      You mean biased apple, spotify considered his albums as best hip hop rap there are dope albums better than those illmatic is one of them. This has nothing to do with albums, views, impact we are talking about Lyrically your fav rapper is nothing Lyrically compared to stogie i can play Stogie on the same list with Nas, Jay z and Big L not Kendrick.

      Listen, we are grateful that institutions are beginning to acknowledge hip hop as a form of writing. However make no mistake: This moment is not a reflection of who greatest rappers of hip hop are, rappers whom kendrick listened to (like Tupac) and with a far more superior lyricism than kendrick. Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Nas etc. If pulitzer was an indication of who's the greatest, then all are deserving in their own right.

    Jay Z, Lupe fiasco and Stogie T don't have the artist ability Kendrick does. Like in terms of conceptually crafting an album. That’s something I’m into as a rap nerd. I like concepts and seeing them fleshed out. Kendrick has that down better than any rapper. Lyrically yes Lupe is a Beast.. But Kendrick edges Jay Z lyrically...Stogie T sounds like a bitter MC who never made it

    Stogie is a top-tier lyricist and 🐐in 🇿🇦. I don’t use the GOAT term loosely like every Tom dick and Harry. His skills are on par with lyricists you'd find on a 🇺🇸 top 50 list if there ever was one. Excluding sales, reach, popularity etc but only focusing on lyrical ability. Just my subjective opinion.

      that Kendrick lamar did on GKMC not special? Can Stogie T storytell as good as Kendrick lamar ?
      Can he flow as good as Kendrick lamar on the beat ?
      Does he have the lyrical range that Kendrick lamar has when it comes to using different flows ?
      I'm not saying Kendrick lamar is better than stogie T I'm just pointing out Stogies biases cause what makes a lyricist is not complex lyricism only it is a lot of thing and some are good at using some aspect of lyricism and other are good at using other aspects of lyricism and that's that It's Ok to have to goats in rap which are goats in their own way

    1) If your understanding of rap music starts when Kendrick, Drake & Cole are the big 3 in hip hop, I don't believe you can have an informed opinion on this subject. 2) If your understanding of diss records started with Kendrick vs Drake, again you cannot have a valid opinion on the topic. 3) If you are not a hip hop fan/listener outside of the club and this moment, again you cannot have a valid opinion on this matter. 4) I see a lot of kendrick fans and not enough fans of hip hop in general 5) S/o Stogie T, those questioning his lyricism should really go and listen to the albums he did as Tumi & The Volume >>>
