Sales dont mean shit Gunman, just cos he doesnt sell as much as weak MC's like Nelly who could be merked by 99% of this site, doesnt mean hes worse.

And for the record, the only commercial rapper comparable to Jay-Z is Nas; otherwise, Jay-Z is the best commercial rapper out there - fuck sales.

no jay-z's not the best, not ever one of the best. but record skills still dont mean shit for how much skills you got.alot of underground rappers arent selling shit but they are still better then 98% of the mainstream rappers.

fuck using record sales to prove if someone is good or not, get the fuck out of here with that bullshit

i hate how people think if you listen to underground your a backpacker.

and did see any aesop rock, sole, dose one, sage francis, or any of that other nerd bullshit? people that listen to that garbage are usualy people that call themself backpackers.

i dont listen to abstract bullshit rapping about tea partys with goats wearing boots and sad suns.

i listen to people that rap about real life stuff.

jay z appeals to people in the streets...lately his songs are about women and cars...and only people in the streets like that?...

I dont think so...

And he still has sum stuff about life in the streets and all...
But wat does he say that hasn't already been said by BIG or PAC or anyone else for that case...

Lyrically the guy sucks...
Ras Kass, Immortal Technique now they're summin to talk about...

He's a good buisnessman tho and he made his lil songs to make money and get a clothing company and everythin out...

His records sale = nothing to do with his talent...

If you guys are tellin kids ova here in the Open Mic sessions to improve...go to ohhla or summin...

Juss look around...its pretty bad...

and thats directed to a lot of mc's...

^ and good on you too. Every post I've seen by Gunman either originated from the terms "Trying to be black" or "hes white"...

And Myk, why do you call it nerd bullshit? Everyone has the right to make whatever type of hip-hop they want, and some people like listening to abstract rap. And that includes me - but doesnt mean I dont listen to what you call "real life stuff". Can't you just enjoy what you like and let other people listen to what they want without critism?

Also, I think you said Canibus - he is about the biggest nerd in hip-hop history... but that doesnt mean hes not dope.

shut up wogsta im starting to hate you. i never said people cant listent o nerd rap i said i dont listen to nerd rap. and no i cant enjoy what i like with out talking about what other people like. if i hate something im going to say i hate it so shut up you sensitive little bitch.

and canibus isnt nerd rap he is a battle MC. nerd rap is the garbage that only a nerd would listen to thinking its dope. you could play canibus to people in the streets and they think he is dope. if you show some one from the srteets aesop rock, rapping about "the villagers baffel and the sun soaks in a dignitys mold with a swollen sun and hallowed dreams" they will call it garbage just like i do.

being smart doesnt make you a nerd rapper. wu tang memebers are extreamly smart, far from nerd rap. alot of rappers graduated from college that doesnt make them nerd rap. copywrite is a nerd, he still isnt a nerd rapper. wogsta your a idiot dont talk anymore. you start listening to rap when eminem came out now you act like your some super hip hop head that knows everything. you dont even know the diffrence between a DJ and producer. shut up new jack

My opinion is.....

Jay Z is a better business man than rapper.......a lot of his songs like 'Excuse Me Miss' and 'Change Clothes' are only made to get him a load of money. But songs like 'Moment Of Clarity' are a lot more deeper and more meaningful.....thats where his true skill really comes out
