Jay-Z "What More Can I Say"?

Rakim is Awesome as Hell, but he fails in the popularity contest, I agree that he has that complex shit, but Jay-Z...I just love how he flows and how he is hustlin...so "Bring 'Em Out"! (Bring 'Em Out!)

We aint talking bout popularity here.

Jay z has a lot of albums yes, hes more mainstream.
Rakim or Guru, or KRS could have easily embrased the pop side of rap ages ago, the good thing is that they stay true to wat they are doing.


Lyrically Rakim is still unbeatable
Flow - wen mixed with his complexity it sounds perfect.

Even his worst song - "R.A.K.I.M" - is great.
Rakim is just forgotten now, most of the little girls voted for Jay z prolly never even tried to listen to him, only because they never play him on TV.

I think cam'ron didn't even touched Jay-Z's respect his disses were average and everybody already knew jay-z stole a few things from biggie but everybody steals small things from eachother in hip-hop.

There's a certain mystique when I speak, that you notice that it's sorta unique,
cos you know it's me, my poetry's deep, and I'm still matic the way I flow to this beat, you can't sit still, it's like tryin to smoke crack and go to sleep, I'm strapped

PROOF RIP..
