Well in all honesty and seriously without my preferance to the man I think Face wins hands down. Why?

You would be hard pressed to find anyone to rank his official solo albums lower than a 4.0 and if we include Geto Boys (do we Terry?) its a rap. The man dropped his 1st solo in like 91 and just dropped one in 2008 and all are a 4.0 or above easily. Who's fuckin with that? I know some will oppose/down play this just because he's my number one but seriously think about it.

Yeah, the GB albums should count IMO. I also co-sign Scarface. It could be argued that Face hasn't reached the same highs as others, but his consistency and longevity are second to none.

Thats a good point about his highs and I think that is what most judge him by instead of consistant quality. He has never had a album that is held in such high regards as It Takes A Million, Chronic, or Illmatic but that should add to his strengths because instead of having one album that stands out like that he has several.

Yeah, I could remove Face's most popular album or his most respected album, and his discog looks just as strong. If i were to remove Illmatic from Nas' discog, it would severely sway the perception of Nas. Obviously that can't happen. Nas did in fact release Illmatic, and it is in fact a classic so my point is somewhat irrelevant. I would hope my point would not be ignored though.

Scarface is a strong pick. Personal preference, I gotta go with Red. Even if you don't agree that his discography is the best, it is pretty strong.

I think Pac's first five should be considered without the posthumous garbage. He also ranks pretty high.

2Pac the GOAT, and posthumous garbage? R U Still Down, Makaveli, Greatest Hits, Still I Rise, Better Dayz (mostly), Until the End of Time are all classics.

I can see him in the top 3 for most consistant but overall quality of discog maybe top 10. All his albums imo do not rank 4.0 or higher. He has dropped some questionable albums.

Pac is a contender but he is another that has that one or two major albums that most consider classic. The rest always seem to just play a background role.

Redman is a good pick but Malpractice and Gone Wild were not on point with his 1st four.

I'm saying Pac has 3 albums that most will say is classic, the others no one talks about much at all. Face really has no albums that a "majority" or wide range of listeners talks about all the time, but his whole discog is priased as a collective.

The Roots. KRS-One is great, but half his albums are average. Scarface is consistent, but I don't think there's a whole lot of variety in his catalog. The Roots have evolved with every album, and yet maintained a consistently high level. They have 2 or 3 classics, which is on par with other people in this discussion.

For solo artists, I agree with you. Although The Sneak Attack and Turn Right were sub-par albums.

Nevertheless, no solo rapper has quite the discog that KRS has.

For groups I'll go with The Roots. Out of 7 albums, 3 of them are classics and the others are at least 4 stars.

Are you sure Face doesn't have 6 or 7 classics? I know you're not feeling the Geto Boys like that, but Face has arguably just as many classics if we include the Geto Boys albums. I persoanlly think KRS and Face havew about the same number of classics. KRS has the best album between the two, but Face hasn't had as drastic of a drop off as KRS did either. they are #1 and #2 on my all time list for a reason so i'm not mad at the KRS choice at all, but i think you're selling Face short.

That may be true, but i'm just trying to speak from a consensus point of view. I would never throw Face's Untouchable out there as one of his classics even though i think it is. You know what i mean?

KRS has way too many so so albums I think... most old school vets have tarnished their discog with so so albums. Pac is strong - but I laughed at the mention of the greatest hits in a discog.

Face is a strong pick. Gang Starr, Outkast, Jay Z, and Biggie should be thrown in the mix - I kid about biggie - my pick is K-Rino though, rather predictably - but if you look at the volume of his releases and the lyrical quality album after album - there is really no repetitive shit in there - the only slight knock is production - but I don't think the man has a wack album and certainly nothing under 4 IMO. and he has more albums than Face too.

Scarface as a solo artist has 3 classics IMO and he has ALWAYS been a strong solo artist but he can't see the teacha with this thread either..as far as the "big" drop-off from Kris I mean he may not be spitting like he was in 1988 but Survival Skills which was released this year shows me he's still got it man...

Terry does have a valid point, Face does have the same amount of consensus classics as KRS (4 each).

That being said, I feel that KRS has more personal classics, so I give him the edge. Face's discog is definitely among the best though.

I know you feel the need to defend Pac with crazy statements like the one above but if you truly believe that your mind is playing tricks on you.

I know Face is your GOAT Kev but KRS's first four albums match up with ANY of Face's albums, solo OR group.

I'd also say that Criminal Minded is the best album between them both.

Not true...he could not go plat with the albums he did including Geto Boys just selling in the south or being local. You do not win lyricists of the year being local, you do not be included in almost every greatest rapper list ever being local. Face is not the most marketable rapper and you know that, that is why he does not sell like the cats you mentioned. You are really strecthing lies to support your debate.

Of course you would say that....but like Steve is trying to say about Face if you come south of that mason dixie and go more to the west I bet more jokers hold one of Face or Geto Boy albums higher than Criminal Minded. I think you and Powell are getting quanity and quality mixed up. Too Short has just as many albums as KRS but he loses in overall quality. No one has praised a KRS album truly since his self titled solo album.

SRP Rino is a very interesting pick but like you mentioned his production knoks him out this race imo. Now to me he has progressed more than a lot of ole school emcees lyric wise and I argee none of his albums are weak but me and you dig his sound.

Remember Steve Pac is one of my fav's so you are not talikin to no lame or casual fan I know my Pac. Most of his sells came after he died and when he was locked up. I did not say Pac did not sell records I said you do not hear folks big up his albums like those 3.

Of course his 3 main albums will get the most press, I mean you saying face doesnt have albums that get more coverage than others? Take away 3 of face's best albums and show me what you have left man.

And sales = talking about man. Regardless of artistic merit or quality, selling a mili of anything means dudes was talkin bout it (the artist as well)

so...why aint homeboy sold? good mob sold for underground, ALL no limit sold, outkast sold, UGK sold, Wayne sold Jeezy sold, Luda sold, TI sold...why aint face sold? like i said, you talk about local (let me say no beef intended on this man), but face is the DEFINITION of a local legend.

Face DID sell, all but about one or two of his albums have went gold or platinum.

Neither UGK nor Jeezy has sold as much as Face. Those other cats you mentioned sold more because they released some commercial/radio friendly material whereas Face kept it gangsta.

That said, KRS STILL has the better discography.

I think the use of "classic" here is kind of liberal.

I'm not co-signing this bullshit until Jason shows us where it's being used "liberally"?

I mean no one has yet mentioned that Silver Jews had anything remotely close to anything classic, so show me Jase how it's being used "liberally"???

I mean we are talking about classic albums with both KRS-One and 'Face....both of whom have multiple classic records...not seeing the "liberal use" man....

shut up idiot.

6/10 of his solo albums went gold, and 3/10 went plat.

That is NOT "selling" in face's age, not by a long shot.

so basically, at max, dude has sold what, 7 mil? which is outshone by countless SINGLE albums. so stop that RIGHT there.

Jeezy has sold 3 mil...in today's climate, and when all is said and done, he will easily pass face, no questions asked. so, once again, shut yo bloodclot mouth.

Of course you would say that....but like Steve is trying to say about Face if you come south of that mason dixie and go more to the west I bet more jokers hold one of Face or Geto Boy albums higher than Criminal Minded. I think you and Powell are getting quanity and quality mixed up. Too Short has just as many albums as KRS but he loses in overall quality. No one has praised a KRS album truly since his self titled solo album.

Many KRS albums since his self titled debut have been praised, they just haven't been commercially promoted like his older material was.

I disagree with Steve's statement, as many people from the East Coast (myself included) feel that he is the best Southern MC. Three Stacks is the only other MC that is even mentioned in that convo.

KRS hasn't dropped an album anyone cares about since what dude? 1995, and thats being generous. his discog isnt even CLOSE to the best. 14 years and nothing but dud, or solid album after solid album? bunny please.

Three stacks is the only Southern MC anyone even knows (or cares about) for the most part besides him...what you expect? And you fuckin fat white woman lover, when did I ever insult his status as a legend, or southern legend, or say he wasnt the best southern mc. take your fucking idiotic opinions and shove them up an orcas ass

Why don't you shut me up?? Oh that's right....YOU CAN'T, cuz it's the internet!! Not that you could anyway, but just pointing out the obvious.

Fuck sales anyway though. Jeezy will NEVER be as respected as Scarface. Other than Outkast, nobody from the South is as respected by REAL hip-hop heads as Scarface from Hip-Hop Nation.

You can come at me with insults and talk shit until you're blue in the face, but it won't mean shit cuz I'm speaking the truth.

Please Steven do not tell me that Pac has a better discography than Kris?? your not saying that right?? Also in 1995 he released one of his classic joints the self titled KRS-One...he did so much damage before 1995 that who cares if after that his albums weren't what they were before that?? All of his classics came out before that year man....and those joints KILL your boy Pac again and again...IMO Pac only had one classic drop before his death and that was Me Against The World...thats it....All Eyez On Me "became" a classic after he passed, because it certainly wasn't considered one when he was alive and Makaveli which is his only other classic was released after he passed..so Pac has two IMO..so get that dude outta here against Kris my dude cause that sounds NUTS (no homo)

and who considers KRS' albums classic? new york magazines and some homos in new jersey and CT? I mean, who cares about KRS besides y'all (devil's advocate)? and no, bunny, we talkin DISCOG, not HIGHEST highs....so releasing 13 straight aight to shitty albums is not = best discog.

Well most objective listeners would say that 2Pac only has two consensus classics at best. KRS has four.

Of all KRS' albums, only TWO are considered duds, that's pretty damn impressive considering his huge discog.

As for Pac, people checked for his stuff because he had a lot of posthumous material. Most of it post-Makaveli though was consensusly rated 3.5-4 stars.

KRS beats Pac in terms of discog AND skills IMO.

Kris more than doubling Pac's classic totals EASILY....he's straight killing Pac again

Pac has two legit classics IMO Me Against The World and Makaveli, The Seven Day Theory...THAT'S IT...fuck that steriod shit he released with the fat man...he's got 2 Steve...THAT'S IT!

Pac is over fuckin rated man...he ain't even close to the best to ever do it...are you kidding me?? he's the most emotional, no doubt about that but the GOAT...get the fuck outta here...not lyrically...not through his beats...is he a legend?? YES...but the GOAT..hell no..the best discography?? no even fuckin close man...I could name more than a few who have better: EPMD, Gangstarr, Run-D.M.C., Scarface, KRS-One, A Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, I mean all of these cats are beating Pac discography wise and easily too...

show me where they got those ratings KJ. please, please, please show me. and then go look at the review thread, which you have conveniently ignored.


and yeah, people checked for his albums 11 YEARS after his death because, well, it was there. might as well buy a million copies, right?

Powell, KRS has 3 GOLD albums. No Platinum albums. No Platinum singles. I'm waiting for the "he never sold out baby bubba...NYC NYC NYC LMAO LMAO LMOA GOLDEN AGE" response. But, tell me. Who from then, who was dope, did NOT release a platinum album. Look, look, look...IT WAS KRS! NOBODY feels KRS like a few of you old timers (bunny, KRS sold 8,000 copies, 2pac could shit on your face, which he may have already done, on a mexican street corner and sell that in an hour, 13 years after his death.) You are imagining shit, and trying to make yourself feel better.
