All Times arguments in Music are 10x worse than all time arguments in Sports.
In both cases...no one actually means "all time". They just really mean in THEIR time

Ross isn't top five or ten
but if you were to say he was A&Ring Nas album I would be more excited to hear it than Kanye in 2018
You know what you're going to get with Ross and he's consistent as hell.
He's Frank Gore.

I remember when Nike Boots dropped, I made a thread asking if anyone had another version cause I couldn’t listen to clown *** Wale. He immediately responded, I didn’t even know he was on NT and someone had to tell me that was Wale.
Ross ain’t top ten in his own era

I was trying to avoid admitting it but some of them YBN kids actually got some tracks. Not this one tho.

I disagree, people questioned Wale and Cole in the beginning. That's why it's funny for people to speak on Cole as if he's some elite rapper. At first people thought Jay-Z didn't even want to claim him and take pics with him. Wale got questioned also. And the pop sort of sell out GaGa song didn't help.
Who is talented to you? What makes Cole more talented? Cole is a better story teller, but he's a average to below average producer. You can tell that by nobody is kicking in his door for him to produce their projects.
Yeah, it's trolling. On his pod he said he just talked to Wale. And he didn't even talk about label ****.
Wale and Big Sean not that talented? Do ya hear some of the *****s ya champion in here everyday?! Come on son.
Yeah, with all this mumble and dudes who sound the same I wonder who do they consider talented.

Is Ross better than Cam?
Yes, way better albums, career, and everything. Another old head might not admit though
Another thing, 50 cent didn't rearrange MMG the same way he rearranged dipset

50 had nothing to do with Dip Set. Cam, Juelz and Jim already had problems.
And Ross is over 40 and has been out for almost 15 years. He might be older than Cam. Like Ross is some new school rapper or something.

Yeah but we know some nostalgia Cam stans will act like the thought of Ross being better is crazy. Ross is a better rapper and got a way better catalog.

I'm taking diplomatic immunity, diplomats volume 1, and come home with me 1,2,3 if we're lining up material from both. Rozay the better rapper and has a better solo career but what Killa did in his prime with the dips very few can compare

Exhibit A
Nah but in all seriousness just how big was Wale supposed to be exactly? He was top 8 most of his career when it came to mainstream hip-hop and been top 3 or 4 on same stage in terms of lyricism. Far from perfect but I can understand why he would be upset since he's actually one of the rappers who tried his hardest to give fans what they want.
- He tried to be on some traditional hip-hop **** on his first album for the most part but his album (in his eyes anyway) flopped
- Then he went to MMG (Wasn't a fan of the move myself but I didn't hate him for it) and got major radio real estate (think Ambition went gold), but fans hated it and said they missed the old stuff (wonder where they were when the first one came out)
- Seems like everybody's getting a shoe deal but one of the guys whose genuinely been into kicks most of his life (even worked at a DTLR)
- Publications were calling To Pimp A Butterfly the "new black soul" album and landmark moment in music, he's been preaching that **** since Back To The Feature with 9th Wonder
- Then the African inspired music has a brief surge in the US, yet when he uses it on his recent album people hated it and called him a biter (Even though he made songs like that before he even signed to MMG and is African himself)

I didn't say he was untalented. He's just an average, middle of the pack talent in the game. Nothing wrong with that. I personally don't see the Wale greatness.
If you think he's a poet laureate or that he's an elite talent in the game, well just have to agree to disagree

Plus the Dips started the modern day mixtape movement, not 50.
I'm taking Diplomatic Immunity over anything Ross has done, but I would rather listen to a solo Ross album the a solo Cam album.

Ross got 10+ straight years of consistency. 50 Cent faded... 50s reign was 6 years, 2002-2008.
Ross outlasted him. Ross is a top 10 Southern emcee. Mans aged like fine wine.
My only issue with Ross is, he should’ve cut the OG Freeway Ricky Ross a check. Other than that, Ross is upper echelon.
