^^^ COmon mate. The polls show Luda is by far the better rapper, lyric for lyric. His flow, style and punchlines tend to shit on TI. TI backed out of the beef as soon as Luda dropped that line and most people have accepted Luda won.

So better beats and sales mean you are a better rapper? Hell if that is the case Nelly>Luda, TI.

Sales wise Luda has sold MAJOR units. and TI VS TIP people are making it sound like it went multi. It went platinum. Release Therapy went platinum, in fact ALL of his albums have gone at least platinum and he won a Grammy for best album. His first 3 albums he sold nothing under 2 million units on any of them.

I never disputed he sells more now. We are getting into that area of album sales equaling skills and that is not always the case as a good measure. Soulja Boy moves units too. As far as straight skills go, maybe peeps should post some lyrical or dope tracks from both because sales don't equal better skills all the time. Look at Nas and Jay Z for example.
so even with ti selling more the poll favours luda. I think that says it all!

I def don't think selling records means your better and that isnt why im saying TI is better - I think hes simply the better rapper and is more consistent with his albums. I am down to post TI lyrics if we talkin dope lyrics, fa sho.
