JayJigga.

Yeezyshould had made this thread after his new album... but ye never made an average album... jay got two weak albums....arguably 3-4
-
Jayhov

JayNot even close
-
JayI'm surprised it's this close. Wow...
-
YeezyYe
-
JayWhat y'all think are Jay's weakest albums?
-
YeezyTo me, Jay was a victim of bad production. Some artist get too much credit because they have dope beats but aren't good lyricist. Jay's beats weren't on par with his skills on a couple of his early albums.

^^^ This. All of his albums that people really like are the ones w/ the dope beats.....Blueprint, Black Album, American Gangster, Reasonable Doubt. Jay suffers from Nas Syndrome at times on the beat tip. -
YeezyIt's pretty close
-
YeezyYeezy hands down..
-
YeezyY'all do know "Best of Both Worlds" 1 & 2 + Kingdom Come are part of the Jay catalogue right?
-
JayYeezy needs a few more gems under his belt before we say his catalogue is better than Jay, not to say it couldn't happen
-
YeezyYe
-
YeezyYe the GOAT easy, LR & CD beats most of Jays ? alone
-
YeezyRight now it's tied damn lol
-
YeezyKanye west catalog is so diverse compared to not only Jay-z but a lot of artists in different genres of music as well that came out in the last 10 years.

Jayjayz...even though he's fallen off is still much better than kanye
kanye has one decent album...and after mbdtf, he'll never get a listen from me again, that was an embarasssment -
Yeezy^^^^you're ? . Kanye has multiple classics and none of his albums sound the same. Yes, Kanye is an average rapper but his album ? on jay musically.
Kanye Wack albums (all that had his name on it)
Cruel summer
Jay Wack albums
Best of both worlds
Unfinished business
Kingdom come
Blueprint 3 (he does have some good cuts on this but more Wack ones) -
JayReasonable Doubt
Volume 2
Blueprint
Black Album
Kingdom Come
American Gangster
V.
College Dropout
Late Registration
Graduation
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
Jay-Z has had more time to make stumble musically than Kanye. Since 96, he's accumulated over 12 projects to his name while Kanye only has a handful. Jay simply has MORE good albums than Kanye. -
Jayjayz has two no doubt classics
kanye has yet to release an undisputed classic...and has went downhill in production..ever hear that bad attempt of betoveen beats in his last album? yuck
case closed -
