Jayyou know what...i wont even trip until i see anyone over age 25 say Yeezy. Please come forward.
The rest of yall honestly i dont fault you. Ya'll dont know any better. The bar for your era is so low LYRICALLY.
B/c Jay-z LYRICALLY from 96-2004 is why this is no contest. -

Yeah. I mean I won't vote due to being very unfamiliar with Kanye's albums on account of them never appealing to me. So it wouldn't be a fair vote. But has Kanye ever made a song with the lyrical dexterity and/or introspection of songs like D'Evils, Bring It On, Can I Live, Wishing on A Star, Lucky Me and In My Lifetime? has he ever made anything as lyrically witty as Imaginary Player, Friend or Foe I & 2, Cashmere Thoughts, Threat, Lucifer and Girls, Girls, Girls? somehow I doubt it.

Yeezythis question is laughable

Jayreasonable doubt, blueprint, black album (commercial), american gangsta, vol 1,2,3 all ? on anything kanye has ever released
lets just be honest here ppl -

jay-z is my favorite rappet and im saying kanye has the better catalog
kanye has 5 solo albums. jay has 11. you take jays 5 best albums out of the picture and you still have 6 albums that are filled with great, okay, and terrible songs. those can't be ignored -
YeezyI'm a big jay-z fan and still believe kanye has a better catalog.

yeah but u put jayz 5 best next to kanyes catalogue and jayz wins hands down.....plus the left out stuff has enough great material to make 2 other amazing albums if pieced together
plus you can take kanye's last two flops and put them next to jayz's biggest flops and i still think jayz wins the battle there too...kingdom come > 808's...and everything is better than mbdtf -

Dawg, forget about it! Kanye wants no parts of that guy.
But inb4 Gold Digger, Roses, and School Spirit are Kanye's lyrical jewels... -
JaySometimes I feel like Kanye's catalog is overstated. Like all his albums are THAT amazing to y'all? I just don't hear it. Personally, I think he has 1 classic, 2 great albums, a good one and an average one. Basically 3 albums with pretty good replay value.
Meanwhile Jay has 2 classics, 2 or 3 great albums, a lot of good ? and 2 or 3 duds. I find myself listening to Jay's catalog way more than Kanye even though Kanye's albums get more burn from me when they first drop. -

Lyrics aren't part of the music?
Like someone stated earlier. Sometimes Kanye's lyrics and delivery be so corny it can be unbearable.
Ironically, I think the production Ye laced Jay with on The Blueprint is musically better than anything he gave himself besides some ? on Late Registration. -

Ye songs aren't as lyrical as jays but they have way more heart and soul , like Heard em say,through the wire,homecoming,the glory,touch the sky,diamonds,we don't care,family business,spaceships,Jesus walks ect ect.... Jays songs are cool but his ? is jus repetitive especially his old stuff which ppl claim is his best ? , it's jus nothin but clever but random lyrics on wack beats and his days about slangin -

I agree but the fact is that's not the case. the dope music that was on BP2 gets overshadowed by the wack ? . same thing with bp3, kingdom come, vol. 3, dynasty. why praise the sugar and act like the ? doesn't exist when they're on the same album?
you're speaking on what it could have been. I'm speaking on what it is -
YeezyYeezy sucks!

Freudian slip: "Makes" is present tense. Yall just cant get the current 'Euro Jay' out of your head. His career did not start w/ Blueprint.
Go dig in them e-crates and listen to RD, Vol. 1, Vol. 2, Dynasty...and ya'll REALLY need to re-listen to Blueprint. -
JayWord yall know how much I think current Jay is utter trash but we're talking about catalogs.
-
Yeah I can't listen to Jay-Z at all today. Blueprint 3 was terrible and a colossal decline from American Gangster and I will never bother with Watch The Throne but Jigga's peak is undeniable.

RD, Blueprint 1+2+Black Album were good albums, not many skippable tracks...but id take Late Registration over any of em eaasillly...Grad too -
Yeezyim actually surprised kanye has the lead in this site

I feel kanye has the better catalog
comparing his 5 albums to jays 5 best albums would be a better argument
including jays fair share of duds doesn't help him very much imo -

Whats laughable is that Ye is winning this pole with 5 less albums lol smh -

Late Reg> RD & Blueprint?
Graduation better than RD, BP, and Black Album?
