Crooked I better than Jay-Z?!....

[TLALOC]

What yall think?!...



Crooked IMO spits nothing but str8 fire, and 9 times out of 10 comes sick! Where as Jay dumbs down a lot

Right now as things are i would declare Crooked a better lyricist. Although i would love to see these 2 square off in a battle!!!!

 

[Meta4iCAL]

Crooked I is a beast... for sure

But it's hard to really compare him to Jay, who is a legend, when Crooked I hasn't even put out an actual album yet

Crooked def has potential to be one of the best of all time though

 

[thatguy]

jay z aint got SHIT on crooked except a better voice, but that shit cant be helped

 

[jorge]

crooked all day

Crooked I isnt tight as he was before. you cant compare the two jay been drooping classics since 1996, while crooked i hasnt dropped shit but a load of freestyles. his album has been coming soon since 1999. he'll probaly be dead from old timers age before his shit drops.

he must hold the world record of time that an album has been "coming soon"

I think Crooked is good enough to match or beat Jay verse for verse, in terms of pure spitz...but I think Crooked hasnt proved himself of being able to drop a full album...Jay isnt hungry anymore, Crooked I is...Jay doesnt have anything else to prove while Crooked does...

last time i checked crooked has yet to release an album (officially) so at this point i am willing to take ANYBODY over him.

he can be a "beast" all he wants,doesnt mean shit if you dont have the material to back it up....mixtapes and features dont cut it

release a fuckin album then talk to me

and this is coming from a crooked i fan that hates jay-z

I feel you, but I also feel spitz are spitz regardless...a guy doesnt need an album to know he has spitz..just like a rapper doesnt need to rap over original beats to be credited as a spitter...Im talking about pure spitz though, not whether or not he's a legend in the rap game..He doesnt have an album out, but i would choose him to rep the West in a rap battle over Snoop..would you choose Snoop over Crooked simply because Crooked doesnt have an official album out?..like I said, at the end of the day "spitz are spitz"...

u can't compare a hip hop legend to a rapper who can't even put one single retail album out

Im not choosing sides, but I just dont agree with this..I feel you should be able to compare anyone, especially when you're talking about specifics and not them as a status figure..Too short is a legend in "rap"(westcoast rap) BUT anyone would be a fool to say that he has better spitz than Crooked I(retail album or not)...

 

[KillaKali]

I personally like Crook better.... Idk if your comparing him to Jay in his prime but Jay was also a beast in his day. Idk, they got different styles but both very effective.

Jay-Z isnt even a great lyricist to me. I never saw the hype with this dude...

 

[El D]

but he knows how to make SONGS and ALBUMS while that other lil myspace rapper is still rapping over other people's beats

[8FIVE8]

better than Jigga?? U must really hate him. Crooked I is cool but damn. Besides, they rap about different shit anyway. Its not even a fair comparison.

me too, there are a lot of them
sometimes i get the feeling that all you have to do is proclaim yourself something and people agree

ex:
jayz - best rapper alive
lil wayne - best rapper alive since the best rapper retired
ti - king of the south

lil scrappy on one of the beef movies said ti is the king because he said so and no one that has contested has been able to de-throne him...
