Who is the best lyricist in rap right now?
Guys thats Lloyd Banks lol
Where's LUPE?
Jay, Common, 3000, black thought???
Sean vs Wale. Cmon man. This tradh matchups
Baby vs. Meg ?? OKAY
Do y’all aint gon put dave east on the list?
How is Lupe Fiasco not on this bracket? ?
Before I watch this I know freddie gibbs name was going to be in this
I could never pick jid over boldy lol jid over does the porky the pig sound lol
Lupe fiasco?
Benny & 'Way, are the new Biggie & Jay!
I feel like Benny was being himself in this interview and not just being all serious
Sean over Wale idk wale methaphors be kinda crazy
Benny ain’t pick JID this bracket a DUD already
Yesssss!!! Conway!!! No cap!! Lyrics Wise Conway & The Butcher all day!!!!
Mans said “chillin like a villain”
You know he 40 years old
I love Boldy but Boldy over JID?
If he don’t big up banks I’m done
just lost 99% of my respect for benny. there are only 2 or 3 real hip-hop artists here. krs-one can still destroy all these pop punks. so much anti hip-hop in this list.
aint no way yall tried to sneak in megan thee stallion
Bruh LYRICALLY!? Sean over Wale? Nah they going off popularity
Em dropped last year, why wasn't he on this
Cant believe they didn’t put Em in here
Banks takes it all for me
Con ain’t better than J Cole ??????
Wayne so trash lol
Why the putting the best people against each other ? Like cordae vs j cole should be a later round matchup.
Nobody in this field is Cole and we all know that. Benny knows that too. Conway dont come close to touching Cole lyrically.
Rare to see him without a hat like ghostface killah lbvs
who made the intro? ?
Griselda been on top for years, if you know you know
this is a great series!
Black thought
KRS ONE
PLANET ASIA
NAS
STOVEGOD
ROC MARCIANO
"Besides con and west tell me who else I gotta respect"
when we talkin' bout lyrics
Cole is winning this…
followed by Nas,
then Wayne.
How they failed to mention Jay-Z on this is just appalling ?
J Cole is the goat ?
????
Nah that ain’t right puttin cole vs cordae, cordae be spittin and got so much talent and potential, he should be higher on that bracket just unfortunate he went against cole first
