    This can't be a serious discussion. Dre has classic verses to classic songs ghostwritten or not. Why even analyze it more than that. He's beyond petty arguments of "better rappers". He's an important music giant, period.

    This by no means is a excuse to argue he's a great lyricist. He didn't write his own ? so he's not in the running. I'm just saying Dre shouldn't be mentioned.

    How is that petty? Not putting him as a goat writer/rapper for not writing his raps sounds pretty legitimate to me.

    If he really did write his rhymes he'd be known for some hot songs & two classics. That along with NWA.. It would definitely add on to an already legendary career.

    I didn't mean it like that. Of course not having him as a goat writer is legit. I just mean it goes without saying. Dre shouldn't be in those discussions at all.

    Nah Dre dont get the props just because he didnt write his own ? .

    Now he just the GOAT producer. He could be much more.

    Me and my 2 homeboys have a hip hop podcast and he proposed this exact question. I told him Dre would be the goat if he actually wrote all his stuff.
