Kanye>>>>Westside Lu

 

[Word....Life]

Man......get Biggie fag ass all the way outta here (no offense to his sexuality)

The nigga wasnt a good artist. Period

 

[Chicity]

I said no offense.......

 

[Maywood]

I know it's y'all job to be controversial ,but come the fuck on man...Sheeesh

 

[5 Grand]

Top 5

Better rapper than Pac

Better Artist than Big

More impactful than Face

More influential than Cube

@MrLitty has a point.

If Kanye was shot and killed right after MBDTF or Watch The Throne people would say he's The GOAT.

Where's the controversy?

When I vote I count their rapping ability, discography, influence, impact, etc.


Are yall just voting on their rapping ability?

When I vote, I count only music they made.

I hate what KW turned into though

 

[ChicagoFigure]

Doesn't rank on the rapper list but if we talkin' overall greatness than he makes my hip hop top 5.

110%

Question;

Are we judging MC skills, or body of work?

or are we supposed to weigh MC skills and body of work evenly (50/50)?

I'm asking this because of the Q-Tip thread from yesterday and Kanye West is similar to Q Tip, neither Q Tip nor Kanye are GOAT MCs, but their body of work is legendary. In other words, you don't have to be a 5 mic MC to make a 5 mic album.

If Kanye stopped rapping after 'Graduation' then 25... But he didnt, so voted 50+...

I was gonna say the exact same thing.

Plus finding out he had ghostwriters the whole time definitely didn't help.

Q Tip is a far better MC than Kanye. That alone puts him above anything Kanye has ever done.

 

[GOAT]

Kanye didnt have ghostwriters for everything. Did ppl write records for him? Yea. But he still is a rapper. You can find footage of him freestyling and rappin off the dome.

Yall actin like hes Dr Dre status or somethin

 

[Disanthrope]

Trump's bottom bitch is top 500 or so

 

[GOAT]

Pre-fame unsigned Kanye battles Common on Chi radio

Let all the tears out my friend

Its the only way to properly heal

 

[Revolver Ocelot]

Not really sure how much of his material he’s actually written...whoever’s writing his shit now is trash but he used to be aite...I’ll put him in top 50’s...

^This

 

[DMorgan]

I’ve really just been voting off if I listen you or not
l

The bold and some polls I skip because I may not have heard enough of one person or both to make an informed vote.

Pre-fame unsigned Kanye battles Common on Chi radio

now we see why he got ghostwriters

You've felt this way too many times about "people" to give the underlined any validity. If you haven't I know that I have.
