More quotables over a longer period of time (1993-present) than your favorite Rapper's favorite Rapper. Say what you will about the beats,he's NEVER fallen off lyrically.STILL just as sharp and hungry sounding today as ever (see:"Nasty & the doubletime flow on the Wayne LP) 18 years later! This is where the Jay stans stumble and start coming at you with everything EXCEPT skills cause since the Black album he fell off lyrically with that Half talk-half flow shit he does now. Jay signed Nas,He's on the Forbes list,he took an L with Kelis,bla bla bla.....If Jay didn't think Nas was already looked at as the Best MC why did he throw the Bait out there then? he knew to be considered best who he had to go thru and it backfired on him.

Who sounds best RIGHT TODAY? (c) Coolidge. Not records but SKILLS??? Not half as close as some yall wanna pretend.
