    Kanye has 6 classics and can put out 16 more classics. He still wont beat Jay Z cuz hes Jay Z.

    no, no, no. you don't get to write off one of the four or five best catalogs in rap in vague terms.

    He doesn't have 6 classics bruh. Why does that word get thrown around so much?

    I just don't feel his stuff as much as others do... like the song regrets.. it doesn't move me as much (even when listening closely to the lyrics)

    if you put a gun to my head, i could rank rappers.

    but it's a really difficult thing to do because most rappers aren't comparable. jay-z vs. kanye is like comparing a QB to a WR. they're nothing alike. they don't rap about similar things, they clearly have different styles, etc. another thing is....kanye has half the solo albums that jay-z has.

    i mean......what criteria do we go off of to decide who's better?

    anyway.......if i had to pick..........i'd go jay-z

    judging rappers by how much their music bleeds into other genres is stupid
