    As far as lyricism goes there’s so many giants in the rap game but what makes an emcee truly dangerous is one who’s a great lyricist in the rap game, as well as an amazing ability to battle and that’s what guys like lord finesse, big L, king Los, Cassidy, Kendrick, Ab Soul, micky factzzz, Supernat, Mc Juice, Em, Diabolic, Technique, Canibus, Daylyt, percee P, Krs One, and a select few others are able to do each of these guys to a different level/extent than others of course but the fact that they can do both is amazing.

    Nobody not even Jay was touching Cass. SP was a team of average rappers, with Jay behind him
