    I can't ever call a rapper who steals other people's lines and in certain cases even a whole song the GOAT. Disgusting.

    you cant be that horrible a rapper and be a considered a goat

    Too bad none of Em's albums match up to Kanye's albums.

    You can rhyme words with "orange" all day long, but if you don't got the body of work to back up whatever skills you have then what's the point?

    Em ain't no GOAT, but he is wildly overrated.

    Oh yeah, Kanye's production >>>>>>> Em's production.

    em has three good albums kanye has three good albums gradution and 808 are both trash

    Lol @ Em having three good albums. And Graduation is far from trash.

    ? yourself if you think no em albums can touch any kanye albums all kanye albums are based on production any his garbage rhymes

    Kanye don't have garbage rhymes on his solo albums. Anything Kanye spit is average at worst. Plus the bulk of his lyrics has substance. Not to mention the guest features on Kanye's album are way better than the guest features on any Em album (e.g. Gone and We Major)

    Em's albums are based on Em's soulless dusty ? cavern approach to production and underwhelming verses full of multisyllabic rhyme schemes.

    Diamonds from Sierra Leone>>>? .

    If we're being honest, it's Hov. He's living the life your favorite rapper talks about living.

    Nas is the Best of all time, I have made at least 5 CDs using his unreleased music that are all amazing. If I made one with all the best it would be a classic

    Jay

    Just a couple years late to this poll but keep hope alive

    2016 Jay still the undisputed greatest MC even if the albums he drops aren't good musically overall like Kingdom Come, Blueprint 3, Magna Carter Holy Grail he still be spittin on these albums and always delivers lyrically and brings the best flows. Very few MC's can do what he does lyrically Nas, Rakim, 3 Stacks, Bis, Black Thought, Treach, Royce. His best albums Reasonable Doubt, Blueprint, Black Album, American Gangster no other MC has albums as lyrical as these

    Him, Jay, Nas, 3 Stacks, B.I.G, Bis, Treach, Slick Rick, Busta, Royce are the only respectable answers if we talking strictly lyrically

    I still say Melle Mel is The GOAT. He laid down the blueprint.

    Having said that, 90s rappers got better marketing and promotion. Also, Rappers in the 90s were signed to major labels and had better production budgets. They had major labels hiring the best producers for their albums (Jay, 2Pac, Biggie, Nas,)

    Considering that the 90s rappers had better marketing, promotion and production than their 80s predecessors, 90s rap albums were better, but I wouldn't say that they rapped better, or that they were better rappers, they just had budgets that 80s rappers didn't have.

    Rakim changed the way rappers did things, he upped the bar, then Nas came and did the same thing in 94 with Illmatic, I don't care if Rakim said Jay was better than him I disagree, Jay is soooo overrated, I have said it many times on here and I will say it again, Jay has a whole generation of fans brainwashed, I really do believe that.
