Better in their PRIME? DMX, JAY-Z or NAS?

[krazyrodzilla]

Who do you think was better in their PRIME?

DMX, JAY-Z or NAS?

 

[allen3xis]

Jay Z
Nas





DMX




As I've said before, tracks 1-8 on RD is perfection, imo

 

[starvin harlem]

Illmatic is the BEST hip hop album ever created . . . So the decision is quite easy.

 

[harlemtothebronx]

DMX?

It's Nas, in my opinion.

 

[the big homey]

Jay-Z

easily

 

[king jay xi]

NaS in his prime is the greatest rapper of all time.

 

[rudygay22uconn]

jay-Z is the best IMO. but in his prime DMX had a way bigger following than any of the other 2.

yea during the time he dropped "It's Dark & Hell Is hot" his movement was stupid strong...kinda like 50 during "get rich or dietrying" in early 2003.

 

[allen3xis]

I kinda take Prime as being at their best...

Illmatic is the best album of all time, but...

you give me Jay Z at his absolute best, and Nas at his absolute best...

I'm taking Jay

[MON5T3R]

Nas.

 

[nyvictory45]

Nas of course.

 

[true 3 blue]

[Uncle Murda] Jigga Jay Zay [/Uncle Murda]

 

[the natural mystic]

Nas and this shouldn't be close

 

[atransta]

^ cosign... then jay and i would take Prodigy in his prime over X

 

[awon23]

Nas without question.

 

[illscan]

Nasir Jones

 

[putting in work]

I don't know.

Everyone's prime time could differ.

I only like select cut's from all of these dudes, but NaS, DMX, and Jay-Z put out some good music on some of their albums and mixtapes that I bump on theregular on my iPod.

But, I was never like a fan of any of them like that like how I am a Biggie fan.

They each have their goods and bads.

 

[colorway]

DMX had a a large following but that doesn't necessarily mean that he was the best in his prime.


Imo Jay was the best of the three in their prime. Not to take anything away from Esco cause I'm an avid listner but I just think Jay is better overall.
