Absolutely true Kane is definitely the greatest of all time

[@wannitafindley6911]

I agree! Because, really, it wasn't close with krs! It was a great deal of respect! Kane, recited every word to his lyrics! Every word! KRS didn't. He was sticking the mic to the crowd, who didn't know all of his songs... They were clueless, however, when Kane began to recite his lyrics, they didn't know it his song! It was awesome to see, especially for those that were unaware that Kane was such a dominant lyricist! And at the end, he showed how classy and humble he was, sharing the story of KRS and Ms. Melody, moving him into his first place! Much love brother Kane! Growth!

[@steelersluv]

I met Floyd in the summer of 1996 in Augusta, Ga. I’d just graduated from high school and the Olympics in Atlanta was about to start. He trained in Augusta. I was working at Kroger as a bag boy, and Floyd approached us and introduced himself to us. He was very humble. He told us he was fighting in the Olympics. When he walked off we were like “man I’d whoop that dudes ass.” Little did we know that joker would’ve murdered our asses! We didn’t know any better. Lmao!

Rakim was rap when he came out, no one could come close to his writing skills, delivery, flat-out bars‼️

[@a16studios]

He changed the game, he changed music, the whole trajectory of hip-hop. After him rap became more serious, "Weak ideas, irritate my ears!" and he was the first one that made Rap seen as metaphysical to the point where he was christened the God MC. But then Kane came along a few years later and his punchlines, flow, and the fact he could spit that double-time rhyme scheme like on RAW definitely made him a worthy rival of Rakim! LOL The main reason was they were like the first true gold and platinum rappers with knowledge of self!

Shoutout to Floyd for having that winning spirit as a teenager definitely a boxing fan ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@spanklocpimpn7517]

BIG DADDY KANE 💯the reason my High top stayed fresh

[@niccomakk]

Hands down this is the best podcast out real conversations on here! Salute Math!

[@IAMJUDAH144]

Kane Is right I agree. Rakin Is laid back and not on a hype tip. Krs 1 vs kane was dope though and it worked.

[@719kai719]

Rakim and Kane are two of my favorite emcees. I would have loved to see a VZ with them two or even a collabo

[@tanekahairston5889]

I love both of them 😭❤️! I’m glad they didn’t do a Versuz, I could never choose one over the other💪🏽💯❤️❤️

[@michealroebuck683]

KANE and OMAR EPPS on the show,wow! Salute! to you MATH HOFFA! BROOKLYN!!!.

[@Twizzledoc187]

Omar Epps is a living legend. To have worked with PAC, Ice Cube as well as Michael Rappaport and Tyra Banks…..he is cut from that cloth of the great era of movies and hip hop.

[@willieboyland3180]

Math hands down got the best podcast from a rapper's perspective....

[@mostmost1]

I saw Rakim and Kane in concert. Rakim out performed Kane, Slick Rick, Rae and Ghost. Rakims catalog and style and RHYMES are just way too much for Kane. Krs catalog was too much for Kane also. Rakim fathered many of these guys style. Kane not dancing with scoop and scrap no more. When you spitting lyrics people reciting every rhyme, you don't have to dance, throw your hands in the air and the regular. Rakim wrapped that mic cord around his arm and put that mic to his arm vein and that beat drop for microphone fiend!!!! The crowd goes WILD.

[@AmariMarvelous]

There still need to be a Kane and Rakim Verzus. Rakim catalogue is way bigger and has more hits then Kane.

[@chaunt100]

These are the TiTANS of MC ing. KRS ONE LL KANE G RAP RAKIM SLICK RICK CHUCK D

[@jahmediastudios4061]

All truth

[@AmariMarvelous]

@Youbig Dummy so I made a mistake as I was typing... its not that serious smh lol

[@musaka2022]

Really? Never seen him live, only recordings and I always thought he was a more reserved performer.

[@Iamblacklight]

Great job!

[@7Eightyone]

Kane is right. I've seen Rakim live. His catalogue is undeniable but his stage show isn't on par with Kane's.

[@r.ramirez6745]

Thats why you battle to put an end to the speculation. If one guy doesnt want it then its done. Its a TapouT

[@supremeodom9950]

Rakim is an emcee he's not a dancer

[@7Eightyone]

@@supremeodom9950 you don't have to dance to have a live stage show. DJ Quik, Black thought, Ice Cube and Busta Rhymes don't dance either and have incredible stage presence. It's not a knock on Rakim. And you're lightweight implying that Kane isn't an MC 😐

[@supremeodom9950]

Well that's all Kane do

[@7Eightyone]

@@supremeodom9950 lol. You're talking like Kane is MC Hammer...

[@817Moon]

You got the better sit down with Omar Epps🔥

[@Dtown3thirteen]

I notice when certain guests are on the show, no body tries to talk over them

[@SunyChi]

This show is crazy. Big up Math. Epps. Legendary Kane

[@leonardguillory2511]

It's called Showmanship! I'm Glad they mentioned James! And EW&F! The only group I think they shoulda shouted out was P-Funk(Talk about a Stage Show ✊🏿)🤟🏿

[@hollywoodddagent7111]

Parliament stage presence is unmatched

[@johnbooker7153]

Don't sleep on Heavy D either. Bars, delivery, smooth and stage presence

[@TheSolution4Kickz]

I'm with Math on the showmanship. That's not Rakim's forte. It's lyricism and Kane has both.

[@coolb8545]

Kane's lyricism isn't on Rakim's level and Rakim's stage show energy is not on Kane's level

[@c30ful]

@@coolb8545 🎯

[@supremeodom9950]

How many songs Kane give y'all 5 at the most so he has to entertain y'all with something else Rakim can go on for days

[@reggiemunch]

Rakim is a microphone fiend....not a stage fiend!💯
