    If you feel he's not cuz he doesn't have a "solo RAP album"


    keep it real w/ yaself & everybody else


    jus say you don't think he is cuz he's from the south & rap started in NY blah blah...


    Seriously, think about it... most of yall sayin he's not, isn't cuz of his talent/skill... it's cuz of sum made up rule in your head that the GOAT gotta have a solo album lol

    Serious question: is 3k the greatest in the south?

    Is he better than Big Boi, Scarface, T.I.,etc.?

    -Scarface is better
    -3000 is right behind Face
    -Big Boi is a great MC but not a contender for GOAT southern MC
    -TI dont even belong in this conversation

    I don't understand what a solo album from 3K will do for ? knowing damn well 9 times out of 10 it won't be a "rap" album.

    I dont understand why ? say he a top 5 or GOAT rapper if he dont drop "rap" albums.

    He shares 6. If you don't wanna count The Love Below, he shares 5.

    How do you do that? Albums are the benchmark for anybody but 3k, so we saying Kiss or Fab the GOAT now but disregard their albums just focus on SKILLS?

    Why dont ? just say he is the greatest rapper in a group or duo? That is a reasonable and fair argument. But he has 0 solo Hip Hop albums, thats a dealbreaker for me when you got ? with 5-10 solo albums and half of which are classics, its disrespectful to compare 3K to them let alone fix they mouth to call him the GOAT over the aforementioned.

    Those aforementioned you talking bout also mentioned 3K as one of the GOATs.

    I need receipts from Biggie, Nas, Jay z, Pac, and Ice Cube now or GTFOH.

    Standing a ? who has never had a solo album next to a ? who has multiple classics is disrespectful. It's like saying a ? with world championship talent but no rings is as good as a ? who has climbed to the mountain top time and time again. We'll never know what would have happened with grant hill because he never got a chance to make it shake in his prime. Dre had chances and just didn't.

    Just because you have the tools don't mean you know how to use em, or use them effectively as you would have if certain conditions weren't met. He's never had a classic without big boi's input. Scarface has made multiple group and solo classics, and has never had a wack official Scarface album in almost 30 years of recording.

    Ya'll ? outta pocket. Dre dumb nice, but talent don't = substance. Every other rapper that's mentioned in the top 5 has at least one classic album.

    Even Jeezy got a classic. The fact that this ? think he too good to rap for us, like he get a kick outta tellin us a solo or a reunion is comin just to see everybody get excited then disappear and hop on a remix to keep his name turnin.

    ? this dude.

    Top 5 talent though.

    Idk why its so hard for ? to comprehend this.

    Who said Kiss and Fab are GOATS.? Lol man hell nah
    Y'all basically discrediting his catalog because he rapped alongside another guy for the majority of his career...Y'all are ignoring the question:

    Is Andre 3000 the Greatest RAPPER of All Time.?

    Not "Is Andre 3000 the Greatest Solo Hip Hop artist of all Time.?"

    Is simply asking about his Skills as a Rapper...that's all. Y'all bringing in other ? that's not what the question even asked

    HOW.?!? Lol

    They're all rappers with an extensive catalog to refer to.

    All it's asking is who's the better RAPPER.?

    Not who has the best solo projects

    Lol ? solo albums he is a rapper therefore if somebody thinks he is the goat you can't throw your own criteria on it, that's like me saying Biggie needs another album to be considered the goat
