    Jay is only ahead of Kendrick because he has 13 more albums. If Kendrick had 17 albums like Jay, he'd definitely be ahead. For now, Jay is still on top of Kendrick, and that's fair for the time being.

    Cole top 5 is accurate

  • Take cole and drake out this time 10 and i agree bring nas higher and nicki is definitely top 10 for what she did for female rap alone

    Debatable but this isn’t “the most interesting rappers oat” respectfully

    I have a lot of respect for Big Pun but nah he doesn’t register. Not enough work, Cole is literal leagues above him

    Big Krit no

    Andre 3000 doesn’t register, no solo material, can’t apply

    Common and Mos are favorites of mine but Cole is basically a more well rounded and consistent version of them that had more impact and checked more boxes if were being objective

    I understand Cole lacks some “interest” or “coolness” for some but his run is pretty hard to argue with

    A lot of those names you’re naming just don’t have the resume

    Cole is in a similar place as Common for me they’re similar and both just outside my top 10

    Objective Cole gotta be over him tho

    Pac and Ye are on the list too aren’t they, why you naming names that are on there lol

    Krit has much better albums than Cole, Common def put in more work. I could agree with Mos Def bc the lack of material but his debut is still better than any of Cole’s albums imo

    Andre 3000 done enough with Outkast to be over Cole as much as I still need a solo album from him

    I can be okay with Big Pun for the same reasons I’d be ok with Cole over Yasin

    And why I named Pac and Ye is bc my post was saying “there’s a lot of rappers that deserve top 10 status over Cole”
