke dude, you the main nigga on here talking about hip hop and you go get a musician in Linkin Park, then you come back and get the group? Damn nigga, but anyway AT THE END OF THE DAY, EM GOT MORE THAN JAY, AND IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT YOU SAY. Haha, that’s HIP HOP for you. 2 DIAMOND ALBUMS VS. NONE. And by the way, when it’s all said and done Em will have more platinum records than dude because, like you said, his fans are “people who don’t listen to hip hop and only buys and owns Em records” so he’ll be good while you niggas stay salty. So at the end of the day he wins.
CaliGrown I see you! Just the way they see us all. Let the sheeple sleep. We awake. Check out my blog through my name brother. Alternative Hip-Hop and Films for now, but we have a whole conspiracy aspect coming to the site. First topic will be “Decoding The Throne.”
what that nigga jay say on threat tho? “you aint gotta go to church to get to know yo god” lmao that shit was too hard. some niggaz just nerdy tho.
oh btw, nas still trumps jay overall, marty.

Again take away all the hype, numbers, money and fame and go song for song? At the end of the day Jays material BAR for BAR will still be going strong long after Ems material thus far. Jay has done more then 500 songs including features in his career and its not just the fact he’s done so much, its the level if QUALITY lyrics, concepts and consistency involved. You looking at the GOAT people.
Oh yeah and he still has 8 more years to go on contract with Live Nation so you figure it out cause if he comes up with 8 more albums…. You already know where im going with this. LEGENDARY STATUS.
@marty mcfly
Was wondering why this post kept getting comments. To add fuel to the flame, Nas > Jay Z. By going to record sales and w/e already shows that is Jay Z’s only ‘strength.’ And if we went strictly by record sales, Mc Hammer would be one of the greatest rappers of all time. So poof, there goes that argument. Lyrically without a doubt, Nas is on a higher echelon. It was evident since the beginning – having arguably what is considered as one of the greatest hip hop album of all time. And it was his debut album. Common cites Nas as one of the…wait sorry my mistake- Common cites Nas AS the best rapper alive. Why am I talking about Common? Well 1) He’s revelent 2) He’s considered as one of the greatest MCs in the game and 3)Lyrically he’s better than Jay Z.
“Truthfully I wanna rhyme like Common Sense / (But i did five Mil) / I ain’t been rhymin like Common since — When your sense got that much in common / And you been hustlin since / Your inception / Fuck perception / Go with what makes sense / Since / I know what I’m up against / We as rappers must decide what’s most impor-tant”
Making the claim that Jay is better than Em is okay. But making the claim that Jay is better than Nas is blasphemy.

5 CLASSIC ALBUMS – most rappers have NO classic albums
16 years of consistency – most rappers have less then 4 years of steady consistency
Rocafella Records is going down in rap history – most rappers cant say the same cause they have never had a successful label.
LYRICALLY Jay is one of the greatest – Most rappers are not
Commercially Jay has had the most success while remaining true to the integrity of the art. NO JOKES, NO GIMMICKS, NO LYING – Most rappers can not say the same
SIXTEEN PLATINUM ALBUMS – most rappers are lucky if the have one platinum album
Most impactful and memorable songs – most of all of hip hop fans can probably quote more then ten Jayz songs without missing a single word from his verses. Big Pimpin, Hard Knock Life, Can I Get A, H to the IZZO, Aint No Nigga, 99 Problems, Empire State, Run This Town, Dirt Off My Shoulder, the verses from Umbrella and Crazy In Love, 22twos, Jigga What, PSA, Encore, etc etc etc..
Four Greatest Hits albums – Most rappers have none
Multiple headline Tours – most rappers have none
Multiple business ventures – most rappers have none
2 successful album trilogies: HKL vol 1 to 3 and BP1 to 3 – most rappers have none.
Four platinum collab albums – most rappers have none
40 plus hit records – most rappers have less then ten
23 ALBUMS TOTAL counting collabs and greatest hits and two soundtracks and 1 live album – most rappers dont have double digits in this category. Especially not with this kind of lyrical ability and consistent product performance.
ALL OTHER SOLO RAPPERS LOSE AGAINST THESE STATS IN EVERY CATEGORY EXCEPT TWO. EM IS THE ONLY ONE WITH 2 DIAMOND ALBUMS AND MORE SALES OVERALL BUT HE LOSES AGAINST JAY IN EVERY OTHER CATEGORY. – most rappers dont see this level
Yes Em also has just a few more awards ( a very little few ) but that is the least of most fans concern – fuck awards
Jay put multiple artists on – Kanye, Beanie, Freeway, Amil, Ja Rule, J Cole, Memphis Bleek, Young Guns, Jay Electronica ( soon the truth is coming from him ), Willow Smith, Rihanna, etc etc
Jay made more money then your favorite rapper but you knew that.
Jayz is presently more active right now as we speak then your favorite rapper
Lastly – Musical Integrity and Lyrical Ability, over the course of sixteen years Jayz has proven time and time again that he is a better lyricist then your favorite rapper. He dont bullshit with fake gimmicks and he dont lie and make up bullshit and he has consistently out rhymed the competition. The content he uses his his life, your favorite rapper lies and just rhymes about a bunch of shit that adds up to meaningless fuckshit. Jayz does not. Now Common, Nas, Mos Def, Raekwon, AZ, Kanye and your favorite lyrical miracles are all great and respected MCs however they cannot say all the same things that I just said and at some point lyrical ability has to match hard work ethic or somebody else will be considered greater. There is no nicer way for me to put it.
Concept material: American Gangster the album, D evils, A Week Ago, Coming of Age, Dope Man, Meet The Parents, A Ballad For A Fallen Soldier, Minority Report, Lucifer, New Day, Friend or Foe 1&2, Coming Of Age 1&2, 1900 hustler, I Know, etc etc etc
These songs are some of the main reasons why I dont really know if Nas is better lyrically then Jay. Now add the battle raps I posted earlier and realize that Jay was not joking when he mad those raps. Nas had a comedic flow on Ether talking about hes gay and does karate and that he’ll win in a fight. Jay was spitting alot of real shit and he was not joking at all cause by the time Blueprint 2 came out, he sounded like he was really thinking about killing this nigga, Nas was not being that aggressive.
I mite be hurting your feelings or making people mad or whatever but honestly speaking if you add up everything on Jays side of the argument. Its just too much weight for any Mc to match. Im sorry ya’ll but the truth is just the truth. OVERALL in this whole debate I have given you all 50 plus solid reasons why
JAYZ IS THE GREATEST MC OF ALL TIME.
Respect to 2DBZ and everybody elses opinion and now that this is over and done with I have no more comments about this subject but its ok to give someone the crown especially if that person has put in the work. Good Nite
“…But making the claim that Jay is better than Nas is blasphemy.”
Soft and Wet said this on December 15th, 2011 at 1:17 am
^
To bad you’ve convinced no one else but your self. If some one were to put the same amount of effort and info into a post favoring Nas it would be a mudslide victory for him but we as logical Hip Hop heads already know what you seem to be oblivious to. So there’s no reason to argue with a wall.
The truth still remains.
“I have no more comments about this subject but its ok to give someone the crown especially if that person has put in the work. Good Nite”
YOU PROMISE
Haha, damn that nigga, I’m sure would really love to have you as PRESIDENT of his fan club.
You three gotta be stupid or something. Nas would have to win in MOST categories to be greater then Jayz and thats his downfall. You cant say Nas has equal or greater lyrical ability but doesnt have to compete in any other area of being an artist because thats not enough. You have to have alot more then lyrical ability to be the greatest.
“You have to have alot more then lyrical ability to be the greatest.”
^^^AINT THAT ABOUT A BITCH, YOU FINALLY GET IT.Exactly, so sales is what Jay lacks in compared to others, (Em) so how can he be consider the G.O.A.T with just his lyrics?
Also Nas does have equal and me personally better lyrics than the living lavish, poppin bottles, but I’m still hood, suppose to be G.O.A.T your keep bringing up.
Because Em has more sales and has 2 diamond albums is just two things that he has done better but there is 20 plus other areas the Jayz has done better then Em in terms of being an all around greater artist. Like how that hard to understand? We aint talking just 2 diamond albums.
nas >>>>>>> Jay z
Em has to have more then 5 Classics
Em would have to dominate more then 8 years straight hands down including this year and the last 4 years
Em would have to lyrically out rap Jayz for most of the last 16 years
Em has to complete and deliver more albums
Em has to be more consistent over then course of 15 plus years
He would have to put up more radio songs and culturally impactful songs for more years in a row then Jayz
He would have to conceptually create more then 12 albums better then Jayz
He would have to have songs that were bigger then Jays for most of ten years outta Jays career.
I could go on and on cause you cant just say Em or Nas is better but then when we look back 16 years they havent done that for more then ten years on a consistent basis. Jay has done the work on a greater level over the course of that period of time in MOST categories.
No man, I been agreeing with damn near all of your statements, what I was trying to point out is Jay is not the top man in all areas, so how can he be the greatest to ever do it. He is great and so are the others we have been mentioning, haha, why do you want to put that big ass label on dude? I just don’t get it. At best he is in the top ten but the best to ever do it is just crazy. Then I’m more confused because you say you could get just as much Nas material that could void out Jay shit. But then when lyrics are brought up you go back to the 16 albums. What? I’m confused dude
Well I guess that’s were we differ. I base great emcees by their lyrical capabilities. I could give a flying fuck about sales and all that since mainstream success doesn’t constitute being a true master of the ceremony.
Hip Hop, unless you’ve forgotten, is about words (lyrics) as opposed to actions (records sold). Normally actions speak louder than words but Hip Hop is about displaying your inner most on the outside. Lyrics is what makes a great artist if you ask me especially when there’s no room for creativity in these major record labels and the radio. I don’t blame them though, supply and demand. The shit you hear on the radio is what the people or the masses want.
Fuck #1 singles, platinum/diamond albums, awards, endorsements and all that. I said it in a previous post and I’ll say it again, financially Jay is greater but LYRICALLY (artistically) Nas is the victor.
Both Nas and Ems last four albums have to beat in WTT, BP3, American Gangster and Kingdom Come in most categories including lyrical and musical ability because the last 5 years is the most up to date material that even makes them comparable. Then they have to have better all around classic material then RD, In My LifeTime, BP1, and The Black album and then they have to double their amount of commercial material just to evenly compete artistically. Sales is one category and skills is one category, there are others because we talking over more then a decade and a half of songs to compare. Then they also have to be way more consistent so COMEONSON. Jayz has done too much so you would have to completely leave him in the dust in more then half of all the categories he competes in and thats not gonna happen.
@Cali Grown, thats fine and I get but if lyrics was everything, Canibus and Immortal Technique would be on top of hip hop culture because you dont need dope beats to be lyrical and if sales was everything then people would only make music for radio and there would be no other relevant form of hip hop and skills would mean nothing and Drake and Wayne would have took over everything this year. Being the greatest is a mixture of doing most things in terms of being an artist at a high level consistently with the most impact each time.
Man, I’m at a lost for words, let me put it this way:
Best Emcee/Lyricist: Nasir
Greatesr Success in terms of sales: Marshall
Best Catalog/Longevity: Shawn
Is that better?
Greatest
No because Jay played the game at a high level in all three of those categories. Nas is not one of the greatest in sales and Em is not one of the greatest in hip hop album catalogs but Jay is one of the greatest in all three of those categories. We aint do all this back n forth shit just to settle on three winners so after all this bullshit, there can only be one…
Dude, that shit right there was fact in terms of those labels, where did I fuck up? It seems right to me
There are many artists with better album catalogs then Em, ( Common, Busta Rhymes, LL Cool J, Ice Cube, Ghostface, T.I, Kanye etc ) Its just Em sold more
There are rappers with better sales overall then Nas, its just Nas was more lyrical.
Jayz however competes in all three arenas on a high level with any rapper.
There can only be one…
@clueless
I think you’ve summed it up.
@marty
Understood. After all, “great” is a subjective term. I’m inclined to stick with my own opinion though. We’ll agree to disagree as the saying goes.
Good, healthy argument, gentlemen. Now I shall spark a blunt and partake in some O.C. – Word…Life ear training.
…When the Jay-Z dickriders attack…
@Cali
I tried man, that’s the best I can do
And I can’t be mad at you for that.
@MissyMcFly
So after 6 days of arguing, checkin another mans bank to back up his status and sticking up for him, to support your OPINION….In other words you put so much stock into your argument based on sales, yet what this man eats dont make you shit. I guess its just Lifestyles of the Unemployed and Jaded.
Simply put, Everyones criteria for the GOAT is different. There are no rules for any individual to judge by.
man nas is just the better rapper. period. even old nas. old jay been off and on post american gangster with his best verse probley being on drakes album.. nas been most consistent lyrically. jay got the numbers bcuz of kanye and dame. to be real.
“Yeah, ya’ll know I gets it on, sip on Dom

Wow…I thought that you dudes would realize by now, MARTY MCFLY IS A BITCH MADE FOOL WHO’S BIAS EXPOSES HIS MUSICAL IGNORANCE.
Disengage.
^^says the dude who thought a Biggie sample was Pun
^^^ Thanks but I got this…
@The Truth, NO this aint about Jays money its about his skills and consistency and career excellence overall
@the realest, NO
@Pauly D . your just an all around dumbass who jumps on other peoples opinion cause you can barely ever form one of your own cause your a idiot. Whats really bias is not wanting to admit that for every one hip hop fan that buys music that is not white, there are ten hip hop fans that buy hip hop that are white and that is really the key to why Em is considered one of the best even though the last seven years of his career shows he’s not.
NOW 50 cent has 2 diamond albums so his he the Goat? NO
EVERYTHING THAT Common, Scarface, Gangstarr, AZ, Black Thought, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Ice Cube, Tupac, Method Man, Redman, Atmosphere, Jayz, Nas, T.I, Lupe Fiasco, Slick Rick, LL Cool J, Krs one, even Xzibit, Ras Kass and even crack headed DMX HAS EVER RECORDED THEIR ENTIRE CAREERS HAVE ALL BEEN MORE LYRICAL THEN EMS WORK AND THEY ALL HAVE PRODUCED BETTER ALBUMS OVERALL SO ARE THEY ALL THE GREATEST TOO?
Now for Nas
Illmatic (1994) – Nas wins because there is no Jayz yet at this time
It Was Written (1996) Reasonable Doubt came out and Jayz lyrically could compete but Nas goes 3x platinum.
1997 – In My Lifetime, Nas did not compete as a solo artist, he was on the Firm album and thats 4 MCs vs 1 with Dr Dre so its not an even playing field and Jay still out sells and out performance this album.
1998 HKL2 ( sold 5 million), Nas did not compete.
I Am… (1999) Jay drops HKL3 – Both albums sell three million, both have big singles and both have artistic integrity.
Nastradamus (1999) Nas also drops this album in November 1999 and it goes platinum BUT Jay ghostwrites Still Dre for chronic 2001 and sets the stage for Dr Dre first single and for the most part the world is still caught up in Jays HKL2 & HKL3 because this is the hottest point of Jays career at this point.
2000 – Jay drops The Dynasty album and it goes platinum and also solidifies The Roc, Nas did not compete.
Stillmatic (2001) – album goes platinum, Blueprint 1 goes 3x platinum.
God’s Son (2002) – album goes platinum, BP2 goes 5x platinum and Lost Tapes flops hard but still a good album, BP2 was a double CD so Jay also made two albums and he made Best of Both Worlds with R Kelly the album goes platinum so thats 3 albums.
2003 – The Black Album goes 3x platinum and is now considered a hip hop classic, Nas did not compete.
Street’s Disciple (2004) – great platinum album, Unfinished Business from Jay and R kelly – not a great album but a platinum one and Jay also does Coillison Course with linkin Park now if your a fan of this kind of dynamic you should understand why by this time next year the cd will probably be DIAMOND
Hip Hop Is Dead (2006) goes Gold and Kingdom Come goes platinum, both have big songs and both have artistic integrity
2007 – Jayz drops American Gangster a platinum selling story concept album, Nas does not compete.
Untitled (2008) – album goes Gold but is very slept on and I think its because the album was originally called Nigger and thats a tough word to promote commercially.
2009 – Jay drops BP3 and the album goes platinum and produces Jays biggest record of all time. Empire State
2010 – Nas drops Distant Relatives – it goes Gold, Jay is touring most of this year.
2011 – Watch The Throne is a platinum success
Now after all that which artist between Nas and Jayz looks like their gaining momentum? Which artists looks like they’ve lost some? Ok then. You cant play the lyrical card either because on each one of those Jay albums he maintains a level of lyrical ability. So again Jayz is the GOAT because of what history has shown you over the course of 16 years.
Oooooh, Jay! you make me wanna….you just make me wanna….ARGH!!!
…and boom goes the dynamite
We got a troll in the building now I guess and thats because when an argument gets tough, which ever side is losing always tries to redirect the attention to something comedic or something disrespectful to the person who is expressing the winning argument and thats because the truth hurts and instead of just excepting it, trolls and other people in this conversation just say anything or try to take the attention off the main topic and put it on the messenger or just say things without any facts or evidence but again thats cause the truth hurts, I know but that aint my fault.
lmao @ boom goes the dynamite.
but jay looses in lyrical ability. over the course of 16 years. its safe to say that nas hasnt put out a wack verse yet. if so, not recently. MOST of jay recent shit is wack for the execption of his light up verse, few WTT records, his maybachs, the sade, diamond, and so appauld. i could damn near count every hard verse from jay recently. while nas has never lost a step. and thats why he the goat. clearly.
@the realest, you’ve been saying that so we get it. You think jay makes some wack verses. So What? Look at that mountain of evidence ive brought to the table. So some wack verses is nothing but a scratch on his overall performance as an artist. If you think Empire State or Thank You or A Star Is Born or So Ambitious or Forever Young or DOA or Welcome to Jungle or New Day or Otis or Murder To Excellence or Made in America is just an exhibition in wack verses. Your still just throwing pebbles at bulletproof glass because what verse did Nas impact the game with this year or last year or the year before or the year before? EXACTLY. Some complaint about verses changes nothing and it damn sure doesnt make Nas the greatest cause Jay had a bad verse on Lift Off or some shit.
Everybody in here can’t be wrong. I’m just saying, I gave dude the benefit of the doubt but at the end of the day, it’s always a nigga out there that is better than who you think is the best. And I was thinking that since people started labeling him the GOAT, that was when he really started to switch over to mainstream with the WATCH AND PRIVATE PLANE TALK. My point is, if you want the best from somebody, you got to make them earn the shit, even when they already got it. Once a nigga ain’t hungry for this shit no more you can tell it through their music and he is a PRIME EXAMPLE.
[Verse Two - Jay-Z]
In this manila envelope the results of my insanity
Quack said I crossed the line between real life and fantasy
Can it be the same one on covers with Warren Buffet
Was ducking the undercovers, was warring with motherfuckers?
Went from warring to Warren, undercovers to covers
If you believe in that sort of luck your screws need adjusting
In the world of no justice and black ladies on the back of buses
I’m the immaculate conception of rappers-slash-hustlers
My God it’s so hard to conceive
But it all falls perfect I’m like autumn is to trees
The doc interrupted, he scribbled a prescription for some Prozac
He said: “take that for your mustard, boy
You must be off your rocker
If you think you’ll make it off the strip before they ‘Pac ya
Nigga you gotta be psychotic
Or mixing something potent with your vodka
It takes a lot to shock us
But you being so prosperous is preposterous
How could this nappy headed boy from out the projects
Be the apple of America’s obsession?
You totally disconnected with reality
Don’t believe in dreams
Since when did black men become kings”
@the realest, some wack verse still doesnt remove the fact he still spits when he want to
@Clueless nigga, if somebody out there is spiting better then Jayz how does that hurt Jayz? If somebody raps better then Jayz does that take away his performance as an artist thus far? No does that erase his work thus far? NO
Jayz is like the new 50cent!
“if somebody out there is spiting better then Jayz how does that hurt Jayz? ”
It doesn’t hurt him, but if he is “GOAT” you gotta step up and make something to outshine that nigga. If I’m the greatest at something, no nigga, I MEAN NO NIGGA, is going to have any doubts about it. That can’t be said in this case, i.e. the damn near 350 comments in here.
“If somebody raps better then Jayz does that take away his performance as an artist thus far?”
No it does not, but how can he be GOAT if their is somebody else putting in work and you the GOAT are you going to A: keep grinding to make sure you hold your position. Or B: (WHAT HE HAS DONE) Well shit, niggas say I’m the GOAT anyway who gives a fuck about from now on my past work speaks for me back then, the present and the future.
Seeing how 50cent is the GREATEST OF ALL TIME
50 dont rap like that homie. Lol how much substance is behind these words? Let alone some shit like Murder To Excellence. COMEONSON
@Clueless nigga, the only somebody were talking about is Nas, We have been subtracted every other artist out of the conversation. So there is nobody else cause were talking Nas and even if we are talking somebody else. WHERE THE FUCK HAS THAT PERSON BEEN THIS YEAR OR IN THIS WHOLE CONVERSATION. THE ONLY RAPPER LEFT AFTER DAYS OF THIS ARGUMENT IS NAS.
Dont wait til the last minute to bring in another rapper after you’ve had days to mention them cause even if you do they have to have PROOF that they have out rapped Jay for more then half of his sixteen year career and also show PROOF of that in multiple categories and thats not gonna happen.
lol his wack verses reflects that hes not the goat. thats like a nigga saying “oh, he can play when he wanna play.” while the superstar stay ballin every single time he steps to the court.
your mountain of evidenece is identical if not inferior to nas’ catalog, so then it comes down to LYRICAL consistency. and nas never lost a step while jay is hit and miss or “play when he wanna play.” and that is why sir nas is the goat. clearly.
@the realest, what or how many verses from Nas has matched the level of impact, in connection with the people in the last 4 years? Dont you know Jay has verses in the double digits that people say are dope in the just the last two years? How many niggas where you from ride by playing the Nigger album? If you ask then about BP3, you think they know about a few songs by now? You wanna talk consistency when ive presented facts and concrete evidence that Jay has been more consistent across the board especially in the area of lyrics.
@Clueless nigga, you said Jayz raps about watches and Maybachs but even when he does rap about watches he does it with skills.
[Verse 3: Jay-Z]
I got a Hublot, I call it Tebow, I strap that bitch with a gator band
Y’all niggas ball half-time, y’all niggas like the Gator band
Y’all niggas need a time out, who got these niggas all wound up?
Cocksucker, I’m 730, y’all know where y’all niggas gonna wind up?
No more Mr. Nice Guy, hello Mr. Nice Watch
Only but a matter of time ‘fore I hit yall niggas with a nice shot
Y’all niggas better not call the law, get no blood on my Audemar
Meaning y’all better not waste my time when y’all ready I take you all to war
Meanwhile I’m just chopping off doors
Put the front on the back, cause I’m back and forth
Put the front on the back of the ‘bach like a boss
So I’m fronting on niggas when I’m backing off
What up, Cole? It’s your time, let’s these niggas know
Adjust your Rollie on these motherfucking hoes, whenever you ready, go
@the people have decided that Nas has lost a step lyrically compared to Jayz. Now if we were talking a five year career thats one thing, ten year career thats one thing but I showed you eighteen years of Nas catalog so if he so much better lyrically then Jay we would all clearly see that by the response of the people to his albums cause Nas is not underground he’s one of the most mainstream artists in music. Every single hip hop fan knows who Nas is so why is Jay in the position he is in and not Nas when Nas started two years earlier. HOW MANY EXCUSES ARE YOU GONNA MAKE FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS OF HIM NOT MAKING BIG RECORDS?
@the realest, you wanna talk verses? here you go

Sade – The Moon and The Sky Remix ft. Jayz
I know we could have had it all
I wasn’t ready to go steady no not at all
Smoke and mirrors clouded my vision we hit a wall
Couldn’t see the moon and the sky behind the fog
Pregnant pause
Damn your baby tall, what you been up to
I don’t blame you my doll
Yeah, we kinda stalled
As God as my witness, timin’ was my mistress
I guess it’s in the stars for me to love you from a distance
Uh, our ship sailed, uh, the wind blows
The door’s always open but our window is closed
You always thought “What if?”
But that’ll just drive you crazy baby, girl interrupted
Thinkin’ ’bout what wasn’t
Thinkin’ ’bout what was it?
Was it somethin’ I done?
Somethin’ I could do better although nothin’ could be done
Sometimes you get what you need
Now what you think you want?
So baby no moon and sky, got a beautiful sun
Why I Love You
Picture if you will that the throne’s burning
Rome’s burning and I’m sitting in the corner all alone burning
Why does it always end up like this?
Something that we don’t determine
Same people that I fought for, that I fight for, that I ride for
That I live for, that I die for be the reason that these niggas is alive for
And they want me dead but I’m so sorry but I just can’t die for you
But I can make ‘em put their hands in the sky for you
We waiting for the fireworks like July 4th
Get fly more, get high more, cry boy, why for?
When the grief is over, beef is over
I’ll be fly when Easter’s over
I tried to teach niggas how to be kings
And all they ever wanted to be was soldiers
So the love is gone ’til blood is drawn
So we no longer wear the same uniform
Fuck you squares, the circle got smaller
The castle got bigger, the walls got taller
And truth be told after all that said
Niggas still got love for you
Showed love to you niggas, you ripped out my heart
And you stepped on it, I picked up the pieces before you swept on it
Goddamn this shit leaves a mess, don’t it?
Shit feelin’ like death, don’t it?
Charge it to the game, whatever’s left on it
I spent about a minute, maybe less on it
Fly pelican fly, turn the jets on it but first I shall digress on it
Wasn’t I a good king? (Maybe too much of a good thing, huh?)
Didn’t I spoil you? Me or the money, what you loyal to?
(Huh, I gave you my loyalty) Made you royalty and royalties
(Took care of these niggas’ lawyer fees) and this is how niggas rewardin’ me, damn
Lets just stop now cause thats like 25 plus dope verses right there from just the last few years COMEONSON. GREATEST OF ALL TIME
who the fuck cares
@Marty
From Jay Z
Nigga get off my nuts
Told niggas I had a wife
It’s one thing to be a fan
It’s another trying to be my life
Nigga I know I’m ill
My numbers speak for they self
Why the hell you own mines so tight
Counted at least 10 times where niggas told you goodnight
Yet and still you make a deal like you fucking know me
Been the same nigga since Marcy, young nigga ima O.G.
B.I.G. Talib Kweli and My nigga Mos Def
I feel like a PIMP CAUSE YOU MY BITCH BUT I AINT HUE HEPH
Please get off my nuts, that’s why I eloped
Worried about my fucking success as if it’s yours is just a joke
From your GOAT
Shawn Jay-Z Carter
P.S. Please leave me a fucking lone nigga, I don’t sign autographs and I damn sure don’t like male groupies, BITTTTTTTTTTCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHH
No revolutionary gets old or so I’m told
Your left full of bullet holes when you tell the people go free
Oh, it’s a matter of days before they try to take me
I heard gun shots rang; his bullet’s got my name
I ain’t see ‘em take aim, I dreamt this day came
‘Cause I stood in the face of damnation
Satan spat at ‘em, flat out disgraced ‘em
He want my blood, why me?
Why not the fake who deserve death man?
Fuck it, I’ll take one
‘Could stop me but can’t stop a whole nation of millions who feel you deceived them
They believe in reparation makes it even
So I’m deadly now because of one reason, they listening
In Budapest, Japan, China, and Switzerland
We getting it in son, another bullet pass by, miss me
Wondering who plotting to get me?
Alphabet boys still plotting against me
To hush me and stuff me in the pockets of history
You won’t remember why they came to clip me
When time go by you’ll soon forget me
They say he was the king of bling, jewels, and Bentley’s
Then they use one of my lines just to prove I’m guilty
Don’t let’ em kill me…
Louis Farrakhan off the Nigger album
Now that’s a game changer. Jay never taught me shit but make $.
@ A Note From Jigga
Go ahead shoot first cause I know the truth hurts
The Delorean Driver would love to post a new verse

ya’ll cryin on my posts like you blamed it on miss Peas
offline if you ever disrespected, id correct it
in the trunk of my deloreans an automatic weapon
when marty makes a comment consider it a blessing
a few little kids told me they even learned a lesson
just keepin real, never tried to sound wiser
but this one chick got excited finding out that im the Driver
I guess by now you can tell that im a good rhymer
since ima leavin a trail a flames behind like my tires
this faggot named Note From Jigga’s more like a flyer
promoting a battle but as promoter you a lier
probably at the house like a lil typer getting hyper
till I shit all over your verse like its a diaper
but since its getting late and im feeling a little tired
and I just sent this digital bullet straight through the wire

and believe I gotta classic ready if theres a buyer. ETHER
P.S. You dont want this kinda problem, BITTTTTTTTTCCCCCHHHHH
Oh my bad scratch the word ETHER, should of ended it with FIRE !!! but hey. Peace
Haha, that was kinda sweet but what should I expect from a bitch
Yea nigga this computer typing but I promise I won’t glitch nor flinch
You soft as baby shit, I know cause you patrol this site
Then got the nerve to try say something slick at night, yea right
Been waiting on a puss as bitch
To try come see a real nigga on some real shit
No respect for a man that counts another mans riches
I’m confuse, dog you can’t be #TEAM JIGGA and ignore the bitches
Then you had the nerve to put ether after you finished?
Once again a dumb as Jigga fan who uses a Nas finish
You finish, I guess this is the thanks I get
For trying to help you, help yourself from looking like a dumb ass bitch
AH SHIT
You just like your man crush, I seen the Dolrean reference
But style and lavish life only last for a fuckin second
It’s important for you to know it’s a difference between hip hop and rap
IF we ever crossed paths I won’t give yo hoe as dap, nigga please
Where I’m from, yo ass wouldn’t make it
But then again, your just another aspiring rapper who would fake it
Til he made it
Sad to say, you won’t see the day
One because your a male groupie and the other because you a gay
Hey, bitches do as they please
I only ask that if you ever meet Jigga please reframe from dropping to yo knees
HAVE SOME PRIDE AND STOP BEING A FUCKING SUCK UP HAHA
Ha Ha Ha thats was entertaining
but after your petty verses nothing real was left remaining
Guess I should be flattered since you tryina gain attention
but at the end of the day aint nobody really listenin
I’d be lying if I said I really took the time to read it
Nigga this is easy but you already sound defeated
Its crazy how everybody complains about paper
and refuse to ignore the skill level of this nature
listen nigga im nice without name droppin, hater
you on the other hand sound like you caught the vapors
so now you making threats like we in the same place
when you know internet space the only place you feel safe
im as real as I sound from first word to last
break down both verses and clearly yours is trash
tryin to judge the conviction of my sentence for a jury
aspiring rapper? nigga does it sound worried
I meant what I said about 20 songs in 20 hours
fuck fame and fuck money, im all MC at full power
the structure of your bullshits is flaky as some powder
thats how I know those weak words is just comin from a coward
Anybody with some sense can see I respect the legends
nigga how many jewels did I just drop in only a few seconds?
Dont trip off the comments I write no time
I’ve already mastered the laws of power especially 35
So I know you just writing shit to try up your self esteem
But im already home, ive achieved most of my dreams
See hip hop is art and I respect the culture
Your style a die soon like dinner for rap vultures
so Note from Jigga, make a note to self
go find a ghostwriter try to find some help
cause hiding behind the jigga name but you not that stealth
You just another soft rapper that never wrote shit that was felt.
Go smoke a blunt and relax, be happy your home
cause fool I got my own throne, dont let get in my zone.
I mean refuse to Acknowledge the skill level of this nature, and nigga DO I sound worried. Its cool man just keep posting your little rhymes but all this shit gains you nothing.
Seriously, martys skills >
Eminem is Still Better. I just went on a Eminem listening surge again the other week and it just brought me back to the truth. Eminem is better than Jay-Z
Marty is Memphis Bleek.
marty, when you gotta have a list of his BEST songs, thats how you know theres alotta garbage out there.
and marty, dont quit your day job lol
Marty, fetch me my slippy-doos. My feet are cold.
“@stuyvesant
Shut the fuck up nigga, you about a half of decade short to say shit in this post especially about those sales. Nigga those sales are written in stone and Em will probably never be touched, don’ be mad nigga, look at it, learn it and know it, cause that top ten ain’t going nowhere. Salty ass cunt. HAHA”
You do realise noone buys records anymore? MC Hammer was near on 20 years ago you dumb motherfucker. Album sales don’t mean shit, and i work for one of the big record companies and i still know they dont mean shit. Hell, a record “sale” is when a record store buys a record from a record company. If you have a dumb ass motherfucker who signs a 360 deal that you spending next to NO money on besides marketing, and press 100,000 records and feature some collaborations with artists that either fell off, or never made it, but some people know them, then you convince some record stores to buy them, (because you are a big label, and they want to have a business relationship because it helps their ego sleep at night), then you just sold 100,000 records, because even if the people don’t buy them, you can! That’s right you stupid 16 year old, record companies are in the business of records, making them,selling them, and buying them. Sales do not mean shit, if Nas had a Dame Dash? Hell who knows what might have happened.
I got the mooOOooOOooOOooOOoovees like Jaggerrrr!!
shrink shrink blinkity blink
tryin to make me think
gonna go to my sink
and vomit
clean it up with comet
earths my pla-net
LOL Yall got the bitch trying to do his Jay Z impersonation, haha this nigga is really inspired. Haha the Doleran driver? Nigga you can barely afford a bus pass and then he had the nerve to drop two verses. HAHAHA what a bitch, YOU SUCK, STICK TO BAGGING GROCERIES AND RIDING A TRUE EMCEES DICK INSTEAD OF TRYING TO BE ONE. WTF has 2dopeboyz become? SMH
Hey marty mcfly. how does my cock taste? also, how does my asshole taste? your into that kinky shit where you tongue down my turd cutter right after i take a wet poop.
this thread is on some ignorant shit lol
nah idc those verses were nice to read don’t know whats true or not or really wth is goin on but those was tuff by marty lol
@troll NO this is not the first time i’ve put up lyrics of my own cause i’ve done it before. Go back up at read and you’ll see I was not the first to start throwing darts in rhyme form. Note shot first then I went in just for fun. You actually think I would have this much to say about the art and not know how to do it myself? COMEONSON
Then you had the nerve to put ether after you finished?
Once again a dumb as Jigga fan who uses a Nas finish
A Note From Jigga
AH, SMOOTH
I ended with that word last to show my respect for Nas regardless of who I thinks the GOAT but then I knew you would take my intention the wrong way so I said use FIRE instead.
Thanks to lines like this…

what the fuck is wrong with you guys?
@the realest, dont trip cause that was me freestylin off the top just playin around with one of my styles from a few years ago. If I used one of my newer rhyme schemes and rhymed on some serious shit? Trust me you would understand what “the realest” is all about… Just sayin
marty, you should record one of your songs and try to e-mail it to this site or something. I’m sure they’d love to showcase the talent of their c-section and I know we’d all love to see that.
for prada online shop prada outlet online for less with confident
lmao @ all of you, it seems like you stayin at home all day commenting that post (damn,380 comments !)
get a life, men !
@Chicago, I hear you but just cause I have the skills to rhyme doesnt mean im pursing or chasing anything and 2DBZ mite not want to post anything from me cause after this last debate that took days to end, they mite wanna kill me Lol. However everything that I said in my rhyme about my personal ability is true and they have my e-mail. I have no problem giving ya’ll some great music cause then I wont have to talk about the craft so much in c sections, ill just be able to show you instead. If opportunity knocks ill answer to the challenge with 100%, if not then thats ok. I dont need much just a few minutes to rhyme thats all. Would I go by marty mcfly? I dont know but im ready whenever you are.
im done with this section now outta respect for the site. One
post some songs lil nigga
This nigga said I’m taller than you smirfs…
Fuck NOOOOOOOOO!, This dude wacker than Wayne and 50 Tyson combined!
Bro…Marty. I don’t understand how you can say it’s not about whether or not (insert artist here) goes platinum and turn around and base your argument on how much a artist sells. And I don’t know why you should bother arguing with people that claims Em is better than Jay Z, that’s just silly. I’ll leave you with an Igbo proverb.
“Do not argue with a fool, for people will not be able to tell between the two of you.”
WTF are these dudes talking about? Who bought Em’s albums? The same people that used to buy wrestling games back in the day. LITTLE FUCKING WHITE KIDS. Em has ONE song, Stan THATS IT! Song for song substance wise Jay > Em > Wayne. Em is a rhyme machine but as a HIP-HOP ARTIST he is indeed trash. Jay not great as a hip-hop artist but he’s better than Em @ being one. Wayne been garbage for like 3 years now and before he was garbage HE WAS AVERAGE. Nas, Elzhi, Canibus, Pharoah Monch, Mos Def, Talib Kweli <– Hip-Hop. Pauly D is a faggot.
Damn this page has shittier debates going on than the Republican Party
It amazes me everyone of you Jay dickeaters forgot how Nas destroyed jay.
It’s about the art. Not the sales. If that was the case Vanilla Ixe and MC Hammer are two of the greatest rappers to ever live.
It amazes me how everyone of you Jay dickeaters forgot how Nas destroyed jay.
It’s about the art. Not the sales. If that was the case Vanilla Ixe and MC Hammer are two of the greatest rappers to ever live.
marty mcfly: You can’t be serious. No one in their right mind would say Jay is better than Nas.
Nas was born to do this. Jay is a smart dude but he’s a style biter. He bit Biggie shit and lucked up that he died.
He was rhyming like Das EfX before biggie blew up.
This doesn’t come natural to him. He made himself a good rapper.
I would compare Nas to Floyd Mayweather.
Some people are just born to do shit.
When Jay thought he was ready with his fake it till you make it rhymes he jumped and got the shit beat out him.
Jay sells more records than Nas because most people live the fake it till you make it life.
Looking at my own friends the Jay Z fans would be the one’s faking ti like they had money why me and my man who paid their way in the club and paid for all the shit they was drinking really had the money.
It’s simple. Jay fans are usually the fake it till you make it people. Pac and Nas fans are usually the realest niggas your going to meet.
I guess we know what side your on.
Damn lol, you guys are seriously writing verses in the c section haha?! well for a nice change in pace, click my name for SUBSTANCE hip hop, i promise you wont be underwhelmed, click the first song. See how a real nicca do it
Peace and Love
P.H.I.L.L.Y, On Nas 2nd album he said you got shot a bunch of times in the first song, then checked out the hospital and killed the guy who shot him. Then he went to some other states and sold a bunch keys cause he was a mafia drug lord then he went back to Queens and killed several other people including a cop. Nas is still one of the best ever but do you actually think he was being real?
What the hell have y’all done
… to even have an opinion on what I’ve been doin
What the hell have y’all won?
… Only thing you can identify with is losing

Back-to-back, double plat’, I did what you won’t
Men lie, women lie, numbers don’t
Ain’t nothin changed for, me ‘cept the year it is
I think I have to send you a reminder, here it is
Done add 11 to those years done
ya em crushed him on renegade
ya nas fucked him up on ether
but did it stop him in any way no
i use to hate the shit outta jay i use to be like
fuck this camel ass nigga with his wack flow
wen i was like 10 n didnt really understand hiphop
when it comes to selling no ones touching em
sob stories sell lets be honest
plus who’s had a run like jay without falling in to drugs
alcohol or just disappearing off the map
nas is talented no doubt but soooooo boring
em is motherfucking beast
jay’s a motherfucking beast
nas is a motherfucking beast
wayne’s amazing but as long as those 3 are alive
he is not the best rapper alive
and let me explain why i say this
where nas has if i ruled the world
jay has hardknock life
an em has sing for the moment
what wayne got
how to love
like 50 said wayne n other rappers of today
doin things rappers shouldnt be doing
lets see wayne randomley came out saying i was a fan of nirvana
an started playing guitar
now he skates
lil kim said he get his pants from the same spot she gets hers
whats next
soon he’ll be ice skating
making beats producing
acting ?
im a fan of wayne but i just feel he hasn’t put out
a track with as much soul as the others
em’s done it the most he has some deep tracks that let you know past the rapping
jay’s are deep not quite as deep coz being a black man
you just gotta suck up the problems in your life
and keep it moving
with the level of success jay has
he has’nt given into drugs as em
dmx , wayne n his homie murmur lol
with that been said
1. Em/Jay/Nas (they share that spot)

you decide
@Rizzler
To my suprise I actually agree with most of your post, make some good points. It’s funny how a good majority of the people I know will not like Jigga(usually hate) when I first meet them. I think the reason often is that they dont like Jay’s flow, since his delivery is more as if he is talking to you than rapping. It’s also common for people to simply not get Hova’s genius when it comes to lyrics. Of course all the ignorent people that hate on HOV end up loveing him after I talk some since into them and open their eyes to lyrical slaughter.
But ANYWAYS the reason I’m even writing this shit, you gotta either be joking(bad joke,if so) or ABSOLUTELY BONKERS saying some shit like; “ya nas fucked him up on ether “…
…
…
…First off, in what way did Nas do that? Don’t get it twisted I’m not taking away from how dope of a song Ether is, but thats what it is: a dope SONG, NOT a dope diss record. All Ether consist of when it comes to diss record is Nas repeatively talking about Jay-Z’s (looks) personal appearence. Which to be blunt, its pretty damn homo for guy to be so focused & conserned about how another guy looks. Listening to Ether you would think that Nas stares at a picture of Jay all day or some weird shit. The only other subject of Ether really is Nas dissing Jay for being misoginistic (Definition: Hatred For Women) basically making fun of him for getting a ton of pussy and just being big pimpin….”damn, your garbage because you get fly bitches all the time and dont even have to act like a puss and be whipped to do it”
The ONE and ONLY dope diss Nas has in Ether is “We Rock Chicks, Ya’ll Rock-Fella’s” (Rock-a-Fella Records) which is sick n all but you gotta come WAY more correct against the G.O.A.T.
You gotta lot of nerve saying some shit like that and not mentioning how Jay-Z absolutely SLAUGHTERED Nas with Super Ugly or BluePrint II(the song), amongst others. I mean come on dude Hellen Keller heard Jigga eat Nas up on those tracks. “And y’all buy the shit, caught up in the hype
Cause the nigga wear a coofie, it don’t mean that he bright
Cause you don’t understand him, it don’t mean that he nice
It just means you don’t understand all the bullshit that he write
Is it “Oochie Wally Wally” or is it “One Mic”?
Is it “Black Girl Lost” or shorty owe you for ice?”
If you can go listen to One Mic and explain to me what in the fuck Nas is talking about when he goes on about: his guns holding 32, 15 in one 17 in the other, I’d be grateful because thats only one of many Nas rants that make absolute NO FUCKING SENCE. As for Super Ugly…..I hear Super Ugly and honestly it almost hurts MY feelings because of what he doess to “Nasty Nas” on that track. I’d qoute it but I think I already made my point…fuck it just incase I didn’t:
“Me and the boy A.I. got more in common
Than just ballin and rhymin, get it? More in Carmen
I came in your Bentley backseat
Skeeted in your Jeep, left condoms on your babyseat
Here, nigga, the gloves is off
The love is done
Its whatever, whenever, however nigga, ONE!
And SINCE YOU INFATUATED WITH SAYING THAT GAY SHIT(..either),
Guess you was kissin my dick when you was kissin that bitch
Nasty shit, you thought I was born in Renette
You callin’ Carm a, hundred times I was bone抧 her neck
You got a baby by the broad, you can’t disown her yet
When is your lies end, when does the truth begin
When is reality set in, or does it not matter
Gotta hurt, I’m your baby mama’s favorite rapper
And ask your current girl, she know wass抲p
Holla at a real nigga, Jigga, I don’t give a fuck”
Jay-Z absolutely annhilated Nas in their whole beef, killed him on the music tip and on the real life tip. I mean the ending resault was what? Jay-Z fucking Nas wife and then signing Nas to HIS LABEL….LOL
Anyways, anyone thinkin Nas killed Jay is simply a ra-tard or gullable and dont know any better. YAOWA!
Em deserves this title so much more than hov
weathermen you sound like a stan. and someone who just discovered a beef thats beyond old. what were you like 7 years old when this happend? enjoy your christmas break kiddo.

damn that Rap Muhammad shit goes. Keep it up man, def were we need be headed with real music.
@weathermen youe right, my reason being i feel if you cant diss a man without getting personal your weak, coz for someone to get personal that man must have hurt you bad, him talking bout sleeping with nas’s chick was like really you gone put that out over some silly beef, yeah i heard that blueprint track he murdered him with that wen nas hit him with that eminem murdered you on your own shit jay felt that one, ether is not so well known for no reason and i aint takin sides here personally i feel nas’s music is boring yeah he talkin real shit but still , anyone who says nas destroyed jay is a retard ? lol keep it movin , jay amazing no doubt but even he knows nas spank him like a bad child watch interviews where they bring ether up he doesnt even wanna be around to hear them finish

LOL @ c-section. Im amazed that dude’s to this very day get into mad heated debates over the most unimportant crap ever. Im even guilty of it myself when i used to be that way. Nigga’s reciting rapper’s lyrics to back up their arguements and shit. It’s all dumb but amusing at the same time.
So this is great and stuff. But this has to be the best thing i’ve seen all year

I finally agree with Marty for once. Maybe cause he is arguing dumbasses though. Agree with everything except Jay being the GOAT. I’d drop some names…but all the names I drop would get shitted on cause they never sold too well. One being HOV’s teacher, who HOV got his early style from, Big Daddy Kane. I think Big Daddy Kane shits on most rappers though. And another being GZA. But again…I’m not talking sales. So it is probably pointless to argue with you fools.
