Why isn't Ice cube considered maybe the best rapper ever???
« on: January 25, 2005, 09:45:36 AM »
How many MCs have dropped 2-4 classics in a career??

AMW= Classic
Death Certificate= Classic x 2
Predator= Close to classic
WSC Bow Down= Classic

Who could argue this???

Biggie is not better then Cube. Hes overated.

Death Certificte and Bow Down are classics....

To me Ice Cube is the smartest westcoast rapper and in my top 10.

1. 2 Pac
I agree but he's better only by a hair.

2. Jay-Z
Not even close

3. Nas
He's close, he can definitely make a good argument for him but he doesn't hit as hard

4. Biggie
He was good but Cube was on a higher level subject-wise

5.  LL
Fell off 12 years ago

6. Common (who served Ice Cube, remember)
I like Common but he's not there

7. Mos Def
Not in the same stratosphere

8. Talib Kweli
Not in the same solar system

9. Slick Rick
Nope

10. Method Man
Are you serious?

11. Snoop Dogg
Give me a break...

12. Jadakiss
Hahahahahahahaha now I know you're joking

13.  Redman
I like Redman but he's not cube

14.  Guru
Come on now...

Cube is dope, not the best, but hella dope.


And Biggie, in my eyes, is the most overrated rapper ever.

A lot of those cats can't even be compared with Cube because their styles differ so much. Cube has been in the rap game longer than some of them too. The guys definitely one of the hottest comin from the left coast.

He's like Pac, he has so much emotion and energy in his shit. When he says somethin, you know he means it, that's what I like about Cube.

Definitely in my top 5.
