He s definitely not but he was fucking awesome for about 5-7 years. His demo stuff that stretch and bob used to play is incredible.

100% no fucking chance on the planet. He was great but the best of all time? Not even near the conversation.

Diabolique was a big disappointment after the Cenobites LP + all the singles on Hydra.

^That's a little harsh but definitely more realistic than "best ever".
Agreed with IDAL about Diabolique. It was like he forgot how to make beats on that one.

You know damn well it's Nas ,Jay and Big. As soon as you mention Godfather Don, then suddenly niggas don't understand the question.

Damn this song is insanely good. Still trying to decide if that loop was flipped better on this or puns I'm not a player...

As for God Don being the best of all time. He's very very good, maybe you could put him in the conversation of best underground rapper of all time. Best of all time overall is some backpack fanboyism shit tho.

Godfather don, imo. I know we got some scaramanga stans in here (whattup driz!) and I liked some of his stuff but his body work doesn't fuck with don's.

On one hand I'd say scaramanga, because he kind of took don's style and went further with it, kind of like godfather don on steroids. On the other hand, if you look at their full body of work, I agree don wins. For me when you take everything into consideration (strictly on the mic, scaramanga's various aliases. their full body of work, don's beats), it's godfather don's production work that makes him the better overall total package than scara.

I don't think scaramanga was ever really near Don , on a technical level. he was quirkier but don could flow his ass off and said some out there shit. Scara always seemed like he would rhyme accidentally. Which is cool but, i dunno...I prefer don's steeze in general.

Piece Of The Action and Da Bomb Baby were def the best 2 tracks to bridge the gap between N.Y indie rap + peak Jiggyness.
