I honestly thought this was an MF DOOM verse
doom goat also, got no issue with someone saying hes better
he’s up there but he doesn’t have the microphone presence of similarly elite lyricists like Nas, Hov, and 3k
It's hard having this convo, because those that know, know.
Real ones know what it is when you mention the name.
Greatest ever depends on the day or hour, but no one else has had a rap career like Jay Elec, and he's gotta be recognized for that. His story matters as much as the music.
Tbh Jay E's early demo that leaked a lil while ago was ass
He got a lot better within a few years
It had a couple great tracks like hey 19 was amazing
And it was 2002 lol
Bro really said cole, ye, pac, earl, drake and kendrick are better Lyricists than jay

Ppl made good music in 2002
He was like a bootleg Rakim/GZA/Killah Priest lmao
It's crazy that he stepped it up bc otherwise we would've never even heard of him. That project was like one of those C tier Wu Tang affiliates.
Wait is OP a troll I genuinely don't know
He doesn't realize that he's trolling but he is.
Biggie has 2 albums and he can be a GOAT yet Jay E has more songs and can't be? Y'all weird
Biggie's two albums are better than Jay's two albums

Ye(roses, last verse on gone)
andre 3000(art of storytellin pt 1)
