Lmao so basically rappers who fell off, there's a whole load of rappers that would fall under this. Both cause of "selling out artistically" or just not being capable to match their best material.

50 Cent, Lil Wayne, Hopsin, Snoop Dogg, Ludacris, B.o.B., Game, Nicki Minaj, Kanye West, Jay-Z, Lloyd Banks, Lupe Fiasco, Obie Trice, Puff Daddy...that's what I got so far. There are far more.

I actually disagree with the latter. I feel like the highs of IWW are just as good if not better than the highs of illmatic, same for a lot of his other albums, it's mostly consistently and not having good quality control over his albums. He's still dope though and in some ways has a more complex flow now in some songs like no introduction or nasty. Plus he definitely got much better than he was in Nastradamus, the nadir of his career.

Out of every rapper who fell off, including Eminem, Jay and such, you're including Nas? I think it's funny because Nas's last two projects were great.

If you mean fell off then every rapper.
Fuck top five, bitch, I'm top four
And that includes Biggie and Pac, whore
And I got an Evil Twin
So who the fuck do you think that third and that fourth spot's for?

Oh I thought this was the same thread :facepalm

This is easier. Almost every rapper gets worse. But Jay-Z and Kanye are the ones came faster to my mind

I'm probably one of the few guys on here that likes IWW more than Illmatic

My two favourites. Lupe and Em. What I would give for another "The Cool" or "The Eminem Show"... :(

TRex gave the best explanation when he said it sounds like Hopsin literally took the lyrics of Raw and changed the rhymes. I'm cool with Raw but I don't want it again lmao
