Ab-Soul Says He Wants to be 'The Best Rapper in the World'

During his recent interview with DJ Skee, TDE rapper, Ab-Soul said he wants to be the best rapper in the world. Well, which rapper doesn't want to be the best? It is good for the art, as it keep rappers on their toes, and keeps them creative. He made this statement while speaking on the success of TDE, and how they are like brother's at the label. 





“We’re really brothers. We all really want to see each other do well. As much as it is friendly competition—I do want to be the best rapper in the world, too—it’s in the same way I want Kendrick to be the best, I want to see Q be the best. It’s a real interesting feeling but I think that’s what kind of keeps us all in line.”







Cool. By the way, Ab-Soul's These Days album drops next week Tuesday; June 24. 

Olamide is The Best Rapper in Nigeria (2014)

Yea, I said it; Olamide is currently the best rapper in Nigeria. If you wanna dispute that fact, you will have to name someone better than him right now. There are a lot of Godfather's of rap in Nigeria like Modenine and Ruggedman that I will always give respect to; but right now, in 2014, Olamide is the best rapper in the country. His consistency is unparallelled. He keeps dropping hit after hit after hit, and he never seems lose steam.




You might want to put up Ice Prince or Naeto C as contenders for that position, but those two are too one-dimensional with their raps. And also, they have a machine behind that make sure they get the best beats, the best features, and the best marketing. Olamide is a one-man-army, and you can't contest his skills on the mic. He switches from Yoruba to English, without losing the listener. And he has also shown that he is very versatile...rapping fast, slow, switching up his flow to fit into a guest appearance with not just rap artist, but R&B singers, and even Fuji singers too.




For the last 3 years, the kid has been on fire. Every guest appearance he gets on, he kills it. With all the songs you hear him on, you would think he would have spread himself thin by now, but he delivers all the time. The kid is is the most hard-working rapper in the country (he dropped two albums in the space of the last14 months), and definitely the best rapper out right now. He knows the basics of the art of rap; he has clever witty lines; the message is there, and his delivery is always on point. He is just the total Package. From First of All, to Durosoke, to Turn Up, to Dope Money, his hits are endless.
