- www.vladtv.com - Papoose spoke with VladTV about comments he made in a recent interview where he stated that he strongly believes that he is lyrically better than Jay Z. Pap went on to elaborate on those comments, and explained how there were many fans who agreed with him, while others debated his comments. He believes that if you take out the success levels that each rapper has achieved, and just compare their lyrical skills, then Pap confidently feels that it is a fact that Jay Z is not on his level.
Pap went on to state that he doesn't think anyone in the game is better than him. He doesn't think it makes any sense to participate in such a competitive musical profession and actually admit to yourself that you aren't the best in the game.
Do you think Papoose is better than Jay Z? - เพลง
HE SAID "lyrically" he's better than Jay. Y'all talking about albums and shit.
speak on it. bar to bar pap kill any rapper
Without even trying....bar for bar Pap is the king.
King Los will give pap a run for his money ...
when you talking lyrically no one ever says papoose
Realnigga Turner And better than Jay-Z probably lyrically ( king los sic )... That kid is is the truth. Check his frestyles on sway in the morning trust me you'll slap your own @&& three times. But pappose need to slap him self once in the his self in the mouth for taking &#!+. His wife even said Jay-Z was her favorite rapper. Wonder what the bedroom talk with her after this interview was like..."umm bae you know you my #1:-) Now can I some d!¢£ now...LOL. MAYBE IT'S THE HAITIAN IN ME.
JAY-Z HAS COPIED EVERYBODY WHY DOES EVERYONE RIDE HIM LIKE HE'S GREAT ?
***** ?
Jay-z has too many classics not to be great
philly nation So you won't speak on him copying every rapper ?
***** he does bite alot. But its not like he doesnt have his own original material. His body of work along with his consistency is very impressive
He does. He's slick at biting flows. Now a days it's damn near cool to do it. Most hip hop and harmonish hip hop of mainstream uses the Migos flow
Pap is so underrated because dumb people dont understand the crazy lyrics he be spittin
lmao foh that nigga doodoo
Facts..they dont understand hip-hop
Jovan Duckworth Papoose the wackest NY rapper since Designer.
Yall saying pap wack yall smoking dicks tbh
@@toastybeansx23 not wack but come on he nowhere near hov in any category
'I dumbed down for my audience to double my dollars.'
Jay Z already said he sacrificed lyrical content for commerically successful content.
'Truthfully I wanna rhyme like Commonsense (but I did 5 mil) I ain't been rhyming like Common since.

Common is conscious tho, not super lyrical. Papoose is conscious, street, AND lyrical.
@@scienz accurate love both tho
@@scienz facts
@@scienz Behind all that conscious content, Common is definitely an underrated lyricist. Songs like Hungry, Resurrection, and Nag Champa are examples of Common's lyricism on full display
lyrically pap will eat jay alive! just because jay got hits,and alot of money don't make him a lyrical god!
you the only one dat wrote the truth right here
Kenyatta Brunn right
I think people sleep on what Jay can do in a battle.
king esseen he can't freestyle for shit compared to pap. damn Jay z can't rap like niggas like Styles P ,X ,Pap
+Tj Williams -That's not true. Head up Jay Z has beaten the GZA, LL, and Busts Rhymes amongst others. The only people who could've got with Jay head up are Big L & X. Nas couldn't beat Jay straight up. Don't bring up Em or Black Thought, because that's another level. lol
Jay-Z is overrated. I never understood his appeal. People think it's outrageous to say that Papoose is nicer than Jay-Z but really, a lot of rappers are, including Pap
+Mimi Bunny in other words he's a sellout
he's according to you better cuz he's a mainstream
I understand you said sodeways he's a sellout
If he was so much better than Jay where he is in his carwee clearly doesn't support that statement.
Just a ploy 2 pull Jay into a weak ass beef. That's ALL this was.
+truestdude Career
the fact that he threw Tupac in great lyrical category tells you this man knows exactly what he's talking about a lot of people disagree with me when I said Tupac is the greatest lyricists I've ever heard this man just told you

@@williehudson4013 you're totally wrong Tupac was crazy lyrically and to say he didn't have punchlines and metaphors get out of here man
@@williehudson4013 listen to Hail Mary very closely then come back and talk to me that's just one song
PAC is overrated af u clearly need to listen to better rappers
@@ATREU850 how's he overrated explained because he don't sound like Drake?
Jay-Z is not even Better Than DMX!! He literally ran away from DMX. I can definitely agreee with Pap.
Q'Dareus Lomas i still bump to that song they made together Money, Cash, Hoes, 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lmfao nigga said DMX! 😂😂😂😂
You high boi?
Fck outta here bruh.. Jay's lyrical intellect will mop the floor with X..
No disrespect to X
Jay is a million times better than X so you're bugging! He's better than Pap too so cut the shit lmfaoo
I agree Papoose is so much better than Jay-Z, he's not lying about being better but people won't ever give him his props because Jay is more popular but no where near better...
I disagree wt Papoose bc deep down Papoose doesn't even believe that shit. This is just a shot @ trying 2 pull Jay into a wack ass beef. & unfortunately 4 Papoose he didn't understand that Jay is WAY SMARTER than that. Plus Papoose is down wt Kay Slay. & he & Jay ain't never seen eye/eye.
truestdude I Respect Your Opinion
+Dro Briggz Tru dat. Hold it down
Jay just make better songs but pap got him on the bars
@Dell. My thoughts exactly!!!!
Pap is a modern tragedy. Dude should be every hip hopper's fave emcee. He's not even doing the fake confidence thing, he is more lyrical and better than Jay-Z. Jay has never dropped science like Pap.
Not even
I like Jay better but yeah on a science level nah.
Tbh and don’t drag me but ion really put jay at the top with the real emcees cause a lot of jay shit is recycled I salute him and like him more on the business side cause he inspirational on that end 💯
Never say never lol but yeah pap better
Papoose not better than jay z on grounds that jay z more then just a rapper he was the most skilled at the time he was just an mc now jay is a business man before a rapper so if he was still protecting the throne he’d be the king no offense to papoose but he can’t even understand half the bars jay spits cuz jay is on a different level of understanding
Papoose the most lyrical rapper ever from Brooklyn..yall must never listened to his early 2000s mixtapes .dude different ❤❤❤
All day long I personally think pap has better raps than j z, without a doubt he’s better 💯

I dont disagree with him. Lyrically, Jay can't fuck with him. But Jay Z makes better music. Fuck all the money, jewelry, clothing company, and all other business accolades. If we talking about music, Pap doesn't make better music than Jay Z, but he's a better lyricist. By far.
Couldn't have put it any better bro

who said this?
I agree with Papoose. LYRICALLY Jay Z just isnt as nice as Papoose. Yes, he comes out w constant hits. Yes, he has a lot more credentials than Pap but if you honestly take a recent verse from Jay Z, lyrically theres no depth nor substance. In my opinion i think Jay Z is just comfortable. He's in an era of his career where he can come out w anything & it'll sell simply bc his name is on it.
***** lol. But this has nothing to do w/ him taking "9 years to drop an OK album", he just said that he feels that he's better lyrically. Nothing is wrong with thinking that you are better than the next man that's in the same profession as you!!!
Enough conversation, lets puts some lyrics up on the board. I did like pap, but his flow is too stiff and some of his puchlines don't make sense. Put any of papoose bars up and i'll challenge them with some Jay bars from the BP3 and forward, just to make a point. Hell, I'll even pull from his wackest albums like the BP2, Kindom Come, and MCHG.
Girl wat is wrong wit yo fucking mind are u slow
Papoose is so underrated , dude is one the most lyrical rappers on the planet and nobody seems to include him with the GREATS ...
I'll agree with Pap over Jay lyrically. Ya'll forgot when Jay was copy n pasting Biggies lyrics? lolol

@@ashleyhaynes5323 😹😹 Yeah right!
@@ashleyhaynes5323 pap would destroy Jay n during that time Jay was second in line to DMX
Papoose > Jay Z If you disagree you don't know about rap. Strictly from a lyrical standpoint Pap is miles ahead. Nobody can back up that jay z is a better lyricist than Papoose.
I can understand if people like Jay Z's songs more, but Papoose is definitely better lyrically.
Reasonable Doubt Jay Z has a chance to compete with Papoose
But Papoose' punchlines and wordplay has greater consistency
Jay-Z in his prim was sicker
Mike DeSimone Truth
Papoose doesn't even have a classic Album or song
I agree with pap, but put nas and big pun in that lyrical level too
And Big L, Vinnie Paz! Big L and Pap on a track would be next level!!
There’s a radio freestyle with Jay-Z and Big L! Big L murdered it and Jay couldn’t match 2 different levels as is Pap he would body Jay lyrically! Love to Jay Z many big tracks and albums but this is about being a lyricist
@JayoJay nah Jay z is nicer than 2pac
@@ChappaTheMicologist ra rugged man and mac Miller were better than Vinnie. But big L the greatest of all time
@@tyresefisher3921 yeah yoi must be sniffing dumby dust

Y'all saying jayz is more lyrical....hell noooo he's not....he just know how to make songs

Hov has admitted more than once that he has foregone his extreme
Lyricism in favour of hits and $$ tho. So idk why ppl are surprised.
"If skills sold, truth be told, I'd probably be / Lyrically Talib Kweli / Truthfully I wanna rhyme like Common Sense / But I did 5 mill' - I ain't been rhyming like Common since" - Moment of Clarity
"I went from the favorite / To the most hated / But would you rather be underpaid or overrated? / Moral victories is for minor league coaches / And Ye already told you we major you cockroaches / Show me where boats is / Ferrari Testsrossas" - So Appalled
So he isn't trying to be the best lyricist. He's trying to be the biggest icon in rap, with a good balance of every aspect of his game to make that $$$
took the words outta my mouth. Just hasn't made anything good since black album. He spent 5+ years comparing himself to Frank Lucas, and MJ in every song. His last good verse was on food and liquor.
Well said
But what you quoted were hot lines. Even if Jay wants to be iconic, He still has a good balance of incredible bars. Even when he stated " I'm just a hustler disguised as a rapper/ in fact you can't put this hustle inside of a wrapper/rapper" was still dope. I will admit that Jay got real lazy on his last album, but he dropped some real SHIT on that WE MADE IT track. He's not corny. He's actually one of the best to do it. Now 50 use to be insane with lyrics, but not anymore. I can see Pap saying that about Fifty, but not Jay.
But then you are stating that he is purposefully lowering his lyrical ability. So if Papoose is coming at Jay with his all but Jay is holding back, is it a true fight? Jay isn't using his full ability. Also at the end of the day who is on our minds more? Jay-Z or Papoose? Jay-Z has certified classics under his belt. What does Papoose have? I think Pap is just being bitter and throwing shots.
sargon
You trippin. Guess you've never heard BP3, Watch The Throne or Magna Carta. Pretending Jay hasn't made good music since his 3rd classic is just foolish.
Name one Jay Z song that can come close to paps alphabetical slaughter.................I'LL WAIT
Shanel Shavers breath easy from the blueprint
Knowbe Onekanobe the blue primt krs one did it first and not inpressove to mention
PSA, Meet The Parents, Breathe Easy, Marcy Son, Jigga My Nigga, almost all of reasonable doubt.
Alphabetical slaughter was cool, but not to be rude it isn't that savage. Bar for bar. J has way more quotable and thought provoking lines.
People like to root for the underdog, but for dang sure. You only going to run to about 3 freestyles to compete with J catalog.
Let's be real here people.
None! Lol..😂
Show you how to do this
Meet the parents
Reasonable Doubt, Blueprint, Vol2, Black Album
Yes, he said nas, shouts out to papoose
Nat Willz th-cam.com/video/EajbW4Z0hs4/w-d-xo.html
This is going to sound blasphemous but Jay was always corny to me. Jay is like Drake: mad popular and everyone agrees that he is the top dog but yo, inside, Drake is a square, you cant buy cool.
word
drake is a square, but u can't deny that dude has got lyrics.
Michael Thomas (sigh) You are right, my man do be spitting them bars.
+Michael Thomas lmao Quentin Miller does have bars lol
It doesn't sound blasphemous because Jay-Z is a regular person. He's not on a crazy level of humanity or society to make you say such. He's no God, Demi-God, or Diety. Not a pastor, Rabbi, Prophet, Christian, Buddhist, etc. Not a Jahovah Witness or associated with any faction representing a way to be considered blasphemous to speak against his MUSIC and be worried about backlash or repercussions from Jay. He's just a rich ass nigga. THAT'S IT.
Lyrically Papoose shits on Jay Z. Alphabetical Slaughter is better than anything Jay has put out recently.
Young Bricks
Nah you trippin
Nah. I just no lyricism when I hear it lol.
word
ARE YOU FUCKING HIGH LOL
he aint fucking with HOV!
Jay is really a lyrical nigga... his ability to balance the sequence of words sound to contrive a bar is crazy... if you really listen to Jay his wordplay is crazy
😂😂😂
I agree with Pap perspective. He knows Jay could never make an Alphabetical Slaughter and even the lyricist who he think better made songs Jay couldn’t make. I Gave You Power (NAS), Brendas Got A Baby (PAC), Loves Gonna Getcha (KRS One), Young Black & Gifted (BDK), Streets of NY, Blowing Up In The World (KGR), Everyday Struggle, Sky’s The Limit (BIG).
Lyrically pap is better as far as make hit records jay-z is better.
+locksley11agreed.. from where I see it.. pap is a lyrical god. alphabet slaughter put him in a league of his own. however pap could never make records period that goes for mixtapes and albums, let alone hit records. jay-z entire body of work is incredible no matter what anyone thinks.. but I agree with pap.. jay-z is not on the lyrical level of tupac,DMX,Nas, hell to me cole is light-years better than hov..
Jay-Z is only relevant because everyone else died.
+Black Moustache lol
+Black Moustache people like you probably still haven't heard Jay's tracks with Big, they were equals together, Jay was always going to be big regardless of wholes was still around
nas, rakim, KRSone, big daddy kane, Kanye, Eminem ect, are still alive lol
+Black Moustache STFU!!
"People say He's no Big or PAC But he's close/ how am I supposed to win when Ya'll got me fighting Ghosts..?" ~ JAY-Z
What about Eminem, Biggie, Big L, people like that
"Every rapper has to feel like their the best, or else what's the point of doing it?" LMFAO, HELL YEA! It's all in your head Papoose! Jay's delivery is beyond your understanding Pappoose.
you can never say a person is hater for having an opinion, i respect his opinion show and prove
What are you saying? Hip-Hoppers do this all the time :P
Az is the coldest Brooklyn cat to ever grasp a mic! That's my Word!
I agree
+VERONICA Davis Word!
One word describes AZ....Effortless.
AZ the most underappreciated MC of all time for sure but GZA is best Brooklyn MC PERIOD.
G Slimm AZ is very underrated.
If he had a choice,would he rather to have his career or Jay Z's?
Lol like King Jaffe Jeffery said on coming to America " who told you that ?" 😆
There's a difference between a MC and a Rapper, Papoose is an MC and Jay Z is Rapper (formally a MC).
I agree with him Jay only talks about money his girl etc same thing every time
And what does content have to do with lyrical ability?
Deadass serious.Lyrical ability is ability to rhyme. Content is subject u rhyme about. Learn something lame
U literally dont know the definiton of lyrical...like ur deadass serious. So I guess u think Lil Waynes How to Love is lyrical because it has a good message lol ur whats wrong with music
*****
Its relevant to the discussion and called an example. Adios back to rock music for you

*than. And doubt it white boy. U listen to it barely. I live it. U prob cant even tell me the 4 elements of hip hop without looking it uo.
People fail to realize that Jiggaman is so crafty and cunning in his lyrics, he could be hardcore without being aggressive and he's slick with it , so in 2002/2003 i won't question how did he got Beyonce .
Still he's not anywhere near Nas lyrically
He put Pac over hov lyrically? Foh.
The Black Album is a piece of work that Papoose could NEVER fuck with. He might be a pure spitter, but he can't make songs like Jay Z. Jay has a way with words and he can spit. This nigga salty for not saying Hov isn't a lyricist. As of late he's right, but to count him out is just stupid.
I totally agree
Pap is niceeeeeee hands down, but when niggas start claiming their nicer than what they actually are, it makes em look wack. Example above. jay wa the wrong example, yes he is commercial but his lyrics are top tier when he goes in
no jayz lyrics are basic compared to pap . jay is more commercial and relaxed . you are not going to the dictionary trying to deciphers jayz lyrics. his shit is for basic niggas that like money cars and success. its cool but you don't learn anything from it . pap could teach jayz a thing or two about lyricism
ryanr20091 yea you did frm reasonable doubt up to the 2nd blueprint jay was way better then pap but pap is nice but it dnt matter cause EM better then both of em and PUN is too
I think its something else to what he's saying. You just don't name drop all these other MC's and leave him out and call him just "ok" for nothing. Plus they're from the same borough so its weird on many levels.
Ross Boss yea dat nigga hatin he always throwin salt on somebody frfr he prolly doin this for attention
Nekko Miller and he know's who to mention to get it. There's no reason for this nigga to even be on Vlad TV without saying Jay's name. Smart Move Pap... you ain't gon get no money behind it, but still. Nigga can't even outrap his wife lol
bra u use the same flow since alphabetic slaughter. you wrote 567 rhymes to one beat...
The Definition of being FREE....TALK YOUR TALK BRO!!! most people are scared to say that about Jay
Jay Z is not on the level of Vanilla Ice lyrically. He sucks and always has. Papoose is a beast and always has been.
Saying his worse than Vanilla Ice is just reaching. Jay-Z's newer stuff may not be that great, but he was a beast in his prime. Jay-Z did not always suck and he proves it on his albums like Reasonable Doubt, In My Lifetime, Vol.1, The Blueprint, half of The Blueprint 2, The Black Album, American Gangster, etc. Vanilla Ice has never made a song as good as Meet the Parents, D'Evils, Regrets, Can I Live, No Hook, Renegade, 99 Problems, and Where I'm From just to name a few. Whether you like him or not is your opinion, but you can't possibly say that Jay-Z sucks if you heard any of these songs. Papoose is nice and arguably better than Jay-Z lyrically, but he can't write a song to save his life.
Dude I have heard many of the songs you mention and am not feeling ANY of them except 99 Problems and that is due to the Rick Rubin track behind him. I remember when Jay Z was beefing with Nas and looking like the sellout tool that he is. Fuck Jay Z and everyone down with him.
Yes, Ether was a great diss, but it was mostly insults. Jay-Z hit him with facts on Takeover. While I didn't agree with some of his points and I do think Nas is better overall, you could tell he took his time with it and wanted to hit Nas where it hurt and it only took one verse. If you're not a fan, that's fine but to say someone's untalented is less subjective.
Jay Z needs to retire to some island and never be heard from again. He is a clown of the highest order and got lucky to come out at the time he did. If he was just coming out now I am sure he would mimic some wack ass crap like Drake and get just as famous.
It wasn't just luck. Sure, his music recently has been subpar to his standards and it seems like he hasn't been putting much effort, but that wasn't the case when he was in his prime. The reason he blew up was because he had the perfect balance. He was a great lyricist and a great songwriter and those two sometimes don't mesh very well.
Maybe Jay has fallen off in recent years but you can't deny he had the longest run of putting out quality lyrical music of any rapper. Everything from Reasonable doubt to The Black album was crack, we are talking about 8 albums in a row where he was at his lyrical best, no other rapper can make that claim hell even Eminem fell off after his 4th album, it's ridiculous for Papoose to even compare himself to Jay no matter how good he thinks he is, i mean Pap is the same guy who said "stop living in denial/ the nile is a river in Egypt", you need more people Pap
lol he gives jay his props but he was asked this question in 2014. papoose knows he can say this because jayz has rapped about how he has dumb down his lyrics purposely on the black album "I dumbed down for my audience to double my dollars/ They criticized me for it, yet they all yell "holla"".. holla holla came out in 98-99 bruh. idk why people feel a way about this when all you can do it compare magna carta to nacirema dream
Being lyrical does not mean you can make better music then the next person or your better then them
I've been listening to BDK for the past 17 years and I still haven't found anyone else worth listening to.
Dam it's like that? Rakim, G rap, krs one?
Black thought big L Sean p....
Lol a little exaggerated on my end. Love g rap, masta ace, gravediggaz, anything from the golden era is good in my books.
U don't think Crooked I, King Iso, Eminem or Kendrick Lamar worth listening to?
@@jameshamilton5947 lol compared to BDK? cmon man 😆 😆🤣😂
Papoose is a fuckin legend, so is Jay. Big L's influence is strong on Papoose just like Biggie's is strong on Jay.
+John Smith What about Big L's influence on Jay?
I don't hear it.
Nas only ever had 2 god albums in his whole career. NO doubt he is a legend and his rhyming ability is far superior to Jay but Jay is a more successful and more wealthy person. Nas lost me by the third album.
But you can't say Jay doesn't have skills, even if you don't like the guy. Honestly I think Illmatic is on another level to everything Jay did, but if you stack up every other Nas album against any Jay album except Life and Times Vol 1, Jay's gonna win. Let's not forget that Nas took a lot from Tragedy too. Overall, Live at the BBQ, Nas's verse tops anything he ever did since and anything Jay ever did period.
I agree. Just wish he never put out Oochie Wally lol
Papoose is one of the corniest, most arrogant, most irrelevant rappers out there he's like a neighborhood basketball player that swears to people he could have made it in the NBA.
True
you can't talk about Pap, in the same sentence as irrelevant all you white boys use the same word to keep Pap out the game fuck that what you doing for the game? Exactly let's see your bars fuck up all you got is corny metaphor's talking about NBA lmfao ya boyfriend flexin in yo profile pic homie don't talk slick Slim thug.
Gabriel Melero There was a time when Pap mattered. Then he decided to take 6 or 7 years to make his debut.
What bars have I got? Does it matter? First hand experience is not a prerequisite for criticism. Objectivity is often helpful in forming an unbiased opinion. But him saying he's better than Jay? Not even a comparison. Jay destroys Pap.
I made a comparison as well, not a metaphor.
Joe Pickford his girl was sent to the pen and he focused on her you don't have a heart or ears do you.
Gabriel Melero Yeah, I didn't say he shouldn't have done that, but don't come back claiming you're the best when you've put nothing of quality out for over half a decade.
Plus the album hw's been working on "for his entire life" (he said that about Nacirema Dream) was a "mehh" project.
Nas's Mom's died and he put out God's Son AND The Lost Tapes in that year.
I never heard pap spit other dude’s lyrics. Jay the Cookie Monster when it comes to biting people shit
If you haven’t, listen to Cams diss to Jay where he plays Big L and then J. J took so much from Big L.
Not the diss on Killa season.
Facts
Lyrically he is. Em is better than Jay lyrically also. Jay is better at everything else though. Jay survived every modern era of hip hop. If all 3 artist dropped an album right now, in the twilight of their careers, we listening to Hov first and that's a fact!
I think Papoose is definitely more lyrical than Jay Z. Alphabetical Slaughter can never be done again. But I do not think Papoose is the best. I think off top Eminem is better than Papoose.
What a piece of shit comment. Look up my song "1 in a million" and tell me I can't rap. I'm sure you will say it anyway but it would just be bullshit.
Name someone who did Alphabetical slaughter front and back, using as many words from each letter of the alphabet .. Don't worry. I'll wait.
It's sickening to me that Caine Able comments is actually getting likes. A blunt racist comment about me knowing nothing about rap because I am white. Guess who pretty much put LL Cool J on?? THE BEASTIE BOYS! A lot of my friends are black, I hate racism! Ignorant people bitch and complain about whites and how we are all supposedly racist, but it's okay for blacks to be racist against us. I have Spanish and black cousins and uncles. My sister is white and only dates blacks and I could care less. Man I hate racism ... So sickening! -_-
Caine Able
I actually know Josh Poor's music. He has earned quite the fan base even though he's white. He's been acknowledged by some big named rappers, and he does it all independent, no money invested, no management. He's a good dude, unlike you who judged him solely on his skin color. Grow up man.
Josh Poor you are 100% right my brother, and I'm black.
I like Papoose, but I don't know what "facts" he keeps referring to. "Facts" according to who? It's his opinion that he is better than JAY Z lyrically. He needs to define what "better" means though.
very true
he means in terms of technical ability. I totally agree with him on that. There isn't a lot of rappers who can fuck with pap lyrically. Jayz just has an incredible body of work and classics for days, which is why i would put him way above papoose. But lyrically pap got it.
That's a good explanation. However, is JAY Z not on Papoose's technical level because he can't be, or because he doesn't want to be. JAY Z loves power and money, so flowing the way Papoose does isn't going to give JAY what he ultimately wants. JAY is every bit as lyrical as Pap, but at this point, JAY Z just doesn't care to be overly technical. All he wants to do is make good songs that a ton of people will like. It's a business strategy.
Personally, I think Papoose is ill, but just because he can flow doesn't mean he can make great songs. I totally get what you're saying though.
J The ENTJ Jayz is lyrically gifted to. Resonbale doubt, the black album and the blueprint show how crazy his flow is. But technically i still couldn't put him ahead of pap. IMO pap would be in a catagory with guys like eminem, bigpun, canibus(in his prime).....you know, the lyrical assassin types. But i think jay is still better overall. alot better.
philly nation Jay-z shit
Jadakiss can handle papoose lyrically
I agree with Papoose 100 %. And his list of incredible Lyricist is on point!!! I agree with him as well. I would also add Big Bun and BIG L on that list.
He only forgot Rakim and MF DOOM. Big L is top 5 lyricist point blank period.
While Hov sits on his millions with his beautiful wife and 3 classic albums that he created, he'll be on his Avirex inspired Pelle Pell struggle for the next 10 years with Remy Ma as we laugh at his immeasurable number of struggle bars.
Stay classy, Pap.
Jay z is the GOAT fuck u haters
***** And that album was complete garbage. He really thinks he's the next big thing out of Brooklyn, and really has his head so far up his own ass to acknowledge the city and rap as a whole has moved past him. He's as terrible a rapper as Soulja Boy to me, because he's actually TRYING and still has shitty lyrics.
***** LOL Where I'm From is a better song than Papoose's entire career.
Srednja Bosna yep you got me!
No direct disrespect to Jigga but until Jay Z drops a song like Alphabetical slaughter...THEN we can talk -_-
he probably got that idea from v for vendetta lol
LMFAO What a joke?
No disrespect to Pap, but until he has a legacy and level of relevance, song-writing skills, consistency, production value, and great albums, singles, and countless quotables like Jay does...Then what's the point of being super lyrical when you're not the superior comprehensive artist??? Jay'z got lyricism he just doesn't go all out and his focus is on being quotable...a Emcee is for Master of Ceremonies, it focuses on moving the crowd and if Jay Z can do it while rapping simply and he's still using flow, delivery, multi-syllabic rhyiming, punch-line, word play, etc, then I believe in most people's opinion I think Papoose is the one on a loosing battle...
Tyler Scott Jay z has a better marketing team and got a lot of buzz because of BIG. Papoose is clearly the more lyrical rapper, and that's all he was saying.
I know what he means, from a more obvious and conventional perspective when it comes to competitive Emcee lyrics, Pap is more lyrical...But in terms of songwriting, Jay is more lyrical and there is a big difference..Jay is more original even, Pap is way too derivative of Big L....Jay is more quotable, I just mean as a comprehensive and cohesive artist Jay is better in general..I'm not talking about marketing, I'm just talking about music...And marketing wise even Jay is where he's at cause of himself, Dame Dash, and Def Jam after they heard Reasonable Doubt, not anything to do with BIG
Cassidy can give them a run for his money I would love to see papoose and Cassidy Battle
I agree he is more lyrical but albums aren't always about that battle rap is when you make an album it has to be something people understand and can vibe with his music comes off more like a battle rap.
Jay is like ditty.... they usually bite from people in their camp
Theres far more meaning behind Jay's work. Papoose thinks because he can make a song from Z-A that means very little as a whole makes him lyrical- a poet without meaning is almost usleless
check me out Harriet drugman
Harriet Drugman good name lol
Law libraries obituaries 50 shots cancer and aids... he has way more conceptual songs than a-z and z-a
True , cause Jay-Z is more promoted doesn't mean he the best at everything in rap form
Personally i think Jadakiss is a better lyricist than Jay-Z.
See a lot of ppl posting pap is better... but won't buy or support him.. bet they got a jay album
All you dudes saying Jay is not lyrical smh, Alot of Jay's bars are going over your heads (including Papoose). Lyricism is not all punchlines.
Pat Kenny His lyrics went over your head.....
He was lyrical in the past, but Pap is a lot more consistent, especially nowadays where Jay has basically appropriated that bullshit swag rap flow that every fly by night mc jocks on Hot 97 or whatever...Jay has nothing of value to say these days, and with the way he raps it is clear he is trying to appeal to the latest, wackest trends
Pap is more consistent in being trash lol
I can name like 20 or 30 rappers better than Jay Z
YOU A CLOWN
"I get more textes than Houston" - Papoose...yea those are prolific struggle bars
Papoose is definitely a superior MC; however his over confidence keeps him from polishing up the areas that he needs work in. Jay-Z is the best, not because he the best lyricist, but because he knows how to translate his well balance of skills into success. Something Papoose has yet to do.
As a big fan of Tupac, considering him one of the goats w/ major respect for his catalog and contributions to hip hop; to say that his lyrical depth is deeper then Jay Z is shade. All of the goats do something diff. for me, with pac it was his energy passion and emotion mixed with poetry. He never spit bars that I had to research, replay multiple times to comprehend or make the twisted face you do when hearing flawless lyricism. I get that with Jay (Old Jay at least). Jay and Big styles were very similar as well as Big Daddy Kane who they were both influenced by. So to put Kane n Big on the list as well as Pac and no Jay is shade to me, but everyone entitled to opinions.
thats so well said
Hey Rod, you bring up some good points and I do agree with much of what you said. However, I think you can expand the category of lyrical depth a bit, and include Pac's poetic influence/style. While I agree that a lot of that was related to his passion and emotion, he also used sophisticated English techniques that many poets use. Things like Alliteration are constantly being used and although the lyrics are simplistic and don't make you rewind, the delivery is carefully crafted. "Picture Perfection Pursuing Paper with a Passion...". I'm not really a big poetry or English fan but I do appreciate the artistry that he approached many of his songs with. I'm not saying other artists don't have poetic style (Papoose surely does) but their songs likely aren't as packed with it, as Pac's were. I just thought I'd contribute that food for thought, as I think 2Pac is overrated on many levels but underrated in lyricism, considering many of his songs could be read as poems. "If I die tonight" by 2Pac is a great example of what I mentioned, very simple song but full of substance. One love all, peace.
PullYourBowl1 Agreed 100%. I just gave a few examples, I didn't go in depth of all the categories Pacs craft covered; but much respect for your input.
jay z is wack .
makaveli the don livessssssss
This nigga said Tupac is lyrical but Jay Z not lyrical.. smh Im done 🙄😂
papoose is indeed better than Jay. Jay is only a good business man not a good artist
With all due respect Jay Z makes better songs but that nigga pap has better punch lines and bars but Papoose can't make a decent club song for his life lol that why he hasn't blown up on a bigger stage but he's an underground mixtape legend
228allday Hip Hop wasn't created to make club hits.
Bryan H. I know but if you want to blow up you need to make a couple of club bangers or really good songs for the radio
228allday Pap doesn't wanna sell out. He's a lyricist and that's what he's gonna stay true to. He's already pretty successful and has too much pride in his craft to dumb his lyrics/flow just to be on radio rotation
Why don't these rappers just do both....come out wit da the dumbed down club records n come out with lyrical songs...that's wat I'd do...if I was pap, I'd keep barreling, come out wit lyrical freestyles but I'd throw some pop shit just to stay relevant too
Tamir Brown / ( NO disrespect) that is pretty much what he himself ( Pap' ) stated. he said on other stuff like what you stated , that Jay-Z blows him out the water, but that he blows Jay-Z out the water "lyrically" . I'm not going to give my opinion, but that's what P said.
Jay-Z has numerous verses that will smash Pap's whole catalogue. He is a one-dimensional act, and cannot entertain for shyt. I can list about 10 emcees off top that he cannot hold a candle to (excluding JAY from the list)
Jay-Z, lupe fiasco, eminem, Kanye, jadakiss, Andre 3k, Royce da 5'9, lowkey, professor green, tech nine, hopsin, I could actually keep going....even pap named some Kane, kool g rap.....
Apathy, chamillionaire, wale, q-tip, j.cole, Cassidy, fabulous, Jarren Benton, big pun the list goes on and on....
Any song from the album Reasonable Doubt
@@BronzDano lol at listing apathy c'mon man 😆 🤣 😂
Jay Z stole bars and developed his persona based on what the trend was. He rode waves. And his lyrics are ok. He has some good stuff, but he isn’t nowhere near people put him.
Saying a bunch of syllables doesn't make you a better emcee..Hov is does entendres and codes his wording which makes him more clever than pap...jay also is better at concepts and creating timeless music....pap has technical ability but that's not all there is to an emcee or artist
Pap will get embarrassed ... and Jadakiss is better than them
Both lyrically
This is debate .... pap has flow, and word play but outside that jay has everything else including lyricism..
True.
jay z has flow and word play and papoose mos def has lyricism
Jay most overrated ever. Kane, Rakim, Pun, Nas, Eminem, Guru, 2Pac, Scarface, Big L, Ludacris, AZ, DMX, Sticky, Slick Rick, Chino are all better than Jay-Z and Papoose.
Thank You!!! AZ gets soo overlooked but his catalog makes him one of the GOATS.
... don't forget about Masta Ace. He's 100 times nicer then Jay-Z and he's from Brooklyn too
Michał Kot True that. I just named a few on top of my head. There's more than my list that deserve more credit than Jay and Pap.
i was with you chicken until you said luda lol....jayz smashes luda but i agree with all of the others...ludas very wack to me and dmx probably aint a better mc then jayz either...dmx has made alotta bad tracks and albums
Dirklewinsky1 Luda has crazy voice control and has very nice flows. Also he can be original with the rhymes and lines. DMX is without a doubt 10x the mc Jay will ever be. How old were you when "It's Dark and Hell is Hot" came out?
Tupac, Biggie and Big Daddy Kane is lyrical but jay z is not? You lost me with that one pap
Remy don't even think Pap better than Jay lyrically
The funniest part is that Jay is Remy's favorite rapper..this nigga just might be jealous 😂😂
BINGO! !!
Its a shame when your wife doesn't list you as her favorite rapper.
+Juan Boss it sure is
🤔
Juan Boss sense when is telling the truth about shameful thing my man. She was acting like Future said "I'm just being honest " Let me pose this question n we can quit giving this bottom of the barrel Mc attention, cause this the most attention this nigga has ever gotten! Ask 20 people u know n some u don't or ask 20 of both there top 20 mcs right now and of all-time n I guarantee you nobody will say him! Perhaps out of each 20 1possibly 2. But if you get anymore than that, pinch ur self, ur in a bad dream! Lol
Facts, your career isn't on Riff Raffs level.
shut your dum ass up and never speak on rap again..Thanks
Trizzy Tre did I say something that wasn't true? Aint nobody listening to Papoose. That nigga career died with them Gino Green Global tees he used to wear.
kingvenomousg Pap isnt at home trying to be broke for the love. Get the fuck out of here with that shit,
Ya'll still arguing over this shit? You claim to be this great lyricist and you been around for like 15 years and still nobody wants to hear your shit.......you trash bruh lmfaooo. Why is this even up for debate?
Fuck a riff raff, he a gimmick.
papoose is right!! Jay can't hold a flame to him!! Papoose got mad crazy bars like no one else in the game.
Papoose is being truthful here, you should never fear to express your feelings & how you see things
Smh...I wouldn't even disagree that Jay Z isn't the best lyrically, but Papoose gotta be on that blue magic to believe that HE is! He must be trying to spark some major attention with this angle. I'm not knocking anyone for being confident in the artwork they produce, but be realistic at the same time or u will lose credibility. People gone think ur off ur meds, son...he must be missing his rib Remy so much that it's got him talking all crazy. Bless his heart
"that blue magic" LOL
That's a funny comment Fefe. Remy Ma is better than Pap. Well when she comes home we'll see how she do.
U a dumb bitch huh
Pap will out spit jay.
Cedric Parker stay out of it
no one gives a shit jayz is ovarall better
Watch your mouth.
@@jovand9250 Lmaooo based off what?
On a business level, Jay Z is that dude. If more bros & sisters were as business oriented as he, OMGsh. However Papoose is a fkn beast when it comes to the mic. And im not a crazy poose fan but you gotta give credit where credit is due. And his bars aint all about loot and chix. This bwoy is a monster!!!! Lets see how many other MC's ( and there a ton of
em that are fiyah) respond to this brutha. I doubt it.......
i agree 💯 papoose IS lyrically better then Jay i 💖 j but pap is better hands down in my opinion
Dee Dee Tray reasonable doubt jay z>>>pap
Papoose is lyrically better than Jay-Z if you're talking about bars. Cuz Pap got a lotta punchlines and wordplay and what not. BUT that being said, Jay-Z makes better songs. And that's whats more important at the end of the day. i'm not even a fan the modern day jay-z, but when you look at his discography there's banger after banger. In other words, if you put a CD together of Jay-Z's greatest hits, and another CD with Papoose's greatest hits, which one would you stick with you more?... For me, Jay-Z hands down.
I agree jay is not on papooses level
if u listen to pap, u could hear that he got a lil influence from half-a-mil with the high pitch flow.
whoo else th-cam.com/video/EajbW4Z0hs4/w-d-xo.html
Papoose absolutely knows what he's talking about. Even his examples of better lyricists (other than 2pac) Every single thing he said is true there should be nothing controversial. He's talking lyrics and everyone trying to reply saying he's wrong or crazy bring up other factors besides lyrics.
Jay z is the double entendre king...
You can hear a song twice and catch so many different meanings each time.
Pap, hes more of a back pack rapper.
He nasty with the freestyles
But the rhyme is very basic. Nothing deep
Both are good. Jay z is just great
Speaking purely lyrically Papoose can hold his own with ANYBODY, including Jay.
Hell Bienie Siegel is better than Jay Z lyrically.
Even Jay admits he's not the best lyrically. "Truthfully I wanna rhyme like Common Sense."
