Both popular to the mainstream, both sold a lotta records, both are limited in content, both from the 90's era but who is the better Rapper?

    Big Willie Style is Will Smith's best Album


    Reasonable Doubt is Jay Z best Album


    Big Willie Style IMO is the better all round Album

    What i like about a lotta Gangsta Rappers is they may speak on the negatives but will always have some slightly deeper tracks like 'Tears Of Joy' by Rozay for example

    I would rather listen to Gangsta Rap than Horrorcore a Gangsta is smarter than a serial killer

    Maybe you werent raised around street people

    I am listening to And in This Corner... as I'm writing this and as much as I am supportive of Will Smith as a rapper, he's not better than Jay-Z. There's a reason one appears in top 10 lists a lot and the other don't. Will Smith is more fun than Jay-Z, though.

    Lol @ "Big Willie Style is Will Smith's best". Go check out his albums with DJ Jazzy Jeff, much better and classic stuff.

    I dont listen to horrorcore for the most part, i dont why you think i do...
    thing is though eminem is your fave and he is more horrorcore (or was) than gangsta for sure
    you trying to tell me that the SSLP horrorcore themes werent smart or clever, but Waka Flockas gangsta ? is?

    and no i wanst raised around street people, but most of the people in the proper hoods are trying to get away from that ? , not glorify it
    all the biggest fans of gangsta rap tend to be nerdy white kids shouting slang over the internet.
    hell just look at 50 cents fan base.


    seriously youve changed a lot, someone with so much knowledge on hip hop shouldnt be saying ignorant ? like that

    Depends on what type of gangsta rap you talk about. Fans of 90s legends like Geto Boys and Spice 1 tend to be much more respectable than the teenage "nerdy white kid" that only knows what's mainstream (G-Unit and half of the current southern rap).

    Album wise Will Smith is better with out question pretty much every Will Smith Album is dope from start to finish


    While Reasonable Doubt is Jay Z's best Album and considered classic by some The Blueprint and The Black Album are solid the rest of his Album's are forgetable
