I think Nas is the best also. Jay is kind of whack. His stuff is way too popcorn. 'Girls girls girls' 'It's the hard knock life' and assorted other teeny bopper music. Selling records to kids. Who cares.
did you know that jigga was a kingpin in marcy projects....say what you want but on the streets jigga has been a legend...before rap.
"before rap i was crazy straight, i pushed crazy weight
i'm still spending money i made back in eighty eight!"...jay z
it gets no realer than jigga...despite his made for radio hits!
