    Jay Z n it not even close

    Kanye is good artistically but not even remotely in the same stratosphere as Jay lyrically

    There would probably be no Kanye West the rapper if there wasn't a Jay Z. Kanye looked up to Jay. Jay has had successful albums in the 90s, 2000's, 2010s. I really don't see how Jay isn't more impactful to rap overall, and actually music overall.

    but Jay's a billionaire and Kanye's not ...if your overall measurement is success, then Jay hands down.

    I can see why people would pick Kanye, because they might like the music he makes more. But when I listen to a Jay album I have to go back and reslisten to catch some of the lines I missed. Some of his albums make you want to go out and make money, be cocky, confident. When i listen to Kanye it makes me want to get a tide stick in case I get bleached a------ stains on my t shirt

    Yall already know, even on WTT I felt Jay was the better of the two
    Jiggas music just been around ever since I've been old enough to remember and recite lyrics
    not to mention if you from NY and your entire family is NY as f--- they probably was bumping the s--- outta him back in the late 90s
    Kanye always been one of my faves too
    Kanye's music is way more consistent
