Malice all day. Pusha's the braggart, which isn't a bad thing at all cause he does it better than 99.5% of the emcees out there. Malice can do that too however, but also adds a human, self-critical aspect to his emceeing that makes him a better artist.

I liked Malice more on Lord Willin, but since then I think Pusha has leapfrogged him.

Pusha's verse on "Keys Open Doors" might be my favorite this year.

Pusha T is technically better but Malice's verses hit me harder. voted Malice.

his intonation on "Something's WRONG with me" from Nightmares may be my favorite line delivery of the year.

Can you guys really tell the difference... I haven't really listened to them extensively, but damn they sound alike.

In my "Home Sweet Home" I keep chrome next to my bones
Alters my walk to limpin'
Since I love the feel, I guess I'm passionately pimpin'
It 'tis what it seems
That thing imprintin' through the seams of my jeans, by all means
Lost it all, from lives to love
Put my faith in my money, help me rise above
See I turned to the Lord when them times got tough
Bullied through streets, powder I pushed and shoved
In that ole' Virginey
Out of ten niggas, nine are guinea
No money, all they know is gimme, got semis waitin'
Heat like Caribbean summers, I been there
Each year, a diffferent bitch wonder
Who wing she gon' fall under, Push' or Mal'
Ganga grinds, wit' me, with thoughts of fuckin' them cross her mind
Look ma, that's right up my alley
I love my family, I want them all happy
In Virginia, we smirked at that Simpson trial
Yeah, I guess the chase was wild
But what's the fuss about?
See, plenty my partners feelin' like O.J.
Beat murder like the shit is OK, that's what our door say
Talk the evil that men do, I'm lost in the mental
I miss you Shampoo, we miss you Shampoo
And your grams, too...
Playas we ain't the same, I'm into 'caine and guns
Show par with the fishes, make the face lift numb
Out in Panama in that amazing sun, I'm amazing, son
You niggas wonder where my grace is from
I speak with corrupted tongue
Recognized the underworld since I was young
Back in '84 when I saw Crocket & Tubbs as the law
These eyes got big when they televised that raw
My mama should've seen it comin'
Me runnin' up and down the stairs too quick
Hummin' Miami Vice theme music
Called the 'roin made me colder
I see the villains' impact, now that I'm older
Ignorant fool, views ignorant, too
Got a lot of money, keep militant tools
Wasn't present the session they handed out the rules
So I grab a tape and related to life's cruels
The meaning?
Pusha T's more than the semen
Not just a rap name, more so like a damn shame
Nothing's changed, just the crimes is less heinous
The three of us know, yet the shooter remains nameless
And I don't even watch my back
I was raw before rap, and I ain't lost my past
Shit could get hairy, I could lose my-self in a flash
Niggas'll think I'm Jim Carrey how I off that "Mask"
I make big money, drive big cars
Everybody know me, it's like I'm a movie star
Virginia nights, sellin hard white
To sellin out shows, every gangsta love my flow
Still I creep low, thinking niggaz trying to harm me
Hoping my karma ain't coming back here to haunt me
Was it that nigga, I took his powder with a smile
Praying to Lord, the gun ain't pop and hit the child, shit
I pilt niggaz girls back like Alphahydroxie
Spent money like Happy Days, I'm the real Fonzy
Top off the coupe, thats how JFK got shot B,
Can't let niggaz roll up beside me, and 2Pac me
Holla if you hear me, tears flowing sincerely
Check up on my block, weekly, my health yearly
Somethings wrong with me, niggaz don't get along with me
Got a 4-4, hope ya body got strong kidneys..oh!
:cheers:

Pusha is better technically. Better flow, more consistent, etc. On average I'd pick him, but Malice's best verses are the album's best verses.

Pusha is one of my favorite MCs right now. Malice is very good but to me, he's on and off. more on then off but still.

pusha T. I am surprised most folks can't tell them apart, Malice has a much more nasal voice to me, his long a-sounds are much flatter than Pusha's. Also, on Hell hath, Pusha usually rhymes first.

They're both about equal. I think Pusha has the most memorable lines, Malice has a more stone cold style though.

I agree. Pusha T always catches my ear first but Malice will catch me off guard in a song.

I can tell 'em apart, although it's not easy. malice's delivery on HHNF is weak at times, like when he says "bird crumbs will never do" - sounds awful. both of 'em are great, but I voted for pusha

I didn't say the line is wack, just that his pronounciation of "do" is weird

Damn, for a second after reading the posts, I thought Malice would've been ahead. I'm really surprised people think he's better than Pusha. Dude is seriously moving leaps and bounds beyond his cohort. Malice plays his part, but the Rap City booth exchange and HHNF proved that Pusha's out of hand these days.

Both of Pusha's verses on "Hello New World" > Anything else an emcee recorded this year.
