How does it rate amongst Lasers and FLII? As both were major levels below his debut and sophomore albums. It seemed like his style completely changed after The Cool.
I have to say after a few listens I am really disappointed in the new Mick Jenkins mixtape.
Just listened to No role models by J Cole, it was very good. Can some of you guys give me your top 3-5 J Cole songs??
Dreams, Apparently, Blow up (fantastic banger), Let Nas down, Lil ghetto nigga. All for different reasons really.
Return of Simba
Coleworld
Premeditated murder
3 wishes
Villuminati
Loves me not
Mo Money
I know you said 3-5 but feck it i couldn't touch that list, In the Morning is the perfect song too, all his hits as a matter of fact.

Can't wait for Cole to stop rapping like he is 21 though, he is a grown a** man.
What ever happened to that rap album thread @Loublaze ?
Yeah definitely not gonna take advice from "about.com" about rap. Especially when they put Jada at only 50?! Madness
Has anyone heard of Belly?
Died a natural death. No one was contributing
Why of course. Very well known movie in Hiphop...
any top 50 list that has beans above jada should be completely ignored, they obviously know nothing
Jada is an amazing rapper but what probably hurts him is the fact that he's never put out a classic album. All of those other artists have, including Beanie Sigel, but yea Jada should be above him still.

It wasnt a run down of the top 50 mc's who have put out better or more critically acclaimed albums, it was the 50 best
Whether or not either of his two albums are classics is irrelevent in my opinion, hes a better rapper than everyone i posted
The rapper not the movie, I should've been specific.... now I wanna watch Belly.
Better than X and Latifah in their primes?
I thought it was about the album list, so I amended my post. Going by all the merits they've listed when arriving at the names on the list i'd still say DMX and Queen Latifah have Jada beat. Beans doesn't and a lot of others on the list also don't. Its a poor list tbh.
Average rapper,Looks like Asap Yams and Bronson's lovechild? nice flow but copies other rappers and switches up his style a lot ?
Yep thats the one.
His album was a lot better than I was expecting, I like it a lot.
@Loublaze
I will start it up again in October when I go back to University, busy on placement at the moment.
Did you watch it? The soundtrack is great too. It was directed by Hype Williams, his first full length movie after changing the rap video game in mid to late 90s.
No doubt
Best live performers?
I'd imagine Kanye Would probably be right up there.
I've seen a fair few live rap acts in the past and thought Kanye's Glow In The Dark Tour and also the Watch The Throne one with Jay were the best I've seen.
KRS One is one of the best I've seen live. So much charisma, and energy on the mic.
The Roots are the best hip hop act I've seen live by a landslide. Obviously it helps that they're a band but noone can beat Black Thought rap live.
Pretty awful list to nobodies surprise.
Snoop down at 42
The Game not even in the top 50?! LOOOOL!
Where's The Documentary 2 btw (The Game)? 
Who would you take out for him ?

Kind of happy he hasn't dropped it - i don't want to be disappointed.
Too many to name, if fecking Jadakiss, Redman, Ghostface Killa and Queen feckin Latifa can get onto the list, I'm sure there's space for him...
The only reason I'm not getting depressed over it is cos I'm still spinning Dr Dre's Compton on loop....feckin epic!
Rather have it when I'm bored of this...
Macklemore is back
What did y'all think of Straight Outta Compton? (Movie)
Personally, I loved it.

Satisfiction
Medicine Man
my standout tracks
and ofcourse Just Another Day - The Game
You're kidding right?
Jada actually needs to be closer to the top 20 than 50. It's a poor list, in terms of it's order, not because The Game isn't on it.

So it's correct for The Game not be even in the top 50?!
Laughable to me...
I'd have him in the top 50, but not at the expense of the rappers you named.
