It kinda seems like he's pretty close, or that he has (Kanye shrug).

 

[RealRager]

Jay-Z's still hanging in there...but it's close. VERY CLOSE.

 

[nqg3F75XVc9ERf]

Kanye has a better discog tbh

 

[HOMEWRECKER]

I personally believe in terms of discography, kanye's is definitely more interesting. Jay's discography has always been straight up rap and not really experimental or innovative like kanye's has always been.

 

[L0STintheWORLD]

Yes Kanye has surpassed Jay-Z as a musician.


As a business mogul, no, never.

 

[cebreros2740]

kanye to me is the best musician right now..or top 5 at least jay isnt....but jay is one hell of a business man

 

[ThreeSix1017]

yes

 

[Megatron God]

wtf, no. LOL.

 

[imiweli]

music wise yes

rap wise no

 

[Delta Step 3.0]

MBDTF >>>>>>>>>> Jay's discog

 

[Loveless]

Kanye is FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR above Jay musically, in talent, in discography and just in general
no rapper has ever come close to making music as good as MBDTF, Kanye > all rappers and rap in general

 

[Charlie]

I think so, but I am also a member of a Kanye fan forum.

 

[Better Call Saul]

I think so, but I am also a member of a Kanye fan forum.

The thing that everyone needs to keep in mind is that Hov is already at a disadvantage. You guys say that Kanye is a better musician? Jay-Z is not a producer. WTT was close as hell! The best tracks on the album (Who Gon Stop Me, ****** In Paris, Otis, Primetime, and The Joy) were a real battle and i think yeezy came out on top. Look back on their history like Never Let Me Down or The Bounce and you'll see who the better rapper is. Jay-Z The best rapper alive but only because Kanye and Just Blaze have his back. To be real Ye just doesn't have the ability jigga does. He can speed up but not on a Reasonable Doubt level. Jay mixes brains with street cred and Kanye mixes art with sex. Yall saw what Jay did to J. Cole right? Mr. Nice Watch was a murder. it was disrespectful how he put cole in his place like that to let ****** know he's still number 1 haha. unless you're listening to Reasonable Doubt, The Blueprints, The Black Album, or American Gangster every other album just has a couple hits on 'em. but on a Kanye album EVERYTHING GOES IN! except 808's. Sorry i'm not like yall, i can't just sum up a question like that with a yes or no answer.

 

[Waleed]

music wise yes

rap wise no

Ron Swanson has said it all

 

[truman]

music wise, Kanye has always been better.

 

[Pr.]

Jay's discography is more consistent but imo Jay's classics mean more to hip hop than Kanye's. RD and BP are one of the best hip hop albums of all time and I dont see CD, LR, or MBDTF being brought up when we talk about all time classics for the genre. Maybe MBDTF in a couple years

 

[Bala]

In terms of music yes, in terms of lyrical ability no.
