Just my opinion - MA is a snoozefest - even the new Masta Ace is a snoozefest. I'm not sure what else to say that hasn't been said itt. Masta Ace always comes correct but it's always in the same vein.
You can always count on 3 MA songs to cover the following topics, something about the industry being shady, something about the neighborhood changing, and something about the history of hip hop. His skits suck too.
G Rap >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Kool G Rap's best album is Live and Let Die. It was the prequel to Biggie's Ready To Die.

G Raps verses on the Godfathers album alone beat Masta Ace, even if Necro maybe spoils that album a bit, and I don't think G Rap was even trying on this one.

A Long Hot Summer is at least 9/10, classic to me. never cared for disposable arts though My pick is Kool G Rap, catalog wise it's close, with masta ace being more consistent and prolific in the later years (as buck pointed out) but I learn towards the gangster s**t |

If Master Ace never existed, it wouldn’t have made a difference even in the slightest as far as how hip hop advanced and updated. Can’t say the same in regards to Kool G Rap tho. He’s the Godfather. He laid blueprints countless rappers used and followed. I got love for Ace but c’mon son. Ace is one of Eminem’s primary influences. So by proxy he’s had a huge impact on the game from that alone really. Whether that was for good or bad, lol. True story. |

But I don't think those verses alone beat MA whole catalogue, even though what I wrote came across that way. My bad. |

Yeah I don't want to make it sound like I was hating on Masta Ace even though I don't like those two albums that much. If I were going to objectively list the top 25 MCs ever, he would be in there towards the end. Two very different styles when you are talking him and G Rap, musically too to an extent. I think G Rap has him in both categories.

1 G Rap album’s worth 3 Ace albums.
It’s just better rap music. From the beats to the rhymes it’s not even close to me.
And again, Ace don’t have a stone cold classic. Disposable Arts is whatever. It’s cool alright? It’s mad dated tho.
456 is that album that’s still on point. It’ll never sound dated cuz nobody can rap like that. Sht stays in rotation like Cuban Linx and Hell On Earth.

I used to have this tape called Juice Crew All-Stars. I gotta find that sht. It had that one song where the hook was like “JJJJJuice Crew All-Stars! Oh my goodness!”
Masta Ace was on The Symphony with G Rap and Kane. G Rap blew the whole spot up on that song and murdered everybody.

A Long Hot Summer & Disposable Arts are considered classic by many people, maybe not by you but that's where they are at. older stuff he got Born to Roll, Jeep a** Niguh.. but true there's nobody today really playing ace out their car lol i voted for kool g rap but let's not disrespect Ace just cause he's not G Rap went through the thread and did a quick head count, looks like Kool G Rap edged it out. shoulda made this a poll putitonbigl |

i mean that was my opinion but some people voted for ace. some who voted for g rap agreed ace was better in some aspects. saying ace's best album is 7/10 or he has no classics is wild
really, this thread should of been a triple threat. masta vs. kool g vs. you know who (microphone mike)

Da and long hot summer are great, but I always thought take a look around,and slaughter house were better. I'll take ace slightly over g rap tho. Only thing that I don't think is up for debate, is that the juice crew is still the best collective of all time

There’s 1000 rappers better than Masta Ace.
It’s like 3 rappers better than Kool G Rap.
Just in case you’re looking for another angle why.

KGR is royalty. Even though his later releases don't get much love I think alot of them are dope. Once Upon a Time is great, Son of G Rap is great, Half a Klip is close to a modern great to me. I think because he's probably the dopest emcee ever people are disappointed if he drops anything short of a classic.
Masta Ace is a legend but not in the same league.

Even if his classic albums from the 90s didn't happen he'd be up there. With them he is top 3
