Juicy J has an endless reservoir of confidence when it comes to his rapping abilities. In December 2020, he declared Three 6 Mafia the best Hip Hop group of all time and it appears he believes a similar title belongs to him as a solo rapper, too.
On Monday (February 8), RapCaviar posed the question: “Who’s the Tom Brady of the rap game?” to which Juicy J replied, “Me.” The bold proclamation solicited dozens of comments from “Love u but stop the cap bro” and “Real GOATS don’t claim titles like that” to “You don’t even believe that.”
The Breakfast Club co-host Charlamagne Tha God certainly doesn’t believe that. His pick goes to the inimitable JAY-Z who just received a nomination for induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame earlier this week.

On Wednesday (February 10), TIDAL’s Elliott Wilson shared an Instagram post with a tweet from sports broadcaster Robin Lundberg that read, “Jay-Z is the best rapper alive, the best rapper of all time, and he’s getting better.”
Charlamagne hopped in the comment section and wrote, “This really isn’t up for debate at this point. Tom Brady is the Hov of athletes…..notice I didn’t say that the other way around.”
Brady led the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to a Super Bowl title on Sunday (February 7) when they beat the Kansas City Chiefs 31 to nine.
The veteran quarterback, who spent 20 seasons with the New England Patriots and earned six Super Bowl titles during his tenure, is often considered one of the greatest players in National Football League (NFL) history.
Wrong, Jay is the richest, far from the best. I would put Em or Nas as the Brady of the rap game. But people so used to praising Jay, like its a hip-hop requirement.
Sit down Bro Hov is the GOAT ?. Nas’ last album was garbage and no one wants to hear Em dude can’t even rap on beat anymore.
Jay’s not even the richest, that’s Kanye.
Nas, MF Doom, Ye, Ghostface, Raekwon, Prodigy, PAC, BIG, Pun > Jake-Z aka Rat Nation Founder, DEA-Jay.

Hov was trash in the 90’s and has had numerous ghost writers
I gotta agree with Juicy J. When I think of who is the “Tom Brady” of the rap game, I dont just think age, I think of whos still making hits. Still making albums. What has Jay-Z done musically lately ? If Juicy J aint the Tom Brady of the rap game then the only other contenders might be Too Short or E-40. Jay-Z is more like the Joe Montana of the rap game. He is pretty much retired.
Juicy J is the guy you see come off the bench in a blowout and go “wow he’s still in the league?”
Well said.
Well. There is Truth to it. Hes one of the best producers in the game.
Jay Z the goat?!?!?! HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!! Listen to Big Pun please and compare Pun in 99′ and Jay Z today, if you say Jay Z is better, I seriously urge you to kill yourself … Jay Z the goat FOH
So you’re saying listen to big pun in his prime and compare him to Jay-z at the age of 51? You sound ridiculous. Tell me the big pun album better than reasonable doubt or the Blueprint or vol2 or the black album or the dynasty album or American gangster?
@You sound crazy / Jay Z has 20+ years on Pun (RIP) which means he advanced lyrically right? but Jay Z best still gets smoked by 20 years ago entry level Pun FACTS!
If u winning in the game, mafuckas want u in the features…40 water
He’s right! Juicy J is the Tom Brady of hip hop. Inspired the 808 trap sounds and flows. He’s a rapper and producer. Has 100s of hit songs and street classics. He inspired countless rap artists: Cardi B, Megan the Stallion, Asap Mob, Don Trip, Yo Gotti, Young Dolph, Logic, and many more.
I think Drake is even as much don’t like most of his music ! Very Overrated in my opinion..
This is why I tune out when I see this generation fanboying over Eminem. Em is dope but by no means is he’s on Hovs level. At 51 people are still trying to get a verse from Jay. Nas on the other hand is awesome but when I was listening to his song on Judas black messiah I thought this is typical Nas. Lyrically the song is nice but it’s boring. People thought it was just him needing a better producer but it’s just Nas. When you take the Reasonable doubt, the Blueprint, Vol 2. The black album then recently how he flowed on Jay Electronica’s album, Meek Mills what’s free and this…if you think if you think he’s not the goat you tripping.
Vol2. ws basically a compilation and if u playback the Blueprint u will hear an arrogant guy headed for a fall…dude can still rap but so can Will Smith….Busta Rhymes basically shut all this shit d0wn…but as far as Nas…he will never see him(Jay)….”Rewind” “I Gave you Power” “Poison”…. shaWn is a shallow artist…what’s his most clever shit? 22 twos??
How could jay z be the best rapper ever if Nas is FACTUALLY better than him at rapping
You dont believe that. Everyone know hov is better than nas. Go sit down boy
You’re telling me what I believe , Nas is the goat MC . Levels above hov at rapping . Illmatic hasn’t been matched 30years later . Wordplay , lyrics way crazier. Nas rhymes full sentences while telling a vivid story . And jay z in my top 5 . Eminem killed jayz on renegade , jayz is not the goat
And you having to say Fuk an obvious goat makes it obvious you don’t know shit lmao go sit down little man
JayZ was garbage in the 90s
