Lord Jamar and DJ Vlad Debate Who's the Better MC: Ice Cube or Nas (Part 15) 

Vlad just baiting Nas fans at this point surelyyyyy 🤣

Cube harder and more straight forward. Nas is more lyrical. Thank God for them both.

Nas is the greatest MC of all time

Ice Cube's music always has a strong messages , Nas messages sometime get overlook do to complexity .

"Some seek fame cause they need validation....Some say hatin is confused admiration" (Nas, Life is Good)

Ice Cube one of my idols. Death Certificate changed my life as an 11 year old. But Nas is just another level of MC. Nas, Jay, Biggie, 2Pac......after that the debate starts but those 4 separated themselves from everyone

Nas ...to me is a legend. Cube .....a legend. different styles and God Mc's ...both of em...unfair comparison...love to both💙❤

Vlad forever hatin on nas

Nas doesn't have an album that i don't like. Ice Cube's later albums weren't that good. I'd say that I'd personally put Nas over ice cube for that.

It seems like Vlad has an overt and obvious negative campaign against Nas. Idk how he always seems to slide Nas into the conversation but it's rarely in a positive light.

Ice Cube's Death Certificate is one of the top 3 best rap albums of all time. Every song is raw & dope from start to finish.

Why is this even a debate??? Cube is nice but he's not in Nas league come on vlad....

Nas is light years ahead of Ice Cube as far as lyricism and overall talent; Nas is just more gifted.

Dj vlad always hate on nas😂😭

Death Certificate is one of the best hip hop albums of all times

"Nas Writes Scriptures" Wyclef- But you can't take anything from Ice Cube. They're both officially legendary. What's the point of this discussion?

Wow, Will Smith did sound Rakim-esque on 'Summertime'.

Bottom line...regardless who’s better who’s got the best delivery..etc. let’s just appreciate that these two legends are still alive and can still give us (hip hop fans) real music.

cube for me

I like Nas better

I can't even entertain this debate..

GREATEST ALBUMS OF ALL TIME 1. DEATH CERTIFICATE 2. ILLMATIC 3. ENTER THE WU

Cube cold but nas is better

Cube is one of the most underrated of all time 💯

Vlad need to stop disrespecting the God Son!

Is that a question? I love Cube but...gtfoh.

Dmx held both down also

Nas is a better MC and Illmatic has better production than anything from Ice Cube

BTW....Will Smith's initiation was from the movie, Six Degrees of Separation. When he played that gay character and kissed that dude, his career TOOK OFF right after that. Let's not forget

Vlad talks a lot for an interviewer

Ice cube easily

Lyrically Nas, but overall Cube

Cube would pick Nas.

I’ve always been into gangsta music, so it’s cube for me, I know Ice cube lyrics word for word I wasn’t hard into east coast , but I respect east coast music

*ICE CUBE IS THE G.O.A.T.*

I love Cube. But Nas is absolutely the best MC. Nas is the goat to me. But that’s not taking away from Cube. Released three classics and was one of the most iconic musical groups ever, not just hip hop. Cube was straight forward with his raps. No complex flows and bars. Just spitting facts and doing him

lmao Nas easily. Cube is nice but Nas is next level. And Illmatic is better than any and every Cube album.

Nas lyrically but cube had that flow and delivery

I can't wait until Vlad interview Nas lol

Comparing Nas to Ice Cube is like Comparing Keanu Reeves' acting to Robert Deniro's. You comparing George Foreman to Sugar Ray Leonard. Nas is vocabulary and style. Ice Cube is delivery and anger.

Dear Vlad, if you have nothing nice to say-don’t say anything at all. I love your show but this Nas “thing” is getting old, pathetic and tired. You are better than this. Please stop. We are ALL getting tired of hearing your baseless- bias antics( even the Nas haters are sick of it!) respectfully, your constituents- Black people and our Hip Hop culture ❤️

Ice cube all the way.

Nas not even a Comparison

I think Vlad is forgetting Will did Bad Boys already before independence day.

Nas all day overall, and he got cube on grand finale. Cube still a legend though

how can you compare the two there way different

I think IceCube moves the crowd,he had the energy and anger to match wat he was tryna get across better than Nas,Nas raps better and has the words to explain the anger than IceCube...They are both top 5

When Vlad says Naameen , Im surprise Lord Jamar kept a straight face

Nas, no competition.

Nas was inspired by ice cube

Cube got hits but Nas would rap circles around him. Plus ice cube got caught stealing from cypress hill lyrics and beats.

To be fair, Will Smith had his role in Bad Boys prior to Independence Day

LOGIC NEVER HAD A BABY WIT HER VLAD, TF????

Cube is cold, like savage raw on his lyric & he got nice beats, stuff you'd bop your head for... but most of Nas rap made people who listen to his stuff think. Cube's rap mostly entertaining and go quick like bang bang and that's it... Nas rap is sorta philosophical that pulls some close attention to the message in the lyrics. You can take 80% of Cube's tracks for the club playlist but there aren't many of Nas tracks suitable for club mood but rather fits in the political and community columns in newspapers.

Nas

Nas the intellectual street poet

Ice Cube is the unknown walking man in the evolution of Hip Hop

Cube had better albums...I'd put death certificate right up there with illmatic...

Lmao please dont tell me people think Cube is better than Nas. Theres levels to this

Ice cube!!!

Pacs acting career would of been much bigger then his acting career

Nas.

No way Ice is better then Nas How? when? What part is Ice Better

Rakim wrote ‘Summertime’... That’s y Will Smith sounded like Rakim in that song. Classic Top Ten song regardless.

there are no words to describe nas....illmatic is a masterpiece the sound of early 90's new york...timeless

I love Ice Cube. But Ice Cube does not rap as good as Nas. In any category.

Ice cube all the way. Better albums. Better beef. Better movies. Better overall rapper. Also impact and legendary career.

Nas on my top 5 best rappers of all time. Ice cube doesn’t make that list

ia he trying to start a east/west thing?

Easy choice. NAS.

Cube is light years ahead he has outstanding work with NWA then he dropped two of the greatest conscious hip hop albums of all time with Amerikkkaz most wanted,death certificate,then has one of the most popular songs of all time with “Today was a good day” all nas has is illmatic

Lyrical Skill: Nas Delivery: Ice Cube Beat Selection: Ice Cube Discography: Ice Cube

in rapping, your voice is your ink in handwriting. Cube voice is like a marker & Nas voice is like a #2 pencil. Maybe even a #1 pencil. When I 1st heard Gangsta Gangsta, I had to look out the window to see if that NWA was outside. Not even 2pac came out that hard. Nas catalogue is like the Marvin Hagar of lyricist. He quietly keeps coming at you with so much music to were he overwhelmes you. I think that it's safe to say that a lot Nas music has aged better than Cube's.

i like ice cube more but nas is better...

Will Smith proved to be a big action star in Bad Boys which came out before Independence Day

Vlad trying to take Jamar's YANADAMEEN!?

Ice Cube is my favorite rapper of all time...so you already know what my answer is gonna be...lol I'll admit I don't really listen to Nas..Not too impressed with what I hear.. He's nice with the words...but it just ain't my thing. Westcoast bias in my opinion I guess..lol.. I don't like everything my boy Cube has put out... especially after Laugh Now and Cry Later......but from Straight out of Compton to Amerikkkas most wanted....to kill at will... death certificate... the predator..da lench mob...lethal injection... bootlegs and b-sides....appearances on Mack 10 and W.c's albums...Yo yo's......The Westside Connection albums...war and peace.....His songs on soundtracks.... From straight out of Compton til Laugh now cry later...is 18 years... Raw footage and Iam the West are ok..but not my faves... But other than that That body of work Nas can't fuck wit...I'm sorry... Nas illmatic seems to be the only album that gets mentioned the most when referring to Nas.. Like the others weren't as good or something. I love the cleverness, Aggressiveness... amd Wittiness...of Cube's lyrics and flow... Nas is doin poetry reading. Not to mention The cultural impact.. Cube Helped Create the Westcoast as a powerhouse and popularity.. Hes a Film producer... director and actor Think of all the cats that came after Cube...in the west...tell me he wasn't influential...

Nas was in Belly Vladimir

Nas is more of a philosophical type dude and poet, while Cube was more of a street cred gangsta rapper. Lyrically in terms of deep and meaningful, Nas takes it. But in terms of repping the streets and showing attitude, Cube over Nas. But why does Vlad have to make it about who's better? Thats just a spectator's chump game. They're both great.

Nas 🤩

There's no right or wrong answer on this one. It's just a matter of preference.

Nas is all image...saw him live and it was just terrible. Saw the GZA live too and maybe the worst concert i ever saw....Ice cube was pure fire, rawness and energy, even live 20 years later. he is certified at any concert, and live is imo always the ultimate test for an true mc. really Nas is the most overrated gloryboy.

Ice Cube all the way - told us a stories we can never ever forget.. endless to the end

Storytelling-NAS Lyrics-NAS Flow ? Albums-NAS

Nas wtf gansta rap is the reason shits dumb down now and i love it...but thats the truth it started declining right after "gfunk" "gansta"rap

I'ma huge Cube fan since his days to NWA but he isn't a better MC than Nas. Nas ONLY competition was Biggie and even Biggie didn't go at Nas openly cause Nasty Nas was no joke.

Vlad always starts new debates about nas of who people never ever debated before. Typical jew using media to make nas look bad.

Has it been confirmed that Rakim ghostwrote Summertime?

Naaaa. I’m a fan of Cube but he’s not in the same league as a Nas. He isn’t even the best Rapper with the NWA posse. That goes to DOC

This isnt a even debate nas is lightyears ahead of cube

Vlad love all these 2nd hand pac stories!

Nas made it was written and stillmatic those alone compete with ice cubes best albums and illmatic takes Nas over the top

Ice Cube is like The Charles Manson of Hip Hop Nas is like The Lucky Luciano Of Hip Hop

Nas. Cube has been wack since lethal injection.

There is no fucking debate. Nas. Purple > Cube Cube isn't top tier.

Vlad: "That VladTV guest chair you're sitting on is better than Nas."

I got much Luv 4 Cube but Vlad get off tha bullshit trolling fam...this is not a debate...Nasir Jones hands down

Nas clearly better but ice cube first 3 albums were dope asf . Ice cube 10

Nas is the better lyricists; no debate. Ice Cube is dope, but Nas is top three best rappers of all time.

tryna figure out how vlad got to the point where he has a vendetta against the best rapper to do it
