common iight i give it to you,no.

OH HELL NAWWW abt rakim tho,fuck no,fuck you,rakim a pioneer nikka,i still listen to him man.

what you gon say next,kanye drops punchlines better than Big L,cuz u like his punches

or the nikka can fit more syllables than Em,some of yall new nikkaz.

that pic u posted to prez,them nikkaz look like fags tho.

What I think abt kanye:
Fashion: Nikka dresses like a fag,he wears opened shirts tryna show his ribcage,tight pants and gay suits,i just hate the way he dresses,im hip hop to the bone,i sag my pants,i buy more sneakers than t-shirts and pants,etc.

Beats: he is a great producer,he is deff up wit the greats but he aint the great,aint nobody toppin dre to me,uh uh.

Rapping: Simple but effective

Persona: He a asshole,and i love the way he got his swag with this tho

i like kanye but some yall nikkaz abuse hip hop by saying in the same sentence these names: Eminem Biggie Kanye Rakim.

^Those other than kanye are greats,Grade A Top Tier MC's.

kanye is a Grade C middle Tier MC,though.

my 2 cents,yall nikkaz mad as hell!!

Rakim has had the most overall influence without a doubt. It was him who artistically shaped the art of rapping and made it possible for a lot of the acts that blew up after his major album release. Nas has paid homage to him several times (so has Eminem), he has even made a tribute track.

While Kanye West is all about the beats (who actually looks forward to his songwriting? Would shitty songwriting stop anyone from buying one of his albums?), Rakim is a genius of the most important aspect of hip hop.

I agree the whole universe of hip hop is a million times bigger today and that the internet has made it possible to listen to litteraly everybody but there is a reason why nobody complains about Rakim constantly calling him himself the God of hip hop.
