Not to me…..but has a more legitimate case than many especially for people who grew up with him.

Feel like him and Cube get left out bc they came to be something different for my generation and younger.

He was the first big rapper

Also google says Muhammad Ali came up with the term GOAT but that LL Cool J popularized it with his 2000 album

He is

The F.O.R.C.E. OUT NOW

facts

what do his first week sales look like?

7 platinum albums

i can see why he feels that way

He has the resume to back that opinion up. Hes not my GOAT but his career is crazy, hes one of the first rappers i really studied

Tweets wording is funny lmao don’t know enough about his discog to speak on it with any authority but he is definitely a legend. Prob not talked about enough if that’s what he’s getting at

He’s a legend he’s allowed to think that

he coined the term, he's right to feel that way

was just revisiting this in the last week

He's pretty good, but the best ever? He could've been I guess

My brother in christ he invented the term GOAT

Peace to st albans/south Jamaica

what the hell, sure

He’s definitely in that conversation yes

He’s undeniably top 10 along with ice cube

Unfortunately I think the younger generations don’t delve into old school rappers as much as they do old school rockers and other genres
