Ras Kass VS Nas

[Leggy Hendrix]

Nas.

Ras is more lyrical but he doesn't know how to write captivating and memorable songs like Nas can.

hmm...ever heard Nature Of The Threat?

[Lil Jay]

i voted for nas, i think hes better

[Rudki]

I agree with those who say Nas is more versatile in the songs he does, and has definatly had a way more successful career....


...But personally I like Ras kass more, due to his lyricism and better flow and of course, the classic SOUL ON ICE..

All you stans who picked nas make me sick.

Go dick ride him on your own time and not here on the WEST COAST FORUM.

By far Ras Kass is better and nas has the most borin' flow and lyrics of all time!!!!!

He can't touch a person like Ras or Pac.

[Juronimo]

Voted: Nas

Ras Kass is more complicated and uses a bigger vocabulary but Nas writes better songs and gets his points across more clearly.  He's more versatile, he can battle ("Ether"), write consience and political inspired raps ("What Goes Around", "My Country"), storytell ("Undying Love"), make concept records ("Book Of Rhymes"), emotional/personal songs ("Dance"), and so on.  He has a much better voice too.

I voted w Nas aswell for the exact same reasons you did.

[dEUz7KLEnZr]

who makes better music and sounds iller??

ras kass hands down,

i heard stillmatic and imo, its way overrated.  No doubt, Nas got skill but his songs are robot-style, it's no fun listening to him.  I don't even feel the way he speaks on da beat and half the cheesy shit he spits about.  I mean in all essence that guy has an identity crisis is he supposed to be a true prophet or just another hip hop self proclaimed god. does he speak da truth or does truth speak him?
 
ras kass' style is impetual, there is no one that can fade it...he is far beyond this generation of unmotivated mcs. for lack of better words, ras kass can bring out the god in you and if you don't beleive it just listen to Soul on Ice.

Yeah and that shit is dope but it's only one song Ras got skills but it's rare that he forms those skills into something that can really touch you in a way you can relate to.  I think I've said this before, one of my favorite Ras lines is "damn, wishing we was still little kids, but we grown men now homie it is what it is" from "It Is What It Is" not because it was so complex but because I can feel that.  Truly I think I'd enjoy Ras's music more if he quit with the Westside Ryder stuff and took it back to that Soul On Ice shit that's when he was at his best IMO.

[Ras Kass' Toothpick]

No doubt, Nas got skill but his songs are robot-style, it's no fun listening to him.  I don't even feel the way he speaks on da beat and half the cheesy shit he spits about.

When someone describes someone is like a robot you imply that his delivery is monotone, lacks emotion and is the same all the time.  I just don't see how that is Nas at all, in fact that's way more Ras Kass than Nas.  For example, if you just listen to God's Son you can hear that he sounds different all the time.  He doesn't sound same on "Made You Look" as he does on "I Can" and he doesn't sound the same on "Dance" as he does on "Heaven".

for lack of better words, ras kass can bring out the god in you and if you don't beleive it just listen to Soul on Ice.

Explain how Ras Kass brings out "the god in you", what that implies, and how does he do that on Soul On Ice.
