#OFFSET #JAYZ
People try to use Jay Z's business acumen as the reason why he can't be the GOAT like "he's a great businessman but not a great rapper" what!? Who says you can't be both? The guy had a billionaire mindset before he even touched a million, go back to his very first album and listen carefully, "if everyone in your clique is rich your clique is rugged, nobody will fall because everyone will be each other's clutches" then people act surprised when people who are close to Hov get rich, he's been spitting this knowledge since day one, and from the minute I started listening to him I just knew he's the GOAT, that's 15 years ago now and since then nobody ever came close to dethroning him.
Liked ya comment, but i'm for sure - always thought Jay-Z said, "crutches" - Which holds people up (so they won't fall and/or stumble).. 😎✌🏾
@@jlamar2 Yes he did, typo.
Anybody who say Jay aint that good is def
nice long paragraph but its actually this rapper called TJ BARN; HIM AND LIL TJAY
Drake better
I used to hate Hove one day i started listening to his discography and became a fan he's been my goat for over 10 years
Same I always like Jay Z music and he is easily one of the goats easily most rappers cannot go toe to toe with hov period.
He is tho alot just hate on him, Lyrical, He makes HITS!! and ran 1 of the biggest labels in history, Jay Z is the GOAT!!
Jay. z ain’t no goat 🐐 that goes to the true Goat Tupac Shakur
U a dixx rider
Nas better then gay z
@@terrancethompson5184 Nas better then gaypac too
Jay Z is the most overrated rapper of all time
Its great to see a great new artist like offset say Hov is a mega force. Love Offset for sure
"from where you can't put your vest away, and say you where it tomorrow..cause the day after that you'll be like DAMN I WAS JUST WITH HIM YESTERDAY."-JIGGA
Offset clearly don’t know that Reasonable doubt sold 43,000 copies when it was released. He wasn’t always platinum and the biggest artist.
That’s not the point
@@gkay8889 Weirdos always misinterpreting information lmao
The man literally says, “he always had the biggest records…”, but somehow I’m the weirdo misinterpreting. The point is: No, he did not.
But it’s platinum rn
He did have hits even then
Offset is smart he knows what he doing he protect the bag
Pac and Rakim for me
Lol!!!!
ab soul and Lupe fiasco for me buddy
Nas for me
King HOV handsdown 👑 of this Rap Game 🐐🤟🏿🙏🏿
No cap
Funny as hell...CAP
IT IS ACTUALLY THIS RAPPER CALLED TJ BARN
Funny way to spell Kendrick
Heavy.
Ps My Top 5 Alive are ; Nas, Common, Black Thought, Andre 3000 and Lupe.
Pps Jay is in my Top 10. Reasonable Doubt, Blueprint, The Black Album , American Gangster and 444 are 5 of the best albums, ever.
Ppps Oceans and Dead Presidents Part 3 are 2 one of the best songs, ever.
Jay definitely delivered the greatest career in rap history. He will be my GOAT if he gives us one more classic album. Hov is lyrically INSANE but I don't know whether he's is really better than Rakim or Big
Bro he won‘t give you anything in the future that will change your mind then.
Ready to die und Life After Death are Better than every Jay Album. (Maybe Blueprint comes Close ) but Biggie and Rakim had Short Carrers on their Level . Jay is the goat with nas cause Not 1 Single Rapper out of their era maintained on this Level and dropped that many quality Songs . Nobody Can win a versus Battle against them 2.
@@JP-bs8gl no
@@JP-bs8gl IMO Iife After Death is not better than RD. I got a lot of respect for Jay's career. Big's talent was just lyrically and in terms of delivery
one more!??
really??? hes that close but you need another one???
@@japanrocksgousa 😆👊
It's pac or biggie my pick tupac.
Gaypac isn’t better then nas
@@Eastsidesavage hater ass
He's the greatest MC of all time
Jay has to be the most consistently great emcee of all time. There is no category he isn't added to or check box he hasn't ticked. I really don't get why people don't give him the nod.
That dude interviewing him too young to know anything. Jay done said a million verses better that Gods verse.
That's facts tho Jay the only nigga I know that can fly at high altitudes as well as low altitude
Nasir Jones 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Ever noticethebiggestnew rappers,Biggie and Jay were untouched still even after "big diss tracks" from Pac and Nas repspectively...what does that tell you! Jay the goat,period!
Jay z is the greatest rapper of all time y'all leave it at that. He sold the entire God did it album for D.j Khaled with just 💯 stones of 4 minutes bars. Nobody is talking about any other song in that album except for Jay-Z 4 minutes bars. Jay-Z is the greatest rapper.
exactly
Nas diss record, Ether, to Jay-Z to me proves that Jay-Z is not untouchable on the mic. But Jay-Z is consistent though.
Blueprint 2 showed that he is. Nas won that to people who don’t listen to Jay.
God Did Hov Did 🙌🙌🙌🤲🤲🤲🐐🐐🐐🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟👑🦁
Oh, well im glad Offset told us because otherwise how would we ever know 🙄
🗣️🗣️🗣️
I agree with the Migo! I’ve conceded that Hov is the GOAT a long time ago
NAS LYRICAL ABILITY IS UNMATCHED! 🎙🎤🐐
KILLA QUEENZ DID! 💯
But everything else, Hov accomplished more than Nas
@@ALexander-ue3kj when it comes to rap it dont matter what outside things you accomplish its about words and how they are used together nas is definitely better than jay z
It depends on how you look at lyrical ability. Jigga is better with the rhyme patterns and double and triple entendres. Nas on the other hand actually has something to say in his bars which Jigga often lacks. I prefer Nas but both are amazing artists
QUEENS AINT DID SHIT😂😂😂😂
QUEENS AINT DID SHIT😂😂😂😂
HOV THE 🐐
Facts
Legend
I don’t give a fuck what anyone says this is my opinion these are the people are the greatest droppers of all time who are legends of the rap game we got Jay Z, his brother Eminem then we have Snoop Dogg then we have Lil Wayne then we have 50 Cent and then the final person the greatest produce of all fucking time Dr. Dre
Said like a true pathetic aftermath nuthugger
Take Lil Wayne's New School name out and that's it... He is the same league as Andre 3000, Jadakiss, Styles P, Kendrick Top 50
You talk about those people you just named you are forgetting about if it wasn’t for these Pacific legends, we would have no vacuum and we wouldn’t have Tupac Shakur or biggie small without law, Kim, Big Daddy Kane, and LL Cool J without these three legends we would have none of these rappers, we look up to Eminem if you listen to this legend songs, he pays so much respect to all the legends before him and everyone else If you listen to the song is is always name dropping legends in his song until I collapse is like he’s the owner of my list goes Reggie, Jay Z, 2Pac and biggie Andre from OutKast Jada, crop Nas and then me.
@@danielcampos20242 wayne is top tier
@@ninadganore Top Tier 50 y'all are deaf boys
Jayz is a great rapper,he is consistent
...to him!
In my lifetime vol 1 is a very underrated album I can't play just 1 songs gotta play the whole CD yes I have everything Jay and 50 cent get rich and massacre to can't just play 1 song that's what I miss about music 🎶
Jigga 👑💯
It's not even a discussion anymore
It took me until just recently turning 26 to understand this. As a kid I couldn’t stand Hova and didn’t understand his aura. He’s the goat bro like him or not
The older you get more likely you like quality more than quantity and yes hov is easily one of the goats ever
Rakim. 🐐
How are we not having this conversation around NAS the man dropped the greatest album in history but somehow we just move on from that 🙈
Hov has more top tier albums though. And Illmatic isn’t the greatest album ever, but it’s one of them. Reasonable Doubt is also.
@@Goat-cp8li nas been dropping top tier shit since he was 18, the man made a song backwards
@@Goat-cp8li illmatic is the greatest album bruh stop hating and just let it be
@@treyharris8408 I’m not hating💀There are other albums too that are amazing Illmatic isn’t the only one
@@Goat-cp8li bruh I know that I'm not dumb you just can't tell the difference
Top 5, in no particular order jay, em , big,nas, lil Wayne. I'm 22 twos he said he changed styles every 2 rhyme. He doesn't do that so much these days, he's still as lyrical as ever, but elder statesman jay, don't hug the beats as much as he used to,. It's like he's just a lecturer, dropping jewels, on those students wise enough to pay attention, in an era that, materialism and drug culture help to dumb down. I glad that ppl are talking about the God did verse, cause I thought ppl, don't appreciate lyricism anymore in mumble rap era. That's what I find shocking
Here’s the thing.. around the time Wayne’s Carter III came out, people on the internet said Wayne and Jay Z are wack…
Im glad that has all changed
You said a key phrase: people on the Internet
🤔Give the man his flowers🐐🐐🐐but there's more than one goat🐐🐐🐐
2pac 💯
Jesus turned water to wine for Hov it just took ah stove
He is the 🐐.
RAkim
What is irv gotti and da baby have in common?
He jus wanna sign wit the Roc but Gotti gone sign him watch ⌚
HoV, Em, Kiss, pac, Nas
Very dope list
Um, yeah, we knew this already for decades. It's nothing new. We don't need a mumble rapper to tell us Jay-Z is the goat. Are y'all serious? If you tell me Eminem said that. Or a KRS-One, a Big Daddy Kane, Kool G Rap, Slick Rick, Nas, etc. If they said it, then yeah, it's news. But come on... What's next? A clip of Lil Xan telling us Eminem is one of the best to ever touch a mic? Yeah, WE KNOW.
Anyone who says Jay-Z isn't at least one of the best to ever do it, they're ignorant. They simply haven't sat down to listen to much hip-hop to provide context. They haven't listened to Jay's albums. So their opinion doesn't matter. Sure, we can argue he isn't THE best. But he's up there. And fuck that Biggie talk that's been going on since Biggie died. Saying Jay wouldn't be here if Biggie was still around.
Exactly very valid point
I just had this discussion lol..I constantly have to remind people above all else…Jay Z isn’t a rapper he’s a Hustler..that should tell you enough
Jay-Z is from a different planet, no one can touch hov lyrics. Nothing but respect for Jay-Z, the greatest rapper of all time.. all fame 🔥🔥🔥🌏🌏🌏🌏🎧🎧🎧
Jay z copied a lot of lyrics from Westcoast rappers lmao
Exactly hov is easily one of the goats period
HE IS
Jay-Z
Rapper
Lyricist
Storyteller
Music Mogul
WAIT!!!!!! Lemme call Nas
Preach Charlemagne
A lot of people said they didn’t like the DJ khaled verse that was light work he was practicing just showing that he could fuck up this entire generation if he wanted to mfs saying it’s to long we listened to 4 plus minutes songs back in the day
Over Biggie? No way
Hov surpassed B.I.G. tho.
Longevity, accolades, worldwide hits, mainstream appeal, relatable lyrics, business ventures/marketability, etc.
Jay-Z is definitely one of the goats undeniably. He's got some Platinum hits. But offset, right now is kind of kissing his ass. Making it sound like he he better than what he is. I'm not saying he ain't a good rapper. But not all of his albums went platinum. Just like not all of them and Eminem's we're Platinum. But the most inspirational rapper of all time will always be Tupac. Jay z is a very lyrical rapper, but he does borrow from other rappers. So some people throw a lot of hate on this man. And I can't say that a few of his songs wouldn't get hit with that copyright. But weird Al and others did this to make comedy music. So I ain't got any issues with it. Biggie would definitely go second and then rakem.. Now no one can argue with his successful business.
which ones aint platinum?
@@japanrocksgousa he's made 57 albums 13 were solo albums to go platinum and he's helped on 4 other rappers platinum records! Not saying that ain't a lot, but which ones didn't go platinum would be easier!!
I thought Offset‘s fav Rapper was Andre3k🙄
did you watch the video?
@@ALexander-ue3kj „Me Personally, i gotta give 3k man“ - Offset
@@bp2000k Favorite and greatest of all time are two different things. You clearly didn't comprehend from the video and the title.
Hov is definitely in my top5. He’s the most well rounded artist ever and he’s the best catalog and is the most consistent.
HOV 🐐
TECH N9NE IS GOAT
In the underground realm of rap
@@ALexander-ue3kj its not underground its independent
@@ALexander-ue3kj none of your top 5 can step to Tech he beats all of em even nas
im here to tell you youre tripping but also TECHNICIAAAAAANS AWHOO AWHOO AWHOO
I look at it how it how I look at Ali and Mayweather Jay Z the greatest rapper Wayne is the best
Wayne is the best Top 50 rapper, “Many Men I'm The Greatest Some Like Ali In His Prime” 50Cent...... Jay z is Top 10 like Larry Bird lol
This a good way to correlate greatness and give it its just due... perfect... imo
@@PRINCEMETRO 💯
There's 10 rappers who are considered the GOAT that are alive right now. Jay Z is # 1.
Telling him to praise him to keep his fame
Lol. Eminem must be a carpenter
Your top 4 has to be Jay, Pac, Nas & Big or your list is irrelevant. Idc what order you put them in. But these are the top 4 no debating.
All top 10 but to put Biggie over Kanye and Kendrick is unfair and probably even Eminem and André 3000.
Biggie the Most Talented Rapper ever in terms of Flow and delivery. But unfourtanly he passed After 2 Albums .
The Fact he still top 10 is unvelievable but he cant be over André with 5 Amazing albums and Kanye with 5 Amazing albums and Kendrick with 5 Amazing albums
@@JP-bs8gl Kanye isn’t an amazing rapper but one of the greatest producers of all time.
Pac, 50, Big, Wayne, Jay
Nas, Pac, Jay & Big L mine Big is better than L, Pac & Jay but I enjoy their music more than Big's
If you really listen to HOV... I mean really listen to all of HOV you begin to realize
Offset don’t know who his favorite rapper is , he was just saying 3staxx
No way Reasonable Doubt is better than Illmatic
Real talk.
Jay-Z is writer that raps
GFK
Jay-Z is the LeBron of rap
Jordan. Kendrick is the lebron
2pac
Brothers are having a hard time with Jay's success!
I think Tupac is the best to ever do it and than there is a space bar in between followed by biggie as no 2 and the rest
Em and 3k
I thought we all agreed that Vanilla Ice is the best
ODB DMX 50
Nas = Goat 💯❕
12 bars? They dont do 16 anymore?
Offset says jayz pappoose says nas lets listen to pap and offset to see who more credible
Jay Z isn't my favorite but if someone tells me he is the Goat. I am certainly not going to say no
I beg the defer..he might be the goat to y'all but he won't do no versus with the DON MEGA OF THE WEST COAST ICE CUBE !!! SO Y'ALL NEED TO STOP WITH THE CAP!!! 💪🏿😎💯
Cmon now…
My Guy, Cube may be the Don of the west. But he could never ever fuck wit Jay on the lyrical tip. So you cappin. Cube hot but he's on nobody's top 5 or top ten no where....he is a great writer, no question. But who niggas call when they want fire....Jigga man so let's not start the bs between Cube and Jay...no comparison what so ever
Cube eat this man alive...don't mess with the west this is for you Jay z fans out there...
You woke up from dreamin that would happen...Cube know he can't fuck wit Jay. He not witty enough. Slick shit ain't cube. He a elementary rhymer man. But it's ya right to feel that way...you was better off sayin Symba has a better chance..but Cube would actually get his own clock clean fuckin round wit Jay lyrically...and that's a fact
If hov ain’t in at least your top 3 don’t even talk to me YDKSAHH. If u know u know don’t @ me
I never was a Jay Z fan the only thing I like was the Linkin Park album he did with them and a couple other songs but yeah I don't know I think he's kind of overrated but maybe just me
It's true. Jay the goat
Jay Z is the goat of all time
Easy…Jov all day
I feel like when people come out and randomly kiss Jay z and Beyonce's ass it's just career insurance.
Offset gotta stop his bars up before a 3 stacks verse. Say something first offset
Pac is the goat. His verses were way more impactful and you can tell he truly cared about our ppl. Jay Z can rap but he’s as much of a puppet as any other rapper.. he’s just higher up in the food chain. He only cares about himself but he’ll do shit to make it seem like it’s not that way when it is
Zesty azz thumbnail
Nas is the goat.
Nas the GOAT though
Both of them are the goat
🧢
There's always a handful of you 😂
But you ain't lying. They gonna be battling through eternity 🙏🏼
@@savaget2058 😪😴😪😴😪
Nas is the goat. He represents hip hop in its purest form. His content is timeless. When he was selling out, we hated on Him and he came back to his roots. His catalog is the best as well.
Not if Biggie were alive!
Who?
I get it the longevity he gets it there,but he has albums that were not good vol 1 kingdom come ,vol 3 ,blueprint 2 and 3,them joints was not classics,people just cap and say they were there’s good songs on there but a lot of filler, to me biggie had two albums that were incredible his bars delivery cadence storytelling is above Jay-Z,And Nas illmatic alone is better than all those above jay albums and better than reasonable doubt, and to me it was written is better than hardknock life, and another thing Kanye has the best first 6 albums ever of any rapper including jay, so what chu sayin.
honestly I totally agree with this, but I still see what offset and charlamagne are saying and don't disagree ; I think some of this comes down to preference
Illmatic is great but Nas had a huge career decline post-90s. Ye is an amazing artist but not even close to top 10 rapper. Fact of the matter is Jay has straddled so many different generations and still managed to put out radio hits despite him being an amazing technical rapper. He’s the GOAT
@@KingLoop13 post 90s decline? You mean stillmatic, God's son and lost tapes? Distant relatives and life is good? Or kd 1 and 2 and magic?
What am I missing here? The mid 90s was the strongest Era of hip hop, not even Jay is as good as he was then
Vol 1 blueprint 2 and 3 was dope classics no, but better than alot of nas albums
Kingdom was mid but had couple classic songs
Magna Carter was his worse but better than nas worse
If you wanna say nas higher was higher than jays, coo but his lower was also lower
@@sabalipeaceandpatience9264 You’re missing mad albums in between the ones you named hahahhahaha that’s how I know you’re capping. So we gonna act like street discipline, untitled and hip hop is dead don’t exist? Those albums are terrible and god son is alright at best… I guess Nasir didn’t happen either lol if you think Nas is better that cool, but don’t sit up here and lie and try to skip around Nas low moments and act like jay was dropping duds. Oh and vol 1 is wack? That album has where I’m from, Street is watching, imaginary players, friend or foe, you must love me… are you crazy? That’s literally some of Jayz best songs ever smh
The Goat is subjective opinion. In my perception there are many Goats: Biggie, 2pac, Nas, Em, Rakim, Big L, etc. And please research Capital Steez, if Steez were alive.............
Could he recite a verse 😂
Nas hands down
nas biggie common my big three
@@standardbrah
[Finally] I seen someone else with Common in their Top 5.. 😎👍🏾
For me, it's:
Jay-Z, Nas, Common, Kool G Rap, GZA..
No ways. Jay is the better lyricist AND artist. you was fans are annoying.. always sh***ting in Jays flowers. sit down
@@mattyamweelo6027 Facts. Jay-Z is way more consistent than Nas. Nas and Jay were neck/neck until about ‘99. Jay forced Nas to become better when Nas dropped “Stillmatic”. Jay has had some “dud albums” but not as many as Nas. Nas has 3 classic albums… “Illmatic”, “It Was Written” & “Stillmatic” with (Life Is Good and Kings Disease l & ll being NEARLY classics)
Jay has 5 classic albums “Reasonable Doubt” “Vol.2-3” “The Blueprint” & “The Black Album” with “BPlll” & “4:44” being nearly classic. Not to mention Jay has a shit load of classic singles and cross over hits not to mention his penmanship. Nas is one of GREATEST to ever do it,
(Top 3 no doubt) but Jay-Z is THE GREATEST 💯
2pac is the goat of all time no rapper can if even come close to him
You reaching here. He was inspirational, but as a bar for bar rapper a good number outshine him.
@@waynez.official Tupac has the most meaningful lyrics gang no one can outshine him in meaningful lyrics bruh
@@bruh.3598 I didn’t say that he didn’t. I said bad for bad. Lyricism. Rhymes. As for meaningful lyrics, that’s a bold statement there are a lot to contend with
