Title: Big Boi vs. T.I. - who is the better rapper?
Post by: Detox Iz Not Active on August 04, 2010, 05:28:41 PM
Reality is, this poll is an insult to Big Boi but seeing how easily people are swayed record sales and MTV awards people may think TI is better.

Big Boi. U live in a fantasy world fool. Thinkin' I'm all biased. I'm fair. T.I. is dope as fuck and snaps sometimes lyrically (especially era 2000-2005) and he still spittin' today. But Big Boi is on legendary status.

LOL, one of the most biased people here is calling people out.

I'd say in 2010 it's closer than you think, but overall it's Big Boi.

Not really a fan of TI. Haven't felt any of his "hits" and they mostly seem to be targeted towards females. He could be a lyricist on the other songs from his albums but I've never been interested enough to check them out.

big boi


as a matter of fact imma really go against the grain and say hes a better more consistant rapper then andre three thousand too.

I'd agree with that second part also. Andre is more like the face of the group and Hey Ya especially took him to a different audience bigger than Big Boi ever got, but Big Boi's Speakerboxxx was ten times better than The Love Below, and since then Big Boi has been the better performer too, both on the Idlewild LP and on subsequent guest features and the new LP.

Way You Move was also a massive hit but Hey Ya was getting play on Disney radio

TI is almost as boring as snoop dogg, but they both make hits for the clubs and 15 year olds with catchy hooks and well produced beats.

Big Boi does all of the above, but with added creativity and story telling. This isn't a worthy question.

Not in defense of T.I., but I can't think of "lyrically murdered" verses from Big Boi.

He's better than T.I., but Big Boi got a great flow, great mic presence, a good voice (no homo); but his lyrics aren't like...among the best.
