Title: Who is the better Rapper? Snoop or Jigga?
Post by: Kool Beenz on August 25, 2009, 12:32:46 AM
lets get a legitimate argument in this bitch... if were to post this in the west coast section it would just go down the drain...


i vote snoop

Lol this shouldn't even be a question. Snoops made one classic, which to be honest is probably my favourite hip hop album of all time, but the rest of his records have been average. Jay has stayed consistant and has dropped 2 definite classics, some would argue 3 classics. Jay has a whole lot more subject matter than Snoop. Snoops been using ghost writers since his 2nd album, Jay never has. I don't think I really need to go into any more depth...

Both legends, and although I love Snoop as an artist, I've never regarded Snoop as anything great as an emcee past his 3-4 year prime...

Jay no contest.

Doggystyle >>> "insert anything of Jay's"

but Jay has the more consistant discography.

I definitely think Jay has the better disco is an a better MC overall

Doggystyle is better than any Jay release though

but Jay is a better rapper

Post by: D-Nice on August 25, 2009, 12:55:12 PM
you know discography aside, if you ask me this question 4 or 5 years ago, I would probably say it is a toss up. Jay has even "borrowed" a couple lines and concepts from Snoop in the past. But really lately I would have to say Jigga. Don't get it twisted though, when Snoop puts a song out like Think About It, it makes me wonder though.

This is 1 of those "apples to oranges" quesions.  No homo, they're both fruits, both sweet, both good and good 4 you, both round, and both grow off trees.  but they're just different.

Lol, Doggstyle is one of the dopest records ever but it is not better than Reasonable Doubt. Let's remember that Jay actually writes his shit. Snoop's flow in his prime though is untouchable.

Snoop for me. Jay has a better discography but talking stricly better rapper; Snoop has the best voice in the game, has that melodic flow and we he's hungry he's my favorite rapper. Jay on the other hand has that weak off beat/talking flow most of the time.

How is Snoop winning? Doggystyle is the shit but seriously, how is he better off of one album?

discography - jay wins

subject matter - jay wins
flow - snoop wins

Lol Snoop doesn't even write a lot of his rhymes and when he does they aren't as great. Yes doggystyle is better than any of jays but at least jay has maintained some his rapping abilities.

Exactly. You just follow what other people think and pick out the famous albums rather than listening to the lyrics and finding out what's hot and what's not. If you did you would niether put Blueprint beside Reasonable Doubt nor would you put Doggystyle above it.

I'm not really a fan of Jay any more either and I'm more than aware of all his pop songs, but I think Reasonable Doubt speaks for itself as proof his ability as an MC, and I would say it's miles ahead of all his other albums.

If you haven't listened to both of their discographies then you shouldn't be in this discussion. I hate it when people try to pretend like they've listened to albums just to seem knowledgeable.
Title: Re: Who is the better Rapper? Snoop or Jigga?
Post by: LyRiCaL_G on August 28, 2009, 04:37:58 PM
Jigga has been the better rapper post the last meal era BUT when snoop hits his occasional form these days, its still better than most rappers out there. His voice is unique and so is his flow that even with his sharp high pitched voice, its got more presence than most rappers even if he aint rappin agressive.

Jigga has a much much bigger machine behind him but its actually a reasonable question about who is better. snoop is jigga of the westcoast and jigga is snoop of the eastcoast if that makes sense.

I still take snoop though, just a personal fav of mine ever since i was a kid. He might not always write his rhymes which is ashame because his best shit is usually when its him or him +doc writing but its great. As for the beat saving snoop, thats bullshit, snoop is one of the few hitmakers still alive in hiphop. Snoop will make a hit beat a hit, most would waste it.

I don't even like Jay that much but I'd have to say he's the better lyricist, Snoop is just more catchy and flows better.

Classics have everything to do with how good of a rapper you are. If its not about the music then what the hell are we judging?

If you compare an average lyricist who makes incredible songs and albums, to a freestyler who has lyrics for days but comes out with crappy music. The first one is the greater rapper.

co-sign. If you're not looking at albums then what the fuck are you looking at? An emcees ability as a complete artist is dependent on whether or not they can make a dope cohesive alub. That's why someone like Fabolous or Jadakiss, although they are dope rappers, will never be a GOAT because they simply can't make a well rounded album
