Face

Face's catelogue is much, much stronger than Rakim's

Both have had a heavy impact on the game and are legends in their own right.

Face

Being from Texas I was raised on face so I guess I'm a little biased....Rakim is a legend but I'm willing to say there wouldn't be "southern MC's" is there wasn't a face....I would mention D.O.C since he's from Dallas but his catalog is not big enough and most niggas thought he was from Cali back then......

Face got better with age, if there was a longevity score Face would win. It looks lopsided but in my opinion Ra definitely benefitted from his discography containing the albums he did with Eric B. If we were talking straight solo albums then Face would win there too.

I knew this would be close but damn....Props to Rakim the legend tho...

Rakim is a far superior rapper. Face is consistent and has good subject matter. Rakim has more classics tho plus he gave birth to complex, relaxed rapping so many emcees bite his style. Rakim in my top 3 face isn't in my top 5

_Menace_

Rakim Allah

damn this is close

Rakim-10
Face-9

jono

This deserves to be close. I'm not mad at anyone who picks Face, shit I damn near wanted to myself.

"I take 7 MC's put 'em in a line
And add 7 more brothers who think they can rhyme
Well it'll take 7 more before I go for mine
Now that's 21 MC's ate up at the same time"

ight now rakim is on his way to take the lead

Face is the homie, but I just feel like Ra revolutionized hip-hop with his flow and lyricism. Very intriguing matchup though.

Face. Ra got some dope lyrics, but dude quite literally stopped like a prisoner to his early work. Face kept going and delivering classics.
