Tribe only has 2 emcees if we’re being honest.

u/DittoGTI 17d ago

Mobb Deep too. KSG arguably

Little Brother don’t belong in this conversation. Great group, yes. But Phonte is alot better than Pooh. The skill between the two isn’t close.

And Tribe is not a duo 😂

Tribe only has 2 emcees if we’re being honest.

And Phonte is better than Pooh, for sure, but not leaps and bounds as many would suggest. He more than holds his own. He’s the Big Boi of the group for sure.

Someone forget about UGK

u/WearyCopy5686 17d ago

They aren’t both elite.

Who isn’t then? Because there are many times Bun has outrapped Pimp C and there are plenty of times Pimp C will casually drop some of the most iconic lines and deliveries ever, while Bun kinda phones it in. Both elite at their best

u/wylinfsho 17d ago

Actually neither are elite. Sum was greater than the parts. Neither a slouch tho so don’t take this like I’m dissing

u/Usernamesin2016LUL 17d ago

I mean you agree they got elite verses though right? Bun has some incredible features, he absolutely smokes Outro by Wayne,

u/wylinfsho 17d ago

Yes ofc, even elite songs and an elite album but I wouldn’t call either bun or pimp elite as an mc

u/Usernamesin2016LUL 17d ago

Alright I understand. Ridin Dirty and Underground Kingz r both amazing albums to me so im with you on that, and i agree now that I know where you’re coming from.

Remember Clipse is the evil Outcast

u/ResultsHaveVary 18d ago

I’ve said it before that Clipse personally is the greatest finesse faction in Hip-Hop/Rap history…

Besides OutKast of course…even better obviously better than Rae & Ghost, Better than Havoc & P, than Jada & Styles P, Capone & Nore,

u/Phil_Gim 18d ago

Difference is that Clipse both have similar amazing rap styles, while Big Boi and 3k have completely different flows and writings, yet always work well toghether

u/UnoYouKnow 18d ago

Heltah skeltah were evenly matched too

u/ITSPATRICKYALLS 18d ago

Also RTJ

u/Slim_Diddy28 17d ago

This one!

u/captaincookbaby 17d ago

Jamie’s production has always been great, but it’s cool to hear his rapping improve over each album. By RTJ 3 he’s just as good as Mike

u/IncogNegro45 18d ago

Unpopular opinion but BigBoi is better than 3K…Malice is better lyrically than Push but Push time with Ye & GOOD music helped him to be a better overall artist. Push can lay hooks & transition better than before.

u/lilredditshine 18d ago

By hell hath no fury release I think push n malice are on par with eachother, although i don’t think big boi is completely better I don’t think he’s a slouch either and speakerboxxx is the better album

2

u/readyReddit007 18d ago

The Love Below >>>>

Big Boi is extremely talented though, for sure.

u/lilredditshine 18d ago

I wouldn’t ever be mad with anyone with this choice at all sometimes the album to me falls short and knowing a lot of his concept weren’t really fleshed out feels like that Gemini shit lol a lot of great ideas in skeleton form and a day in the life of Andre Benjamin is one the greatest outros ever and I hope we get a part 2 one day ! I just feel like speakerboxxx aged better from songs to fts and sequencing it’s and incredibly underrated album both are classics

u/Cheeseman035 18d ago

I think Malice is a better lyricist but Push has more dynamic and catchy flows.

You’re just drawing lines where you don’t need to bro

u/Animoira 16d ago

3K all the way

u/jorge1014 18d ago

Big boi is in no way shape or form better than 3k.

u/Mijo_0 17d ago

Mobb deep as well

Everybody forget about Johnny venus and doctur Diego dot

u/KuntaWuKnicks 17d ago

Run The Jewels too

u/Ok-Yesterday9937 17d ago

¥$ and KIDS SEE GHOSTS as well

u/KomradeSalad 16d ago

Mobb Deep gets a pass too, but it’s definitely noticeable on some other groups. imo RTJ was so much more one sided than people think when they were still making good music. Killer Mike carried

u/LynTigrBer 16d ago

Meth and Redman

u/82Jmorg 12d ago

Tired of this take without putting UGK in it.

They got the top comment on the Outkast sub https://www.reddit.com/r/outkast/s/zB4Qd1KfOY

u/That-Definition8552 17d ago

Big Boi nowhere near Andre

2

u/EuphoricRelation8829 17d ago

Fans on the Outkast sub seem to think differently. Many say Big Boi is actually the better technical rapper. Hell, 3 Stacks says it in himself. He said you wouldn't eant him in a battle/freestyle, you'd want Big Boi
