Now if it's a track where they are lacing a story or something, then yeah I'd say Rae would probably shit on Jay. But let's be real, getting on a track and just flowing for the fuck of it with any MC besides Ghost isn't really Rae's strong point. He's a storyteller and topical rapper first and foremost.
Aka you don't fuck with Rae as an emcee, because the stuff you're saying is ridiculously off base.
It's funny, Jay z makes a "shitty" album its used against him the rest of his career.
Raekwon makes a God-awful, terrible album, THE LEX DIAMOND STORY, and i literally dont think i've ever heard it mentioned on this site.

I doubt any of Rae's albums even come close to being as bad as BP3.
Exhibit A:
... Damn Jay be going in huh?
Exhibit B:
.... Damn Jay got bars huh?
FOH!!!! Jay should be banned for hip-hop after releasing that wackass album. Dude tainted the fuck out of his legacy with that pop trash.
lol Rae is one of my favorite MCs. I'm just not a dick rider. He isn't what he was back around OB4CL, and he's not a particularly good feature MC. When it comes to story telling, I'll put him against anybody and when he's spazzing he's tight too, but he went through a period where he didn't do that much. He's reinvigorated himself lately, but he still ain't spitting anything like he did on Incarcerated Scarfaces or Black Jesus.
Durant's right where he belongs as the 2nd best player in the NBA. There's a big gap between him and Lebron, and there's a good-sized gap between him and Carmelo/Kobe.
