    I hear that but the reason for that is because Scarface doesn't pay Alicia Keys, Justin Timberlake, Beyonce, Rihanna, R Kelly, Pharrell Williams, Mary J Blige etc to feature and do the hooks on his singles like Jay Z does. The reason Jay Z singles get radio play is because of the hook from people like Alicia Keys and Justin Timberlake and because of the beats that people like Timbaland and Just Blaze Produced

    Not sure why people continue to place these Jay Vs. threads. The majority of people on the IC feel like Jay is overratted, wack, pretentious, etc. I mean, from an IC vote perspective, you already know what the results will be, no?? IMO both are great artists with classics under their belts, but Hov is Jordan of the game. He may have his wizards era, but he's still ? MJ

    There are plenty of rappers who do hooks but don't sing they just do rapped hooks.

    Such as Lloyd Banks, a lotta 50 Cent hooks, a lotta early Snoop Dogg hooks, a lotta DMX hooks etc

    Of course sung hooks and hooks woth melody sound better and if the a rapper can sing hooks he is a more artistic, more creative, more diverse artist than a rapper whoi can't but there is rappers who can do good rapped hooks

    What i posted actually doesn't even have nothing to do with that

    Godenja said Jay Z has more hits than Scarface which is true but i explained to him why he does. The reason those Jay Z singles get radio play and are hits is because of the reason i explained the featured hook people like Alicia Keys and Justin Timberlake did on the singles is why they get radio play

    Which is obvious he asked why Jay Z has more hits so i answered the question

    Again.... what does any of that have to do with rapping. .if you wanna start comparing artist then do you but you tend to ask about who is the better rapper then go on name things that have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with rapping skills..

    Albums sales, twitter followers, singles features, awards, singing hooks, producing your beats, etc don't have anything to do with your skills for rapping...

    No problem at all with that being your opinion in fact I can see a case being made for that... Now when you start with saying others are better cuz they sing their hooks and produce their tracks and it's deep that's where you lose ppl
