Talkin bout this yesterday with a few homies, then on FB...
vs
The Debut Album
vs
Verdict:
Thug Motivation 101 by a LANDSLIDE... While Ross had a FEW joints on his debut, IMO he struggled to find his sound. Where as Jeezy MADE a niche for his style of rap, and basically had the streets on lock in 05 with his debut...
Winner: Young Jeezy
The Sophmore Album
vs
The Verdict:
While Trilla is deffinetly better than his debut, The Inspiration is not as good as Jeezy's debut he still manages to keep pace. Not straying too far away from what made TM101 successful Jeezy stays in his lane, Trilla's production is MUCH better than POM, Ross also made some improvements as an MC, but overall I'd have to give a SLIGHT edge to Jeezy
Winner: Young Jeezy
3rd Installment
vs
The Verdict:
IMO both of these albums are their MOST personal (if you will), they both had something to prove... If they would be able to live up to the standards they set with their previous efforts. The Recession is a DOPE album, from the production, the theme, and the FINAL product flows VERY well. Deeper Than Rap is also a DOPE album, the production is AMAZING, as is the theme, and the overall flow... What seperates Deeper Than Rap is the fact that Ross got a lil more personal, due to the fact that his credibility was being questioned by 50, he really put togeather a mature sounding album that was the epitome of Gangsta... This is some Paul Castalano type *@++, $300 dollar cigar, $1,000 dinner type *@++... I think he FINALLY found the sound that suites his style of rap, and subject matter.
Winner: Rick Ross
Compilation Album
vs
The Verdict:
I never heard either one of these joints... But judging by the covers USDA's album is prolly better
Winner: N/A
Anticipation:
vs
The Verdict:
With BOTH of their 4th albums set to drop in the Spring/Summer the anticipation for both is pretty high... Due to the fact that Deeper Than Rap was a lil better than The Recession, I personally will be lookin foward to Teflon Don... But @ the SAME time Jeezy has NEVER made a wack (or even average) album so I'm expecting no difference with Thug Motivation 103
Winner: TIE
Intangibles:
Both artists bring somethin a lil unique to the game, they both have their own swagger... When Ross first came out I thought he was bitin Jeezy a lil bit, but Jeezy operates more on the street level of things, where as Ross is suppose to be some type of Boss. They both are VERY good @ rapping, but lyrically I think Ross is more advanced than Jeezy. Ross rapping comes off as being effortless, he's a natural... Jeezy may have the edge when it comes to making songs and having charisma, but Ross has the edge when it comes to OVERALL talent...
Winner: Rick Ross
OVERALL:
Rick Ross is the better MC/Lyrcist of the 2... Jeezy may have a slight edge as a "rapper"... All 3 of Jeezy's albums are bangers, IMO Ross only has 1 CERTIFIED banger (Deeper Than Rap), his debut is a lil suspect, Trilla was SOLID tho...
Thug Motivation 101 > Deeper Than Rap > The Recession > The Inspiration > Trilla > Port Of Miami
Winner: Young Jeezy
