Jay-Z VS. Kanye

these guys arent even in the same league to compare. Jay-z is what michael jordan is to basketball. no joke. yes tupac and biggie came before him and yes they were very good, but jay-z brought it to a new level. sure he's lyrically crappy now, but he's still a commercail success. he's so big it doesn't really matter. you can't deny it. but he knows it. he even says if he could be good lyrically, he would want to be talib kweli. all of new york and foreigners love him.

kanye isn't bad. he too sucks now tho. after late registration, his new stuff is pretty different. he still samples, but lyrically, its not good either. it is nice to see him try new things. he was great till about 2005. but he too doesnt have anything to prove now. he's also a commercail success.

both are awesome in their own ways, but you can't compare michael jordan to kobe. im not saying kanye is kobe, but i can't think of anyone else who good at bball.

in any case lebron>nba (and maybe life)
 
kayne's new album 808s&Heartbreaks had maybe 2-3 good tracks.
Jay-z's new album blueprint 3 is just off the hook, every tracks sick

plus kayne thinks georgeWbush hates black people and is responsible for katrine + he apparently doesnt like petite hot young blond things ie taylor swift.


so kayne ftl
Jay-Z+1
 
This is the most pathetic discussion in history! Jay Z shits on Kanye, I can't believe anyone would think Kanye is anywhere near Jay Z. Reasonable Doubt is one of the best hip hop albums ever made. Kanye's best album is Jay Zs 4th best album.
 
Slightly different genres....but anyway

Jay-Z has more original material
Stronger lyricist

I guess it depenRAB how you rank "better"?

More popular?
More club hits?
Album sales?
Talent?
 
On second thought...

Kanye broke the news that George Bush doesn't like black people...and that Bush caused Katrina. Maybe we should vote for him.
 
Jay Z although I've never been into him personally.. Kanye is fail based on his approach alone. He really should have stuck to producing. Again personal pref but I actually could tell he sucked lyrically on College Dropout. You can totally hear him stumble over his verses.. weak.
