1st off, comparing these 2 rappers is crazy. Rakim is from a different time of rap and his influence is immense.
Rakim would be more comparable to Big Daddy Kane (Which I would vote for Ra, by the way).
As for Jay-Z, I think a parallel comparison would be Snoop Dogg.

How are you judging it? 11 platinum albums ain't a joke. Jay also has longevity & is still not only relevant but the most relevant. So Jay had a better career.

Rakim, yeah. Better "rapper".

Wayne selling in a week what Ye and Jay sold together in two suggests that he is not "the most relevent".

LMFAO, alright just take it as literal as you possibly can. ::)

Correction: Jay is the third most relevant, behind Eminem & Lil' Wayne.

...Still more consistantly relevant than Rakim has been throughout his career.

Jayz is greater then I thought and y'all know he was rhyming when ra was in his heyday and he still keeps at least a Milli people interested in his work. And his true greatness is people who don't really like em making threads in hope he doesn't come out on top. Now thats great. Who I prefer RA really doesn't matter cause this post is all about jigga yell

Rakim was way ahead of his time when he came out. Jigga has had the better career of course, probably the best of any rapper has ever had but when he came out in '96 Big was ahead of him and maybe Nas.

Why posters here "hate" so much Jay Z anyways ? I stop checking for his music after the Black album but he had some great material between 1996 and 2003 , some act like he's on Souljah Boy level ..
