S tier is more famous than A tier but they're not necessarily more skilled writers

ok its childish gambino home girls drop it like the nasdaq

MOVE white girls like its COKE up my ass crack

Move Black girls 'cause, man, f*** it, I'll do either

I love p****, I love b****es, dude, I should be runnin’ PETA

ian gon lie bra he gotta lowkey just delete every song off this album but heartbeat les and letter home

nigga said f*** it ill do either when he brought up black girls

pac

I just feel like niggas be putting they focus on the wrong niggas when calling niggas corny

Hes nerdy / dorky. But he lives in that thats who he is, I just think its lame to s*** on niggas for being themselves in a world full of mfs who are fake as hell

skill is subjective

i think its more of a skill to be that lyrical and still be a superstar

That’s fair

no thats a piece of s***, not corny

also dads can be corny too

I don’t think there’s any better example of skill intersecting with commercial success in the history of rap music than Jay’s career, that’s why I think he’s the GOAT

PAC ain’t S-tier????

is your list based on lyrics?

being a piece of s*** is corny

Idk why we acting like corny is a light thing to call somebody

Niggas be having more in common with the niggas they calling corny than the niggas they call cool

True, but I give them S tier because they have an ability to play the “midrange” game so well.

Balancing lyricism and radio-friendly appeal extremely well in their prime years is a huge feat

Lupe was a S-tier early in his career, but Lasers f***ed him badly

Yall be having 50k post on an internet forum calling somebody corny for being a nerd lmao

Such a Drake stan post

I'm jk you're entitled to your criteria, I just find discussions weighted in favor of sales to be dead-end for the most part

Yeah

S tier is every time you rap I feel that s***, you said some real s*** that moves me , whatever your style is is whatever

Pac, Andre, Lu, Earl

Like this the s*** niggas are saying is A+ level rapping man lol

I think “superstar” in this case is about the musical merit in both becoming and sustaining that status, separate from the effect of that in sales

And for me that's Andre 3k. The way Outkast balanced innovation and commercial appeal for a decade was something truly special. Kanye picked up the torch for a bit.

Where we putting Push and Malice???

corny has never been that serious like that, to me, unless i missed sumn

corny was always like cringe and annoying put together with a little bit of "tryhard" on top

it was never about someone being reprehensible - thats a whole different catagory and seriousness

Drake is A- tier

2 Chainz

I'm ngl Bino has some lyrics that make me want to off myself

Bro has skill as a writer but awful taste. That's Eminem's problem too.
