Now, we've all followed the great rap battles over the years - from LL vs. Kool Moe Dee, to Big vs. Pac, to Nas vs. Hov, to what seems to be the biggest in today's hip-hop, The Game vs. 50 Cent.
My question is this: To you, what matters most going in a battle - the amount of recors that cat has sold, the $$ they got, or what goes on wax? I only say that I think people judge battles based on how popular a rapper is, and not how skillful they are these days.
Perfect example: Nelly vs. KRS One.
Now, C'mon. Who do you reallythink took that? But I hear so many times "Well, Nelly better than KRS cause he sold 9 million."
What's your take on that?
