Who’s the best rapper alive?
Jay-Z
We’ve been having very heated discussions here in the DrJays.com office over the best rapper alive.
Our college-aged interns are convinced it’s Lil Wayne, whereas those of us in our twenties say that’s blasphemy and Jay-Z is the man.
We want you guys to join in on the debate and let us know who you think it is?

papoose by far the best rapper.
alphabetical slaughter.
just wait for him to get big
papoose is the worst rapper alive no one wacker hands down,only slow people like him they think hes smart
Weezy earned it officially with Carter, then he just capitalized. maybe its the dreads…..
lil wayne iz
im sorry, but did that n***a BJ say “Gucci Mane”? hahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahaha i laugh at you n***a that was the dumbest thing i ever heard
Y’all ****s are delusional. I listen to everything. Not ‘hear’, listen. Not bop my head to the beat; listen. Not check to make sure what someone is saying on a track rhymes – LISTEN. And no one out there is better than Jay-Z.
**** swag, **** money, **** location, **** everything that isn’t talent and skill. Nobody’s touchin’ S-dot.
I KNOW AND FEEL THAT LIL WAYNE IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE KNOW THAT
weezy..
As usual the west coast is neglected. Tupac is by far the greatest rapper ever. No one can even touch him. Then it’s Mac Dre and Andre Nickatina. But you’ll never hear their **** on the radio cuz they’d rather play **** ass songs by T-Pain. And unless you’re from the bay, you probly got no idea what I’m talkin bout.

Just to put it in perspective. You probably know of Too Short and E-40. 2 great rappers from the Bay. And no disrespect, but they can’t touch Da Mac or King Nicky.
lil wayne da best he got it all an i hate jay z he weak… an lame….to me an he Old an lil wayne da best
MAC MUTHA F***IN DRE NO DOUBT BEST LYRICST EVER
AND THE BEST RAPPER GOES TO …. SNOOP,
jay-z is the best rapper to ever live……..period
2 PAC IS DA BEST RAPPER EVER…..BUT LIL WAYNE IS DA BEST RAPPER ALIVE….YA DIGG
Jay Z is the best rapper alive point blank period
Lil Wayne sucks in my opinion.
lil wayne really sucks. best alive, probably nas, rakim, KRS1.
best right now is either lupe fiasco or immortal technique. im sorry but i would love to see immortal technique make lil wayne **** in his pants over some **** that he cant understand
I bet all the fools hating on lil wayne from the East Coast. Lmao New Yorkers hate Weezy! They hate anyone from the south. When talking about hip hop, they be quick to bring up Jayz or Biggie. Real ****…Biggie only gets credit because he died. If he was still around, ppl wouldn’t be on his dick as much as they are now. That’s just being honest. The best rapper alive hands down is Andree 3000. He’s the sickest fool out there man and I don’t care if he’s from MARS! Stop being region haters. lame ****s.
i think everybody is entitle to their own opinion. from the things are judge,i think has to do with ur past – present – and the future.and not just the present bcos the present is just 24hrs.so, that means ”weezy” is more of the present and hopefully will still be there in the future(though he is very promising and gifted,its a fact).but JAY ,he is been very relevant in the past and in the present he is still strong and he still looks like his not at all tired.that means he can still be very relivant in the future.remeber this he came up by himself,saying ”i came,i saw,i conquer”.he is a living legend.like we say in my county,he is ”BABA WON”.MEANING HE IS THEIR FATHER.i love weezy no doubt he is tight.but let’s still live the crown where it is.JAY is older and can still rap well. but weezy is still young and fresh(he has a lot to still do).JAY is a legend no doubt cos he took a very post after BIG SAMLL and he did well.JJJJJJJJJAY-ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ IS ”BABA WON”. TAKE IT

LIL BOOSIE IS THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE NOT LIL WAYNE
LIL BOOSIE IS THE TRILLEST THE BADEST LIL BOOSIE IS THE BEST RAPPER A LIVE CUS OF SET OFF BOOTY TALK SMOKING ON PURP F*CK U MAN BOSSIE IS THE REALEST GOON OUT THERE PLIES SOFT ALL ABOUT TRILL ENT LIKE WIBBIE BIG HEAD FOX MAN U ALL READY KNOW BIG HEAD TRILL TO ALL OF THEM IS BUT DA DON’T GET NO CREIDT FOR WAT THEY DO LIL BOOSIE IS THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE HANDS DOWN CUS HE REAL SARASOTA STAND UP
okey, everyone knows BIGGIE is the best of all time,but all those people saying lil wayne and twista and **** are so wrong, it takes more than two tight songs to be the gretest, jay-z is tight and all, but for my money, its andre nickatina, DRE DOG, KING NICKY, NICKY T, goes by many names, but you cant find one song of his that isnt tight ass ****, and dont blame him for equipto ruining his songs, if your not from the west coast or the bay and dont now dre, then you best check him out
i aint seen nobody put down Wu-Tang, Jurassic 5, Gangstarr. Method Man of the Wu just doggs on everybody. Those dudes are the type of people where you listen to it, sit back, take a deep breath and actually soak in and think about what they are sayin. I do give props to Weezy and jigga, i just don’t think weezy’s metaphors will take him all the way to the top. He’s got some sick flow fo sho though. Busta needs to be thrown in there. This is an argument that will never be solved though cuz there is so many different styles and comparisons to be made. They all some sick poets though
i do agree with immortal technique being brought up earlier. that dude comes with **** dudes wouldn’t even be able to comprehend
jigga but t.i. is the next rapper in line
Lil Wayne can spit better than all of them
LIL BOOSIE IS THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE

I was born without a dime. Out the gutter I climbed. Spoke my mind and didn’t stutter one time. Ali said even the greatest gotta suffer sometimes. So I huff and puff rhymes. Lyrics so sick with it. Set the standars in Atlanta, how to get get get it. So you up and coming rappers wanna diss, just kill it. I’m officially the realest. Point blank, period.”…(No Matter What, Paper Trail, 2008) SO SICC!

as yall know everyone say lil wayne is the best rapper alive which to me he is not because he dont be talkin bout **** 4real. Im from st. louis and there is alot of wayne heads up here i aint go lie i use to be one but den wayne juss started to get boarin with his ****. i luv all his old musik from his old albums. But i think 2pac is the best because he was talkin about some real shyt him and biggie was. But the realist ****s alive out here is webbie boosie matterfact the whole trill fam and jeezy. Jeezy my favorite rapper because i like the way he flows and he on some real shyte even thought he say the same shyte over and over and always be talkin bout food that still my guy no matter what wayne hard tho but he juss changed alot but 2pac and biggie is the best rapper alive
Some of you people talk so much **** you should be wearin a daiper on yer face. Whats this nonsence about all these comercial sell out shortlived wannabes uze all biggin up like Lil wayne and Jeezy and Lil Boosie they are totaly ****e. Them peeps are just pop music manz commercial bull****. Why would you wana listen to some 1 hun stiks a Lil in front of there name that ****s got homo undertones fo show. Proper whoppa commercial ‘rappers’ like 50 cent n his ‘man’ ya yo talkin bout nuthin bout guns drugs n hoes n how hard his life is/was i mean why do u even care. Tu pac n Nas n lesser extent JAY-Z might also spk that **** but i can respect that coz they are so u gots to giv em props. Product of there era. You want to listen to some real rap with raw lyrics chek out the following artists coz they av **** in perspective;
THE GROUCH
ZION I

hova
weezy y even debate
nas
The question is not who is your favorite rapper, its who is the best rapper. This includes style, creativity, lyrics, versatility
Jay Z is good as hell, but when it comes to all the qualities of a good rapper, i’m sorry but waynes got the most, he can remix almost any song and keep the same damn tune, he never sounds the same and you never know whats he’s gonna say next he’s an entertainer. Sure he may be a damn junkie but **** if he’s still that damn smart after all that brain damage this mutha ****a is a genius, and no just cuz u high dont just make u a good rapper **** it helps but lil wayne got a lot more then being high to help his game. This dude has his own style, if you were to read a song of lil waynes that you never heard b4 just by the lyrics you could tell it was wayne, whereas Jay-Z on the other hand you couldn’t.
now maybe im biased cuz my favorite rapper happens to be the person who I think is the best rapper, but **** lets not forget mutha ****as like Nas, nas might be kinda weak now but his old **** was on point and many others underground included that dont get the fame that they’re worth.
~dre
not to mention he has done just about every type of a song from, songs talking about love, getting head, killing ****s, etc, he can rap fast slow, freestyle, like In my opinion theres almost no competition until some one can do as much as he can
