    No, you can be young and release a AOTY then release mid-af followups (Earl)

    You can also be old af and consistently release dope s*** (Jay Z)

    im protesting

    Eminem mmlp when he was 28

    Nas illmatic when he was 20

    Jay z reasonable doubt at 27

    Lil wayne da drought 3 tape at 25 (not to mention he started at 14)

    Soulja boy smooky tape at 21 (made crank dat at 17)

    Given this range of numbers should age be a factor considering experiences and exposure to different influences and how much time they out I their work I know some Willy nilly is gonna mention danny brown to

    When the Bari s raised even more so given the access kids have to technology information resources etc that some gen Z kid has to be super super absolutely wooper looper zoomer rap ability to be mentioned on convo with these rap giants

    i mean it only matters if they end up having a longer GOAT run (wayne for example)

    but rappers that blew up quick generally fall off quicker not all of them tho

  • Dec 27, 2020

    Future heavily ran 2015 at age 32.
    Jay Z ran 2001 and 02 with Blueprint and his Rocafela roster at age 31-32

    50 ran 2003 with GRODT at age 28

    And ofc Kanye ran 2004-2011 in his late 20s-mid 30s.

    and even right now, the biggest 3 rappers Drake, Kendrick, and Cole are all deep in their 30s.
