HE BE SAYIN SOME CRAZY S*** SOMETIMES AND THEN SOMETIMES IT SOUNDS CHILDISH BUT FIF IS STILL A GOOD RAPPER BUT NOT THE BEST THO,HE CAN'T WORD PLAY LIKE A JAY OR NAS.
Why Do People Insist On Calling Jay-Z Lyrical..He Used To Be Lyrical Prior To 1998..
Jay-Z A Song Writer..
Nas Is Lyrical..This Is The Main Reason Why Nas Has Never Got The Credit He Deserves..Cuz Hes Not A Song Writer..
50 Is A Song Writer..He Used To Be Lyrical But Switched His Style So He Could Blow Up..
Its More About Flow With Them..And Riding Tracks..But 50 Makes The Best Hooks..Lyricist Cant Make Hooks..
50 may not be the best lyrically...but he can definetly rap he a beast on the mic sometimes...he really just dont have as good punchlines but his flow can still be sick

They all rap about different things so I ain't sure. I think he is a great artist but maybe not up there lyrically with some of the top guys. Some artist put in that work to make great lyrics while others give you just enough. Honestly I think Fif to busy running his empire than to sit around a studio writing the best lyrics he can write. I mean Lil' Wayne his doing his thing right now because what else he got other than rapping. Same thing goes for Nas. Jay-Z is just a freak of nature. Anyway if Fif stop making the movies and doing everything else and just locked himself away for a few months to concentrate on his album then I believe he could easily drop a classic. Look at GRODT. He can make a great album if that is what he focuses on.
Secondly, 50 has the ability and I think most people know that. But i also think he knows lyricism doesn't always equal sales or radio spins. If you listen to his mixtapes, he is more than capable.
