    I agree that Big Boi definitely deserves more credit, but idk if pointing to his solo discog is the best argument for that

    I really think that speakerboxxx outshines the love below as overall quality and his solos are good except vicious lies and phantogram which were mediocre with good moments

    In 2018, Drake.

    He makes fun music but I still don't think he's dropped a classic album

    If Kanye is a GOAT, so is DR Dre.

    It's a conversation I have difficulty with when the term is so vague.

    GOAT= greatest of all time. In the past this has only really been limited to MC's. If we're now expanding upon our criteria for selection and if Kanye can be considered a 'Goat' then the same has to be said for Dre, Premo, J Dilla, DJ mugs etc. In terms of lyrical ability.... IMO....Kayne should not even be held in the same breath as a lot of other so called GOAT candidates. You have to widen the criteria in that case for him to be considered. If this is the case... producers are fair game then surely for consideration?
