Ghost went too far to the left on Supreme and even admitted that some of his lines were pretty much meaningless jibberish that he used to see how far he could push the envelope. He has better verses and tracks on Bulletproof Wallets and Fishscale too. Ghost had much better rhymes and tracks on Ironman than Supreme Clientele… not even close.

Prince po shined on his own. Price and the two Ghosts carved their own thing out. I think Roc Marciano can do the same. Everlast never fell out of grace with me personally...diamond is dope.

I think Royce actually took a step backward before taking a step forward. Most of Detroit Rock City and his work in that era was inferior to his early shit with Em, IMO. Since that, he's gotten really good again though.

Are you fucking kidding me? On the College Dropout he was technically unskilled, but at least had something to say and a decent had with a rhyme. He's gone steadily downhill. He's only able to murder anyone on their own shit because he seems to keep jumping on songs where nobody else involved is bringing any heat whatsoever. Mostly he just raps about his poop and makes horrible jokes that aren't funny. "This is bad, real bad, Michael Jackson" Abject fucking failure. I cannot understand how anyone who knows anything about rap can think he's anything but shit at this point - he doesn't even bring it behind the boards any more, going by "Run This Town." 808s and Heartbreak has some of the most uniformly embarrassing lyrics in the history of rap. And calling Jay-Z's verses on Reasonable Doubt "tongue-twisting nonsense" is goddamn ignorant. The definite winner in the most-improved category is Weezy, going from basically insignificant Cash Money gremlin to free-associating madman on Da Drought 3. Kanye? Are you fucking kidding me?

Dres of Black Sheep has always been great but he's even better now than he used to be. I used to find Royce Da 5'9" almost unlistenable, now he's one of the kings. Elzhi was all right in Slum Village, then went solo and started crushing everybody. P! T.I. has never been wack but he keeps getting better.
