"an extremely famous or notorious person, especially in a particular field" - Oxford dictionary
so can we stop the "blah isnt a legend" "dying dont make you a legend" threads.
Let people celebrate their favorite artists

Nas
HOV
Wayne
Keef
Pharrell
Future
Biggie
2pac

Can go on and on for a long time too.

All of these guys influenced your favorite rappers, and birthed them. It's annoying when people say ___ is a legend because they released one mid album.

travis scott a legend... kid cudi legendary...

two different types

u literally see the definition. peep you can argue wasnt a legend. juice and x both had albums and singles at the top of the chart

and thats ok but they both still legends. niggas jut be mad cause they think they always right

I'm not gonna debate this with you. I'm sure other people will.

i wasnt looking to debate. i was literally stating facts

Sounds like you getting ready for an argument / debate

True

That's why Macklemore is my favorite Legend

thats a terrible choice of a favorite legend but a legend nonetheless

More of a legend than most

So he's objectively the best pick 9/10 times

well saying more of legend is a subjective feeling, so you cant have an objective point on a subjective feeling

He's more famous & notorious than most, & to be a legend you have to be famous & notorious

So if you are more famous & notorious then you'd be more of a legend

Post Malone is actually the #1 legend now that I think about it

Sorry Macklemore FOH

well thats under the assumption its a varying status. ex: if someone plays basketball, and scores a lot hes a scorer, but if someone scores more, than theyre more of a scorer. But theyre not more of a basketball player. so macklemore is just what you said, more famous and notorious

well he could very possibly be regarded as that in a denotative sense

What? Your definition is literally this: "an extremely famous or notorious person, especially in a particular field"

The field in this case would be Rap, & if you're more famous 7 notorious then you would simply be more legendary. Simple technicality.

And that means Post Malone is the closes to an actual legend based off statistics 7 definition, which isn't my subjective opinion but now objective hard facts, because of his current streaming numbers being the number one streamed atm thus how many people he's connecting too thus how many people know of him.

Post Malone is hiphops true legend right now in 2019. More than Wayne, kanye etc.

well if you look it up, his numbers overall are not better than anyone you named. And im saying that legend being aranking status over an achievement is subjective, because nowhere does it mention ranking. it displays as an achievement

damn oxford schooled ktt2 on what a legend truly is

I'm a legend

Nobody cares about their autistic definitions tbfh

If anything this definition shows that you can't just name ANYONE as a legend lol. It's not in agreement with the point you made afterwards I hope you understand that

Rip to juice wrld.

But can someone explain to me what makes him a legend?

Most people: you can't just say anyone is a legend because a legend is an extremely famous or notorious person

Dictionary: a legend is an extremely famous or notorious person

OP: see y'all? The dictionary said a legend is an extremely famous or notorious person...that means legend is subjective and anyone can say their favorite artist is a legend
