    Default Whos the Iller MC: Nas or Canibus?

    Well, who in your opinion is the better MC out of these two?
    Me personally i think its Nas because i can relate to what says sometimes and his topics has a mad versatility.

    Early Nas >>> Canibus. But now I don't know, to be honest it's been a while since i checked either of these guys work.

    Canibus is more lyrical but Nas is still lyrical yet is more entertaining,(it makes sense to me)

    I can't listen to Canibus for extended periods of time because I feel his stuff can get dull after a while whereas I could listen to Nas for longer without getting bored.

    Nas has better delivery,flow and character on the mic imo.

    So Nas takes it.

    How can the two even be compared when they are so vastly different?

    The one thing they do have in common is that the majority of their albums are poor, and that's coming from a fan of both artists.

    how as a fan of both artist say they album is poor

    i mean there's two Bis album that are weak and or not up 2 snuff but for the most part Hip Hop 4 $ale and C: True Hollywood Stories are more sarcastic albums toward the hip hop culture

    and as far Nas go yeah the Untitled album isn't great production wise but the album overall was banging a modern classic because of his overall topic of choice even the stuff he just did with Damien Marley was fire

    Canibus: C True Hollywood Stories, Hip Hop 4 Sale, Mind Control, Def Con Zero, and even Can-I-Bus, are mediocre to weak albums in my view.

    Nas: I am, Nastradamus, God's Son, Hip Hop is Dead, and Untitled are also weak imo. Streets Disciple could have been much better if it didn't have so many tracks.

    Of course, it is all down to opinion. Even the albums I listed have great tracks on them.

    Definitely a close call.

    Both artists are nice as fuck, but have both released some piss poor albums.

    Talking about albums, Nas has seven platinum ones and two gold ones.

    "The niggas that used to have a nigga a little nervous was like Big, Pac....even Canibus" - Nas

    I would say bar-for-bar Canibus is the better lyricist but the music he makes is very one-dimensional. Nas has proven he's one of the GOATs in almost every area of rhymin, whether it be story-telling or whatever. He's just more versatile.

    And Bis is my favorite MC so believe that haha
