SGV, you did make a couple points, but to say that NAS is not an MC is hilarious; if u wanna prove how much u know about hiphop, do not repeate that statement. There are many types of mc's, just cuz NAs is not a freestyler does not mean shit. THe fact that u don't see Nas as a good lyricist is also funny; sure NAS has done some seriously weak shit, but some of the shit is incredible. Even when he makes a commercial ass song, he raps about important topics and gets deep.
I got a question? is it cuz Nas is not a punchline rapper like Chino(i admit, one of my favourites) that he is not an mc? Or that he actaully raps about subjects sometimes? Tell me honestly why you think Nas is not an mc, ok? Cuz Rakim was never much of a freestylist either, and he never really battled anyone, yet he is the definitive MC..........let me know what u think, i am not trying to be an asshole, i just want u to clarify what u mean...

ok at least u come to me in a civil manner....ur exactly right...i dont think of a rapper as an emcee unless they can freestyle...thats just me...freestyling was the essence of hip hop when it started...they were in the parks just freestyling off the top....a real emcee could just drop a verse on the spot if u ask them to...no hesitation....i mean rakim was tight...but i never really got into him....hes not my definition of an emcee either...theres not one emcee out that i consider a definitive emcee(not even my homie with the same exact moniker)....anyway....nas does come with too much commercial bullshit for me to take him serious...also...it dont make u an emcee if u got shit to talk about...cuz trick daddy has alot to say...but i dont consider him an emcee....trick daddy can bust about the govt, about the streets about many things...so does that make him an emcee?...kam has plenty to say but hes not this super emcee(like people paint nas to be)...theres plenty of rappers who rap about important shit...does that make them all emcees?...no i dont think so....hope that cleared it up for u on why i do not think of nas as an emcee

S.G.V., It really doesn't bother me to be labelled a 'dickrider', because at the end of the day I know there's method in why i'm such a big fan and I think if anyone is open minded enough to listen then they would understand that. I've read your points and if thats what you believe then so be it, thats your opinion and it's obviously a strong one and I respect that, I don't understand it, lol, but i'll respect it, but then I and everyone else with an opinion should be respected by you aswell, then maybe we won't get so heated when it comes to topics like this. I'm not in competition with you or anyone else here, i'm just here to discuss the music.
