--------
Aries Spears stirred up debate with DJ Vlad, where he controversially opined that 20 rappers are better than Kendrick Lamar. While respecting Kendrick's status as one of today’s top artists, Spears nonetheless dismissed him from his top 20 list. He rattled off names like Jay-Z, Nas, Biggie, Rakim, Eminem, Tupac, Jadakiss, LL Cool J, and a few others, prioritizing East Coast legends.
DJ Vlad countered Spears' list, arguing for Kendrick's lyrical prowess and body of work, particularly contesting Spears' inclusion of artists like Cannibus and Dave East over Lamar. Spears eventually retracted Dave East, replacing him with Fat Joe in his list. A heated discussion ensued over the importance of career longevity versus lyrical complexity. Concluding the debate, Vlad argued that established careers shouldn't be overshadowed by brief sparks, which Aries often put weight on.
