Who wins?

I say Jay-Z.

Nas is frontin'. When he first came out on the scene, he was real and had great beats. Now, of course, to top Jay-Z, he went all pop, talkin' shit about money and Jay-Z.

Jay-Z and Rock-a-fella however, have stayed consistent, putting out great hip hop, and they keep it REAL.

Eat shit, Nas.

Sorry, dude.

Gay-Z and the folks at Cock-a-Fella can kiss my pasty white ass!

Anyone who writes a song called "Money, Cash, Hoes" and repeats the phrase ad infinitum throughout the whole song is an automatic "suck" in my book. I'm not the biggest fan of Nas, but at least the guy occasionally expresses an opinion (Besides which brand name he prefers), and he's got great flow and good beats to boot.

I think YOU be frontin', Carson!

Wins what, exactly? The total black faggot award?

I'd have to say Nas... even though he may occassionally sell out, at least he's been somewhere which would allow himself to do so.

Jay-Z has never rapped about any sort of unique opinion, he's always been about as the earlier post states, "Money, cash, hoes."

In truth, most hip-hop is so trite these days, if I see one more video with girls in bikinis, over-sized jerseys, and platinum chains I'm going to puke. There is good hip-hop out there, you just have to find it somewhere other than the radio and Mtv.
Drop the "ice"... diamonds are a Girl's best friend, guys.

Neither are great but I like Nas better because at least he's got originality in his songs unlike Fag-Z

Is this...rap? What is this...rap. Does it hurt when agitated, mom?

Jay-Z fuckin' blows. Nas isn't that hot anymore but he still whips "Hova's" ass. The first Nas record shames anything "Jigga" has ever done. Fuck Jay-Z. The only thing Roc-a-Fella has going for them is fuckin' M.O.P.

Illmatic is still one of my favorite albums. He's fucking amazing on that

And Nas's latest album is very, very good. The Blueprint was a great album, but the title was ripped off of an even better Boogie Down Productions album. And "Girls, Girls, Girls" just pissed me off.

Although nobody cares about rap here, so I'm probably just talking to myself. Especially since Carson Daly is obviously a character.

I like some rap. I like older stuff like Public Enemy and Digital Underground, older Mobb Deep (up through "Murda Muzik"), etc. The only current shit I really like is M.O.P., and I liked AZ's album that came before the new one, I'm drawing a blank on the title right now. And of course NWA and all that shit. But most contemporary rap is watered down bullshit.
