Please name these MCs. Nas? Monch? Pos? Who are we talking here?

So now we're faulting Dre for doing too little work but not Thought? Where's the line? Are you going to attempt to make any sense at all?

The last Nas album contained;

Loco-Motive - bodied
Daughters - Thought has never and will never get this personal and that's one of his knocks
Back When - epitome of hip-hop
The Don - bodied
Stay - only Nas is making this record
Nasty - bodied
The Black Bond - only Nas is making this record and making it this dope.
Roses - introspective
Where's The Love - 2nd verse alone voids any knock you're claiming on Nas

And I didn't even mention average song in which his verses were great like;

Accident Murderers
Reach Out
World's An Addiction

You can't be serious with this shit. Thought had 6 verses on the last Roots album. 6!

And I already said Thought is number 2 but I'll be dammed if people are going to be in here just making some bullshit up.
