You think Nas is more over-rated than Jay-Z?

I think that Nas is the new Rakim. Rakim was the best rapper in the late 80's. For years it became fashionable to consider him the greatest rapper ever unquestioned. It was like blasphemy to say otherwise. The same goes for Nas now. He hasn't had a hit in years and many have passed him lyrically and put out better projects. I skimmed through the new album out of curiosity. It's light. Nothing groundbreaking. Nothing that made me want to come out of retirement and write. To each his own tho. Keep the I don't like anything narrative going if it makes you feel better. I stand by what I said tho.

who has passed Nas lyrically?

lyricism has gone the opposite way since the 90s...it has been severely dumbed down so much so in fact that people actually think that Kendrick is an elite MC :-[

Doesn't surprise me that these rappers getting into their 50's and 60's have slowed down a bit.  I would hope these younger cats in their 20's can do a better job rapping than an old man.  It's so funny how people are like "Nas fell off", "Daz fell off", they don't rap as well as they did 40 years ago.  Seriously?  We all slow down as we age.  People thinking these rappers have some sort of magic pill that keeps their brains from ever slowing down, or aging start to creep into their lyrics and music.  I'm happy to get anything from these guys at this point.
