    jay is the better rapper and could maybe lay claim to greatest-ever honors. kanye is in the top ten too. but as bad as jay's been for seven-ish years, his resume is kind of untouchable.

    Nope. Jay Z's music is terrible really really terrible. Even his better albums like his best one Reasonable Doubt aged badly

    Even though he is an exceptional technical MC and lyricist. His music is s-----y

    Kanye produces as well as raps

    All Jay Z does is spit bars

    Overal Kanye has the better catalog.. with no bad albums. But imo Jay's best albums are slighty better than Kanye's.

    I would say Jay

    Kanye might have a better catalog, but hov's a better rapper(and arguably more influential). Both greats tho.

    A good way to settle this is comparing Kanyes best song to Jay's best song, and Kanye has alot more good songs.
