      That's what they do when you own the industry structure, anybody that's deep deep into rap won't consider Jay Z the greatest, Jay z is just a commercial success that's all, everybody is not a good businessman

      I think Hova is well rated because you barely see him in anyones Top 5 list. Just because Ebro is utterly delusional about Jay Z doesn't mean it's a popular consensus.

      Lets be real if Tupac and Biggie were still alive they would be irrelevant now. Their 'greatness' lies in the fact that they were killed. If that never happened they would have died out like every other rapper from that era. Jay Z the only one who is still relevant so yeah hes the goat.

      @Bhargav Chavda they're top 2 when it comes to making timeless, quality hip-hop. They were able to adapt into the new era better than most rappers of their era and when it comes to having the complete package of beats, rhymes, flow, etc. and I can't think of many who could compete when you talk about their overall volumes of work. You can argue about who is more technical and uses more metaphors, but in the grand scheme of things, those two are meaningless when talking about the greatest overall.

    Before we get into Nas Vs Hov albums...lets start with how Nas changed the whole game and how rappers rap,..including Hov!...About how many classics albums Nas has? well i lay them out for you...Illmatic, It Was Written, Stillmatic, God's Son ( a solid 4 classics) Hov is a much better business man that knew how to sell himself with okay lyrics, Nas is a lyrical genius, poet, soulful wordsmith MC but a terrible business man!! do a comparison of album vs album....and get real hip hop heads to judge...see who comes out the victor.

You DEFINITELY don't want to compare who has had more classic songs/albums and overall verses in their careers do you? Jay SLAUGHTERS Eminem in the area that actually matters the most. The fucking MUSIC. Em technically outraps everyone but he rarely OUT WRITES anyone. He is a TERRIBLE writer. He's not a poet. He's just mastered art of making nonsensical rubbish 'intricate'. A surface level, shock value rapper with nothing of any importance or thought provoking to Rap about 70% of the time.
