No, it's pretty much a fact that he is a really good rapper. Your opinion on that subject is worthless.

Underground rap or hip-hop? Their skin colour doesn't make it a different genre.

Meh.....Canibus will always be the biggest underachiever ever in Hip Hop. I would say his verse on Beast from The East is his best work.

Same way I feel, his albums never came close to the hype he had when he first stepped on the scene. And Beasts From the East is my fave Bis verse as well... "an MC so ill I got AIDS scared to catch me"

Talking straight up lyrics I'll take someone like Ras Kass over Canibus any day of the week, even though he's had a pretty disappointing career as well with respect to how hyped he was prior to Soul on Ice.

One of the best verses ever dropped. Canibus peaked on that and Desperados for me. After that, he dropped so good stuff but nothing like that. Desperados might be the only song I would say Nas got completely outshined on in those days.

He got outshined on Affirmative Action too by AZ, Cormega, and maybe Foxy. He had a great verse, but AZ and Cormega went off in my opinion.

A lot of people think AZ had the best verse on Life's a *****. I think Kool G Rap got him on "Fast Life" and Big Pun got him on "John Blaze" too.

Sorry I meant outside of his crew. I would say AZ outshined him on Life's A **** and Mo Money Mo Murder as well....but that's just me.
