best NYC rapper?

[you gon always be my latin queen bitch]

what time frame hack?
not only hip hop is dead but so is nas lol

then yeah stretch is doper
but jay is dope and he can still rap
IMO
jay>>>nas  (right now and many more)

if big stretch writes his own lyrics
big stretch>>>jay

jay is dope but yeah doubt hes in the top 20 of all time

big stretch did indeed write his own lyrics + produced all his own beats  (along with his brother Majesty)




and Big Stretch never stole lyrics from Biggie

1-nas > jigga easily

Nas easily.Nas is the definition of an underground artist who just so happens to be lucky enough to get the major push.

[sofdark]

I gotta say Nas.
I wanna say Big L but he passed away too quick. Wonder if he would've maintained his skill after millenium.
