DUBCC - Tha Connection > Outbound Connection
this guy says tupac, jay z, are the most overrated rappers ever. Agree?
M Dogg™:
LOL... I said Nas is the best rapper alive. Big L has sadly passed. I remembering hearing my homeboy "freestyle" saying a bunch of unheard Big L lines at the time. I was like, damn, he could get a contract. A year later they dropped the Big L CD, and I heard word or word the same lines... lol. But I would never underrate Big L, one of the best that ever did it.

Why do I say they are overrated, 'cause heads rate them so high and they waste their talents. Jay-Z IMO is talented, but he puts all his talent in his work. Slug and Canibus don't use all there talent, or they'd be platnum rappers. Slug is on some weird shit, I heard so much of him, it gets me mad to know he should be bigger, especially 'cause his white, and is not fucking up the game. You can say, he loved his music, but his talent is not being used either. Canibus is a wasted of lyrical genious. His a battle rapper that lost two major battles already and burried his own career. If his a battle rapper, shouldn't he have beaten an older, not as great LL Cool J. Eminem I understand. As for Em himself, listen to every album since Slim Shady LP. He does not consident with his music. One song is a classic, and one song is garbage. if he would actually put his all in his music, he'd be top 5 of all time.
Jay-Z, say what you will, but he can put his all into an album. You know every song his thinking hot single, or an additional track to a great CD. He works hard, and you can tell it in his music. He is not the best rapper alive like him and his fans say, so he is overrated, but not everyone overrates him. Everyone over rates Slug, Canibus, but most every head will tell you Jay-Z is wack, which is far from the truth. His haters even out the Jay-Z dickriders. Canibus and Slug have no haters, so they are rated higher than they should. Eminem, he has so many fans, that his haters are almost a non factor.

nerd rap bullshit? ya okay your the one writing paragraphs and seems obsessed with the guy. feeling you have to defend jay with your life and posting his lyrics from only a couple songs. big deal, his delivery and voice are horrible and if u knew anything you would know he struggles with riding beats. he was tryin to find his identity back then and now finally found copin kanes style works for him. dude is overrated because of people like u who think so highly of him, quite sad. "Eminem, Slug and Canibus are all better than Jay" is true...im not gonna find any lyrics like u bcuz i personally dont care that much about the guy, hes overrated. only ppl who do that is "nerd rap bullshit" type cats like your self
Ras Kass' Toothpick:
This is a funny thread.
Slug and Canibus better than Jay?
Chino XL better than Nas?
That's comedy.
Jay-Z and 2Pac are overrated. Probably not the most overrated but overrated nevertheless.

lol @ jay "copying" kane when he was mentored by him and jaz-o. i guess big l copied lord finesse too, huh? the thing i really find funny is how you talk about jay "not being able to ride a beat" aka flow, and then you got ras kass in your sig. irony at its finest. when him, slug, or canibus can put out an album universally accepted as a good album, come holla at me. cause jay already has 2.

What do you mean by universally accepted? I'll give you Canibus, I haven't heard enough Slug, but Eminem Show, MMLP, and SSLP are pretty accepted. They all got rather good reviews from every type of review I've read. I'm not saying you're wrong but can you show that any of Em's first 3 albums were not accepted?
